Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

- crazy lag
- lame default maps like Sword Base/Countdown that game developers actually thought were good, when in fact they're -blam!- trash
- BKs everywhere, it sucks if you search Solo
- party restrictions are non-existent
- bloom, the sheer concept behind it when you're a Spartan that can flip warthogs (wait, you can flip warthogs but are -blam!- enough to deal with gun recoil? wtf?)
- nuclear powered nades, that most noobs chuck first thing upon seeing you
- retarded loadout armor abilities like the map-breaking jetpack, camo (guarantee'd to make any garbage sniper into a one man army) and AL, the last of which is probably the dumbest idea in FPS game history.

I really could go on and on and on.

The nades aren't over-powered. It's the FOV. They need to be that powerful for when you're trying to nade someone out of a cranny on Hemorrhage from a couple football fields away.

I actually have a theory that they gravitate toward people, or go off quicker when near someone.

Throw a nade down a hallway in Sword Base and it bounces 10 feet, then explodes. Throw it toward another player and it bounces 2 feet, just behind the player, then it explodes.

That is no way to state a theory.

bungie set the game up to push people in each others face, for example;
- you get to see who/how the enemy killed you,
- you then get it shown to you at games end
(who killed you most and with what weapon)
- team play doesnt exist, but the game is geared towards it

People end up hating other players, and because you cant do anything about that you blame the system which matches you up again-and-again. And because reach wants a full team (no opt in/out mm) you often get matched up way to many times.

This.

It's the internet connections and 343's shi**y servers that cause lag, not the game on the disc. lmao

  • 03.27.2012 6:27 AM PDT

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".

Because it isn't Halo


Exactly, Reach isn't Halo. Reach is a pile of garbage (except for forge world which is the only good thing that came out of Reach).

Support this if you want Halo 4 to have a chance at being good. Help make Halo 4 a good game unlike Reach.

The question about why people hate reach doesn't have to do with what's on the disk.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

I love how only bad kids are saying that Reach is awesome. Then they tell the good players to "adapt", because obviously the people that are better than these bad kids haven't adapted.

Why couldn't bad kids learn normal Halo gameplay in the first place? That way, nobody has to "adapt" to un-Halo-like gameplay.

Halo Reach Completely died for me when squad slayer was removed. Only playlist i could stand/enjoy.

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

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.


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.


oh but did you know it is a lot harder to get to max rank with no kills in Reach than it is in Halo 3? you sir, are the retard. reachs ranks are ment to keep players who do awesome but lose games, because, guess what, you earn a -blam!- load more cR for doing good!!! in halo 3 it didnt matter if you had 49 and no one on your team had any kills but the enemy team all had 12 or 13 kills, you wont earn exp. Halo 3's ranking sysem sucked ass, because now poor players can feel good about their rank, plus, seasoned players are much more important than skilled players.

skilled players are all cocky and -blam!-s, when seasoned players are typically nice. so, -blam!- you, sir.

^Mad about not being able to level up in Halo 3. "waaahhhh waaaahhh, I have to be good to rank up"

1. Cool assumptions, bro.
2.Completely contradicted yourself. You say we're "cocky" or whatever else, then you insult us.

Im an above average player and I like Reach. When the game first came out I was too quick to judge it.

When there was no TU, I liked playing it. Now that there are TU and ZB, I have fun playing any playlist.

It's harder to get max rank in Reach with no kills? I didn't know AFKing was difficult. What about custom challenges? Look at my stats and play time for crying out loud. (2nd account)
