Halo: Reach Discussion

Jetpacks with swords as a new special gametype? I think so.

Yeah swords and rocket launchers with jetpacks would make a fun gametype. But rockets in H3 and even in this ViDoc seem to explode near you... They don't even have to hit you, lol. Can't have them going over your shoulder or anything.

Anyway, this game is the game that Halo 3 should have been.

Wtf?

Notice that odd animation glitch (left arm) on the red player?

Or was that something caused by the gif compiler?

It was the video. If it was an error with the gif, the camera panning would also be interrupted.

[Heathen]

yeesh, that is a hell of an oversight bungie.

[thehoodedsmack]

I don't like the idea of inescapable assassinations. All I can imagine is that it's going to cause glitchy animations if you get killed mid-way through, akin to being killed as you're climbing over something in MW2.

[FRain]

You don't necessarily have to use those assassination animations however. You can just do your button press whack with your elbow melee. But stabbing with your knife is still cooler.

[Teltaur]

Actually, Bungie's planning on getting rid of normal melee assassinations, unless there's a major complaint about the current system during the beta.

[FRain]

Where did you read that? The current system is if you are holding down the button you assassinate. If you just push the button you just do a standard melee.

I'd love to know where you read this.

It's bound to be fixed, it's probably just not polished yet. Did you see the Elite hand on the sticky-grenade anti-vehicle gun? That was even worse. No way they're shipping with that stuff.

[sevlag]

The anti-splatter thing looks wonderful, the jetpack will play well with rockets.

What i don't like is that they're still sticking to a halo 3 ish scorpion tank

I wonder if elites will get armor permutations (more than in gaylo 3)
