heck yea. i never got much progress in halo 3 legendary, but in reach legendary, i got almost to the end of the first mission without dying. and im not really a campaign person.

thanks for the compliment on the wallpaper

its not hard to do the first mission on legendary in under 15 minutes.

damn right its not hard. i finished it in like 11.

thats because its made to introduce you to to the game, with about 1/3 of it just walking through. Another 1/3 with just grunts/jackals. And only about 10 elites in total.

So... anyone found the data pads yet? there is one at New Alexandria, at the part where you get the jet-packs.

Grifball icon. Yeye.

DLC

i found em all, slowpoke.

Anchor 9


Tempest


Breakpoint


Breakpoint looks like Containment from Halo 2.

Quite sexy.

i just really want a nighttime map though.

...no it doesn't? There's no wide open middle space with a tunnel going underneath, two side tunnels, and two main bases.

It's completely different.

almost reminds me of avalanche

They are not contributing to the discussion and are spam. In very short order ALL your posts from all time will disappear as well and you will be banned.

understood, but why cant i have a sig? i am contributing but i am also using a sig why cant i do that

Cat just PM dennis about this issue, we need to keep the thread to REACH discussion or else it falls like the last thread months ago.

Also haters gonna hate.

Yeah, played Reach for a few hours, and much unlike the intensity and amature (fresh) play of the Beta, the full game has me wondering why they did not just slap Halo 3 on the cover and sell it as a campaign extension.

The campaign was aimed at the person who like to fight, rather than have a solids storyline that had detail, which highly turned me off towards this game:

RATING:

Gameplay: 8/10 ; Very interactive and Competitive, On- and Off-line
Customizability: 9/10 ; Forge allowed more to be made and more options than Halo 3
Campaign: 5/10 ; Not very detailed, but has a well written ending
Multiplayer: 4/10 ; This decreased from my previous "10/10" for the Beta, people just began "Noob Tubing" too often
Graphics: 9/10 ; Very good graphics! but looks more like a bumped and dirty version of Halo 3 (and if the characters got more buff aswell)

Go look at Modern Warfare 2 and all the people migrate from there to Halo Reach, you will see WHY the beta was a tad better except for the grenade spamming.

why should i hate?
i have flaming helmet.
I have jfo helmet.
i have Mark V helmet.
I have Military Police helmet.
i have multi threat/ua armor.

the rest is poop.

That game was worse

Thats all matter of opinion =) I like detailed storylines with an interesting aspect and viewpoint, of course, those, in themselves, are also all opinionated aswell. I never found the game interesting. Although others will.

I don't get it. MP was pretty good for me but I do miss DWs. Noob Tubes don't seem to work on me though I think it's just a matter of luck.

:( ok then, lets not derail this thread

When do you get Gungnir Helmet and Emile's Shoulder Armor? I'm Lt.Colonel now, so I just want to see where I am.

I'm still remaining an ODST even though I have the Mark V helmet. I like the ODST a lot in Reach, as in Halo 3 it was the Mark V. Funny how things change like this.

Gungnir at General
Emile Shoulders at Brigadier

your joking right? are you really serious? thats sad. go play MW2 THEN complain about noob tubing in halo reach. I have no idea what you are talking about, i rarely see rocket launchers/gernade launchers.
Edited by abkarch on Oct 21, 2010 at 07:02 AM

Lol, what is "noob tubing" i have no idea what it is.

Ah, i haven't seen any of that on reach yet, just a lot of people owning me with the dmr.

wrong, using grenade launchers in MW2. Using the term outside of MW2 is invalid.

Do you have proof of it being invalid?

It's called Propiping (which compared to the beta really takes professional use) and Rocket Whoring. I'd give Multiplayer 10/10 for fun even though some things need adjusting. Just because I find flaws in the game doesn't mean it doesn't deserve the perfect score. Compared to most games I've played in Multiplayer, Reach's is definitely the most consistent.

9.5/10

No game is perfect, ever, there is always room for improvement regardless of your arguments. There is no definition of a perfection made video game.

i have to admit, the plot in campaign was a bit lame. They could have done a bit better with it, we all knew most of them were going to die anyway, and they over dramatized it

Yeah, i'd give it a 9.5 out of 10, nothing compares the the story of combat evolved, it is awsome.

I don't think it was over dramatized. I think it suited each character very well in their deaths: Jorge's was very strong and devoted to Reach, Kat's was unexpected and slightly harsh which struck the team (and many players) as incredibly shocking, Carter died sacrificing himself for his team, Emile died fighting as a warrior, and Noble Six dies as a hero.

The game as massively improved since Halo 3 even. The multiplayer is actually balanced at its core (even with the few quirks regarding sniper and melee) compared to Halo 3's constant changes with the AR damage and melee system (which drove me insane). Now the playlists and crap is a different story, mainly because the game still focuses on headshots and straightforward starts in fighting with the DMR and Pistol instead of giving the abstract possibilities allowed with the AR with Pistol gametypes.
