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

Tell me HOW this is fun, rolling over 5,670 times. Multi-team used to be one of the most chill playlists but now it's nothing but Warrant Officer grade 56's voting for Rocket Hog Rage on Hemorrhage.

I have made a thread asking people to explain the appeal behind AR starts to me. Now someone please explain "Flip over 890 times per-minute" race.

Thank you for your time.
And the attempt to replace Rocket Race with a mongoose failed miserably, as that was actually fun.

It's gametypes like that that make me wish Multi Team was still 6 teams of 2 or 4 teams of 2.

I actually like it. Being passenger and EMPing enemies, trying to time Rockets just right with the turret, or Driving while avoid mines and showing your driver prowess are quite fun.

That said, Multi-Team was butchered with Reach and I miss Rocket race from Halo 3.

Does flaming people on forums count as an esport?

I play Multi-Team to go +30 or +40, not to go +3 and flip 9 million times because all the Warrant Officers don't know how to shoot anything other than an automatic rocket turret.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

It should be 4 or 5 teams of two

They changed it to test maps that never existed and no one will change it back.

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

It's only the best Warthoggin' gametype evar!

I kid, I like to be the only one with a Hog.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

I prefer to not vomit perfectly good eggs and bacon I thank you...not tasty the second time around :(

I find rocket hog race fun but I agree that it is voted for too much.

  • 01.27.2012 9:26 PM PDT

Multi Team needs to go back to 6 teams of 2, that was fun, and there wasn't any Rocket Hog Race crap than.

Hog race is terrible...

  • 01.27.2012 9:29 PM PDT

I don't mind it since I'm pretty good at keeping the hog on all 4 wheels when it flips. Some people pick it so they can get kills. They emp the hog, shoot a rocket to flip it, and then blast the 3 people when they jump out.

It's only fun once you let go of your k/d and your win/loss. It's just crazy mindless fun. I liked playing it from time to time, but playing RHR every game sounds a bit much.

  • 01.27.2012 9:41 PM PDT

RHR is fun. If you have a team that can't shoot or drive well. Then it gets to be less fun.

It's the only playlist that I like to drive vehicles.

spiral out

DMRs on Countdown got beaten by RHR 10-2 today. What was going on in 10 peoples' heads, I dont know.

I must agree with you, that is the most stupidest gametype ever made.

I don't know what Bungie was thinking on even MAKING an Achievement for that... Seriously, maybe they wanted to bother the community.

MultiTeam was good as you said, not it sucks with that thing.

You can't be serious.

To the Death! was the dumbest gametype. Followed by Dino Blasters. Then maybe Splockets.

It's not fun even then. It's Grifball-type fun.

But you play them in a playlist that are for them, RHR shouldn't be in Multiteam.

For The Lulz is a worthier cause than For The Win.

From the skies to the ground, I'm the one that'll reign destruction down on you from behind the wheel and the flight stick. Keep your eyes on the rear view mirror, or you may be eating exhaust aside the road, riddled with holes.

My sniper is hungry for souls.

If at first you fail, fail again so that you succeed by wrapping your fail around the continuum into the win zone.

RHR was fun at first, but then it became this on infinite loop.

Of course I wish there was a racing playlist with mongoose and hog variants, but I think the warthogs in reach flip over too easy in general and when you give everybody rockets and grenade launchers, star fox quotes might just never end.
