Why isnt Halo 4 as fun as Reach?

Im one of the minority who actually thought, From an MP standpoint mind you, That Halo Reach was a great game, I adored it in fact, Much better than Halo 3's -blam!- MP (Again, I know thats not an opinion shared by most of you, But anyway) Halo 4 just doesnt hold my attention as much, Dont get me wrong its a great game but it just lacks... I dont know, While playing it I just feel like its not something I can do for a long period of time any more, Reach was far more fun and exciting and just generally entertaining. What the hell is Halo 4 missing?

  • I called that this would happen months ago. I said it. "Once Halo 4 is released, everyone will go back and talk about how much better reach was." You people are laughably predictable.

  • I think you must be on drugs to think that Reach's multiplayer was better than 4's. Reach was borderline unplayable with how slow the pace of the game was.

I can wait for that at the moment though. Honestly, I'm just happy we have good looking blocks and ways to manipulate gravity.

  • I agree with the better than H3 part. I think Reach was the most solid overall game. Granted, I only played Objective and I think they had that balanced pretty well. Can't speak for the rest of the playlists. H4 is frustrating simply because it is different, I think. I mean, at its core its the same game, save for a few small additions. Small additions however, make the aforementioned "same game" have even more possibilites. Perhaps it''s just because we aren't used to H4 yet, but, I think in time it will prove to be fun. It took me awhile to get hooked on Reach, but I happened to play it the whole 2 year life cycle it had. H4 has only been out like what, 2 months?

  • Halo 4 is missing that teamwork element, especially in BTB. It used to be a rush for the power weapons and a struggle for map control. Now, power weapons spawn every where and when you rack up enough points you and the enemy get power weapons that destroy a sense of tactics. I'm not saying that everyone did this in Reach, but team-oriented groups do it all the time. Halo 4 is more individual oriented.

  • For me it's the objectives. Even though i didn't care for most of the features or maps, and absolutly hated the DMR, I still had fun conjuring up strategies and doing what i could to win when it was an objective game. But in halo 4 they took out a lot of great gametypes replacing them with a few decent gametypes, plus the map designs are nearly all designed specifically for slayer, several maps are almost painful to play ctf on for anyone who cares about winning. The whole game is just centered around individual focused slayer which is just boring and repetitive to me. Which is a shame since Halo 4's balancing and sandbox are probably the best in the series, save for not having a falcon. [Edited on 01.07.2013 6:02 PM PST]
