I'm glad Microsoft was able to see the future and took Halo from bungie because Halo 4 would have been Halo: Reach 2

Bungie will probably make better games now that microsoft are gone.


I doubt it they signed with craptivision


Yeah but microsoft put serious pressure on bungie to release the games ,particulary halo 3 if i remember correctly before bungie were happy with the finished games.
Now hopefully the pressure is off and they can concentrate on producing some great stuff.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Halo Wars definitely.

They were pressured into releasing halo 3 before they were happy with it because cod 4 modern warfare was being released in november that same year.
I think they pushed halo 3 out in september .

I'd like to see 343i make their own game before I make my opinion on them.

  • 01.13.2012 5:08 PM PDT

Halo Wars.

The way Wars is played is not good for Xbox. I would play it if it were able for PC.

Reach is second to last in my list, but i still like it. Being fair, Reach is over many (not all games) in quallity.

  • 01.13.2012 5:46 PM PDT

Halo 2.

So overhyped. I've never played multiplayer, but I know it is good. However, I have played campaign, and I know the story is horrible. Also vista was a disgrace.

Halo Reach is my second favourite Halo, with CE being the first. Come at me.

Reach.


The potential was/is there, it just got poorly executed.

  • 01.13.2012 6:15 PM PDT

reach failed because they tried to bring NEW equipment and vechiles in a prequel game and it made halo 1 story wise make no since. like why didn't grunts have shields in halo 1. what happen to the what is it "rivet"?. what happen to brutes. what happen to the jackles with 2 plasma shields. what happen to armor abilites. what happen to the DMR. what happen to the different convenant classes etc. i'm so glad bungie is gone from halo. it really show in halo reach that they didn't care about halo anymore. its just like Final Fantasy XIII. "let just make a shooting game and slap the name Halo on it and it will sell". Bungie hasn't ever really been a good dev team to begin with. Microsoft hired more people to work with bungie then what they had and thats how we got the halo games we got. go look at what halo would have been at the 99' mac expo and see how microsoft personal made the game infintly better by hiring people like marty mcdonald to work with them.

1. Worst A.I. I've ever seen in a FPS. You have allies with unlimited health but they are afraid to go into combat. At time I have to melee or grenade them into combat.



your impaired. Have you seen games like brink? I admit reach was sub-par but by default had the best AI. Not like in previous Halo's where enemies were standing around waiting to get shot at


3. Legendary mode is a joke and has been since halo 3. Instead of writing an intelligent A.I. they increase the damage of enemy weapons and give enemies ridiculous health. It takes 2 to 3 sniper rounds/Shotgun blasts to kill grunts and jackles unless you get all head shots WOW!!

5. Elites have the most insane amount of health sticky grenades don't kill them it takes 2 sometimes 3.

6. Hunters no longer have a weak spot. They can take multiple sniper rounds to their weak spot and still not go down.



maybe your not ready to play legendary yet. try the simple stuff first like normal difficulty with maybe a skull or two on








12. No dual wielding. Anytime a game series loses a feature the development team is grabing at straws.



so your one of those guys huh?




The Engine: As much as they try to say "we rewrote the engine to add more stuff yada yada) it's simply not true. Halo reach obviously uses the Halo 3 engine. The reason I say this is the constant Frame rate drops in the campaign at times I notice it slows to around 15 - 20 FPS. Pure laziness.



They imroved on alot in gameplay and as i said above the AI is proof (100% original) but i suppose your to used to dual plasma rifle spamming vs retarded immobile brutes from h3? I may be mistaken but i do not recall seeing any NPC in H3 attempt to board a human vehicle and use it against you, nor was i aware that elites had armor lock in h3 nor was i aware that enemy elites could strafe in h3 (oh wait there wasn't any in h3!!)

/sarcasm


I'm glad Microsoft was able to see the future and took Halo from bungie because Halo 4 would have been Halo: Reach 2.



Bungie signed a ten year contract with MS regarding Halo. They did't 'take' halo from them. Halo was always MS's.

You give 343 too much credit.I hope you realized they both are responsible for the making of this game? Currently 343 is the one in charge of reach and they certainly aren't wowing any crowds. And 343 only added skulls, terminals and improved graphics to CEA. Bungie is still the creator of the actual game and they did a damn well good job of it too 343 should be honored to have been given such a right. Quite a few Bungie employees resigned over to 343 cause god knows what would have happened if 343 was left alone with halo4.

All your statements are retarded, please don't make another thread like this.

Your a troll to the entire damn halo universe.

I'm so happy 343 Industries has taken over. They showed their skills in Halo Combat Anniversary. They bumped it up to 60 fps while giving it the same if not better graphics then reach. This is another point to the fact that Reach uses Halo 3 engine. If they game run 2 engines at one time with one matching and in some point besting the reach graphics shows who the better Dev team is.

Yeah, they showed their skills for hiring OTHER companies to do their work for them. It's called outsourcing. I turn off the new graphics because I don't like shooting and hitting an invisible wall that they badly placed a texture over. It also has one of the most buggy networking models I have ever seen.

H4 is going to be a modified Reach. They don't even know anything about h4 yet, (directly from a 343 employee mind you) as they don't have that information yet. You know, because the companies they hired to make it for them haven't sent it back yet.

I'm stuck between Halo Wars and Reach.

Most people who played Wars were probably FPS folks who strayed over to it because it had "Halo" in the title, and some of them probably haven't played enough RTS to realize how terrible Halo Wars really was in comparison to other representatives of the genre. Halo Wars to an experienced RTS player is baby's first strategy game; it has no depth of play and no need for any real "strategy" at all. It's one dimensional.

It's bad, but then again, Reach is...well, it's Reach. I wish they had at least stuck to the story they laid down in previous games and books; then it would have at least had an interesting campaign. But they couldn't even manage continuity within their own damn series. How sad is that? I at least like SOME aspects of the multiplayer, although it's definitely a downgrade from Halo 3, but I'll just go ahead and say that Reach's campaign was awful and leave it at that.

  • 01.15.2012 9:36 PM PDT

What do you mean by worst? Every release has had tons of changes and innovations.

Halo CE made shooters on a console practical.

Halo 2 was the first successful multiplayer game on a console.

Halo 3 took what made Halo 2 great and improved upon it. It added more features (forge, more custom game options, theater mode, file share, etc). Even with it's shabby netcode, it was a very enjoyable game.

Halo ODST had one of the best campaigns I've experienced in a Halo game. Great campaign and decent firefight mode.

I've only played the Halo Wars demo and I had a blast so idk how the actual game is.

Halo Reach is amazing. MLG in Reach is by far the most fun I've had in a Halo game since ever. Hitscan + perfectly accurate gun + great maps and gametypes = orgasmic.

I hate Halo Reach the most for these reasons:
1. Overpowered DMRs
2. Overpowered sniper rifle with no recoil and high damage to vehicles
3. Overpowered banshee bomb
4. Overpowered tank reload time
4. No Action Sack playlist for 6 months, then a very small amount of Action sack games compared to Halo 3
5. Host switches even when nobody quit
6. Betrayal booting on 1st offence for some, and no boot for others who betray 10 times
7. Ability to destroy friendly vehicles even when friendly fire is off

Everything from Halo 1 was...better

I'm stuck between Reach and Halo 3. The story in Reach wasn't smoothly played out (I remember the first I played Nightfall since the cutscene told me nothing about what we were supposed to be doing I had to open the menu and check the description). Also the plot change was too late, it should have been done much earlier. But halo 3's story was just a mess for me. It was good but the continuity of the story was killing me.

There's always room for you, If you want to be my friend.

Worst halo game= Halo Waypoint
