Halo Reach is boring now. Anyone else think so?

Let me start by saying that I really enjoyed Halo Reach. I enjoyed the campaign and I really liked the improved forge. Its just that the multiplayer is extremely boring (imo) compared to Halo 3. The ranking system makes the multiplayer so monotonous and it lacks the competitive nature that Halo 3 had. For me, Halo 3's ranking system was extremely addictive. I always wanted to try to do my best and level up but in Reach its just grinding to get to your next level. It was really fun for me trying to get a 50 in Halo 3 even though I never got it (Used one account for the 3 years I played Halo 3). Some of you are going to tell me to play Arena if I want a number rank but thats mostly what I play and its not very fun. Theres no point in playing Arena when your rank gets reset every season. Well I'm done rambling. Just wondering if anyone else feels the same way.

  • Nope. Best multiplayer Halo, because it ticks off everyone who thought they were so wonderful before. Now it starts them off on the same footing as everyone else, and they just can't stand it. I love every minute of it.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CravenDescent Nope. Still playing nearly every day. Not boring to me yet. Frustrating sometimes, though...[/quote]x2 December will be a great month for Halo Reach... Season 4 Arena and MLG, will reduce the frustating moments...(aka "no AL") [Edited on 11.14.2010 9:34 PM PST]

HUGE disappointment. not that surprising either.. bungie catered this game specifically to the people below level 20 in halo 3, no wonder the 20+ people all think its horrible.[/quote] Not really.[/quote] Agreed. Reach is amazing and I for one actually enjoy the new ranking system. Sure I'm in the Warrant Officer road block but I'll keep playing and push through to make it higher. Also I'm a 34 in Halo 3. So suck it. [Edited on 11.14.2010 9:30 PM PST]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DillonShwing [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] A Legit Snipe It's not boring if you're good. It gets frustrating though[/quote] Being good has nothing to do with it being boring. The Ranking system is what makes Reach boring to me. [/quote] I disagree. I find it very boring because I find it so easy. It was the same story with MW2 and the reason I don't care to get Black Ops. Challenge is fun. Good, hard fought, balanced games are fun and I don't find that in Reach, except in Customs.

  • The dreadful BTB maps, having half of the team salyer maps made on Forge World, and the kinda boring ranking system is really taking a toll on my enjoyment of Reach. The only thing that brought me back was flying a Pelican. Also, a lot the useful forge tools and custom options being taken out makes custom games less enjoyable as well. I'm counting on the map pack to bring me back fully.

  • I honestly wish there was a way to have BOTH true skill and the current ranking system. I like that you can put work into your rank in reach but i also like doing my absolute best to rank up. I wish we could have both.

  • To me its more frustrating than boring because I'm always playing against people who camp,flank, or spam their ABs and make the game so very frustrating to play. At least in halo 2 and 3 I didn't have to worry about playing people like this.

  • It is getting boring to me. The credit system is a long process but i can put up with that. The arena thing i've never played and i dont care much for that part. The one thing that i really hate is that reach gameplay is just like halo 3's all over again. Overall appearence without going much into detail, everything just looks polished again. Hell i'd rather call this game an expansion of halo 3 just like ODST was the campaign expansion. It feels like its the exact same thing over and over again. Grab the dmr, shotgun, rocket, sword and camp lol. I really miss the SMG and duel wielding. As for a duel combo with the pistol, just forge the mm games where there will not be a map and load out option for the plasma pistol and magnum. I say include all other weapons into the MM experience, tone down the dmr use by removing a few of them from the maps to promote more diverse gameplay. I really miss the use of the AR, something that i can only get in a very lucky vote in team slayer and such......

  • Pretty much every single one of my friends got bored of reach after 3 weeks. It's way to repetitive.

  • I've gotten to the point where I can't play firefight and matchmaking for anything but challenges anymore. I can't deal with the douchenozzels. I just use forge now, though it's hardly rewarding with scarcely any downloaders and no friends to play with due to BO.

  • what i think would put another spark into reach would to be able to put a pelican in forge world and be able to spawn player into the back of it, i dont think its too far of a stretch, knowing i can fly one in campaign
