I think reach is a better overall game but most of the original maps aren't very good. Most of the good ones are remakes in forge. If Reach came out with better maps it would be great. However, I think that bungie was banking on the fact that the community would make kick ass maps, and we did
i know its not on this video but am i the only person who hates it when people do this. For example: Y0u fr1163n l0053r5 or y0u 5uck y0u fr1163n ub3r f4gg07
i like most of the maps in reach, except for countdown of course. i love boarwalk and spire. i agree that reach would seem odd on halo 3 maps but thats not a bad thing, reach is a different game with a different engine. not a totally different one but still different. it has to do with new weapons and armor abilities. and with big match types like invasion and zombies, i see why bungie took a different aprroch with the maps. just wish they didnt base them off campaign
i think the reason the maps r so big is because of the weapons, the dmr is a long range gun, not a short to mid range gun like the br was and that is possibly y they made the maps bigger
Ur so dam right game play seems so slow the community has made way better maps then the ones that came with the disc i enjoy playing a well balance map i believe all decent players will agree
I hope halo 4 is like halo 2 and 3. Reach was fun for awhile but I would rather play call of duty just because of the fast pace no scoping. However I think you agree with the videos I've watched you comment on
Hey Paul I dont wanna spam But I made a Playlist Called Road to Halo 4 I think You might like it. You should really watch it its me play halo 3 and halo reach on the Road to Halo 4 SO Far Am At epsiode 5 which am uploading now With commentary.SO MABY you can check me out and give me tips on my errors or mistakes thank-you P.S Type in "Road to Halo 4" your gonna find it Please answer
In the begining, reach was fine. I didn't hate it, nor did I even dislike it. It was different & I had felt the game lived up to what it was supposed to. 1 year and a half later, Reach is no longer my most beloved game and that is because of the zero bloom anniversary playlist. It"s not that I hate the playlist, I actually find it to be rather fun, but after playing that I found it is hard to go back to the original reach playlists. I still play the game, but it feels like it lost the halo feel.
reach might have gotten a lot of hate but it got this hate for doing what other games couldn't
it tried to change. Even if the changes were not totally loved, I have to give bungie HUGE props for trying. And besides nobody can say reach had no good aspects.
@CyborgSpartan i give them props for trying too. but i can easily say it had NO good aspects.forge is still useless and a total fisher price sorry excuse for a map editor. farcry2's system is the best. and it works on console.
the broken and underpowered weapons killed firefight for me.community hates the only decent maps.
the campaign and what bungie tried to push on the fans as cannon, is high treason as far as im concerned.and they should all be shot publicly with their family
I don't play enough to answer this, however, in response to your question of more Halo 3 gameplay... yes! Not to say that it should only be that. Btw, check out this channel: HermioneLive. I was talking with their main player for Halo 3/Reach (at least that's what I gathered) and they love playing Halo 3! Though, they don't find too many people to party with so maybe you two can work something out =D Make going back to Halo 3 an even better blast!
MLG pro??? HA HA HA HA HAHA AAAHHHH HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!
any way.
im ok with bigger maps. but i think their should be a even and HEALTHY number of maps large, medium, and small. 8 is a good number for each type. it keeps it from getting boring to fast.0 bloom is the best thing they could of done. how ever it doesn't seem to be on ALL weapons. the accuracy and damage for reach's weapons are FUBAR.a lot of stuff is wrong with reach from cannon story line to gameplay. its a failed game sorry.
@PaulB0991 oh and the grenades aren't mini nukes.. the halo reach beta and halo 1 grenades are mini nukes. which is good in my opinion.. its a fucking grenade... its not suppose to TICKLE you to death.. its suppose to violently explode! and the halo 3 grenades had perfect bounce mechanics to make up for the lack of power.
I'm a big halo reach fan just cant get enough of it man, its the only game i play apart from ssf4 and gow.halo 3 was a good game and i do like it and the same goes for halo reach.
