Why do you think Halo Reach was better than Halo 3?

The only thing good about reach was the player customization, forge and the matchmaking was decent, Halo 3 is far better.Imo. if you do think reach is better, why?

    The atmosphere, visuals, and gunplay all felt better in that game. Not to mention the level of customization compared to any other Halo. I also enjoyed the Armor Abilities, as they added another layer of strategy to the game.

  • Just about everything was better IMO. I especially liked the customization aspect and the story was very good.

    In terms of gameplay, default Reach isn't all that much better than 3, which is my least liked game of the original trilogy. Reticle bloom was too inconsistent and not punishing enough for what it was intended to do. Armor abilities, especially armor lock and jetpack, broke the game and map flow. Though weapon balance was pretty good, not as good as CE or 5, but better than 2 or 3; loved the Pro Pipe and Focus Rifle. The TU fixed a lot of what was broken with Reach. Bloom was lessened and a bit more consistent (which incidentally made the Needle Rifle perfectly accurate and precise), and armor lock was rebalanced so that it wasn't the end-all, be-all. Just too bad it wasn't implemented across the board; 343i really dropped the ball by segregating Vanilla and TU Reach. TU Reach is enjoyable and better than Halo 3 in my opinion.

  • Halo Reach was the true downfall of the franchise

      They're both awesome Halo: Reach Forge, armor, multiplayer Halo 3 Campaign (best campaign comparing to all the other halos) I played more Reach than 3 so I can't say a lot but my short mp experience it's enough to say that reach has a better pvp, I guess it makes sense when the successor it's better right? At least in some things?

    • H3 feels the slowest. Just too slow. Reach for sure!

        It wasn't. Multiplayer was way more unbalanced. The campaign was different, it wasn't the basic action story that Halo 1-3 are but I still liked 3 more. Reach was only really good for local play and Firefight.

        • I don't. Reach is the worst Halo game (or at least joint worst with H4), IMO.

        • Played since CE, can't really decide if reach is better than any other but I liked the wider range of characters that they used some were better than others for sure.

        • The only ones that tend to vote reach that I've seen is usually because that's when they first started halo

            • I mean have you listen to Reach menu music? Sounds more gritty then 3.

            • I don't. They were both good but I didn't like the art style and story for Reach.

            • The music suited the atmosphere of Reach a little better than 3's did for itself, in my opinion.

              I liked the weapons more, and they actually made vehicles ungodly. You could take down a Banshee or Ghost with a DMR. In Halo 3 the Banshee was OP. And as annoying as they were to get used to, I liked having the abilities. The story in Reach was lacking though. I think Halo 3 is a better game overall.

            • Best custom games and forge. I also like the chill casualness of the game.

            • I don't while enjoyable Reach to me was just a decent side story outside of the main games but it isn't better then any of the main titles. Have always found it funny how so many praise Reach especially its MP and yet hate Halo4. Halo4 campaign wise was a very decent game and MP wise 343 merely built upon what they believed fans wanted seeing as they loved the COD version of Halo's MP (Reach) so much. It was originally Bungie the Bastardised the MP with Reach crossing over into CODS territory and yet Halo4 is the game that gets all the hate. I guess ppl are funny like that.....
