As long as there are enough people in the Anniversary playlists for me to find matches this is mostly irrelevant to my interests.

I refuse to be happy until Team Arena is 4SK DMR, Increased Speed/Jump Height/Etc, Sprint/Hologram only, and has at least Beaver Creek in it. Oh, and no bloom.

first off, halo reach will never die, not until xbox 360 live service goes down, that's just a simple fact.

second, halo reach core design was not to bring in new players, it was to give the old players, the guys who enjoyed the halo series a great finisher, it succeeds in that regard alot more than you think.

third, modern warfare 2 "success" is because kids will always wanna "play" soldier, thats the entire COD success, kids will be idiots, judging a games life by it's population will always fail because of trends.


Are you trying to play stupid?

No need for sprint with 120 speed, although it might be usable with 110. There's no difference in strafing between 110 an 120, just the fact that with 120 you don't need sprint and you shouldn't have it.

  • 09.27.2011 12:18 AM PDT

Anyone?

  • 09.27.2011 12:20 AM PDT

I like your spawn can I have it?

People will still play. But if you look at the other games. Halo 2 was basically the dominate game on the Xbox. Halo 3 was also the same. mainly because not a lot of big titles was around.

Now days big titles is coming out really often. So of courseReach will see a drop in numbers.

Wanting all AAs gone from Arena is too much to ask for.

Itd be like wanting all equipment gone from TS in H3. Too much to ask for.

I can live with Sprint/Hologram only.

Then push for 110 speed and sprint for Arena only, while having MLG with 120 and no sprint.

LOL NO! Halo 3 had a higher population than CoD4, at least according to the Major Nelson charts posted. It remained in 2nd place even when MW2 came out.

Why, then, did Reach fall to 3rd faster than Halo 3 fell to 2nd?

Sorry, dumb asses. Reach sucks FAR more than any Halo out there. I don't know why I've played it so much. Probably because I've been with Halo since CE, and I like the atmosphere that the Halo universe gives. But Reach sucks. There's no denying it.

1. mw3
2. bf3
3. gow3
4. skyrim?
5. black ops
6. mw2
7. Reach


This is about perfect here. I agree. Bf3 is really hyped So I'm sure it will be number 2 esp. after the beta we will find out. A lot of people didn't realise it exhisted. This year imo it is one of the most hyped up games except for skyrim.

Don't worry, Halo Reach will return to normal by new year. As you are most likely aware, most major releases occur at the end of the year. This means that over the past few months the population count in each game is proportional to the current fan base.

Most people tend to stick to one or two franchises and this means that the people who were playing Halo Reach before Gears of War 3 was released, will still play Halo Reach. If you think that Modern Warfare 3 will *kill reach, you couldn't be more wrong. In fact Modern Warfare 3 will *kill Modern Warfare 2 if it succeeds. Similar to how Halo Reach *killed Halo 3, and Halo 3 *killed Halo 2.

So unless 343 does something completely stupid, Halo Reach will not be *killed until the release of Halo 4.

*Note: The words kill and killed are referring to the population being permanently dropped by a significant amount.

The Halo 3 and Reach population are quite similar as of now... but yes you are right.

Please...stop getting butthurt when I noscope you from the passenger seat of the vehicle I'm riding in :D

This is why I don't play Arena. Too many kids complain about what settings it needs to be, and it's only settings they think will make MLG better. Not everyone likes MLG settings, so if you want Arena, it needs to stay as Vanilla Reach with the only exception of no Bloom for the purpose of consistancy.

Go play MLG if you want it and deal with it's settings until they change it; quit tryin to copy 1 playlist into another.

Okay, listen, we should get our stories straight, all right? If anyone asks, and no one's gonna ask, don't worry, but if anyone asks, tell them as far as you know, the last time you checked, everyone looked pretty much alive, all right? Not dead.

Reach still has a larger skill gap then CoD games
I could go on forever on why that is not true.


Good luck getting people to believe you. I have tried and failt.

ATTENTION MODERATORS. My latest ban (14-day ban from Qbix89) is not legitimate, take a look for yourself. Please review this before considering me a "repeat offender". Thank you.

Seriously... why did you bump this?