i liked watching a pro rip up a game on a map and then playing h3 and playing that map and emulating the gameplay i saw because it had the same settings etc just different weapon spawns. reach is grey and no-one knows the maps, better maps off the bat with no bloom gameplay would have been incredible
One map i really like is Uncaged/The Cage. If you're playing a really organised team, once they get the high ground it turns into a nightmare. But... since i'm mostly in team slayer and i mostly vs 'inexperienced' players it's really random and fast-paced. i like it and it reminds me of the randomness of guardian, sorta.
Here is my problem with the halo community everyone complains about the maps (myself included) by no one uses forge to make anything better. And this forge world is supposed to be the best ever
I have a bigger problem with jetpacks. In maps like enclosed they just ruin everything. Letting people basically forego map navigation skills to kill people in a halo game is unforgivable
@PaulB0991 I also don't like the ranking system that Bungie put into Reach. I rather prefer a 1-50 skill system as Halo 3 had.
One gripe I had with this game is that grenades are "mini nukes". In Halo 3, it took two well-placed frag grenades and one plasma grenade to take down a person with full bar shield strength. In Reach, it only takes only one frag grenade to earn a kill.
Also, Armor Lock denies good players from earning their kills and Active Camo shouldn't be an armor ability anyway.
I just dont get it. To me Halo Reach and CEA are the 2 best halo games (multiplayer wise) but everyone hates reach. I truley love it and maybe its cause I started at Halo 3 and am not a super long time halo fan but ive played every halo game and i find reach the most entertaining. (besides Armor Lock)
@PaulB0991 I have to agree with what you mentioned. The maps in Reach are way too big and it seems to take forever to find anyone (especially on Boardwalk).
You mentioned in one of your previous videos about the fact that there is absolutely no skill base in Reach. Most players I get matched with in Team Slayer are mostly Recruits through Warrant Officer, and I'm a Noble! This is completely unfair for new players getting into the game.
I'd be more than happy with a clone of Halo 2 and im not the only one. No bloom and no sprint works great and is fast paced just like Halo 2, theres hope still...
Man, I can kind of see Countdown in this map, I only just realised it. Like the way it's set out (3 floors and lifts) but as you said, Countdown's much more enclosed and tight. Weird....
personally I don't think my biggest issue with reach was it's maps so much as the powerups. Those perks pissed me off, even if they weren't overpowered, I find that they always detract from the first person shooter feel. They're distracting and I prefer Halo 3. I'm not complaining about reach because I'm on the bandwagon, I genuinely enjoy H3 so much more. Not too fussed about the bloom in reach. Ah well, looking forward to the next one :P
Reachs maps dont suit its mechanics. Each halo game has its own iconic map, blood gulch, zanzibar? (didnt play H2), guardian, but what for reach? Swordbase? Countdown? No they are not up to the standards of bungie maps. I thought anniversary maps would almost reinvent Reach, but sadly they didnt. If there was one or two maps that were just fun to play, that created faced paced fights, that made the armor abilities shine, then reach would be a much better game.
I hate when people say "Reach is not a Halo game". Do people really want Halo 2/3 clones like they say? One of the reasons Halo became popular in the first place was because it was so unique but now other shooters have copied every aspect of Halo (re-gen health, 2 weapons only, etc.). If Halo is going to survive they are going to have to be innovative which is what Bungie did with Reach, it could have been more refined but if people want clones every sequel they should go play COD.
i dont want a Halo2/3 clone, i want a new halo game. if H:R was a clone of H3 people would complain about that and trust me fools would have left the game regardless. halo is a team based shooter among a sea of noob/one man army games. people want easy games not a challenge. the same goes with gears3, its a hard game to learn so ppl go to an easier game. halo and gears are the only mlg worthy games on console. i havnt heard reach being taken out but if it is mlg is dead to me.
@PaulB0991 every halo is different. halo1 is nothing like halo2. halo 3 added equipment and took away hitscan, resulting in slightly different shooting mechanics.
bungie's biggest mistake is bloom, it should have been 85% at launch. why complain about AAs when there are playlists without them and highly competitve ones like mlg on custom maps that are just as good as H2 and H3 maps.
