-Sword Base
- Lowered Skill Gap
- Slowed movement speed, jump height leads to lowered skill gap and OP Grenades.
- AA's make for Rock-Paper-Scissors gameplay.
- Maps taken directly from campaign.
-Bloom
- Only 1/4 of the game is fixed.
- 1 player theater mode
- Horrible matchmaking system.
- Lame campaign.
- Sword Base, it sucks so bad it needs to be mentioned twice.
- Larger sniper hitboxes.
-DMR Sniper rifle

Halo 3 takes way more skill and is way more fun in my opinion.


The only issue I have with H3 is that BR spawns should be standard for every playlist.


This sums it up. If anyone wants to add me for some halo 3 fun :) Go ahead. If you play Reach more than 3, I will remove, block and flag your gamertag for terrorism. It only seems fair :D

An Inheritor on Reach could be a rank 12 on Halo 3.. Reach requires no skill.

Go play your beloved Halo 3 kids, then come back to Halo:Reach and say that..


Agreed but you have to agree that the host selection in this game is terrible.



I will go play Halo 3. I will not, however, enjoy this POS game.

H3 BR is not overpowered. Check out Dominator_ on Twitch.tv and watch him destroy level 50 BR users with every weapon in the sandbox.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

Reach is just a bad game in general just like Halo 3. However Reach MLG is much better than Halo 3 MLG gameplay wise.

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

I don't know.

Do you know what sensitivity he uses? It looks like 6 or 7.

This thread is now about Dominator. We have enough threads about hating Reach and generally nothing worthy of discussion.

Halo 3 takes no skill either. sure skill makes it easier to level up, but since its based off of winning and not kills, then that means you can get no kills an entire game, have your team do all the work, and earn exp. it is possible to get to max rank without killing a single person.

I can't really say I hate Reach. I don't play a lot of matchmaking unless it's with friends, and even then it may be only 2 or 3 games of Team Slayer or BTB. I do, however, play a lot of Firefight, and what annoys me more than anything are some of the other Firefight players. If they're not standing in front of me, thus blocking my shot, they're in the spawning zone, being AFK. If they're not there, then they are most certainly feeding the grunts or elites with their corpses. When I do get a game where I am matched with contributing and competent team members, they leave halfway through the game, leaving me to finish the game with the other types of aforementioned players. I still get joy out of this game, whether it be through custom games, multiplayer, firefight, or otherwise, albeit not as much as when I first got the game. In any case, I do not hate Reach.

Reach is total garbage. I'm proud it failed and died. Hope this message gets to 343 and they make a proper game.

Quit competitive Halo, I have acquired something called "having a life". Play it time to time as of now. Some people should also try this thing called "having a life".

This:

Melee kills both players.

The DMR is considered a power weapon.(It's only a power weapon when you know how to use it.)


I love all the Halo games.
Halo is Halo.

I <3 Halo:Reach - amazingly fun and best campaign + amazing Soundtrack
I <3 Halo 3:ODST - best soundtrack + Firefight + Coastal Highway and Mombassa Streets, amazingly unique campaign.
I <3 Halo 3 - best multiplayer levels + Forge + best Custom Games + soundtrack

H3.
You win = 1exp
You lose = nada.
Winning + exp increased your global rank


Reach
Win/lose = EVERYBODY WINS!
Win/lose your rank still goes up.



Oh btw did you know.
You can get max rank in reach without getting a kill as well!
How -blam!- brilliant.



Also, you're -blam!- retarded.

Before Bungie departed from Microsoft, they told them that they wanted the rights to carry on Master Chief's legacy and start with a Halo 4. Bungie, having little options, had no choice but to make a story before Halo CE ever happened. So that means no BR, no Master Chief and something completely new. Unfortunately, it backfired. I've adapted fine to Reach, doesn't mean I like it. The ranking system is one of the core foundations of the past Halo games. Reach's credit ranking is horrible. You get Inheritors that are supposed to be good but instead, whore Firefight. Its not like the old fashioned way when you see a level 50 and can pretty much expect a good match.
