If anyone's to blame about reach's failure, it's us, the community! to make reach good they made the beta, we all said that we loved A.A, and now we hate them, (I still like them) but people say ,"bungie don't listen to the community!" but we, the community had the chance to change reach, we did and hated it, but there was no going back.
overall Reach's failure= community
We didn't -blam!- at the plasma repeater being the first actual useful Covenant weapon in a long time, but it got a nerf to the point of being useless.
It was generally agreed that the Plasma Launcher's tracking was just a tad OP. It got the hammer dropped on it.
We complained that vehicles were like paper mach'e. They got upgraded to cardboard status.
We complained that bloom was too punishing. Bloom got changed around so that it was random. Our fault there, but still.
AL was overpowered. They gave it a slap on the wrist and now it's an annoying pause button.
Grenades were nukes. They got down-graded to mini-nukes.
The pistol worked fine. It got a nerf for no reason.
People complained about the new melee system. Nothing changed.
And last but not least, there was supposed to be weapon variety. Most covenant stuff got a nerf to make them "unique" compared to their UNSC counterparts, but all this really did was make them useless. The DerpMR got some buffs while some other UNSC stuff got nerfed, so now all you ever hear in MM is the steady tick tick tick tick tick tick of DMR spam on every map.
Reach's Failure= One half community, one half Bungie
