Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

Go play High Level Reach.


I play in MLG a pretty decent amount and, though I am not that great in it, the netcode's a HELL of a lot more consistant than Halo 3's was on its best days.


So, you give me Halo 3 Swat, and then use MLG Reach as an example of how it's better than Halo 3? MLG Reach basically removes everything "Reach".

High Level Reach, as in anything but MLG, is laughable at best.

My point was never about how good/bad the gameplay is, it was saying the netcode is better in Reach. I gave you SWAT because I know that not only are BR shots dropped, but they won't kill the Elites that people will inevitably use in that mode in less than three magazines.

The sometime "iffy" hit registration (I never really had THAT bad of a problem with it) is no where near as retarded as bloom, armor lock, jetpacks, OP Grenades, bad matchmaking due to the lack of a 1-50, slow movement speed, low jump height, etc. The list goes on and on, and the only thing you got is the Halo 3 hit registration? That wasn't even always a problem.

Bad maps, poor spawn system, sword block, no bleed through. I can go on forever.
Eric and I actually had a page solely dedicated to Reach's problems.

I loved Halo 3 but high level squad battle was just fail.

Halo. A shame Bungie stopped support for this game when Reach came out (matchmaking, lag etc). Forced me to play Reach >_>

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Wrong and wrong. Halo: Combat Evolved is still the best.
Halo CE grenade spam was so horrible. Most people that say this say it out of nostalgia.

Or maybe because CE was the first Halo game, there were no standards. So maybe, nobody really noticed that grenade spam.

Sure it was. Sure it was.

*Is having an almost even DMR battle with an enemy, but ultimately wins with downed shields. Enemy dies. 2 seconds later a bullet comes out of nothing and headshots me.*

I think, "oh, it's just lol Reach's crappy host selection or my own lag."

My three pals in party chat that just arrived to assist all pipe up, "Dude, you got killed by that dead guy you just killed, we saw a bullet come from his dead body."

Happens about six or seven times a day.

If you want even better netcode and detection, play Infection.

idk i never played halo 3 but halo reach is awesome maybe some problems that could be fixed but its cool anyways for me atleast

  • 11.20.2011 9:07 PM PDT

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

I like both, but have not played Halo 3, since REACH has been released.

REACH lacks in the map department, hopefully HALO CEA has ressolved this.

Halo 2 had the best Multi-Player Maps.

That page dedicated to Reach's problems is only a list of changes traditional Halo fans do not accept. Most of those problems are not even close to game-breaking. Reach is an excellent game that unfortunately has a fanbase of mixed opinions. If the game was not considered as a "Halo" game, it wouldn't have so many mixed views solely on gameplay alone.

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.
