Halo: Reach Discussion

i dont think 3 round burst weapons have any place in competitive gaming. has anyone ever seen a GOOD result to a 3 round burst weapon ? (stopping power + m16 doesnt count )

im definitely in agreement with warsaw though. halo 1 is still my favorite, but reach is by far the second best multiplayer experience imo. i havent enjoyed a halo game (besides CE) in a long time, and reach has been surprisingly fun for me. loving the tank headshot

Solution to all balance problems: lag.

Hey, it's what made Halo 1 balanced %-)

"M16 + Stopping Power" and "good" don't belong in the same sentence.

[Donut]

my point exactly. i know we have (had?) one member here in particular that would disagree with me on the m16+stopping power thing. thats all an aside though. point is DMR > BR, and thus less MLG whoring. for now at least

[p0lar_bear]

MLG is too busy whining about the fact that they lost their bullet hose that net them easy kills in SWAT. Once they suck it up and realize how to somehow spam the fuck out of it with impeccable accuracy like most of the strafing profags I come across, it'll be whored out to the max. As Pooky said, it's Halo's ubiquitous medium-range human headshot weapon.

I don't know what all the complaining's about. I love Reach, and I feel like each Halo game has been a strong improvement on the last in terms of gameplay. Halo 1 is still fun, but it feels so... boring compared to Reach. And come on, comparing CE to Reach? It's PC vs console, apples and oranges. The mouse makes it a completely different game.

e: Oh, or were you referring to CE as in Combat Evolved, not Custom Edition? That duplicate acronym always confuses me.

rob i was referring to halo 1 in general.

M16 on burst (or depending on the model variant, full-auto) is shit unless you REALLY are just trying to spray 'n pray. The DMR is the UNSC's true M16/M4 set to semi and it's fucking great.

Not saying the M16/M4s are fucking great IRL tho.

Wow, Hunters are full of BS:

That melee is a one-hit kill on me, despite completely missing by a wide margin.
