RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

How can this still be going?

Yes it is. Anyone with half a brain can see that it is. Anyone that is arguing to say that it isn't has less than half of a brain.

What about SMG starts in Halo 2 and the emphasis on dual wielding?

Along with the massive aim assist and magnetism. So Halo: Reach gets to tie with Halo 2.

I still had a lot of fun in both games though.

When will anyone learn?

It's the PEOPLE who are casual and competitive. The game itself stays neutral.
wow.

It's true. Calling a game competitive or casual is like calling a murder weapon the murderer itself.

You're right Akamia

Guns are tools of magic and sunshine and definitely weren't made with the sole purpose of killing other humans.

He's saying the gun isn't the one that kills people. People kill people. If guns didn't exist, people would simply find other ways.

That made 2 casual? I still recall a far larger skill gap than in this game, throughout every playlist. Unlike Reach.

The gun's purpose is still killing. I've never seen anyone experience positive effects from receiving a gunshot wound.

When guns start curing cancer then I'll agree that guns are a neutral implement.

I believe I've heard of tranquilizer guns.

Those aren't made for killing.

Also, there's a taser. It's for stunning.

Well said, this is my core belief as it concerns what makes something competitive.

If a stick was placed in the middle of a circle and two players were instructed to retrieve it first at all cost, this would be a competitive competition.

Precisely, although that last part is somewhat redundant; If it's not competitive, it's not really competition. But nevertheless, what you say is true.
The "competitive" portion was to insinuate a hightened state of desire to achieve within the competition which as you stated inffers a competitive nature as a defualt setting anyways, forgive my redundancy. =)

Team Slayer in the 40-45, because no one around a 46 was legit in 06, Team Hardcore (MLG) Lolz here, but Snipers, etc.

So being put into an unconscious state is the most positive effect you can have after being shot?

Okay guns are still bad.

So we all agree that every Halo game can be competitive.

Reach is the easiest (most casual friendly, so to speak) Halo.

My service records give enough proof. I'm legit trash in Halo 3, but I can stand my ground in Reach.

maybe you just got better?

As my stats are relatively the same as halo 3.
I was wondering if you played CE and 2 prior to Halo 3?

yep, been playing since CE

Because nobody can provide proof.

Yes it is. Anyone with half a brain can see that it is. Anyone that is arguing to say that it isn't has less than half of a brain.Show me something besides your opinion that shows that Reach is more casual friendly than Halo 3. No using another persons opinion, provide hard numbers that show anything that even suggest what you believe is true.

Idk

Halo 2 has AR starts while Reach has jetpack/awful map selection/imbalanced starting spawns/etc so Halo 2 gets TS. Reach gets MLG though because of the single-shot DMR that's perfectly accurate and perfectly symmetrical maps. Reach definitely gets snipers because lol sweep sniping in Halo 2.

I still suck at Halo 3.


Reach is a piss easy game, hence "casual"
/thread

what playlist were you playing in halo 3?
what playlist were you playing in Reach?

Go play arena at high level onyx and then say it is easy. Or if you want a challenge, play against good people in the mlg playlist.

MLG is the only place where there is a skill gap.

Marine Corps.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.