i just dont get the hate for reach as a halo fan myself. was the game so bad people left for cod?.
@ArmorbyGod I dont want Halo 3.5 Im not trying to say that in this, the point Im trying to say is the maps people like so much in Halo 3 wouldent work in Reach due to the nature of the DMR, thats all I was saying, I wasnt saying that Reach was bad because it wasnt halo 3.
@PaulB0991 alright, i was reacting to the comments in general more than the vid itself. i just feel if 343 starts to copy&paste it wouldn't be halo tradition because no 2 halo games are alike despite what people say.
@ArmorbyGod thank you some one talk good on halo reach for one i played halo 1 ten year ago and i love ever halo made even there bad one like halo wars and halo 3 odst
@iLuckyDutch people complain about cod being a clone and not innovating why should halo be the same. these so called halo fans don't understand halo. halo 2 was a drastic change compared to halo 1. halo 3 added equipment to give halo an unpredictable dynamic. halo reach uses recharchable equipment/powerups. no 2 halos are identical, so halo 4 should be its own halo.
the problem with reach is the bloom system. 85% bloom is what it should have been. reach is still better than most games.
@ArmorbyGod first of all halo reach isn´t even close of how awesome was halo 3 (at least in those time around 2007). second REACH is a different story, it was about how the halo saga started. And just for fun 3rd both campaigns were awesome (and still awesome) specially halo 3.... the problem with H: Reach is the maps! (like he said)
@Damagedalmond the problem with reach is bloom. maps arent an issue if most of them are custom maps or remakes based on past map design. i like all halo games because all of them are different so my favorite may not be from yours.
I really don't understand what Bungie was thinking when they made Reach. Everything about it is just SLOW. Bloom (aside from the randomness), movement, slower shields, 5 shot precision rifle (yes technically br and dmr kill times are the same), and bigger maps. Everything is slower. Nobody wants that!
Now that Reach has been "fixed" a little bit (I'm looking at the new MLG settings) with no bloom, faster movement and higher jump, it's a bizarre imbalance of really fast and really slow gameplay
Amazing, what i always find good about your commentaries is you adress the issues unlike most commentators who just talk about how good their doing in a game or how to improve.
If they bring back the mechanics the weapons and the fun that halo 3 had and put it in halo 4 then and only then will they have a good game.
Also if the armor abilities in H4 then it is ruined, i personaly hate the bloom only because there is too much if they die the bloom down a bit and take things back to the way they used to be and keep it like that Halo will not die.
Reach is absolute shit, there's no other way to describe or comment on it. The DMR is horrible, the maps are horrible, the mechanics are horrible, the rank-system is horrible, the snipe is horrible, the rocket is horrible, the magnum is not as good as it should be etc. etc. It goes on and on. Let's just hope that 343 brings back the good things like the maps that Halo 2 and 3 had, the hitscan br, a melee system that works, the good mechanics where I can jump several feet in the air. etc. etc.
But missing: Make the vehicles act like in Halo 3, no bloom, NO AA's (also no sprint and evade), juggernaut gametype same as in Halo 3 and make multi team with 4 teams of 2 people.
@Wagnersuperior That isnt ideal at all, I am not hating on reach btw Im just saying that the maps in Halo 3 simply dont or wouldent work in Halo Reach even if they were better maps. Halo needs to stay as Halo but go forward aswell, how they do this is the hard part, Reach isnt the answer.
@PaulB0991 i agree with you here. progress in the longterm solution. Bungie took some risks with reach. some were sucessful like forge world and others were not.
@PaulB0991 you are right. Reach was a good game to me too, but yes it wasn't fully executed properlly. You are right about everything you said I'm just asking you will it be a good idea that Halo 4 will have all Halo 3 maps and Halo Reach Spartan armor costumization?
@Anarugameplays In all seriousness, I decided to upload this as I felt it was the best Map to try and get across what I was saying. The free Killing Spree at the start was a nice token XD
@PaulB0991 Ah it's cool. When I was a competitive player I was the support player, so my jobs always been to weaken as many as people as possible for the main slayers lol.
