Why don't people like Reach?
So the amount of people who apparently have an issue with the Halo prequel is something that has been on my mind for some time. Let me start by saying nothing will ever come close to the origonal Halo CE for me, it was released when I was still in school (crucial to multiplayer because you still needed actual real life friends... that is until the origonal Live launched and 360 expanded the online gaming experience later on in my school years) and just has so many great memories attached to it (system link parties on the weekends, the start of RvB, first co-op game I had played, etc). While I also view Halo 2 and 3 as being better games I still thought Reach was a good game, it is not the best, but I really enjoyed it. It just bothers me because every time I try to talk about it I usually get "stop pretending it was good, it wasn't!" or something along those lines. And to make matters worse I have never been given a legitimate reason for why it was a bad game. Most of the time it's a complaint because they changed the multiplayer or changed the controls/mechanics and it doesn't feel like a Halo game. Now I might be missing something but which one of those takes away from the story or actual experience? Now sound off and tear me apart if you think I enjoyed a crappy game but give me a legitimate reason why it was bad, if you agree that it was a good game feel free to drop your kind words as well!

I had many problems with it. Campaign, great premise, horrible execution. Bad story. Conflicted with FoR. The way some characters acted. The way they died. Multiplayer ugh Though there were good things such as the art style. music, and an amazing main menu

2 RepliesI didn't read everything but Halo:Reach messed with the Halo books. The Pillar of Autumn never landed on Reach they were in space battling the covenant. Above Reach while most of the Spartan II battled on the ground protecting the orbital Mac round generators. While John and his two companions fought to get the data of a ship. In my opinion if Bungie went and just made The Fall of Reach a game I would of been so sucked in because that'd be a amazing campaign.

The campaign was bad and broke canon. I don't really care about MP.

I went ahead and moved this Gaming topic to #Gaming for you. Reach had a ton of little problems with various mechanics which compounded together to sour the experience over the long term. It wasn't a bad game, but it was clear to see the sorts of things holding it back. Bloom felt very inconsistant and it did little to balance the DMR. Armor Lock in general was a frustrating mess between mechanics like Plasma Grenade shedding and Vehicle Shredding and how long it lasted in general, it's what happens when you try to force a weak mechanic. Many of the maps had flow issues and Forge World could have probably been layed out better to support healthy maps over the long term.

I enjoy reach customs but I don't like the multiplayer. I do like halo 4 multiplayer but it's customs aren't as great. I mainly play customs, haven't been on halo 4 for months

I'm still playing it, Shithead. The most hours of game time for me is when playing Halo Reach. Next to Halo 2, of course.

I think that... [spoiler]#Gaming[/spoiler]

Not my favorite halo, but it's not bad at all. The story is okay. The MP is good imo; take out armor abilities, excluding sprint, and it would be great.
