We all thought Halo 3 was better than Halo 2, we all though Halo Reach was better than Halo 3, we all thought Halo 4 was better than Reach.

/thread


Relatively few thought Reach was better than Halo 3. Even fewer seem to think Halo 4 is better than Reach.

Yet there was no large outcry against Halo 3. Reach was way worse than anything ever seen reaction wise, Halo 4 is its own category. At least reach threads dominating the reach forum made sense. It takes a lot of anger to dominate the off topic forum.


Well to be fair, Reach had its own forum here. Halo 4 has Waypoint and a few scattered private groups here. Of course we all know what happens to dissenters in Waypoint.
Same thing on the 343i forum. A kid commented that he was good (2.0 k/d) at H4, and was constantly winning games and then went on to say the game is unfair in matchmaking and that he's always going negative and losing....lolwut.

So I explained to him the contradiction, and I was banned for "derailing the conversation". This was after he sent me PM's telling me to "suck it" and "gtfo", among other things, and yet he reported me. Congratulations, Flood, the nuclear relationship we all have has miraculously prevailed.

EDIT: H3 totally had a ton of hate against it when it first released. It wasn't "Halo 2" and it was "dumbed down for noobs". Although I will concede that most of the complaints melted away. I think H4 is good, but I now believe that H3 was the most "complete" Halo game. H2's multiplayer is on just such a legendary status that I can't even compare it objectively to anything else.

Maroon 5 is awesome. Deal with it.

Reach is my Favourite Halo Game.

Halo 4 is the worst in the series. No Firefight, Campaign missions not in theatre. Dumb AI. Join in Progress. Generic maps. DMR focused gameplay. Weapon Despawn. Glitches around the sprint ability. No incentive to level up. Spartan Ops recycles maps. Forge is less exciting than forge world.

It's an overall downgrade from Reach. Upsides are Graphics and Soundtrack. But they don't make a game.

Please don't hype for games...
They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

The people who say Reach was better are most likely joking/trolling. Majority of people think Halo 4 is better than Reach but worst than Halo 3. And I think the majority of the hate will stop if they just have a playlist where everyone has the same starting weapons, no loadouts, no perks or AA, powerups are on the map, no ordinance drops, and no killcams.

I think Halo 4 will turn out great. 343i is just using a different method than Bungie to update Halo 4 which is better becuase it doesn't cut a community out, justs adds to the game

We still all think Reach was -blam!-, bro. Check your facts.

  • 11.29.2012 6:45 AM PDT

Well no -blam!-, that's how it always goes on a Bungie forum. It happens every time.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Saying Reach is better than Halo 4 in comparison =/= Saying Reach is the best Halo

But Reach WAS the best Halo. Armor lock was the best part of it.

I use a signature because I can

I still say Reach is worse than H4. But not much better.