I like all Halo games, mostly Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Halo 3 was an awesome game, awesome with multiplayer maps. Halo Reach is awesome too at the engine and the ability that you can customize your spartan not only for the multiplayer but for the campaign as well. Only bad thing about Reach are the maps. I just wish that Halo 4 will have all Halo 3 maps but I also want to have Halo Reach Spartan armor customization. THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE! And Paul do you agree what I just said, you can reply.
@AltairLync Halo Reach for me is a good game that wasnt fully executed properlly, its feels like its been half done. As in it could have been this amazing last hurrah for the halo Multiplayer community in the end it fell short of my expectations fro ma Halo Game.
@Spartan1337DOSetimo5 That will be happening, will get back to the Walkthroughs soon :D Im going to be mixing it up very soon with some Halo and gears 3 for good measure.
@thedredmanable Not as yet, but I am hoping to very soon. Im waiting till I get new Internet (Will be getting very soon) before I start as the one I have got now would be like watching an old Charlie Chaplin Movie.
wow halo 3 has more players on the multiplayer than i had expected..
i really miss that, i hope they bring back the BR in halo 4, i miss running out of whatever weapon i had and falling back on my trusty BR... (that is if i'm not already using it :D)
@thedredmanable Theres around 2,000 people playing Social Slayer and still around 10,000 people playing it. If you think that Reach has around 55,000 - 60,000 on average at any given time then theres still in and around 70,000 people + playing Halo online, 343 just need to get the right balance of old and new and people will be back I am sure
ps did you hear the sundance interview you were referencing, talking bout halo on the table as to whether it'll make mlg?
I can't say I disagree with sundance with his opinions on reach. I hope halo keeps a place at mlg but unfortunately I see it fading away. I was wondering your opinions?
@BBKDRAGOON Yeah thats somewhat I was refencing too, I did two takes of this Comm, one refrencing his Interview and the other was this one. My personal take is this, if they drop it they drop it, its a big slap in the face to Bungie, to the Community and to everyone connected with Halo. This could be a great thing though as MLG without Halo for me is unthinkable, Halo 4 hopefully will hit the nail on the head if this happens, but it will be a big descsion if they do choose to drop it.
@PaulB0991 Thanks for the response :DI agree with everything you said,I would be shocked with no MLG Halo support. Although it seems like the community is fading a bit, I think the Youtube scene is finally starting up again. I'm seeing A LOT of other Halo commentators popping up :D Which is very exciting because Youtube I think will play a huge role in the potential revival of Halo with Halo 4. If we fans get Halo BIG time on youtube before halo 4, I think Halo could become a serious playa again
@BBKDRAGOON Halo is on its knees, it may fade out but it will never go away. Halo is what it is today through the Single Player first, thats what got us all hooked then Halo 2 gave us all the Mutiplayer, it will always be a big part of the Gaming community as far as the Story is still interesting IMO. The Mulitplayer is a different story all together, that is something that is going to take a lot of time to get right and get people playing like Halo2/3 days again.
MOAR HALO 3 this is amazing! Me and dinozords were just talking bout you yesterday man, you are truly a great halo commentator! Couldn't think of anyone better reppin the halo on respawn! Keep up the amazing vids bud
@BBKDRAGOON Thanks mate, we really need to play, I have finally started playing with more people from Youtube, Dinozords being one of them and its a load of fun actually having a team to play with, you need to jump in with us soon. Oh and btw you need to check out my good friend Anaru's Channel, he is playing with me in this Gameplay. His Channel is here, great Halo Commentator and an all round great person. His YT is Anarugameplays
@PaulB0991 That would be awesome! I almost jumped in yesterday when I saw you were on. I played a tiny bit with dinozords taking a break from this final paper haha, and I saw you on Reach and was so tempted to skip out on the paper writing :D But soon, I promise, once these exams finish next weekish I"ll be so excited. Time to play again :D
@BBKDRAGOON Yup his Gameplays are exceptionally high standard, really hope his channel gets more exposure as he deserves it for the time he puts into his Channel.

