Subject: Reach or Halo 4?

Death to rank junkies.

Halo 4. Retch was ass. Complete and utter ass.

Thats like choosing between dog -blam!- and cat -blam!-.

Sure one of them is easier to clean up, but at the end of the day its still -blam!-.

Halo Reach had bad core gamplay and some decent maps. Halo 4 has good core gameplay but terrible maps. Giving it up Halo 4 because maps can be corrected quickly, whereas it took the **** up Bungie several years and relinquishing control before they were able to attempt, not even balance, but attempt to balance the core gameplay and make it more competitive.

Also, Halo 4's campaign was better, and Spartan Ops has been alright so far, whereas Reach's firefight was pretty much garbage aside from maybe that Covenant hangar FF map, and even then you only had one faction to fight anyways.

Sure one of them is easier to clean up, but at the end of the day its still -blam!-.

It makes a huge difference. Diarrhea is significantly worse than **** that is hardened into one lump. Diarrhea can soak deep down and cause long-term issues, ignoring it causes problems much more quickly, and just getting the surface issues addressed can be a pain. Whereas a **** that's just one lump, all you need to do is take the time to deal with it and you're golden.

I would vote for Reach a thousand times before I vote for Halo 4.

How anyone could like Reach more is beyond me. Oh yippee, slightly more equal spawning and good power weapon placement.

Guess what. You still move like turtle whose legs were cut off and your bullets still shoot at your feet when you're aiming straight upward.

Reach had some gorgeous environments. But the color palette just ruined them. People liking Reach's campaign more than 4? Now that's actually beyond me.

Because to me, Reach's didn't feel like a chore to play through.

Well, to me, every playlist (except Invasion) was bad. Hell, even Invasion had some painfully obvious flaws (See Banshee spawn on Spire). At least with 4, going solo into MM is no longer a nightmare and a roll of the dice, I've actually felt that my opponents closely resemble my level of skill and getting outmatched is not so common now. Gotta love party restrictions.

I'll get you a giant button for Christmas and you can push it repeatedly then. Seems like a suiting gift.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Nah. I already had to press too many buttons in Halo 4.

  • 12.12.2012 7:38 PM PDT

I prefer Reach.

  • 12.12.2012 7:39 PM PDT

Hi.

You push about as many buttons in Halo 4 as you do in Halo 3, and, like in Halo 3, when you push the buttons in Halo 4 interesting and important things actually happen.

Team Doubles was a disaster. A lot of the Reach playlists were.

Halo 4 is taking itself seriously, pulling bad playlists and putting up new ones that get enough attention. Also, I think the maps are terrible, but they're all the same quality of bad (aside from Haven and maybe Adrift which are passable), whereas I think Reach has some good maps, and then some abomnations, like the Forge maps they put in like The Cage and... wow I can't think of the name, it was based on a Halo 2 map. I'm sort of glad I blanked my mind on it, because it was pretty awful for competitive play.

It's cool that you like certain weapons spawning at set times and places, but me, personally, I like my bullets shooting where my reticle is. I like being able to move and jump. I like a sandbox where any weapon has uses (Reach was actually the only Halo to not have that). I also like the lack of a grey abyss, personally.

Yup, super important bro.

Enough with this "cool kid" mentality infecting a lot of FT's members. Reply with an argument or don't, but please don't try compensate for the lack of one, for your own sake.

One of the missions in Halo 4 you had to press 10 buttons. Most of them 6 or 7. If you think that is the same amount as Halo 3 then sure go ahead and think that. I am tired of talking to fanboys.

Referring to Halo 3 or Halo 4? You do it in both.

I'll assume you're talking about Halo 3. Yes; it was important because it was symbolizing the end of your push to the towers that were basically main plot objects. It helped filter the flow of the story.
