Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

i liked the DMR, thought the idea of a cross between the BR and sniper rifle was cool, like how the BR is a cross between an AR and sniper rifle.
i didn't like armour lock but i was appalled at Reaches terrible maps (and i thought most Halo 3's maps were bad at the time)

how about you?

Pleased about, netcode and forge mechanics.

Disappointed or neutral and just about everything else. Mainly the sandbox.

Always up for REACH customs!

Pleased with Forge, displeased with its wasted potential. Matchmaking should have 100+ community maps by now.

I never bothered picking up the sword until TU because of sword block, but now it's an awesome power weapon.

I like peanut butter. And playing Reach while smoking copious amounts of crack and wearing a Rainbow Brite costume.

Pleased it was a fun game, until I got bored of it. Pissed because your mom quit playing with me.

  • 02.01.2012 10:21 PM PDT

PLEASED: sniper, forge, evade, living dead, invasion, slayer, 85 percent bloom, firefight, sum other things i can't think of.

DISPLEASED: armor lock, full bloom, gernades, bull trues, needler, invis, one person view on theater, and some other things i cant think of atm.

  • 02.01.2012 10:26 PM PDT

I hate armor lock. People who say adapt are just stating it and never are explaining, why adapt. Why adapt to such a terrible feature. All they do is hide in their special blue condom. I only respect those who actually use it tactically. Not Idiots who think its meant to be used every gunfight when they aren't even at melee range. Or no grenade was thrown.

Now the good feature in Reach I like is how it is more fast paced. Halo 3 was good but I prefer it too be fast paced. No, I am not talking about it being call of duty. But for it being faster, it is a lot more fun to me.

So yeah the only single feature I hate and will always hate, is armor lock.

  • 02.02.2012 4:02 AM PDT

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

-Master Chief

Pleased with: Forge World
Disappointed by: Lack of invasion maps

If you would like to know more about Mythic difficulty please go to this thread. Thank you.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

Pleased about: Forge

Biggest disappointment: Loadouts

  • 02.02.2012 4:24 AM PDT

Salute me. Or... or, you know, stuff.

Like
-The campaign. Too bad it doesn't have much replay value because, well, it's a campaign.
-Firefight. Mostly well done, much better than ODST's (which I liked).
-Superficial upgrades like the graphics and physics.
-Customization and Credits
-Improved Forge capabilities

Dislike
Most everything else, specifically:
-The multiplayer (bloom, lack of developer support, quit bans, game-breaking armor abilities).
-Every map being a portion from the campaign. Awful idea that made for awful maps.
-Every other map being a green and grey blur of Forge maps, all of which required memorizing their vague and unimportant names to know which were which.

Liked:
Larger armor selection, evade, sprint, ASSASSINATIONS, invasion, graphic/texture upgrades, pistol(85%), more shotgun range, plasma launcher, focus rifle. invasion maps(cept spire), forge mechanics.

Dislike:
all armor abilities other than sprint/evade, headhunter, bloom(100%), splazer(why the nerf?), Banshee(OP), The Spire, Forge maps(GREEEY), sword block(fixed).

Without The Flood, I wouldn't know what an opinion is.

The netcode in reach is fantastic. I can only remember a single instance where I've ever experienced lag in Reach.

That said, the entire rest of the game is fairly lackluster.

  • 02.02.2012 11:55 AM PDT

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

Pleased about firefight, multiplayer, forge and customs

Disappointed by the people who play it, or some of them at least

  • 02.02.2012 12:18 PM PDT

Fun fact: 9/10 users with no linked gamertag are better than you at Halo. That doesn't necessarily mean that I am; but it does mean there's a pretty solid chance.

Pros: netcode, single-shot precision weapons, Campaign and Firefight matchmaking

Cons: reticle bloom, AAs (primarily AL and Jetpack), ranking system, default maps, hitscan sniper, movement speed, jump height

  • 02.02.2012 12:26 PM PDT

Hi.

I dislike the art-style, campaign direction, multiplayer direction, ie. slower movement and load-outs, and pretty much the entire game.

I like how they kept purple as a color that you can make your armor.

^^This, and the fact that there is barely any forge maps unlike Halo 3. i.e Foundry, Sandbox etc.

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?

Useless? In any mode, they're overpowered as hell.
