Though then again that annoys people like you more as all the claims about wanting real competitive play normally comes down to wanting to dominate and spoil the game for the other team more than actually enjoying the competitive aspect....


Then again, I find people that want to dump down the game entirely for the "derping" community and take away any kind of online competition to be quite frankly retarded.

Well that makes most developers retarded then as well as all board game makers and every maker of any leisure activity and any one who makes a non competitive game with no way to call yourself a winner and lord it over people.

Way to call Gabe and all the rest of Valve and many other companies retarded.

Also way to call 343 retarded for catering both your 1337ists and the rest of the community and not just doing what bungie did in Halo 3 and bending over backwards to change everything for the 1337ist players and removing the more fun aspects that gave the game its character originally.

Good job from you and the derp crowd to dumb down Reach to the point where it's getting beaten by a bloody soccer game.

343 can only do so much with this game and hopefully they will go back to what made Halo a successful franchise and use Reach as a "to not do" example.

so you don't consider anyone worth while unless they play to win by any means


Sorry, but if you're running out and paying a regular visit to the respawn screen and not helping me win, then yeah, you're pretty worthless to me.

bending gameplay mechanics to favour your team, such as parking warthogs on flags.

That only works if you're playing against derps. Only retards can't overcome that stupid tactic.

Sure your fun is way more important that everyone having an enjoyable game

You know, oddly enough, I didn't start playing games to serve others. Somehow, I strongly doubt you did too.

Strange maybe the 1337ism of the past drove a lot of people away so they haven't bothered coming back yet. But then again the online community wouldn't matter to you as only the game battles one would be important you wouldn't care about the number of members.

So going back to more fun and messing about and far far less MLG and removing randomness, maybe random falling rocks or meteor shows in halo 4.

unless of course you grab the flag that wouldn't be there unless I'd just grabbed it and died resetting the counter before it returns, or getting the flag out the base and through the teleporter for you to capture of course lol.

only retards and derps need to resort to cheap tactics to win, if players were as truly skilled as they claimed they'd have no need to do this.

No though I understand the concept of playing so everyone enjoys it not say punching someone in the face in chess then claiming them being out cold counts as your win (and no I'm not on about chess boxing)

H3 - Top 3 games from it's appearance on the shelves until Reach.
Reach - Going down in the ratings since the first month.

The numbers don't lie.
Obviously Reach did it wrong.

As I said before, fun is subjective.
Hopefully 343 will go back to more H2-3ish styles of gaming where competitive players had their area and derp players had theirs.

Reach is a cluster-blam!- of the both.

  • 11.22.2011 12:08 PM PDT

Reach is definitely a better game than Halo 3, but that's not to say either of the games are good.

Against competent teams, that doesn't happen. You need to slay a significant number of their members in order to facilitate a flag pull.

Incompetent teams like what you're describing I could win against without you derping it up.

Sorry you're so bad at the game you lost the power weapons and map control all in one fell swoop. That's your fault. I'm not going to back off of an advantage to win the game faster so I can get on to some competition that actually knows what they're doing just because it violates your lulzy Xbox code of honor. That's just your scapegoat for being bad.


No though I understand the concept of playing so everyone enjoys it


I play to enjoy myself; not to make sure my competition doesn't get all butt-frustrated when I make a doody all over them. If it wasn't these "cheap tactics" you'd be complaining about a whole different set. You're just mad because you get dominated by better players on a regular basis and so they must be cheap. It's not the fault of your own shortcomings, oh no. It's all our fault for being better than you.

Are you retarded? Are you a bad version of beirut?

COD one of the biggest selling franchises ever.
One of what's considered the most casual of shooters and far from MLG aimed or high level competition aimed only the illusion of it.

Twilight series, one of the biggest film series ever
The Thing from another planet, not a big film but without it the cult remake just called "the thing" would never have been made which revolutionised the horror genre.

Numbers don't lie, people use to to tell lies and make them prove whatever they want.
"there are lies, damn lies then there are statistics"

Well Reach has that there's arena and MLG for the competitive and they are designed for the competitive, while derps can still play the game and not be locked out from unlocks etc due to not playing competitive

Loving the kids these days line.
People want to do what they enjoy and progress not be forced through the meat grinder just to progress all the time.

What you're claiming is people should be forced to play competitive despite no desire to do so feeding you and other competitive players kills and undermining the idea of competitive play. why shouldn't people have choice were not commies here were not given a job and told to do it people have the freedom to choose now.

Let's put all the players in the same hole and hope they all get along together.

Screw casual and screw competitive, CLUSTER-blam!- THEM ALL TOGETHER!!!!

That's bound to work without problems.






Put derp players in derp playlist.
Put competitive players with competitive players. H3 had it way better than Reach and it's casual cluster-blam!-.

Not my experience at all.
the hyper competitive players tend to be in MLG or Arena mostly, I found halo 3 to be much more of a cluster blam than Reach as even social playlists were getting changed due to balance complaints from competitive players.

I saw enough in my time.
again 5 death threats and 2 DDos attacks due to players in Halo 3 matches playing to win at any cost.
So far in reach I've been called out for 1vs1 matches and had them ragequit, no threats on my life if I don't let them win, no people DDosing me to win due to host leaving etc.

you have your arena and MLG, making every playlist change to whatever the newly seen pro balance is isn't the way to do it either as a lot of the pro balances come not from any balance issue but people claiming there's an issue because they can't get easier kills or use the item.

This.
Arena isn't even competitive, and MLG doesn't have a ranking system.

I don't even know if the rest of his post was in English.

I love H3 way better. I think the physics and actual flow of game play were, and are, far better than Reach. I enjoy some aspects of Reach, but when I want to play a game where I don't hear people nerd raging and comparing epeens, I hit up H3.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Hmmmm... depends.

In terms of a competitive multiplayer gameplay: Halo 3
In terms of casual/entertaining stuff, forge, etc...: Reach
