I'm definetley gonna play on april 14. I was wondering if, the visual flair will be in the beta?
-
Not that we dont all already know all about it, but us shotgun fans might like having a page about it to go along with the rest of the weapons...
-
damn right. i'm gonna be a machinima director myself soon so i really hope you can lower wepons over xbox live, because that would give machinima directors who want more than 4 people in there machinima a boost to heaven
-
i bet the maps on reach will be twice as big as halo 3 maps. that one looks ace i cant wait to play it
-
Those maps remind me more of the halflife/portal series rather than halo's but I guess they're just reinventing their art style in a positive way. 2 thumbs up from me. [Edited on 04.10.2010 1:35 PM PDT]

Looks good and can't wait for the good times to roll!
-
I love Urk.... is that wrong? Cos im a dude? P.S Love you urk *in hushed voice*
-
Dude, I have an Idea. Go to a friends house, recover your profile on his xbox, and play a round together. It should work.

Halo 3 is pretty and all, and has great sound effects which is what makes it fun, but when it really comes down to strategy, its a damn bad game. Now I will admit I may have been exaggerating in saying "the worst" but its not that far in terms of strategy. Everyone pretty much does the same stuff every game, and uses the same weapons, and same strategies, nobody has to respond differently based on situation really. So halo 3 is pretty much not at all about being on your feet which is what a first person shooter should be.
-
Nice update. Hopefully I'll see you in Halo 2 on that fateful day Bungie! >:)
-
Ah yes! I love all these updates that give out info for Reach! Can't wait to play Halo 2 with you, good sirs!
-
*Drools*

Awesome update - the maps look really really good - a lot like the sort of diversity the halo 2 ones had :') Will be there on the 14th if I can redownload all the maps again - the countless hours of fun I had with that in my prime is unbelievable. Like seriously. I remember being able to play hog wars for 2 hours straight with a friend over xbox live on coagulation. Tower of Power custom games had some of the funniest moments of my life, let alone gaming life (sounds sad I know, but seriously lol, such good memories). And then zombies on foundation - how could you forget it :D I haven't really found the same sort of custom game feel to halo 3 that halo 2 had - it might be the change in community or whatever (I remember every matchmaking game you heard the 'n word' atleast 6 times, and xbox live was so much more liberal back then, maybe allowed easier friend making or something :p). I dunno, you just don't seem to find as many 16 player custom games. Halo reach looks set to be great though, really can't wait for it ^^

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] urk [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Pokezilla Linked Ah, I sure am lovin' all the info. Nice update. However, when you said "we'll give a piece of Reach visual flair to those who play with us" (or something along those lines) did you mean those who literally are put in a match with you, or just for everyone who plays Halo 2? =P[/quote] Everyone who plays, period.[/quote] What about those of us who continue to play Halo 2 as well as Halo 3? Do you we get maybe, something a little extra?

Yeah it's gonna be nice not having to wait 5-10 minutes for a match... :) I tried playing H2 the other day but my anxiety got the best of me and couldn't stand waiting for a match any more and put in H3...
-
This looks so good. I have been having such a bad weekend but i can always count on bungie to cheer me up. Simile face. Cant wait till May 3rd, kick some overpowered elites ass.
-
Awesome update !!!
-
Oooh look, this is the part where we see the new multiplayer maps.
-
The graphics and textures for the maps look really good, but the armor abilities aren't that impressive, I mean common Sprint? That seems really uncreative and boring, it seems like Bungie is trying to make us like it through the whole update, anyone get that vibe?
-
reach is a cool place to make machinima
-
lol awesome these maps will give machinma a boost to heaven alright!!!
-
Nice update! but i read most of it from the IGN article. And i really like that the timer remains if you walk outside the map boundary, i thought that players would exploit it otherwise.
-
I've basically never played Halo 2 online, but it's still going to be sad when it's gone.
-
Man, I'm gonna miss Halo 2, Hopefully I'll see you guys the 14th.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Qbix89 Urk, I think I love you.[/quote] Judas! Glad to see Halo 2 players will be getting some love. The screens of the maps look beautiful. =) [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CrazyPostaLBoB [/quote] If Halo 3 is the worse game you have ever played in your life then you need to play more games.
