Halo Reach

[Charlie]

I'm the same and struggle to score games a 1 or a 2. And even a 3 and a 4 if I'm honest. Even when I personally hate a game I can usually see aspects to it which are positive or which others might enjoy.

As for Yaris, that was a terrible game and I'm ashamed to admit I wasted several hours squeezing 165 Gamerscore out of it.

I think it goes more 10, 9, 8, 7...END.

Giving it a 1 is deffinitley ridiculous.

Its clearly a quality game thats well made, it has lots of value for money and stands with the best games in the genre both in single and multiplayer

To hate it you would have to hate first person shooters, and if you just hated first person shooters then whatever score you gave the game is pointless anyway.

I'm really really enjoying this. Played multiplayer for 6 hours last night and was loving it, I could see certain cheesy tactics appearing on certain maps in certain variants but there is so much variation between games that it's not too bad.

Firefight is even crazier than it was in ODST, the stronger more agile Spartans and the less predictable spawning and enemy hordes makes for some Funny moments. The enemies seem a little brighter too, Halo 3 on legendary was fairly easy to take down a brute as they didn't move out of the way of stickies, but the Elites roll all over

I've not played much of Campaign, but so far the story has been pretty uninvolving. I assume a little more happens after the first couple of levels.

The elites on heroic are bullet (and rocket) sponge bastards and even the grunts seem to be of slight concern

[Jebus]

It's games like this that make me wish I could play til the early hours of the morning still.

That's really the highest reccomendation I can give it.

Yep, lol

I've finished Legendary solo. Spent eight hours earlier finishing the remaining three levels. I'm shocked, thrilled, and angry. I also never want to do anything like that again.

I guess it's prove that even the worst Halo players (myself, of course) can tackle a challenge such as this, with perseverance and swearing.

anyone else experienced heavy AI drop-outs with Elites? i've seen them multiple times already trying to run through walls or standing still after taking sniper fire - and i am not even halfway through the campaign.

oh, and is there any armor upgrade that does actually upgrade your armor or is it all just cosmetic?

Yes i have numerous times, happens with brutes as well.

i read the max ammo capacity for the assault rifle is 600 rounds. so why is it i can only take up to 288 rounds most of the time?

The only time I saw 600 rounds of ammo in the AR was when it was the weapon I started a mission with, as opposed to picking one up and finding ammo.

[rmoxon]

Maybe its a balancing issue?

It would be a lot easier if the AR had 600 bullets all the time, ptobabaly too easy.

Thats what i thought it was too. But i never used the AR, its more of peashooter in Reach and possibly the worst weapon in the game.

[EvilBoris]

on certain levels it starts with 600

I've found the AR to be pretty good in reach, it's a much more accurate initial burst with a longer ranged compared to the spray in Halo 3.

Couldn't agree more, waste of space holding it. I always swapped it at the first opportunity. Grenade launcher is a bit ****e too!

DMR is best, magnum is really handy too. Also like the needler rifle.
