Yeah, I hadn't played Halo in longer (I played Modern Warfare 2, bad idea). I used to have a group of friends that I rolled with and we dominated on Team Objective and stuff, but I don't talk to them anymore.

And I think grinding Firefight all day for that weekly challenge kinda throws off my multiplayer game, lol

Or play Gruntpocalypse on Score Attack. It's just you, and a million Grunts. You can rack up headshots, and there's no douchebags on your team to kill you or steal your kills.

I just picked up this game (and a 360 for that matter) today. Looking for people to play with.

My first console fps since Goldeneye -- it's a lot to get used to right now. I've been doing well in the matchmaking but I'm guessing I'm playing in the equivilant of bronze/silver league. :p

Man, my aim is streaky mid-game. I'll sometimes start off hot, then go ice cold, or vice versa. I went on a couple 7+ kill streaks, and after I died, I couldn't get more than one kill in a row. It's so frustrating, because I know I used to be better than that.

That's what battling in the open like that is good for, though. It helps a lot with keeping control of your fingers.


We should play on "The Cube" then tonight.


A top 250 H2 player got me on that (his highest was top 250 in MLG FFA, so I think it's fair to say he's top 250). I wish I could find more players like him that are willing to help scrubs like myself out at getting better. You really can't get better if you aren't playing good competition all the time.
know Reach maps at ALL yet (as is likely shown by me not knowing if there are rocks on Cube).


I could help you out. I was an MLG pro at Halo 3 before I quit so I'm decent at Reach. Add me: J3TTY and just say team liquid or something.

Does anyone else feel that Reach's DMR is more random than the BR/pistol in previous halos? I know the bloom increases the skill gap and all but, even when I shoot slowly it don't seem to kill like it should.


Not at all. Last night I had the gun timed perfectly. I was regularly five shotting people. BR was occasionally random because one or two of the bullets from the burst would miss.

What I do not like about the DMR is that I haven't figured out how to fire cross-map successfully yet.


Well, I'm mainly talking about close-mid range battles. If I slow down, I seem to lose to people that just spam the shots. The BR spread was only a problem long range, imo.
It's not who you play, it's how you play.

Yesterday I was playing BTB with two friends. The three of us got into one of the Falcons on Spire, and our self-entitled brat of a teammate melee'd our Falcon a few times and got it so that it was smoking, just because he couldn't get in it. So we died pretty quickly and when I respawned I shot him a couple times with the DMR, and so he killed me with rockets and I booted his five-year-old ass. So his teammate betrayed me FIVE times, and I never got the option to boot him. lolwut?

Isn't this being fixed in the patch coming out later this month? Coulda sworn that was in a recent Bungie weekly update, but I'm too lazy to check right now.

Yeah, I think they said they were going to go to the Halo 3 system of three betrayals, and you're out.

I like the zero tolerance thing though. Even if you do get booted occasionally for accidental betrayals, it's nice to not have to deal with someone's BS if they're purposely killing you.

Is Halo Reach worth getting if I didn't like any of the other Halo 2 or Halo 3? I mean I liked the stories in all of them, but I wasn't into Halo 2 or Halo 3's multiplayer and I know the OP said that this brought back Halo 1, but it seems a lot more complicated than Halo 1 and I'm not sure I'll like it, can someone honestly tell me that I'll like it and it's worth buying? Or should I just rent it for myself and find out?

Just rent it. I'd have a hard time giving you an unbiased opinion.

It's certainly different, and slightly more complicated given the armor abilities. Still, it's DMR+X like it was pistol+X before. The concepts are still all the same, the way you play the game is the same. It's absolutely better than Halo 3, imo. I loved Halo 2 MP, but that's probably somewhat due to it being the only decent console option at the time. I think I probably look at it with pretty rosy nostalgia glasses on.

I'm a person that HATES spending money, especially on games, and more so on things that are not worth my money. While I didn't spend a dime of new money on it, I was absolutely ready to after playing it for a couple of hours at a friend's house. I think that, if you liked Halo: CE, this one is worth the money. So far, I think it's the best one since then, and I loved Halo 2.

The skill curve is definitely greater than it was in Halo 3 or even 2, because of the DMR shot timing (I think so, anyway). The maps are poor right now, but that'll get better as Bungie starts to incorporate community forge maps (like Damnation and Prisoner) into MP (which, btw, totally brings back CE feelings... Damnation is an almost perfect remake, there may be a few tricks that you can't do anymore that I was never aware of in the first place).

The best bet is still to rent it first, if you can get it somewhere for less than Blockbuster charges (~$10 per rental), and play for a few hours to make sure for yourself. But I was not going to buy the game at all, this thread and my friends talking about it piqued my interest... then I played it for myself, and it's a really good game. Campaign is solid so far as well.
I'm never gonna know you now \ But I'm gonna love you anyhow.

Yeah, I'm glad for the DMR now. I like that you have to actually time your shots and aim.
