I got all excited when I put in Reach for the first time in months and was greeted with a Title Update and a message about how the community is shaping the future and 343 is "just getting started" and stuff. But then I play a few Rumble Pit matches, and nothing has changed!

There's still bloom. There's still falling damage. There's still sword block. AL is still overpowered as -blam!-....

I noticed the TU Beta playlist and tried that, but all it was was crappy 0 bloom DMR gametypes. Everything else was still the same! I don't care about the "pro" DMR, I want to see the AR have no bloom! I'm sick of emptying 2 full clips into a guy then smacking him and he doesn't die! Honestly, for all the people that love the DMR so much and think it takes so much skill, they should just remove all DMR gametypes from the regular playlists and give those -blam!-s their own playlist.

Point is, there's still no reason to continue playing Reach with MW3 on the horizon and good games like Black Ops already out. I hate to be a hater, but this TU is retarded and it doesn't nearly deliver on anything I had heard.

Instead of holding the trigger, shoot in bursts, and then you wont use so many bullets. It's very basic stuff.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting. I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing. Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication.

Nothing in the TU playlist has been implemented into any other playlist. Also, if you are taking two full clips to kill a guy with an AR, either your internet is a potato, or you are incapable of aiming.

This, and maybe OP is trying to AR snipe with full auto.

Not really ruined, just changing back to what Halo used to be, not really sure if it's the right thing to do but I'm up to seeing where it takes Reach.

So your point is that the TU did not do anything? It did not change Halo Reach to the better?

Well, I think it was really nice to see how Halo Reach would have played without bloom and with bleed-through. It gave me a new perspective in this whole bloom/no blooom war.

Sometimes I want to play with bloom and sometimes without it.

But if you do not like Reach before/after the TU, it is most probably because you like other games more, so play those games instead, if you think they are better.

Or maybe you can tell me how you think Halo Reach should play?What you would like to add/remove to make it a better game.
And then maybe you would like it more and play it more.
