Lost my old account long ago ( darkops0 :[ )... Halo forever! :3
and back for awhile xD

Please dont attack or flame each other, I just want a peaceful discussion to my(our) beloved game... Halo. xD Sorry if this looks like a blog(?) I just like to voice my opinion(impression) mods! :D... Warning long text
-------------------------------------------------------
Man, after not playing for a good 1 year... I had finally worked a way to get back on and play REACH! xD (Thank goodness I have 1 2-day trial. :O)

Man, Reach plays like it does in the good old days of me playing xD

Kay, impressions...

I LOVE REACH xD I thought it was going to be bad as (most?) Forum goers have said... boy was I wrong xD

Pure Reach was incredibility fun and good. (Well... AL still doesnt affect me xD and bloom is cool)
Pacing does win you battles Imo :3 Armor abilities are fun to use <3 Stealth mode and Sprint xD

Tu slayer... was amazing I really liked the reduce Bloom. I was nailing my shots more xD has a steady balance of Competitive and fun.

ZB slayer... was pretty okay xD Due to the lag and parties... it was well... it deludes the experience. Imo it is WAY too competitive. Still pretty enjoyable. :D

Reach in my eyes, excellent. Even after a good 1-2 year(s).

They should limit so you could only have half of the max party size. Parties... well, destroy O.O Example: 6 players Invasion, only 3. Full parties do make it... extremely unfair. And dont say get yourself a party... well, I have no one left :(. I wouldnt anyways, to give other players a chance. xD

Just pure fun while it lasted... I love the new modes, but Vanilla still has my heart.

Sorry if, I may have angered people... and I may have not provided facts(post may have errors xD)... Im just excited. xD Man... Halo playa for a long time 343... Bring on the 4 :3!!

Bungie, thanks for making this game, no matter what people say you made a good swan song. I really did take this game for granted... you dont realize it's there until it's taken from you. ;_;

Ps. Talk about how Halo reach is good. (no bad please xD got to be 1 good thing)or reply to the main post xD...
Ancient trolling techniques dont work on me xD (Im immune :O)

Trlr (right?)--- Halo reach Vanilla and the new modes... <3 But please read it? ;_;

Your old account is here.
Surely there is a way to recover.
Did you play Halo 2 online?

Nope, forgot the dang Password xD (This was when I was... Young and stupid >.>) Luckily Auto sign in, saved me for Xbox360 Live.

Yep, I did. Not a lot as you can tell (Online wise xD before they shut down ;_;). Just Campaign, and a whole lot of Split-screen fun. Xbox live for the older Xbox didnt struck me until super late.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Was better before March update.

Maybe, only if I stuck to Halo reach throughout it's life till this very day xD.

  • 03.16.2012 6:43 PM PDT

I think it's good but I still prefer halo3 overall but halo reach is not a fail. It has some good things and some bads.

Good
1)sprint( I think it's nice to have to get out of tough situations quickly)
2) The armour is obviously better and you have more options.
3)Got some cool new game types like head hunter.

Bad
1)Spawn spots are the worse!!! They SUCK sooo badly I think a 4 year old could have made better spawn spots.
2)Maps 90% of the maps are horrible it's a joke!! I mean these are pure horrible I don't think it is possible for 343 to do worse on designing their maps.
3)Armour lock
Not that it really affects me but it does slow down the game and when you get a entire team sticking together and All having Armour lock that is when I hate it. I have been a victim on a few occasions but normally I can beat it with ease .

Good points, especially Number 3. Full parties make me xP (if it is a party of AL'ers xD).

Maps... You know they couldve added a whole lot more maps in the retail version Xo.

Ya... it just makes me sick that a good portion of the maps are just forge maps. I mean like come on people I was more maps like reflection and zealot