If there was one or two maps that were just fun to play, that created faced paced fights, that made the armor abilities shine, then reach would be a much better game.

I hate when people say "Reach is not a Halo game". Do people really want Halo 2/3 clones like they say? One of the reasons Halo became popular in the first place was because it was so unique but now other shooters have copied every aspect of Halo (re-gen health, 2 weapons only, etc.). If Halo is going to survive they are going to have to be innovative which is what Bungie did with Reach, it could have been more refined but if people want clones every sequel they should go play COD.

i dont want a Halo2/3 clone, i want a new halo game. if H:R was a clone of H3 people would complain about that and trust me fools would have left the game regardless. halo is a team based shooter among a sea of noob/one man army games. people want easy games not a challenge. the same goes with gears3, its a hard game to learn so ppl go to an easier game. halo and gears are the only mlg worthy games on console. i havnt heard reach being taken out but if it is mlg is dead to me.

@ArmorbyGod I dont want a Halo 2/3 clone but I dont want it that far of the spectrum that it alienates the community like reach did
PaulB0991 2 months ago 4
@PaulB0991 every halo is different. halo1 is nothing like halo2. halo 3 added equipment and took away hitscan, resulting in slightly different shooting mechanics.
bungie's biggest mistake is bloom, it should have been 85% at launch. why complain about AAs when there are playlists without them and highly competitve ones like mlg on custom maps that are just as good as H2 and H3 maps.
i just dont get the hate for reach as a halo fan myself. was the game so bad people left for cod?.
ArmorbyGod 2 months ago
@ArmorbyGod I dont want Halo 3.5 Im not trying to say that in this, the point Im trying to say is the maps people like so much in Halo 3 wouldent work in Reach due to the nature of the DMR, thats all I was saying, I wasnt saying that Reach was bad because it wasnt halo 3.
PaulB0991 2 months ago
@PaulB0991 alright, i was reacting to the comments in general more than the vid itself. i just feel if 343 starts to copy&paste it wouldn't be halo tradition because no 2 halo games are alike despite what people say.

@ArmorbyGod Exactly, they need to get the core back but need to make additions aswell.

@ArmorbyGod A halo 2/3 clone will be fine for me.
iLuckyDutch 2 months ago
@iLuckyDutch people complain about cod being a clone and not innovating why should halo be the same. these so called halo fans don't understand halo. halo 2 was a drastic change compared to halo 1. halo 3 added equipment to give halo an unpredictable dynamic. halo reach uses recharchable equipment/powerups. no 2 halos are identical, so halo 4 should be its own halo.
the problem with reach is the bloom system. 85% bloom is what it should have been. reach is still better than most games.
ArmorbyGod 2 months ago
@ArmorbyGod I think that's actually the reason why CoD is so succesfull, it never dies. Halo did die a bit by Reach
iLuckyDutch 2 months ago
@ArmorbyGod first of all halo reach isn´t even close of how awesome was halo 3 (at least in those time around 2007). second REACH is a different story, it was about how the halo saga started. And just for fun 3rd both campaigns were awesome (and still awesome) specially halo 3.... the problem with H: Reach is the maps! (like he said)
Damagedalmond 2 months ago
@Damagedalmond the problem with reach is bloom. maps arent an issue if most of them are custom maps or remakes based on past map design. i like all halo games because all of them are different so my favorite may not be from yours.
ArmorbyGod 2 months ago
I really don't understand what Bungie was thinking when they made Reach. Everything about it is just SLOW. Bloom (aside from the randomness), movement, slower shields, 5 shot precision rifle (yes technically br and dmr kill times are the same), and bigger maps. Everything is slower. Nobody wants that!
Now that Reach has been "fixed" a little bit (I'm looking at the new MLG settings) with no bloom, faster movement and higher jump, it's a bizarre imbalance of really fast and really slow gameplay

Amazing, what i always find good about your commentaries is you adress the issues unlike most commentators who just talk about how good their doing in a game or how to improve.
AnotherAddictedGamer 2 months ago
If they bring back the mechanics the weapons and the fun that halo 3 had and put it in halo 4 then and only then will they have a good game.
Also if the armor abilities in H4 then it is ruined, i personaly hate the bloom only because there is too much if they die the bloom down a bit and take things back to the way they used to be and keep it like that Halo will not die.
AnotherAddictedGamer 2 months ago
@AnotherAddictedGamer exactly there should only ONLY be armor abilities where you have to be a certain rank to use it, i think that would be great.

