There is just something magical about leaning your head back, letting your eyes roll into the back of your head, and taking a piss while floating in the swimming pool.

I stopped playing Halo Reach several months ago because the Halo experience was just not fun anymore. There are so many people that go into a game and betray you, quit out of the game, and just don't play the type of game that has been selected (i.e. it is a capture the flag game and dumbass' are playing slayer instead).

So, I've been enjoying Gears 3, some Skyrim, and AC Revelations. Today I decided to play some Reach again and see if it had gotten better.

I can tell you that not only did I have a miserable time, but what I have mentioned is even worse. I did two anniversary BTB games, and by the end of the game 4-5 people had been booted for betrayals, and another 5-7 had just quit out. At the end of the game there was 4-5 of us left. LEFT!

I did a Living Dead game and the second the game started two people quit out of the game just like that. The next thing I know I was killed twice in a row by my own team mate. WHAT THE -blam!-!

After those three games I played, I vowed right there that I'm done with Halo Reach for good.

So what is the problem with this game and who is to blame? The -blam!-s or Bungie?

I completely blame Bungie for not controlling the -blam!-s, and not penalizing the -blam!-s enough for being -blam!-s.

No matter what you do you are going to run into -blam!-s, so part of Bungie's job is to not allow them to -blam!- piss off players like myself from getting so angry that I hate their game, and that I don't want to play it anymore.


Take Gears of War 3 for example. If you quit out of a game you get a huge points penalty. That right there is a very large deterient from being a quitting -blam!-. Another huge problem with Halo Reach is when people simply don't play. What does Gears 3 do about that? YOU GET BOOTED FROM THE GAME BY THE AI! -blam!- ya man kick those -blam!-es out. Next thing you know an AI player pops in and plays until a real player can join the game.

Now that's -blam!- awesome especially Epic makes it harder for the -blam!-s to ruin the game you are in.

Bottom line -blam!-s will be -blam!-s if you let them be. I feel Bungie has allowed the -blam!-s to rub themselves all over those like myself who want to play and have fun.


Your day is over Bungie thank God. Not only do I think your formula has become stale (not as stale as Call of Duty but damn close), but you have allowed the -blam!-s to make me hate your -blam!- game.


I just hope 343 will learn from Bungie's mistakes and not allow the -blam!-s to reign supreme.


THE END.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Oh it was posted there too. Don't worry about that. Unfortunately at this point they have either fixed the problems or they have not. We can only pray.

How ever we lived in Halo 3 -_- Its a player problem buddy.

And GoW 3 is still being Actively played?...Gosh


If you read what I posted I know the players are the problem. But Bungie was the bigger problem for not controlling the -blam!-s.

-blam!- it I'm done with Bungie.net. They're yesterdays news. Thanks whoever posted the waypoint forums. I'm done with these forums. I'm done with Bungie.

If you don't want to acknowledge the problems Reach has that's fine. If making your comment that you did helps boost yourself, and makes you feel better about yourself, that is fine too. Knowing that I helped someone with low self esteem feel better makes me feel good. Good day there Lone Wolf.

Your problem was playing Living Dead. Also, yea...Reach is worse now that 343i took over. But, everyone here just about disagrees, so I'll end my opinion now.

How has 343i effected Reach? 343i may have made the anniversary maps, but the formula of the game, how it works and is run is still the exact formula Bungie developed. Unless you can state evidence for your claims don't state anything at all.

The biggest problem is that you only played 3 games, in Anniversary BTB and Living Dead...

Try more games in TU playlists then form an opinion.

You penalize the living hell out of them, and treat them just like the children they are. It really is that simple.

I understand where you are coming from, but I refuse to torture myself anymore today. I'll try out the TU playlist another time, but should I really have too to enjoy the game? No.

Way to have such a low tolerance :/

Maybe you should just loosen-up a little bit. I mean seriously, why get so irritated when someone betrays you? Are you not gonna respawn in another 5 seconds? Does it really matter in the first place? Not the least bit.

Just play and enjoy yourself. If you cant, then stop torturing yourself and stop.

Because a game that can barely peak at 100,000 players should just start reducing those numbers.

Dear OP, play in a Full Party and things like this won't happen.

If you still want to play, FR me. I have a group of friends, we all still play Reach, we're pretty good, and most importantly, we are mature.

  • 01.20.2012 2:28 PM PDT

Well that is what happens when people vote for lame maps / gametypes. Unfortunately Reach doesn't have the most enjoyable gametypes and playlists. Even I've quit certain matches because I hated the map (hemorrhage).

It's not like with halo 3 where I can enjoy the game 100% of the time. Some things in Reach make me just say 'no' and I will gladly quit the match before it begins to get something more fun.

this is what happens when players are rewarded for individual performance and time played.

Well -blam!- put. I almost think Reach was geared to annoying 12 year old kids. Hell, it probably was.
