Halo: Reach Discussion

[teh lag]

We've actually got something pretty much exactly along those lines planned in the near (as soon as HCE and the Release sections get tagged) future.

Halo Reach is fun, but the gameplay is very slow outside of close quarters. You never have a pure 1 vs 1 matchup with another player, rarely do I feel that I outplayed someone. It just takes way to long to kill people in Reach which results in tedious encounters.

I actually prefer the long stalking sessions. I think there is too much emphasis on close-quarters firefights, which is also forced upon players because the melee A.) is super powerful and B.) has a lunge to it making it easy.

I'd probably say Halo 2 and 3 had more close-quarters fighting going on, since the BR could be sprayed close-range and still be decently effective. Halo 2 had a huge lunge, too.. just my opinion though

I like the District 9 looking helmet.

BR is for sprayers w/melee players.

AR is also and has always been for the Sprayers with melee players (except in Halo 1). Guess what we spawn with.

What are you talking about, that's exactly what it was good for in Halo 1 too.

I never did that. I killed them with the gun by itself, as closing in for a melee was always more dangerous than it was rewarding. AR fire coupled with a well-placed grenade was the preferred killing method on PC, where as on XBOX the best way was to simply spray the target since the AR had some fantastically overpowered autoaim.

LOL, I said the battle rifle is a power weapon all round on bungie.net forums and this kid sent me the funniest message ever.

You just didnt know how to use the BR. You are the guy who prefers AR's over BR's. So when people pick up the BR in a game of Team Slayer you got owned. Thats is why you veto for BR's. Reach takes about 10 times less skill than H3 because you spawn with invis or armor lock. Please shut up and go play firefight.

This kid think he is a funny guy! And also his little message in his profile says take out ars.

Baawwww. Also it makes me wonder is why I won Team SWAT games a ton more in h3 using the br. Some people never cease to make me laugh

All the weapons were terrible in Halo 3. Halo 3 was terrible. Jesus Christ I hate bnet kids.
