Because i've been playing basically the same game since the original xbox with small changes. The maps are just repeats of previous maps. It's a fun game, but I can't play Halo as a main game without getting bored quick. |

I will say though, he doesn't seem to get the overall mechanics of the Halo games.....he's complaining about camping (>implying he didn't play the shit out of MW2). "I like the melee system in Halo 3 better." What? It was terrible in 3, you could lunge with an Assault Rifle, guess he's used to Commando...lawl. "The Sword is more over-powered in Reach than 3" Ummm, no. Just no. You can block the Sword attacks with a regular weapon, and the Shotgun is about 700,000,000 times better than the Sword. I will agree that the maps that Bungie designed for Reach (Disregarding the remakes) are for certain the weakest showing in any Halo game. "The hit detection is terrible." Okay, I paraphrased that, but he's partly right. It's not terrible, more inconsistent than terrible, but what do you expect? The game has been out for a week..... "The grenades are over-powered." That statement right there was enough to tell me that this dude hasn't played a Halo game prior to Reach. This is the weakest grenades have ever been in any game of the series. You literally have to be standing on the grenade for it to do sufficient damage. "Halo doesn't cater to new players, it makes it easier for people to do well, if they run with their team." I dunno, Wings, maybe it doesn't cater to new players because Halo has been out since the Xbox has, maybe thats why. Once again, he's too used to COD in which you usually get the best weapon in the game at levels 1-10 (COD4-M16, WAW-MP40, MW2-FAMAS, UMP). Let's be realistic here, does it make any sense at all if someone who plays the game for the 1st time is able to hold their own against a player of, say, MLG talent? That's what I thought, no, not at all. People who have been playing the game for longer SHOULD BE BETTER THAN THE NEW PEOPLE. It just makes sense. But, he's used to MW2 where if someone is better than you, you just switch to Danger Close+OMA, and camp at the back of the map, and gets a killstreak that ends the entire fucking game. Oh wait....he was the one who pioneered the whole DC+OMA thing, LMFAO. That statement about teamwork is probably top 5 most retarded things I've ever heard someone say in my entire life, no bullshit. Look at this statement again: "It makes it easier for people who run with their team to do well." No shit, bro, that's why the word "Team" is in the game, you are supposed to help and support you're team (once again, used to COD). And when a team camps, you actually have to communicate with you're team and come up with a semi-intelligent plan that doesn't just consist of changing a class. Getting off of picking his rant apart, imo, Halo takes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more skill than COD. I know I'm a Halo fanboy, but I have put in about 40 total days in COD4 and MW2 alone, I know how the games work. You just find the weapon that is the most OP, and camp, get killstreaks, win game and never help team. One can pick up an entire understanding of COD within about 2-3 days of playing imo, whereas in Halo, it takes a long time to gain an at least good enough understanding to hang with just the slightly above-average players, nevermind the MLG players. So many different factors: weapon spawns, weapon damage, melee range and damage, map hotspots, player spawns, grenade damage....in addition to spots players like to hide, and with Reach, the armor abilities, and MLG, has no radar at all, it's all about communication....teamwork. Don't get the wrong idea, I don't hate the COD series (I reserved Black Ops, and plan to put in at least 10 days into it, like I do with every COD game). I just like Halo better; it takes more talent to be good at. Also, I'm not dissing anyone who likes COD better than Halo, that's you're thing, but don't rant about a game who has: 1. Only been out for a week 2. A game series that has been around for about 9 years, and this you're 1st experience with it 3. You exposed the world to DC+OMA, a thing that one can say single-handedly destroyed MW2 tl;dr: WoR is someone who is new to the series, and ranted about it, and by listening to his rant, I can tell he has no understanding about how Halo's mechanics work. He tried to play it like COD and Battlefield, it didn't work, and he didn't even try to learn the mechanics of the prior games. Some of the things he says I do agree with, but more of the things he does say are just so retarded that it hurts my brain. Reach has been out for a week, and Bungie has already announced a patch will be out in a couple of months, it took IW months for them to even announce a patch, even longer to be released. Super tl;dr: Bungie>IW Reach>MW2 I'm a Halo fanboy, and I'm mad as hell. Wings is mad cuz he's bad....MADBAD @Indy: This is what a mad level of a trillion means: rant post. And, I didn't even wanna touch on all the things I wanted to, because it was getting too long even for me. |

But yeah, a lot of people who have never even played Halo are complaining about things that ARE PART OF THE GAME. Grenades aren't a gimmick like they are in MW2. Grenades are supposed to be used a LOT. And yeah, they're way better than they were in other Halo games. Melee is 10x better in this game than in Halo 3. (Assault Rifle run forward melee) The ONLY problem with this game, is like Bedlam said. The actual maps. Countdown, boardwalk and Zealot have pretty bad map design imo. The only maps I always like to see pop up are The Cage, Reflection, Asylum and Pinnacle. (Coagulation and that other really big map are pretty fun too, but I'm talking about Team Slayer 4v4) Swordbase and Powerhouse are decent. |
