Lol. Halo 3 AR >>>>>>>>>>>> Reach AR

Also saying that BR was too strong in Halo 3 doesn't excuse the DMR for being too strong.

All the weapons should be able to kill in a reasonable amount of time. Not just some of them.

If you truly think this sequence of words is correct, then you have never truly experienced Halo.

Halo 2 was about running around the map with BRs and plasma grenades.

Halo 3 was about the same thing, but equipment mixed it up a little and the removal of hitscan on most weapons made it more stradegy based then skill based.

Halo Reach was the natural progression.

Your opinion is invalid.

There's no way you aren't just trying to fck with people. Every single one of your ideas so far has been the exact opposite of good/intelligent players' opinions.

Give me ONE example of a bad change made from Halo 3 to reach.

Edit:

Don't put words in my mouth. It was MORE about strategy then H2, but not JUST strategy, also skill. It was a much better balance between thought and action then the pure murderfest that was H2.

hi


Posted by: tmlord95
far and away the best campaign in the series.

reach probably had the worst campaign. no scarab fights, no caracter development, pointless objetives, and your CO makes you do all the work. great.

Jet pack, Armor Lock, Active Camo, Horrible maps, Paper-mache vehicles, Useless AR and Plasma Repeater, Bloom, Rank based on play time instead of skill, Arena having Armor abilities, huge blast radius on grenades, Replaced Beam Rifle with a weapon that does as much damage as a flashlight, changed banshee, lower movement speed and jump height, non-ranked MLG playlist, Adding sections of outer space to maps, Can't go into theatre with more than one person...

I can go on if you'd like.

dont forget most of the maps that shipped with the game gave red spawn a huge advantage if not a guaranteed win.

Vehicle health

Minor controversial change. You can usually get a pretty good idea of the vehicles health from it's condition.

Bloom

Best change in reach. Ended the bull-blam!- long-range domination form H2/3

Slow movement speed

Armor abilities, maaaaan. things change.

Low jump height

OH MY GAWD I CAN'T JUMP HALFWAY TO THE MOON THIS SUCKS

Armor lock

I would agree with you early on, but this was the only change I liked about the TU 343 gave us. Armor lock WAS preatty broken at launch.

Jetpack

OH NOES I CAN SWIVEL MY STICK LEFT/RIGHT AND GET HEADSHOTS

Camo

... are you seriously complaining about camo? No, get out. if anything it is under powered and you can get easy kills on those who use it if you have ANY spacial awareness.

Dropshield

...Is a nerfed version of the bubbleshield form Halo 3 and encourages workign with your team instead of lone-wolfing.

Grenades with increased blast radius and shorter fuse

Avoid them. Frags are now a decent option compared to plasmas, OH NO!

No bleedthrough which screws over all automatic weapons and makes double beatdown the better option

That is the opposite of what "No Bleedthrough" does. Learn to wait for shields to pop.

Putting Uncagd in MM

I'll give you this one.

Changing the opening spawns of Reflection

Oh no, a remake isn't identical BURN THE MAPPER ON A CROSS!

Yeah I did.

Swordbase
Powerhouse
Uncaged
Reflection
Pinnacle

All these maps are extremely unbalanced in their opening spawns.

Only one of them got removed from any playlist for its unfairness.

I believe the highlight in this sea of stupid is where you think that no bleed through helps automatic weapons.

I mean I have to hand it to you. You have basically summarized all the stupid that has been in this forum since Reach was released and most of it I'm pretty used to.

But

To have one single person concentrate this essence of stupidity into a single post like this.

Bravo

Bravo

Also. None of what you said negates how bad those things I named are.

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?

Is the small number of fans who hate change.

Reach was frankly brilliant and the utimate game in the series. Balanced, fun, deep multiplayer and far and away the best campaign in the series.

Yet all you see on the forum is people whining and -blam!-ing about how thye can't kill people across the map with the DRM in 5 seconds because of bloom, or how armor abilities RUINED Halo.

If you don't want change, go play COD. Get out of my game.
Everything you have ever said in your entire life is now invalid.

Good day.

This is when I have a problem with Bungie forums because they rarely have any facts behind their post, many of them are blind posts.

""Is the small number of fans who hate change.""
^^^
If that was true, they why is Reach the worst of all the Halo games when it comes to players online? Don't say it's because they have other games competing because every game has in the past. Also, the beta itself scared thousands way from the series, it wasn't other games.

Brilliant: Good ideas, but horrible executed. The bloom aspect makes sense in games that don't have shields and higher rates of fire. Better solution would have been just slow the rate of fire. AA, again, okay idea but to many maps were created based off AAs not the game.

Balanced: The maps themselves were created for AAs and they are boringly lopsided. Swordbase, team that spawns top should win everytime, unless retards. Symmetrical create balanced gameplay, very very few of these. Game promotes camping because DMR takes to long to kill, faster to camp shoty or camp melee fire.

Fun:This is the biggest joke of them all. If this game was fun, people would still be playing it. I rarely could find myself play more than 3-5 games in a sitting because how bored I became.

MW3 is repetitive but only if you make it that way with your setups. Change and try new settings and configurations. The game is the same thing over and over again, yet I spend HOURS playing it. I couldn't be a single hour of Halo without getting bored. I found myself wanting to clean the house over play Halo, that's what Reach did for me.

I'll ignore the test and I don't paly FPS for campaign.

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

Just remember changes are good if made in the right places. Too little or too much is too drastic for the average gamer.

Call of Duty killed off the fanbase, you idiot.

Correlation =/= Causation

Edit: I like how this entire forum is a circle-jerk about how Reach sucks and they want it to be exactly like H2/H3. YOU bastards are what ruined Reach. 343 was juts listening to the so called "fans".

Anything i say becomes drowned-out by a thousand prepubescent voices saying iIm either wrong with out explaining thier argument against mine or claiming i'm a troll and going back to their bubble world where they are always right at all times.
