My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

You will realize that the Boltshot is underpowered.

Sometimes I am tempted to quit gaming. I can no longer play without seeing ponyphags, horrendously bad teammates and mexicans.

Gaming community, I want you to know that you suck.

This guy, who says lolreach had the best campaign, is telling me that campaign is important. hahahahahaha


When did I ever say Reach had the best campaign?

Pinnacle of Halo. Eh, maybe you didn't say lolreach had the best, but its close enough. Any of the campaigns are better than reach's.

You hate 4 because it took aspects from Call of Duty. Based off that you assume that the campaign was garbage and you grasp at straws to try and prove it (Decepticon Cobra is probably the only person I've seen that's legitimately shown me they dislike the campaign for good reason). You think Halo 2 was the pinnacle of competitive Halo because it catered to "competitive people" like you. You think Halo is completely dead and that even Reach was better than it. You forgive Reach completely and say that "only now do I realize what I had." And so on.
Hmmm no. Trilogy >>> Halo 4 > Reach
H3 would be the pinnacle if not for connection-based BR and silly AR melee kills.
H2 had way too much autoaim.
Halo is not dead, just CoDified and full of retards.

It's good, but be prepared for a lot of overly entitled, purist whining.

Eh, who am I kidding. You're already on the Flood.

Even Halo 3, which had a pointless first half and an infuriating mission known as "Cortana"?

Oh wait, Halo 3 was perfect.

Though I despise the other person's attitude, I have to say that I disagree. Reach's campaign didn't have a legitimate plot until halfway through the second last mission (not as bad as ME3's, where nothing happens until the last five minutes, but whatever). Halo 3's didn't have one for 4 missions, but when it did it was compelling and incorporated many of Halo's best narrative devices into it (coming full circle, life overcoming everything in the terminals, etc.).

The Flood just hates Halo 4 because its not Halo 3.5


How is this a bad thing or even an argument?

Yes we want Halo 3.5 because there were only a couple big things wrong with Halo 3. Mainly the netcode and bullet spread, which could have been fixed. Besides that it was by far the best one of them all.

I just didn't like Cortana because Gravemind wouldn't shut the -blam!- up and let me get on with the mission.

What I want to know is why some people complain so much about the short button pressing quick time events in Halo 4 but didn't care about the Cortana or Gravemind speeches in Halo 3.

So you want Halo turn into CoD? Yearly releases with little to no change every 12 months? Is that what you guys want?


I love this argument. So you think moving towards CoD-like gameplay is less CoD-like than releasing titles more frequently/with only minor improvements? Your logic, or lack thereof, is -blam!- mind boggling.

DMR's. DMR's everywhere.
Yup, lots of ill informed people who think the dmr is the best. The light rifle is the superior rifle.


I like the carbine.

OT: it's certainly not better than the previous games but its still allright.

Halo 3 had a horrible campaign. I don't see why people think of it highly.

Also, I'd rather have speeches than pressing buttons again and again and seeing the same animation again and again.

Me? Mad? Over opinions?

I'm never mad over opinions. I like to debate mine though, but it seems that intelligent conversation isn't exactly appreciated over here.

And people saying Halo 2/3 were pinnacles of competitive Halo aren't expressing their opinion. They're denying an outright fact that Halo CE was by far the most competitive game.

- Equipment's not too bad. They took most of the stuff out of MM.
- Bleed through > not bleed through.
- Pistol is I don't even, but no one uses it anyway. I also hated the pistol in Reach.
- I was considering saying that H3 should have H2's maps.
- Spiker and Brute Shot are god tier.
- I'd rather have headshot weapons that take a miniscule amount of skill kill faster than "BDBDBDBDBDBDBDBD triple kill" spray and pray

I guess I can agree.

- Bleed through > not bleed through.

Not when you punch with the strength of superman and reduce kill times to practically two bullets and a melee
- Pistol is I don't even, but no one uses it anyway. I also hated the pistol in Reach.

I like the pistol in Reach. If you paced it correctly you could outdo a DMR user. Though don't take this as me liking Reach overall.

- I was considering saying that H3 should have H2's maps.

Okay.

- Spiker and Brute Shot are god tier.

And useless. It doesn't matter how "awesome" they are when they're clogging up a sandbox. Unless you go for a niche weapon system like in Halo 4 or make every weapon extremely powerful like in Halo CE sandbox clutter is inevitably evident.

- I'd rather have headshot weapons that take a miniscule amount of skill kill faster than "BDBDBDBDBDBDBDBD triple kill" spray and pray

Or you could have Halo CE style plasma freeze, large clips to allow for support weapon ARs, etc.

You'll probably get bored of it in a week or two. The game's multiplayer feels unorganized and random.
