Subject: Halo 3 BTB > Reach BTB

I've never really been a fan of BTB so I don't mind either way.

The range is vastly over-exaggerated. Outside of the aim-assist range even the best players can't consistently cross map on big maps. Plus that's where forge comes in and we use common sense to rework the cover on maps to allow for better movement without bloom.

Changing one thing by itself breaks stuff, but tweaking the maps as well as increasing movement speed all go towards more missed shots but not due to randomness.

Halo 3 is better in general...

Silence fills the empty grave, now that I have gone
But my mind is not at rest, for questions linger on

There is one part where Reach excels, and that is netcoding and host selection. The BR was unreliable as hell when you played on intercontinental host.

But the maps, gametypes, vehicle play and overall balance was far better.

Im' a ninja

big team battle should be all dlc required or atleast noble and defiant or at least noble or at least just anniversary or at least one map pack !!!

The losing team in default always pulls host. I spend more time blackscreen than actually playing most games

I agree, Goat. Sandtrap was one of the maps I enjoyed the most. I never understood why they didn't bring it back in Reach.

Lieutenant in the ArchAngels clan. Contact tidalrider for information regarding joining.

Reach's BTB is comprised of cross-map DMRing and vehicle whoring, mostly the Banshee and Wraith. Not to mention theres also BTB teams that are Forerunner+ and it's mostly crappy community maps. Halo 3 BTB forever, I don't care how much of a lagfest it is.

I was hoping for a waterworks remake. Forging one is impossible.

At least they brought back Headlong. Halo 2's legacy lives on.

Standoff would have been much preferred..

I can't imagine standoff with hitscan DMRs. IMO it'll just ruin it.

And Camo will be gone too cause lolDefaultReach removed powerups.

Standoff would suck.

You make many good points. I really posted that without thinking at all. It was more based on my nostalgia and love for the map. Waterworks would be much better with reach mechanics. I also think Avalanche would be fun in Reach.

But isn't Camoflauge still placeable in forge like Overshield?

It is but the latest word is that only MLG can use camo in MM.
