The thing that I see is reach is an amazing game, but has some problems like most games do. It might not be the perfect halo game but in my opinion its one of the best.

Have you noticed that on the acual game itself hardly anyone complains? Albiet, there are a good amount of people who do complain elsewhere. People dont see the big picture and hate on a game for minor/unimportant reasons. Lets say Im not good with Reach multiplayer. Because of this, I call the game bad, and dont play it anymore.

I hate to bring up COD but the same thing happens to it too. People dont like something in the game, and declare that they dont like the game as a whole. Personally, I dont like COD multiplayer, but I like Zombie mode. I wont say the game is completely terrible, but there are certain things I dont like about it.

Halo. Lets say I dont like the addition of armour abilities or equipment in the matchmaking multiplayer. But then I love campaign, forge, and firefight. The game is not bad, just certain aspects of it are not applicable to my liking.

3rd person examples aside, I like Reach. And thats it, an opinion. Whether or not you like reach or even halo itself, its all a game and its all entertainment. And with entertainment comes personal choice and opinions.

I'm surprised there aren't more games that lets the community create custom content like Forge.

I've only heard people complain about community maps every-now-and-then or becoming infected.

When I play Halo Reach matchmaking, I hardly ever see/hear people complaining about the game. Im not saying that no one complains, just that here on the forums people take a more... negative approach to the game.

I realized this a long time ago.

Or it's because nobody ever puts their mic in anymore or people that hate this game actually STOP playing it.

And thats their opinion. Reach isnt perfect, not by a long shot. But there are people who DO like it.

Reach is highly polished and has a ton of content.

Unfortunately on the multiplayer side (which like it or not is the driving force of the franchise)... things kind of fell apart with IMO terrible design choices.

It still has its fans, but this game undeniably is the biggest disappointment multi wise, which is evident with its fast and drastic drop of online player population.

All the pieces are in place to make an amazing multi game though IMO. With a few teaks, which apparently 343 is attempting to give us... this game could still be salvaged.

Note that this is strictly my opinion, as an old school Halo fan. I know most Halo fans share my opinion, but a lot do not and like the game just fine. No problem there. The problem is past Halo games were able to satisfy both these crowds... this one wasnt able to.

Any changes now are too late. People have left this game long ago and will probably never come back.

I agree with you completely. I just feel that even though there are problems in the multiplayer, there are still good things in it aswell. I'm an old school Halo fan aswell.

I do hope that 343i can turn it around though. Its a shame that a game this good cant be pushed a little further to become a great game.

The time to act would of been 8 months ago, when the population was still high.

Well, at least their trying now. I love Halo and always have. It hurts me a bit inside everytime I realize how many people hate Reach.

There are times I wish Halo 3 was still the last Halo, but we cant change that.

Reach has passed the "no-return" point long ago.

I somewhat disagree. The game still has some potential.

But with new games such as BF3, GOW3, and MW3 coming out this year it would be a miracle if Reach was revitalized.
