Reach has ended my 5 year addiction to Halo. Thanks Bungie!

due to godawful netcode.Calling the Reach netcode bad..
Get the hell out.
Oh, you disagree? That's funny, I can't seem to think of any other titles that go to a blackscreen for five minutes to fix routing problems when somebody quits the game. Only Halo does that. I love these games, but that doesn't change the fact that the netcode used has been consistently poor.
Tell me, do you know anything about netcode that would lead you to dispute my statement, or are you just driven by some strange need to defend every aspect of this game? Because if you really liked this game, I think you'd just admit that it possesses a couple of flaws rather than try to hold it to an unrealistic standard in the face of fact.
You don't have to have knowledge of networking, the internet or game programing to recognize good or bad netcode.
In Halo 3 my shots don't register. In Halo Reach, they do. In every other FPS I play compared to Reach it doesn't get much better. So, reach has a perfectly fine netcode. And how long it takes to switch host is kind of irrelevant.
