The playlist where true talent reigns supreme. Try out gunning 2 full shield opponents while being one shot in default. Doesn't work unless you have the Godly 3sk pistol

Yea it feels good. First thoughts are that I wish it had no bloom at all, but it's hard to say after one game. For the first time in a while, I actually kind of want to play Reach.

I agree.

Finally, Reach has good maps.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

I agree, but I still think there are better options for custom games. The CEA Magnum still has ridiculous bullet spread unfortunately.

Technically they aren't even Reach maps.

Please stop making me want to spend more money this season. X_X

The new playlist is definitely an improvement. I see one glaring problem. There is still bloom, its better but how could they miss such an easy thing... remove bloom and insert recoil. Oh well, still much better,

It is. My only problem is the clip size. Its not a big deal on Damnation, Prisoner, Beaver Creek, but on Hang Em' High. It gets annoying running out of Pistol ammo.

Some of the spawns as well are weird. Prisoner- Spawning at OS behind someone.

Thats a bungie move.

I've noticed more and more the effects that the new gun has on the gameplay. I didn't play Halo CE very hardcore, more just custom games with my little brother (i.e. tank battles on Blood Gulch and sniper battles on Boarding Action) so I never got the feel for the pistol.

In Reach however, I'm learning that those who can time their shots perfectly will win 99% of the time. I've gotten a few triples by using one clip just by hitting every shot.

Also, the gametypes are so much better than default.

LOL when you run out of ammo on Hang 'em High you're pretty much SOL. That's when I go rambo with my shotgun and needler

The difference between AC and default is that when you are playing against 'retards', you can't out DMR both of them thanks to Bloom and increased kill times.

That's why I like AC. It brings it back to Halo 3 days where you could outBR 2-3 people

I like it because it punishes you for mistakes. For example, played the TU with sprint. Someone sprinted at me with a shotgun, got shot, and ran away. Mistakes like that you can get away with.

lol Shotgun is useless in AC. 3sk beats you before you can get close.

you can in default aswell, i've been chased on 1 shot and taken out 3 people before, same in classic but it just seems be harder to pull of in default.

3sk actually reduces the skill gap, any one can fire of a quick 3 shots to the head with out failure, even people new to this game, it really is now down to who shoots who first which is kind of annoying and alot more geared towards the casuals.

though, if magnums where map pickup only it would be just fine and if i remember right, that is how it was in combat evolved aswell.

  • 11.17.2011 9:15 AM PDT

I love classic, it's awesome and so easy since 99% of reach players never played classic Halo in their life.

You remembered wrong, the CE pistol was a starting weapon.

xbox or PC
also, wasn't it the pro gametype that spawned you with the magnum?

Yes, but you spawned with it in regular slayer too.

3sk in CE created the biggest skill gap of the series. The Anniversary version is about as close as we can get without actually playing the original multiplayer.
