Very informative.

Hell that's not even a real "technically." But people's opinions are going to vary from one extreme to the other on both the X and Y axis. One person may feel Reach is absolutely perfect for them, with little to no flaws. Another might still feel Reach is for them but will recognize, and point out, flaws and wish them to be changed. Another might play Reach simply because they can't let go of Halo despite hating many, many parts of the Reach gameplay.[/quote] Put in a whatever its called : some people like chocolat others like vanilla instead. Also Santa was a fictional character made by coca cola based on an actual hero who gave poor children presents (but that guy was from spain).

Pretty much anyone who would reply to a well thought-out post with "adapt".

I once saw a Revenant fly across Hemorreage.

A1 or you're bad. The game has issues, it isn't perfect. However, it's enjoyable and much more decent than some believe. Yeah bloom can be annoying, but apart from that I don't really have a problem with much since I play Arena and there is no AL.

Thank you OP, for explaining this in ways I could not. I find myself as an A1.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] xBAMxBAM I honestly think that when people read someones post, they need to look at it from an unbiased point of view first. (This only goes for well formulated posts. Not "reech sux b/c it sux" posts.) What I try to do is look at someones post from a neutral standpoint and try to understand what they're saying. I then formulate my opinion, whether it agrees or disagrees, with that person. I think that would help out a lot of people. If you don't like the game, that's fine. If you do like the game, that as well is fine. I try to respect everyones opinion on the game. [/quote] *sneezes* Bless me.

You forgot the T1s. aka Trolls

B1 here. The amount of A2s on this forum is shocking though.

It's like a separate game that I've come to enjoy just like I did Halo 3. I hate to sound like a reach forum kid, but I adapted. btw I love jet pack lol. so retarded throwing something in that allows a player to completely ignore key map design elements and just jump around. i abuse it heavily.

I personally like them. I think they added a new way to how Halo is played. Now you have to think about what AA that person has when you're engaging them. I like that added strategy to the game. With that being said, I do believe that some AA's could use some tweaking. Personally I don't like AL. I'd rather have Overshield pick up on the map over AL.

Again, "adapt" is often misused, but it can be a very blunt yet viable argument. [/quote]Well, I don't want to get into an adapt/DMR bloom argument here, but I will address this. There are many gametypes where you start off with the DMR, and it's inevitable that you're going to get into a DMR battle with someone, (you don't always have the option to switch out your DMR for another weapon) and when that happens, there's a good amount of luck that will go into winning that battle because of the randomness of bloom. There is nothing you can do to adapt to a random situation. Now if DMR bloom actually increased the skill-gap, and there were people complaining about it, then it would be a viable argument, because "adapt" could just be another way of saying "get better at controlling bloom to give you the upperhand in a battle". However it is not a viable argument when DMR bloom is as random as it is. Saying "adapt" to that, is like telling someone to adapt to a coin toss.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] l SecretAgent l There is nothing you can do to adapt to a random situation.[/quote] This is completely untrue as nearly, if not wholly, the entirety of gameplay is based around the random actions of players. But we're going to go in circles here. I understand your meaning and where you are coming from, I agree with it for the most part however I am perhaps more general in my views while you may be more streamlined.

That's one of the good things about Reach. The netcode is much better. I really didn't like the BR spread in Halo 3, but that was the games only major flaw IMO. I see what you're saying about it being a separate game experience and all, but considering Halo is really the only game I play and truly like, I still can't really enjoy Reach because of how much it's diverged from the original gameplay.
