Why did Halo loyalists hate Reach?
It was Bungie's last gift to the online matchmaking world. I adored it, along with Halo 2 and 3...
The only reason I ask is because the Crucible is brutal enough to make me go back to it, just to get that rush again.
**edit** I thoroughly enjoyed the game. I thought it was a fitting way to bow out of the Halo saga. A prequel is hard to pull off, and at the end of the campaign when you're just fighting off certain death... that was sick. A far cry from Master Chief saving the day yet again.
The matchmaking was as good as any other also. It EVOLVED. Yeah bloom sucked a little and armor lock drove you insane, but adding sprint was huge. To be able to spawn and sprint to the area of the map you just died in and put one bullet in the guy you just lost an epic battle with was totally satisfying. I guess I'm saying I don't understand why Reach never gets the credit it deserves. And I don't understand why the Crucible seems like it was made by a different group of people entirely.

Edited by BigMurii: 9/18/2015 3:47:15 AMThere were plenty things wrong with Reach, but it's like that with every game. I realize the faults but I pass them over because of the great time and experiences the game has given me.

Oh boy it had its faults, but man did the customs game nights overshadow the issues. I always had a blast getting on and being invited to custom games and having fun with buds and getting to know people through customs :)
-
I enjoyed reach. Love the planet and the lore.

1 ReplyIt was too much fun for them to handle

I loved Reach and played it more than any other Halo game. People just don't like it cause they didn't like the changes, but I was cool with them.
-
I loved reach it was amazing!

[quote]A prequel is hard to pull off, and at the end of the campaign when you're just fighting off certain death... that was sick.[/quote] I don't have a lot to add on this topic but I totally agree with this. Just thinking about this ending makes me want to play Reach again. Right off the top of my head I can't think of a video game with a cooler ending than that.
-
I love Halo Reach. It's my favorite
-
2 RepliesI loved Reach I guess people didn't like armor abilities or using your own spartan for story mode Or the badass assassinations I dunno, reach was and still is amazing
-
Reach was and still is the best in the franchise.
-
5 RepliesBack when Reach came out I was all about Halo, I brushed up on lore, games and I loved it. I really didn't care about the books but then Halo 4 came and all that died.
-
3 RepliesI always say it was Last, Best Halo game before it all why downhill. Story was good MP was amazing, Invasion was and is the best game mode they've made besides infection. Customs are a blast Forge 2.0 is the best version Haters are idiots cuz they think the Title Update was good and didn't ruin the game.
-
I loved Invasion, so much. Best time I've had in a multiplayer game in a long time.
-
5 RepliesPersonally, Reach was my favorite of the series. I've played and enjoyed the franchise since CE on launch day, and I think that Reach is the pinnacle of the franchise's development and natural evolution as technology has improved over the years. I still hold Reach as my favorite Halo. I still also see Reach as the last Halo game. What 343 released is not Halo.

3 RepliesBungie Reach > 343i fuсked up Reach

1 ReplyI liked it, better then the pieces of crap that came after it
-
1 ReplyWho even dare to say that Halo: Reach was terrible, because we all know that it was a kickass game...
-
I thought it was awesome, I knew that what happened on Reach was tragic, and yet I had to play through the story to watch it unfold.
-
Edited by Onxide: 9/17/2015 2:08:49 PMIt didn't feel like "Halo" to me. For one reason is because the Forerunners weren't even mentioned in that game, it was too militaristic and only focused on humanity against the Covenant. Besides, the story and characters were just awful IMO.
-
I liked it. I met some pretty cool people on there. While it wasn't the best, I will admit it was a pretty good in my opinion
-
2 RepliesIt was absolutely awful and a bastardization of the Halo title.
-
I thought everyone was crazy about Reach?
