1- It was all business, I did love the chatter in the headset radio, that was fun to listen to, and very diff than CE or H2
Agreed. It fit the mood perfect.
2- There was virtually no sense of humor at all in the dialogue. The fun of CE and H2 is the dialogue, and it was like this was from a different universe.
Agreed. I was expecting Sgt Stacker to say some funny lines on Exodus (I consider him to be some what like Johnson), but he didn't deliver. However the ODST's have a bit of humor. But overall it was lacking.
3- The covies didnt even look like covies in alot of ways, and they certainly never seemed to pose much of a threat to the player, I only saw his shield totally exhausted three times during the whole view. The enemies barely put out any rounds, other than the vehicles.
Disagree. Only the grunts look weird, I dislike their methane tanks. Also the enemies definitely shoot, A LOT.
4- The player knew the map, the best sniping or firing positions, it was fun to watch that, but as with all speed runs, long on running, short on combat (at times).
All speed runs have that.
5- It just seemed to lack the feel....I did like the up close and personal feel which is more in line with CE, something H2 can lack at times. But overall, it seemed very out of place or off kilter when comparing it to CE or H2.
Am I nuts or what?
Agreed. I like the feel Reach has, but it doesn't surpass CE or H2.
Overall you are not nuts. You have some of the most legitimate complaints I've read so far.
