Subject: Falling Out of Love

I haven't played more than a game or two of Reach in probably a couple of weeks. Ever since I got MW3, I've been playing Survival, and I feel like it's just a lot better than Firefight, given the ranking system and increasing difficulty with each wave, unlike the scripted, temporality of Reach firefight. Yes, ODST had increasing difficulty and endless waves, but the skulls really made things a pain in the ass, and running out of ammo for my SMG and pistol mid round and not being able to replenish was quite annoying as well.

I haven't even gotten on MW3 multiplayer yet, and I don't think I will anytime soon until I play Survival to death, no pun intended.

I really thought it wouldn't be until CounterStrike: Global Offensive that I would say my farewell to Reach out of boredom with it, but I guess I overestimated my rocky and at times, non-existent love affair with this game.

The population on Reach this weekend is the lowest I've ever seen for a Saturday-Sunday crowd, about 20K lower than what I'm used to. No doubt MW3 has stolen the hearts of more than just me, and I'm sure BF3 has something to add to that narrative as well.

I played a couple of games of custom Firefight yesterday though, and I will admit that the customizability of Reach's Firefight is a great saving grace for it, and it makes for some really fun times. I hate to think that I'm getting bored of Halo as a whole game, but I guess I may hop on for some custom Firefight fun every now and then.

So now that MW3 and BF3 have both hit shelves and won over their fan bases, what does everyone feel about Reach? Are you still playing it as if nothing ever happened? Or are you far less chaste to Reach than when it first came out. I feel far towards the latter. What about you guys?

I love Mw3 but I have been getting back into Halo and been switching back and forth between the two.

Maybe when I get to Level 50 in Spec Ops, that may happen. Until then, I'm playing to unlock all the extra equipment and perks

Well he obviously saw you on the other team and knew he would lose so he quit.

You don't play it much anyway. I hear you just quit out of most games.


You're so cool man. I wanna be just as cool as you. BTW I left at the pre-game lobby. The only game that calls it quitting is Reach. Have fun believing in your psychotic inbred philosophy of digital sportsmanship that I have no intentions of holding myself to.

Nice, I have MW3 for both the PC and 360 versions, and I'm working for full Spec Ops rank on both, so this may take some time =P

Sorry, being up for almost 36 hours straight with a few Red Bull in me makes me kind of twitchy and I can't focus.

Quitting out in pre game means you knew you'd get destroyed, so you wanted to save your lolk/d. You care way too much.


And you'd do that why? Up playing Reach for too long trying to up your lolrank isn't good for you, you know. I recommend sunshine and hanging out w/ friends. It may help you.

I find it curious why you care more about my KD than I do, enough to badger me about it in a totally non-related forum. Obviously, you have too much time on your hands, enough so that you think doing this thrilling exposé on me entertains anyone and is a good use of your time.

Life is short, dude. I'd find something more worthwhile to do.

"Falling out of Love" is your subject line.

I would recommend taking your own advice. ;)

How about this, next time you get on, check with me on what playlist I'm searching. Beating up on retards gets boring, and you'd just quit out again - so when I start searching Objective or any playlist, just stay out so that my chances of matching competition are slightly increased.


Your e-peen must be huge, brah...

lol like I care about you and your massive ego. Pet it all you want, you can't adequately compensate for your lack of a life.

You're one sad kid.
