Defend Halo Reach Here
I love Reach. Personally my favorite Halo. And a lot of others favorites. But also one of the most hated. I want everyone who enjoys it to list reasons why it's great. To show the people who hate it why its loved. I'd say because it has the most content and flexibility of any Halo. So many modes with different variety and everything in it is solid. Yes armor lock and bloom can occasionally be frustrating. But hardly enough to ruin matchmaking.

I remember playing halo 2-3 and wishing I had a single shot BR. That's why I fell in love with reach.

5 RepliesJust read ms patched Reach, backwards compatible, for the xbone. Supposedly it runs better on the one then the 360. Gonna check tonite after work.

Reach was its own interesting game, it was far more different than anything that came before it, doesn't compare to the older Halo games though.
-
6 RepliesI've seen several comments saying Reach is overrated. Um, what? That genuinely confuses me. Because I was pretty sure most people hated it with the burning passion of a thousand suns just because of bloom, armor lock, and breaking canon. (I'm not saying those are the only reasons, but they're the largest and most common given.) So color me surprised seeing people calling Reach overrated. That would imply a drastic change of opinion in the six years after it's release.

Best mp, firefight 2nd best forge (gotta give 1st to halo 5) Good campaign Awesome customization (armor)

Dat firefight mode. Infinite waves of elites vs an invincible, high speed spartan with a bottomless clip shotgun
-
Edited by joibasta: 10/9/2016 1:28:57 PMI love everything about Halo Reach because it's the best Halo out there.
-
Why would the arguably best Halo game need to be defended?
-
I absolutely loved Reach.
-
17 RepliesI'll never forgive Bungie for the retconned story that completely null and voided the original 'Fall of Reach' book.

2 RepliesWanna hear a joke? Armor lock is balanced.
-
In terms of amount of content, it was quite possibly the best Halo game. From competitive to Firefight to Forge, Reach had an impressive amount of content.

Edited by Herakles: 10/3/2016 6:35:58 PMBest armour customization Balanced multiplayer Great story

THE ARMOR and the ranking system!!! It was super grindy obviously, but it was something to work toward. Inheritor was a symbol, a testament to how much you put into the game. I still look on Inheritors with the utmost reverence. And the armor wasn't all new and shiny and plastic-y like it was in 3, 4, and 5. it was roughed up and used; it had some character to it. Still looks the best in my opinion. Players were able to be unique, yet the customization was still simple. And, that forge. So simple, so fun, so great! And the best machinimas came out of Reach's forge+theatre! Just take a look at Rise of the Spartans!:D

1 ReplyI loved it because of space battle.

4 Replies-favorite campaign to playthrough, every mission was fun -gloomy vibe, you know what's gonna happen. -each spartan had personality -emile -jorge -Carter -Kat -Noble 6 -firefight was fun -best art style -loved the armor -Cr was genius -Invasion was genius -sprinting and jet pack were fun to use for surprise attacks -DMR>BR -gave us assassinations -forge was simple and fun -no shooter has yet to have character customization as good.

It was fun, argument over.

6 RepliesIt's still leagues better than Halo 4 or 5. So there's that.

1 ReplyI like reach. But i would rather talk about how much i hate H4 and H5. [spoiler]Make Halo great again! Get rid of 343![/spoiler]
-
Halo reach was the last halo Bungie worked on, so it was the last good one.
-
5 RepliesHalo Reach > Halo 4
-
1 ReplyGreat story! Made the covenant look extremely dangerous and powerful. 5 of the 6 Spartans died while struggling to deal with them which also made the master chief look even more bad ass. Overall good game, pvp could have been a little better, invasion was extremely fun I hope 343 brings it back sometime. Perhaps as a warzone variant that has a team Of elites vs Spartans with ai all over the place

5 RepliesEdited by High Charity: 10/5/2016 5:00:19 AMReach is the literal worst "Halo" game ever made, by far. My favorite part was when it was over because of how boring and drawn out it was, with zero interesting characters who had a sum total IQ equivalent of a toaster.
-
Edited by Rolyap: 10/5/2016 10:39:22 AMNot much to defend considering it had the worst movement and gunplay mechanics in the entire franchise. I guess the customization was pretty good. Edit: almost forgot the hopelessly unbalanced vehicle sandbox...

1 ReplyEdited by wojo55: 10/5/2016 6:36:13 PMIt wasn't a bad game its just an awful halo game Good campaign even though it broke canon but one of the worst if not the worst mp halo game. Did a 180 and made unbalanced and casual
