Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
launch station? What a stupid idea for a map. I mean, come on.
Seems like they're going away from the Sandbox-style "one map fits all" Forge map and moving more in the direction of providing several Forge maps to cover all the bases. I might actually mess with it this time.

It's probably the internal name and it's possible that it is just a firefight map. Remember too, these are all from campaign in some fashion.
Also, I think it's rather immature to declare a map a stupid idea just on the name alone. You have no context whatsoever on layout or how it ties into the game.
Those forge names could just be internal stuff too, candidates for a forge only map for retail (like Foundry was)
To top it off, this is from internal map information, not from the horses mouth. Like this entire beta, it's subject to change or not even appear in retail.

Pretty much this.
When I first picked up Reach it felt like a whole new game. However, the people I get paired up against are simply put, profags, and in turn the game is starting to feel more like Halo 3.5 the more I play it. I'm hoping once I get my "aha!" moment and get a better feel of the game, it'll shake.
Also, I love how many people are complaining about the DMR and saying that the BR is soooo much better. Well, no shit, with the BR you didn't even need to line up your shot before pulling the trigger. Thank you, Bungie, for making a weapon that REALLY takes an iota of skill to use and punishes people that aren't doing it right.

I was being facetious. Don't worry, I didn't expect anyone to get it.

It took me some time to get used to the DMR instead of spraying like I did in h3, but it is very good.
I find that the overpowered weapons are
Needler
Shotgun
Focus Rifle
That's just me. Other then the fact I never picked up the Rocket Launcher and killed somebody with it, if I did I always committed suicide for dumb reasons.
Oh for those of you who might have seen me on xbox live, my GT is z BusHMasTeR (had the name before wikileaks showed that video that had bushmaster...) and it was meant for a joke.
Who likes playing as Elites for once?

E: Also warning, they will have a monitor.
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
They no longer use a separate biped for campaign and multiplayer, so that's why the model can use Kat's arm variant.
