RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

Out of game Bungie added a lot of features that can help future installments of this series.

New Forge
Active Roster
The File System

In game however Halo: Reach departs fiercely from it's previous installments. How much it departed was actually not obvious to me until I went back to Halo 3 last night. It was astounding.

Faster movement and higher jumps.
No sword block in all playlists and has Sword duels.
No easy mode grenades.
Better textures on surfaces.
More shiny and colorful.
Warthogs don't flip or die from spawning weapon fire.
The tanks can shoot faster.
The tanks can take more hits.
The Banshee isn't a glass cannon that has flip like crazy to survive.
There is a Chopper.
Rockets have a much smaller blast radius
No AAs
The Ghost can actually kill things
You can actually have your bullets go where you aim.
No mute ban lol

I'm probably only going to play Halo 3 until we get to see what 4 is like.

Goodbye Reach forum.

If you would like to know more about Mythic difficulty please go to this thread. Thank you.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

What Halo 3 are you playing? The ZB DMR is infinitely better for this than Halo 3's BR and its awful spread.

It's still more accurate than bloom DMR. Which is everywhere besides MLG and ZB.

Now refute my other claims.

Salute me. Or... or, you know, stuff.

It's unfortunate how long we've had to wait for a ZB DMR, though. This crippling mistake on Bungie's part is still being treated with band-aids from 343, and by the time the entire game plays as well as its predecessors we'll have all moved on to Halo 4.

Honestly though that neutral assault game we play last night reminded me of why I like H3 so much more. Everything just feels so much more fluid.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Bungie improved on some things outside of actual gameplay.

I'm not saying I disagree with you, I'm just saying that your original argument for going back to Halo 3 is pretty thin if it is only what you mentioned in the OP.

My biggest complaints with Reach changes were with the vehicles.

Personally, I liked how vehicles were made weaker in many ways and made map control on foot more important.

However, I hate how armor lock makes it a bad idea to in to splatter and how you can blow up with full shields just from repeated damage to your vehicle.
