I've noticed a lot of hate towards Reach, both before and after 343 took over. I don't understand why. Reach was (just like CoD, unfortunately) a great game, though the crappy community ruins online multiplayer play.
I have to say, though, that I've come to hate Reach after 343 screwed it all up. Bungie worked so hard to make Reach what it was, and then 343 went and made it into a sort of Halo 4 alpha test. They ruined what made Reach Reach. They ruined Armor Lock, an already near-useless ability, they removed bloom, which, really, was not bad. People just liked to -blam!- about it.
Speaking of 343 ruining things, they also gave away Recon on Halo 3. Instead of putting a little elbow grease into integrating the old way to earn Recon into waypoint, they just gave it away. Hours and days of grueling work totally wasted, a good game now worthless to me, my shiny armor the only reason I kept the game. I honestly feel like they're breaking perfectly good games to get people to buy their sparkly new game which does not totally suck because they purposely ruined it.
Thoughts, forumgoers?

Well, the achievements would have been easy if it weren't for the fact that if one person had to leave or lagged out, all progress would be lost. Back then I still had an Elite, and we all know those wireless dinosaurs crapped out real quick.

Considering it is still the 5th most played game on the Xbox, I wouldn't say 'everybody hates it.' It's just that the people that claim to are really annoying and obnoxious about it that's all. Don't confuse the loudest people for the majority of people.

Also I dunno about 343 yet. Some good decisions. Some bad. We'll see.

Yes I am from Lebanon & yes that is in the middle east!
Yes I am a Muslim & yes I am proud of it!
LEBO is short for Lebanese, so yeah. Anyway My name is Amer Shahen (Shahen means Falcon or Eagle in arabic) lol I can't speak arabic that well. Amer is pronounced Amir just like Yusuf Amir off GTA4. I don't hate Americans either BTW.
Have fun, go hard and most of all respect your fellow gamers.
Check out my Fileshare!

I just hate the the constant factions of people claiming they run playlists...

Mainly the BTB playlist, get over yourselves, spawn trapping doesn't make you a big shot :/

We make people back out before we even match them so yes, we DO run certain playlists.

We make people scared to search.

this far into its life, h3 was still number 1.
And now Halo: Reach is utterly dominating Halo 3. What's your point?

You don't say? The newer thing is outnumbering the older thing?

MAN! Who saw that coming?

My point exactly. Every game beating Reach came out after it. So you either admit Halo: Reach is vastly superior to Halo 3 as a Halo game, or your argument for why Halo: Reach is 'bad' is complete crap.

That's not the only reason Reach is bad you fkn tard. Reach being bad leads to lower populations than in previous Halo games - the populations are lower. If you don't admit that, then you're even more clueless than everyone already thinks you are.

I'd explain how bad Reach is at a competitive level, since you're the epitome of a thumbless idiot, but I've got better things to do then try to convince the Bungie blow­job boy as to why their last Halo game was utter crap as far as Halo games go.

tl;dr - chug antifreeze.
