Subject: If Reach had 1-50 and...

Herroh. U have reached teh BOOGIE LAND

75% Bloom on the DMR, No Armor Lock and No Jetpack, would Halo Reach be considered a good game?

Edit: Let me rephase that: Would Halo Reach be considered a better game than current Vanilla settings?

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Reach still has a ton of colossal failures like aim/movement acceleration, slow movement speed, no bleedthrough, huge hitboxes, terribly huge splash damage on vehicles like tanks and banshees, etc...

It would be better then vanilla Reach but it would still be worse then previous Halo games.

  • 07.29.2012 4:27 PM PDT

It'd be better than it is now.

  • 07.29.2012 4:33 PM PDT

I consider it a good game as it is.

  • 07.29.2012 4:42 PM PDT

No

everything would be great just put back armor lock and put them in certain cases like BTB in Hemmorhage, since some people just take a ghost and spawn splatter. and then it would practically be as hard to kill as a revenant if you didnt have armor lock.

Armor lock is unnecessary if you have more skill than the average cat.

true.... but still I wonder why they added AA's.... and took out duel wielding and such.

Grenukes. Terrible weapon sandbox. Bad maps. Aim/movement acceleration. Paper mache vehicles. Warthog physics. Loadouts. Camo as an AA. No powerups.

No.

Bad maps.


Agreed.

Because they wanted encounters to be different. The problem is that AA's that have no correlation with each other in conjunction with loadouts doesn't perpetuate variety.

If they were placed on the maps and the non-power weapons and non utility weapons were actually worth using, then there would be more variety.

I'm new to competitive Halo and Halo itself (Reach being my first video game ever actually). Message me if you want to play;

Reach: MLG, Arena, Doubles, BTB and customs.
Halo 3: Ranked MM and customs.

Also I have every Halo title and all of its DLC on the Xbox 360.
-Umpa

The 1-50 system went well with EXP because they both made MM more competitive.

I like the 1-50 system but I wouldn't enjoy it as much alongside credits & challenges.

Aesthetics is an art, your body is the canvas, weights are your brush and nutrition is your paint. We all have the ability to turn a self portrait into a masterpiece

if they had 5-10 ranked playlists, then absolutely. The DMR with no/ridiculousy small amount of bloom takes more skill than a BR does and i imagine the higher end competitive fanbase would have loved it.

also, base movement traits would have needed buffs as well.

ZBNS "MLG settings" would be more enjoyable to play, with a skill based ranking system.

Reach's matchmaking system as a whole just sucks and there a lot of other problems with Reach.

So yes to your rephrased question, in only 1 playlist.

It would obviously be better than it is now.

Next they would need NO shipped forge maps (1 because they are terrible made-everysingle on of them 2 they are grey and obviously a cheat on time. Could have made all proper maps ffs.)

Then things like jump height could be higher if no AA's speed increased and all the maps altered to these changes.

I think AA's would be fine if they were power weapons(placed on map incentive for map control) I don't like the 1-50 as a perfect system needs alot of change to work properly.

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.

Your 'beliefs' mean less than dick to me.

No, because it still has bloom, and sprint, and active camo.
