"In Halo 3 not all 50's were good players, but all good players were 50's."

Your opinion is invalid.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

This.

And the grenade launcher makes me feel happy on the inside, even if it can be inconsistent from time to time.

The incredible voice acting and repetitive music.

"The covenant are on Reach! We have wounded!"

My god, this was the greatest sound clip ever recorded. So much emotion was delivered, and I see how it was included.

I'm still confused. Does the net code not deal with host migrations and host selection? Because those are still frequent and lengthy, way worse than MW2 still, and almost worse than Halo 3 even.

The lag's not as glaringly noticeable as it was in previous installments. I have a lot less issues with shots connecting in Reach than I did in Halo 3 and Halo 2. Even foreign hosts are generally bearable with this netcode. When I actually go back and play Halo 3, I rage because of the lag that runs rampant in that game now. I'm not sure if it's an increase in foreign hosts or what, but it's terrible compared to Reach.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

The way it's sitting there, on the floor, staring at Dead Space 2 in jealousy because I'm paying more attention to it.

How does that game measure skill? I was ranked 5th in terms of skill for a while according to their in-game leaderboard. I lol'd when I saw it.

The Elites. Much more classic like to the CE elites. Wish I could play as them in MM. Been playing Halo 3 because I'm tired of being a spartan and my fellow reachers won't play customs with me :(

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

Plasma Grenades.

Fails.

Please don't hype for games...
They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

Forge.

The active roster.

Nerd used to be a 4 letter word, now it's a 6 figure income.

The grass.

Its a lovely shade of green, and I like the color green.

Other than that, nothing. I loved Firefight Limited, thats gone, so -blam!- this game.

"I'm not going to lie to you, Lieutenant. You're stepping into some dangerous shoes the rest of the squad would rather leave unfilled. Me, I'm just happy to have Noble back up to full strength. I read your files, even the parts ONI didn't want me to see. I'm glad to have you're skill set. But we're a team. That lone wolf stuff, it stays behind. Got it?" "Yes, sir." "WELCOME TO REACH."

Would definitely have to be the atmospheres. The cool, rainy weather on Winter Contingency is what really drew me in to this game, the burning orange world and icy blue underground CASTLE base in the Package, the dark, grim setting in The Pillar of Autumn... amazing.

We are the Brave
We are the Courageous
We! Are! The! Army Strong!

The super balanced maps for Infection. There are almost no overused camping spots that put the humans at an advantage.