Reach is absolute shit, there's no other way to describe or comment on it. The DMR is horrible, the maps are horrible, the mechanics are horrible, the rank-system is horrible, the snipe is horrible, the rocket is horrible, the magnum is not as good as it should be etc. etc. It goes on and on. Let's just hope that 343 brings back the good things like the maps that Halo 2 and 3 had, the hitscan br, a melee system that works, the good mechanics where I can jump several feet in the air. etc. etc.

Jump Height back to Halo3
Hit Scan BR
Small Symetrical Maps
NO AA's (Sprint is a maybie and possibly evade)

Reach could have been a halo three clone with better graphics and people would have loved it , I believe. that isnt ideal but look at COD
Wagnersuperior 2 months ago 6
@Wagnersuperior That isnt ideal at all, I am not hating on reach btw Im just saying that the maps in Halo 3 simply dont or wouldent work in Halo Reach even if they were better maps. Halo needs to stay as Halo but go forward aswell, how they do this is the hard part, Reach isnt the answer.
PaulB0991 2 months ago
@PaulB0991 i agree with you here. progress in the longterm solution. Bungie took some risks with reach. some were sucessful like forge world and others were not.
Wagnersuperior 2 months ago
CQC style maps in Reach? Only if they were AR/Magnum starts, and instead of DMRs there were Needle Rifles.
The DMR, as it stands, is extremely clunky and unreliable at close ranges. And if maps like Guardian did ship with Reach... Eugh...

@PaulB0991 you are right. Reach was a good game to me too, but yes it wasn't fully executed properlly. You are right about everything you said I'm just asking you will it be a good idea that Halo 4 will have all Halo 3 maps and Halo Reach Spartan armor costumization?

I like all Halo games, mostly Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Halo 3 was an awesome game, awesome with multiplayer maps. Halo Reach is awesome too at the engine and the ability that you can customize your spartan not only for the multiplayer but for the campaign as well. Only bad thing about Reach are the maps. I just wish that Halo 4 will have all Halo 3 maps but I also want to have Halo Reach Spartan armor customization. THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE! And Paul do you agree what I just said, you can reply.

@AltairLync Halo Reach for me is a good game that wasnt fully executed properlly, its feels like its been half done. As in it could have been this amazing last hurrah for the halo Multiplayer community in the end it fell short of my expectations fro ma Halo Game.

@thedredmanable Theres around 2,000 people playing Social Slayer and still around 10,000 people playing it.

ps did you hear the sundance interview you were referencing, talking bout halo on the table as to whether it'll make mlg?
I can't say I disagree with sundance with his opinions on reach. I hope halo keeps a place at mlg but unfortunately I see it fading away. I was wondering your opinions?
BBKDRAGOON 2 months ago
@BBKDRAGOON Yeah thats somewhat I was refencing too, I did two takes of this Comm, one refrencing his Interview and the other was this one. My personal take is this, if they drop it they drop it, its a big slap in the face to Bungie, to the Community and to everyone connected with Halo. This could be a great thing though as MLG without Halo for me is unthinkable, Halo 4 hopefully will hit the nail on the head if this happens, but it will be a big descsion if they do choose to drop it.
PaulB0991 2 months ago
@PaulB0991 Thanks for the response :DI agree with everything you said,I would be shocked with no MLG Halo support. Although it seems like the community is fading a bit, I think the Youtube scene is finally starting up again. I'm seeing A LOT of other Halo commentators popping up :D Which is very exciting because Youtube I think will play a huge role in the potential revival of Halo with Halo 4. If we fans get Halo BIG time on youtube before halo 4, I think Halo could become a serious playa again
BBKDRAGOON 2 months ago
@BBKDRAGOON Halo is on its knees, it may fade out but it will never go away. Halo is what it is today through the Single Player first, thats what got us all hooked then Halo 2 gave us all the Mutiplayer, it will always be a big part of the Gaming community as far as the Story is still interesting IMO. The Mulitplayer is a different story all together, that is something that is going to take a lot of time to get right and get people playing like Halo2/3 days again.
