Why do you care.

Hey You want to know what really sucks about Reach People Like you always complaining about Reach Da -blam!- No one is making you play Reach go play COD ( A fish) You N00B all you people do is complain about a game.
Reach is a lot of fun Compared to Halo 3 Multi Player It was good back in 2008 but now it just suck. Now GTFO BK

I like halo 3, but I know Halo 4 is going to and will always BE, a better game.

1) Melee system. - Its a concrete system. Sure it changes gameplay, but its not too bad.
2) Jumping. - Halo 3's was floaty
3) Run speed. - fixed post beta
4) Armor abilities. - Effective to use but -blam!- to have used against you
5) Weapon audio. - Better than Halo 3 and 4
6) Weapons in general. - Grenade launcher is boss
7) Graphical textures. - Better graphics than 3
8) Multiplayer maps. - Your correct, very few good ones
9) Firefight sucks compared to ODST. - Correct
10) No Halo theme. - Correct
11) Armor permutations are worse than Halo 3 in every way (they look stupid, too many permutations making them less special, too easy to unlock making them less special)
12) Bad kids can do good. - Only in default reach slayer
13) Grenades. - A little Op yeah

They are dull, gray, generic and boring, Halo 3 looked so much better in my opinion.

Jumping is the main problem in that list. It's smaller than CE's. That's what it feels like. I could crouch jump up a supply case in CE... why has that changed? :/

Firefight comes second. It's one of the reasons why I've begun my latest project.

Meleeing comes third since it slows down close quarters combat to a crawl.

But other than that, Reach isn't terribly bad.

I agree. Halo Reach sucks, no other game in the Halo franchise have ever gotten this much criticism. The problems with Reach are:

1. Grenades suck. The physics for the grenades are wonky. Compare it to Halo 3 and you will see the difference. The grenades either bounce too much or not at all.

2. Armor abilities. People use the armor abilities defensively. Every time I try to kill someone they run away with jet-packs or sprint away or they get into armor-lock. That is really stupid. That is the reason why it won't be included in Halo 4. Thank God.

3. The Halo Reach xbox live server sucks. Every time someone quits the game has to find a new host or some bull crap.

4. DMR sucks. Its a stupid weapon. I get a lot of kills with the weapon but it sucks compared to the BR. Thank God Halo 4 is bringing that back. The assault rifle also sucks in the game.

When people played Halo 3 it was like a battlefield, no one backed out and ran away. But when you play Reach people always run away or use rocket-launchers or noob-tubing tactics. Everyone is scared to fight people. Half the time I will be playing team slayer and the map would be completely quiet. You can literally hear crickets. Thats pathetic. The reason why its like that is because people are weenies and they wait for the enemy to come to them.

And to finally prove that Halo Reach sucks to everyone who thinks it doesn't. Please check how many people are playing Halo Reach. BA BAAM!!!!

get over it.

Reach isnt a great halo game, but its still better than most of the crap out there right now.

Just play the game, and if you suck get better. Honestly with all the stuff they fixed, at least they are willing to listen to a point.

Just play the game, or dont, really its not that big of a deal anymore.

If you want it to literal, play cod or something. What did you expect? They have on some type of armored gravity suit and they're fighting aliens. That explains the jumping, run speed, armor abilities, and odd weapons.

Everything else you posted does make it suck though...

  • 06.27.2012 12:23 PM PDT

hey look, another reach complaining thread! get new, kid

  • 06.27.2012 3:14 PM PDT

1) It's 2 hits to kill. In Halo 3, you just shott a couple bullets and take about half their shield, then melee is a 1 hit kill. If anything, melee has been improved.
BUSTED

2) Jumping is fun. They are Spartans with about 2 ton weighted armor, so realistic? No. But what game would be fun if it was? It's easier to get to interesting places, and to evade. And if you're playing seriously, I'd focus more on killing that flying.
BUSTED

3) I don't see what's wrong with the run speed. Too slow? Use sprint. Too fast? Well...I can't imagine why you would want to go slow. You'd be so easy to aim on and you can't get to places efficiently. So what's the problem?
BUSTED

4) The only cheap one is Armor Lock. Camo can be annoying, but it's not that bad. Almost useless since you're actually still pretty visable not to mention you have no idea where your enemies are.
BUSTED

5) Again, not suppose to be realistic. And if you do want it to sound realistic think of it this way. Halo is way into the future. New technolgy, new guns and systems. How do you know what they can sound like? For all we know they could sound exactly like future weapons. And they don't sound dumb, they still sound like guns.
BUSTED

6) A few new weapons added, but otherwise the regualar weapons from the other games. Why would one game in the series have 100% new weapons? That makes no sense.
BUSTED

7) Back to realism. Halo is meant to be slightly cartoony, though I still like the textured. If you want it realistic, go to Call of Duty or Battlefield.

8) Some maps are better than others depending on the game type you play, but generally they're pretty balanced. Not to mention if you don't like it, make your own maps in Forge.
BUSTED

9) You can play it th exact same way, or different ways. It's the same, but optionally more.
BUSTED

10) Slightly confused on that, but do you mean it doesn't feel like Halo? Well this is in the past, and believe it or not, Chief was not the only Spartan to exist. Not to mention Reach links to Halo in generally, and even starts Halo CE at the end.
BUSTED

11) Most of them came from Halo 3. And it gives you more individuality. In Halo 3 some were hard to get. Example getting an Overkill in a ranked free-for-all I believe it was. Some people aren't amazing at Halo, so for some people it was either pure luck, or it's impossible to get. Reach made armor pretty legit.
BUSTED

12)Not really. Sure you still gain credits even if you suck, but your skill determines whether you get 500cR or 5000cR.
BUSTED

13)Grenades. Yeah they can be cheap. It depends how you use them. But they are explosives. In what game are grenades not cheap?
BUSTED

Fell free to add to your list so I can negate them.


And I shall name this post, "Why Reach rocks"
