Sense alot of people in here seem to think the loadouts are unnecessary, Bungie should make a gametype called "Classic" where you start with a standard set of weapons. I have no problem with Bungie having a noobish grenade launcher after COD4, I'm just mad about how people will be using them. We already have a grenade spamming problem in Halo 3, now we have covenant and human grenade launchers! (Insert Expletive Here)!
-
Awesome, although I hope the Magnum isn't as useless as it is in Halo 3... I abandoned it because of it's reputation of getting me killed often..
-
Awsome update, Except for the load-outs.
-
april fools vidoc was quite hilarious. +1 for you bungie!
-

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leader Lintro Oh god this is horrible. This is exactly what i feared for halo. When they mentioned the load-outs i assumed that they were just the armor abilities. I thought about it at first it might be ok, bungie could make it so there is defensive types or human and elite load-outs but its just going to make the game uneven. The entire reason i played halo is because you spawn with standard weapons. We don't need the load-outs, that's what custom games are for. This game is just starting to look more like cod. I am disappointed bungie, i am sorry.[/quote]As long as they still have weapons on the field like in all the others I'm good.

I don't know I've been a hardcore spartan since halo 2 but with the new bad ass elites I might have to switch btw do elites get other abilities beside roll?
-
halo reach doesnt make sense to me why cant all the classes sprint and should be like halo 3 & 2 because you should find get the jet pack by unlocking it to give people a challenge and invisibility. you should not have to choose a class [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] urk Dig your toes in.

and the full game comes out on MY birthday! :D

Great update. I can't wait for the beta! It's cool that each weapon has a defined purpose again, and all of the new weapons sound great, especially the one that combines the sentinel beam and beam rifle. The only thing I don't really like is the overheating warthog gun, but we'll see how that plays out. Also I didn't like the idea of loadouts, but it's good that they can change them and might leave them out of some playlists or keep them mostly to custom games. [Edited on 04.04.2010 6:27 PM PDT]

r u a employee if u are in reach is being an elite online better than being a spartan like better shields,speed and other stats bcuz that would be kinda cheap. sry no offence btw can i have recon please. halo is the greatest game EVER cod sucks super balls gt= khorne117

I think loadouts might be refreshing and hope that with them the side arm wont be replaced by another weapon like carrying rocket launcher and fuel rod cannon. Just when he ran out of rockets or reloading he quickly switches over to another all powerful weapon. It should be main Weapon and side arm with side arm never being replaced unless with another side arm much like in Killzone

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leader Lintro Please listen Bungie, Halo will die and loadouts are the poison.[/quote] he is right bungie

I hoped they would improve the Plasma rifle, not replace it entierly in Multiplayer, adding a slight stun effect as in Halo 1. Anyway, I like what I see :) [Edited on 04.04.2010 3:47 PM PDT]

