What do you find most attractive about halo?

For me its the diversity and beauty of the maps. Halo is such a rich universe that the maps can be in any terrain and in any building. Something I've only really found else where in Unreal Tournament. GoW maps are dark and depressing and CoD are all set on earth, so they feel one dimensional. How bout you? Maybe its the guns, maybe its the game play, I don't know you tell me.

Why do they rarely use cover? [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXSbtQZgu4o]This[/url] is not devious or intelligence. Even without the Hologram, I only need the needle rifle, sword, or plasma pistol pepper to dispatch them. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Maiq especially the zealots[/quote][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MifAPCAql04]lolwut?[/url] They [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqAEC8qfRbo]fail[/url] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vycqY0wK5o]hard[/url]. Furthermore, I did not say Reach Elite AI. I said Reach AI. That includes the Jackals (damage sponge slow moving shields with haxed plasma pistol), Hunters (damage sponge campers who have ridiculous fuel rod blast radius and do nothing about an incoming vehicle), Brutes (damage sponge incompetents who stick each other and do a slow berserking charge, easily killed by needler and needle rifle), Noble Team and the troopers (severely nerfed, poor distractions). Not to mention how reactions are as limited/predictable as they are in Halo 2. Stick a Grunt or Jackal, he always panics or does nothing. Stick an Elite, he always berserks, charges, or does nothing. Whereas in CE, sticking a Grunt, Jackal, and Elite can make them try to get it off and making the Elite panic. I am not convinced by damage sponge bottomless clip mindlessly spamming enemies that don't even look out for their comrades. I am convinced by enemies that recognize projectiles and readily respond to it and [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz_SFa6tNHk#t=10m5s]recognize their comrades[/url], which clearly aren't the case in Reach (only needle rifle makes most enemies dive. Grenades do nothing without Tough Luck. And enemies rarely consider their allies, splattering them regardless. Lots of Wraiths have been known to do this). And let's not forget how firing your gun alerts every enemy in the area to you (rather than to just your location as in CE). No stealth at all in Reach. Camo does not help at all. The truth clearly is, Reach AI suck. They cheat and Noble Six is weak. Countless times I would have won if it weren't for Noble Six's slow movement speed and Elite's insane movement speed. And I will defend my assertions with personal evidence if I have to. Even if it means spending 6+ hours in a game that I hate. Even if it means putting up with massive amounts of bs and being screwed. [Edited on 09.01.2012 8:23 AM PDT]
