I am really angry with the reach community right now.
You ungrateful bastards.
I just saw the comment 'Bungie doesn't listen to its fans' and I am now so angry that I had to make my point.
BUNGIE. IS. THE. BEST. DEVELOPER. IN. TERMS. OF. FAN. INTERACTION. FOR. ANY. SHOOTER.

You guys are so ungrateful.
I am seeing 'Halo 3 was better'
THIS IS SO WRONG! I played some halo 3 last night and it was terrible! I stuck with halo 3 for THREE FRIKIN YEARS and last night I couldn't believe how crap it was. Game on Last resort, it was awful. Reach is incredible. It is fast-paced.
All of you Black-ops lovers like it for one simple reason: Kills take 1 second. Meaning if you don't need to work for kills. In CODBLOPS, you just hold the trigger (or r1 button in the case of ps3 fans who have nothing else to play which is why the game has so many players and play on a controller with no triggers) and get the kill INSTANTLY. You don't have to earn the best weapons. You spawn with them. So there's no weapon control, because if player X is owning you with the sniper, you just hit start and click 'Z0MG I WANT SNIPER' and you get it.

Reach has its flaws like Armour lock (which needs to be toned down and this is a widely debated, but accepted, fact) but believe me, like other players have said, every halo game (besides Halo CE because it was offline on xbox) has been very bad at the start and improved dramatically with the first title update.
Title updates don't just come like Harry potter waving his frikin wand, bungie has to listen to all our responses and take the time to get everything together. There will probably be an update around the release of the noble map pack so that they can add the achievements and this WILL HAVE CHANGES TO REACH.
And you trolls, if you come on our forums saying 'Reach sucks' THAT IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE MY -blam!--ING OPINION ON REACH. AS LONG AS THERE ARE 15 OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE I AM HAPPY TO PLAY REACH UNTIL THEY SHUT IT DOWN.

I am having a blast playing reach, and I am hearing things like. 'Halo sucks'. I responded 'Go play Black Ops then'. They said 'Shut up halo fanboy, halo reach is crap.' But you know what, THEY PLAYED 10 MORE GAMES WITH ME.
What other shooters can you use a frikin' jetpack in? Huh? Exactly. No forge in Black-ops. No Firefight in Medal of Honour. No Theater mode in... um... Killzone.
Just be grateful for the amazing -blam!- this game has given us. And, just to prove how confident I am, I can answer ANY argument about reach with a positive response. Go.

I enjoyed your post, and agree that many of the "fans" simply complain about EVERYTHING. However justified they may feel, I feel that Reach is an exceptional game and arguably the best in the series in terms of story and campaign. I believe people are upset with Reach for two main reasons: the lack of a numbered ranking system and the difficultly and precision required to DMR. Regardless if there is an update released by the developers, players will still be complaining. [/quote]

I hated Halo 3 with the burning passion of a thousand suns. Reach made me look back at 3 with a rather unwelcome fondness. Your point? Also I'm fairly sure my $150 was gratitude enough, thanks. If it were free then I could understand where your "ungrateful" argument would hold water. Alas, the game was not free and as such I can complain about the lack of decent multiplayer maps and poor asset usage if I so desire...and I will. When I paid for Reach, I was under the impression I was getting a smooth, functional campaign ride. Instead, I get a campaign that slows down (sometimes to a temporary stop) on a regular basis and has random occurrences (plasma grenade explosion on the ground when no grenade, primed or otherwise, was present). When I paid for Reach, I was under the impression I would have an amazing, fully tested multiplayer experience with an abundance of well-designed maps. Instead, I get a multiplayer experience that feels sluggish, and whose only merits are a credit system that only serves for a useless aesthetic. I get a selection of multiplayer maps with broken spawns, piss-poor weapon placement, and an all-around untested feel. To add to this untested feel is the simple premise of a split-screen multiplayer mode that was poorly executed. If you play with four people on a single console in a local game, the draw distance is horrible. You can't see an enemy vehicle until it has already splattered you. That is unacceptable on the grounds that it renders that aspect of the game virtually unplayable and you don't have to be a tech/videogame connoisseur to figure that out. The very basic principle of a game is that it should at least be [b]playable.[/b] In addition to this, there are also game-breaking flaws with online multiplayer. For example, in the near-certainty of a host migration during an objective game like CTF or Assault, if the objective is away yet not in the possession of a player at the time of the migration, the objective will be reset at the end of the migration. That is a colossal flaw and like the draw distance in split-screen, you don't have to be a genius to know that that is not acceptable in a game of this calibur. So yes, I paid for the game and these are my grievances with it. I have every right to voice them. While some of these problems cannot be fixed (i.e. the frame-rate slowdowns in campaign), I am going to continue to push for the ones that can be fixed. Anybody who says that I have no right to complain about something I bought needs to learn how property ownership and feedback works. Feedback is one of the reasons this forum exists. While a lot of suggestions don't come through in an orthodox fashion, they still should be examined at the very least. Good day to you. [Edited on 11.12.2010 9:14 PM PST]
