Subject: Finished.

After roughly about a year of playing Reach I can finally say i'm finished.
After a year of playing here are some things i've learned.
Halo Reach was a step back from Halo 3.
Nothing about the game was better or good at all.
Unskill based matchmaking, Lag every game, Weapon bloom, Armor Abilities, Boring campaign & the list goes on.

I'd rather wipe my ass with pine cones than play Reach ever again in all honesty.

So you think Reach is an actual Halo game, huh? LOL
Jesus! There's a BoB in ma Falcon!

I agree 100%

Yes.......?

I agree with everything except the lag. I dont really get lag. But yea I have fond memories of H3. Just not there anymore for reach.

I have good memories of all the Halo games, but when it comes to Reach the only thing I remember being so awesome was the first week of the beta.

It has hitscan and a single shot main weapon, but thats it.

Agree'd, and the graphics are alot better.

I have many memories of custom firefight and many replays of nightfall. But that is about all of the fun I had in Reach.

Um, I had a lot of fun. That's about it though- just tons of gut-busting-laughs.

While it might not lend itself to be as "competetive" as H3, I think the fact they just let loose on doing all sorts of random stuff brings some flavor to the series, rather than just dishing out the same ol' thing. Yeah, blammin' bloom this or armor lock blocks that...but seriously it was pretty hilarious. To me, I suppose since I'm a bit more laid back and know a toy when i see one, I guess I don't look for perfection in simulation- instead, I go outside and do other things for that...wait, life's not perfect either? Crazy...

If it takes you a year and 1500+ matches to come to the conclusion that a game is bad, perhaps there's something wrong with your conclusion making process or something right with the game?

Carpet....

-blam!- -blam!-.

This is true, but i will give halo a chance for every game, because i played it as my first game after blinx the time sweeper lol

  • 11.05.2011 5:59 PM PDT

What you said is true, however I find a lack of a better game to play, so I shall continue with lolReach... That is until Skyrim XD

"I like knowing the space between my ears is immeasurable."

I think it's funny that people still waste their time posting in the Reach forum about how they hate reach instead of finding something else to do.

Can people really be that bored?
Or that stupid?

Honestly theres like one of these threads every single day it's just pathetic.

If you didn't like it, then don't play it, don't talk about it and don't post about it. Simple as that you just move on...

But I guess it's just got you so vexed since your life is so terrible and ruined even more so by a video game.

Grow up people, it's a -blam!- video game.
And I kinda like it, I think it's a step up from halo 3 because of how you can spawn with abilities, even if it's just sprint ( which is becoming my personal fav)

Just play something else.
Post... somewhere else.
Who really cares that you want to whine about something?
I swear to god there should just be a sticky thread called
"WHINE PISS AND MOAN ABOUT WHY REACH SUCKS"
it'd get like 50000000000 posts daily.

You obviously don't love the Halo series as much as a lot of people. Halo 2 was almost perfect. Most fun I've ever had on a video game. Halo 3 was a bit of a step back, but an easy recovery. Reach was a bigger step back. There's a lot of more obvious things they could have added in to keep the game fresh instead of AA's. It hurts to see a game you've grown up with become degraded when it was so close to being what I'd call "perfection". Maybe you should get a blog; it's more suitable for talking about yourself.
