Subject: Reach's MISSING FEATURES

Here, we will compile a list of features missing from halo reach so that hopefully someone will pay attention and put them in the next release.

Feature 1. CUSTOM GAMES LISTS.
It's crazy that you can't join a game unless you're friends with that person. I want to be able to see a game list and then join it. Every other online game has this, in fact the very first online games had this. Why the -blam!- is this not in Reach? I'm SICK of crappy MM games. I want to join some solid custom games.

2. BUTTON CUSTOMIZATION
It's crazy that we can't set out OWN CONTROLS the way we want. We should be able to design the ENTIRE controller layout and determine what each button does rather than choosing from a preset list. implementation example: in the controller layour, let the player swap what buttons do.

3. BOTS
What on EARTH was bungie thinking when they didn't bother to put bots in? I am someone who LIKES TO PRACTICE and bots in multiplayer would be great for that. Or if there aren't enough players in a custom game, they'd be useful.

That's what I can think of. What else is missing? Also, if it's not obvious: please don't say that a feature I or someone else listed shouldnt be implemented just because YOU wouldn't use it. That's NOT a valid argument.

Well I'll list things that were actually supposed to be here.

Drivable scarab in Campaign

Rideable Moas in Campaign and Multiplayer as a gametype

Custom callouts on Forge maps

Custom pictures for Forge maps

A surrender option for when your entire team quits on you

Skill based multiplayer that isn't dominated by one weapon

Weakened grenades compared to the Beta

Faster movement speed and jump height compared to the Beta



I could go on.

Technically, those aren't features. Those are just balance issues with adjusting the damage values and jump height value - its not itself a missing feature but your other suggestions were good.

I play games for gameplay, not silly gimmicks

H3 MM warrior

Reach S7, 8 and 9 arena warrior.

H4 MM legend

first I like that no random tard can join my custom, aside from my friends. Besides that would take a lot of effort to do with the sheer amount of people playing.

Second bots in halo? Please tell me you are kidding.....

I will repeat: You don't have to use feature you don't like. Obviously you would have control over who can join your game and you don't have to play against bots if you don't want. You are essentially playing against bots when you play the campaign and firefight, not sure why they'd upset you to see them in multiplayer.

"I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I aim with my eye.
I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I shoot with my mind.
I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.
I kill with my heart."

My list were things Bungie said they would add, but didn't.

Sure, how about more vehicles in Team slayer like they used to have in Halo 3. I really miss that.
