Halo: Reach October Playlist Update
Reach Xbox LIVE playlists have been updated!

I don't care what people say, replacing the tanks with wraiths sucks. Part of the appeal of Blood Gulch was the challenge of going up against an enemy tank and the satisfaction of finally killing it or stealing it and using it against the enemy. Now we get -blam!- wraiths that are more useless than a mongoose.
-
Fountain of mongooses eh? Anyway, good to hear that the first update has been released.
-
I was hoping to hear something about the AA/power weapon host migration problem. In Arena currently if one team fights hard for the power weapons and sets up, it was common for one of the opposing team to quit, triggering game restarts/host migration. When the game comes back all power weapons have respawned (nullifying your earlier push) and your armor ability would be defaulted to sprint until respawn, sometimes there would be no AA but instead a hologram looking "sprint" icon attached to everyones back until a death/respawn.
-
The only thing I am not happy with is the fact there is still no Snipers playlist. Still, can't have everything in life.
-
lol, good to see I wasn't the only one.
-
Why would you take off Slayer Pro? Like you guys really just took off the only competitive mode in the game. Now all I can play is against rookies with jetpacks thinking they're cool. Bungie always ends up messing up a good game by adding stupid stuff like that. Especially with the overpowered grenades that everyone spams? Like cmon Bungie.. You can do a lot better. Put back Slayer Pro, so the "GOOD" players can destroy rookies that can't do anything without their little jetpacks.
-
im a very competative player and i do not like slayer pro being taken out of dubs and team slayer at all. I think bungie should put an MLG team slayer and a MLG doubles playlist because the jetpacks and invis are all just noobie things which just made this game worse. Bungie please put slayer pro back in or make MLG playlist. Also, why was swat put in before MLG. MLG is 10 times more popular.Please put a Snipers playlist also. I dont know what bungie is thinking but they need to be thinking more on the competitive side of reach not the noobie one. P.S. Sorry for any misspells.
-
Thank you.
-
agreed. they just removed the most decent gametype and without any explanation. i hope there will be some sort of mlg playlist in the works.
-
Today's update was all the "simple" stuff. Look for the level cap to be raised later in the month when the second half of the update comes online.
-
Good news. Would have been Great news had the infection playlist update got pushed through. Having everyone and their mom always choose it for Rumble pit made me want to quit playing Reach. It may be fun to some people, but after 5 games in a row, I just wanted to snap my game disc in half. Would have been more enjoyable than game after game of boring a55 infection.
-
I'm stoked about infection getting its own playlist. Awesome update.
-
Still motion tracker on Arena? Take that thing off, configure to "motion tracker: allies only". This way Camo is not overpower and we can play a decent competitive environment.

This needs to either be fixed if it was supposed to be there or brought back if removed on purpose. Really... why remove something that important? [/quote] That feature never worked in Halo 3 (and there wasn't an easy solution to fix it ) so they removed the menu option in Reach.[/quote] Have you even USED the H3 Forge?? Of course that feature worked! When enabled, the Party Leader was the only person who was allow to go into Monitor Mode while the guests stayed as regular players. Really how could you NOT notice that? The feature needs to come back ASAP.[/quote] The problem was that it only disabled the D pad button for switching. There's a pause menu button for switching too. But I Dont see why they can't remove both of those options when the party is leader only

you spelt "should" [in the fourth paragraph that you started with "lastly"] (you put shoudl) wrong, I dont want to be a downer but it got my attention. [Edited on 10.05.2010 12:25 PM PDT]

Yea infection playlist now i don't have to go through all those rounds of playing inferior gametypes to get to my zombie killing fiesta.
-
Love the changes :) I'm really glad swat gets it's own playlist, and I can't wait to see infection get its own.
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Hylebos So... about that Fountain of Mongeese...[/quote] I second that... But he asked, not me :)
-
Awesome guys. Thanks Bungie!
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AngryBeavis There is still a problem on Rumble Pit where the "Safe Havens" infection gametype on Zealot allows people to exit to the space area above and stay out of reach of the zombies completely thereby nullifying the point of "Safe Havens." The outerspace area becomes a huge headshot friendly Save Haven. Can we fix that?[/quote] Arena Zealot has a soft kill zone in space so it's fixed lol

Glad Slayer pro is gone, It was really boring idc if some of you think it's uncool because Arena is supposed to be "Pro" and competitive but i disagree since the arena was made for everyone not just pros... In Invasion: I would like to see capture points labeled A and B And not just with a little dot. It's annoying when you are trying to cooperate. Also everything from this guys post needs to be ad heard to... Posted by: An18poundpickle Alright, they may have added some new things, but what they took away is more important. 1. No Alpha Zombie. 2. No option to change active camo to halo 3 settings. 3. No option to make next zombie random, leader, or chump. 4. No VIP. 5. No instakill. 6. No option to pick percentage of zombies to start a round. 7. You need to give people 25% damage to splatter, so almost all vehicle games (Ice Cream Man, monster trucks...) need honour rules. 8. Infection with 1-life doesn't work. When the zombie dies the game doesn't end. 9. You can't set the points for objective game types. You cannot make a neutral territories map so that when you capture them all you win. The scoring is like king of the hill for each one. 10. No way of setting the game to Elites/Spartans only, like in matchmaking. 11. A lack of a zero second respawn. 12. They made classes for elites and Spartans in infection, shouldn't it be for zombies and humans? 13. Removal of a 1-10 scoring system. (Now its 1/2/5/10) Was it really that hard to add in a few more numbers? 14. Over shields are hardly noticeable. 15. Free-For-All style chat is terrible. You can't even plot without the zombie hearing, and vice versa. I have no idea why they would take these settings away, especially since they are supposed to improve on their last game settings. With these gone, many of the most popular custom games go with it. I thought infection would be bigger and better than ever. Guess it's the opposite. As more things missing are found, I will update the list. Thanks to Bdnndb for finding a lot more. I can't make any of my favorite classic games anymore D: But overall, You're doing good Bungie. Keep up on the updates [Edited on 10.05.2010 12:06 PM PDT]

Many of us were expecting it to be lifted today. agreed I was waiting for the level cap to be lifted. No reason to play till it is.