This is going to be the best game I've ever played!
-
Its great that the elites are even awesomer this time around. The new weapons are freakin sick! I know im gonna be using the plasma repeater all the time. And to all you complaing about the 'nade launcher, COD got to it first, so what? just enjoy shooting grenades at your enemies shamed face. THE ELITS ARE GONNA BE FREAKIN AWESOME!
-
thats just it. It's not like they are changing a few things here and there like between halo 2 and halo 3, they are changing everything. it's like they are trying to create a whole new game. its like a combination of Halo, Gears of War, and MW2. Personally i hate the latter 2, but I love Halo. I love Halo because it's not those 2 games. We've all played a bajillion Halo matches because we love Halo. The Halo franchise is one of the best franchises ever because it is not GoW and MW2.
-
I'm curious to know what the armor ability button is. Also the name "Pro Pipe" is comically close to "Noob Tube". We'll see how people will use it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wiizpig Jesus blam, these whining 8 years old american kids are starting to get on my nerves even if I'm used to trolls. What did you want, Halo 2.5? that's Halo 3. oh wait, maybe you wanted Halo 3.2... luckily that's not going to be made. In topic: Best update this year, thanks Bungie, can't wait to try the best FPS ever with some great new features inspired by other games. this is going to be fantastic.[/quote] Well, in fact i'm not a kid. And i'm not whining. And i'm not american. You dare pretend that we cry, or complain, like kids, when you write that this game will be the best FPS ever made before having it in your hands ? Oh yeah, that's so more an adult way of thinking ! We're not crying because that's not going to be a "Halo 3.2" . In fact, almost all of us are not complaining, but worrying. We do not have any judgement on this game 'till we haven't play it, we just explain that we have some fear. My first fear is focused on the fact that Bungie presents "Armor Abilities" as the only new equipements. What about equipement on battlefield ? Is it going to desappear, whereas it was very good strategic things in real and competitive BTB games (or Squad Battle games) ? About loadouts : some guys think they'll make a new tactic element in the game. I don't pretend to know that's wrong, but having to fight for a "defender" weapon and return in his base to protect the objective is also a tactic element. In fact, i'm part of a BTB championship (yes i swear), which is very interesting (look at ilovebtb.com if you're curious), and i worry that "individual equipement" and powerful weapons tend to kill Halo as we play it in this community : like a collective game. Previously, we thought like "so you 2, go there and take the bubbleshield ; you, take the camo and take the flag ; then you leave the enemy base by there, were the previous two guys will wait for you with the bubble in order to go back to our base" . With Reach, i fear that will be : "so you, you choose the Camo Load-Out ; you, take the shield one, and each guy goes on his side and doesn't think about the collective aspect" , you see what i mean ? But, like you say all, Bungie guys are clever, and i hope they won't forget us. Tepec

I know lots of people complaining bout the way its looking cod ish but who could say it wouldnt be cool to call in a vulture strike or some crazy stuff like that.The new things coming into halo reach are what takes alot of the repeativeness out of a game.I enjoy MW2 and Halo they are both great games but Infinity Ward is no Bungie by any means.Bungie is a patron friendly studio that takes pride in its gamers and sincere to its loyal fans.Bungie has a great website where new and what not are posted regularly(by the way for the fans).Unlike said other studio only has a tweet section that my get posted to every other day which is usually something stupid other than regarding a game at hand.Maybe peeps are scared of change but im lovin it.O yea i hope that chess game really is an option on the final copy that'd be bada**.Crap almost forgot has there been any word on special edition stuff for reach.Got to save up some cash for it and the sooner i know the better.

If i read their Bios correct their shoulw be one Spartan II on the team, whether his shielding is equal or not is a question. But i believe Bungie going back to the orignal shielding that we saw in the first halo which means as state before wont be as resilent as master chiefs from halo 2 and three. I believe he was only Spartan 2 that recieved the mark v armor...or was mark VI. Bah i get confused with all the armor varients the odst are much easier they just modify theirs. lol

[quote] [b]Posted by:[/b] zExecutive Dear Bungie, Read your own books, Spartan's have more advanced shielding technology then elites do. Elites are just ridiculously stronger and can therefor take more bullets. If you have read any of your books that feature spartan II you would know this. Please take this into consideration.[/quote] Dear zExecutive, Read this article or any article on Reach, Spartan II may have more advanced shielding technology, but you play as a Spartan III in this game. Spartan IIIs are not as well equipped as Spartan IIs. If you have read any of the books that feature spartan III you would know this. Please learn how to read. ^_^ [Edited on 04.04.2010 1:22 PM PDT]

The plasma repeater isn't in campaign? The stupid plasma rifle is? Fail. Epic fail. My opinion.

In topic: Best update this year, thanks Bungie, can't wait to try the best FPS ever with some great new features inspired by other games. this is going to be fantastic.[/quote] couldnt have put it better myself. also it looks awsum, my only complaints are ppl being able to start with heavies or grenade launchers, thats guna cause one huge exploding map, and making so many things to stop vehicles, thats guna be anoying, i luved the vehicles, i hope ur guna counter that in some way. other than that im hopin ull make a great game and it looks like u will, also hopin for the ranks to go completely (they suc) and that u can get credits in campaign, even if u get allot less, i dont play online very often as i cant afford gold ;{ but good luck with reach it looks great, and my complaints ar minor, i wuld still get the game if they werent fixed XD.
