Me and my older brother were just talking about the old halo reach days, after which I went on an old halo reach hype train set of videos like the game trailers n stuff. I'm feeling a fuckton of nostalgia right now and I'm just wondering if there are any other halo reach fans out there?

Kill yourself you Halo Reach loving bitch.
>>
>>378382650
Yeah, I think it was one of the best halo games. My brother and I played all of them to death, and spend a ton of time on Reach playing online.
If M$ had any sense, they'd release a pack with ODST and Reach for Windows.

The bait is strong in this thread. Better leave it for the slightly older kids that started with 3 to get angry about.

Halo died are 3, it was the last straw. ODST had a good idea behind it but it wasn't enough in execution. Reach was the beginning of the transition to shit, the old spark was pretty much gone. Then 343i happened.

3 wasn't very good, but it still felt, in parts, like Halo. It was a nice ending and it's the best we could have hoped for. Also, brought back the Assault Rifle, hated losing it.

As a Halo 3 babby going into it I was slightly disappointed but I still enjoyed it and played a lot

>best armor customization
>assassinations
>pretty good forge
multiplayer was hit or miss, some maps were pretty shit

Didn't like the campaign, the characters felt very hollow until their death scenes. Death scenes were fantastic though, except Kat. Carter had the best death.

We had custom games a lot with /v/ in like 2010-11, I wonder if any of you people still go here.

it was called MicroSoft Best Friends, I miss those times

>gameplay is fucking dogshit yet again pandering to the CoD audience. Armor Abilities were game breaking ruining any sort of pace.

I like the game but it fails completely as a Halo title.
>>
>>378382650
Reach had my favorite campaign of all the games. I kinda liked the fact that you knew how it was all going to end, but you still had to try. Sort of a constant desperate struggle that you knew was doomed to failure all along.

>>378382650
Reach is still my favorite Halo game. The Forge mode alone would have made the 60 dollar price tag worth it if I'd known ahead of time just how much fun I'd get out of custom games with friends. It was amazing to get out of school, rush home and hop online with no less than 5 or 6 people on any given day and just play for hours. Invasion, customs, action sack and rumble pit, doubles with my brother or another friend when it was a slow day, it was all great.

I thought it was great how brave they were to even make ODST. So many people were just expecting another Halo game and came away disappointed. I thought it was fresh. I'd love to see them try something new like that again. Maybe with Halo wars doing okay they'll try to branch out again.

Reach was my shit. I played a bit of 2 and 3 online, but Reach was the first one I really got a hold of. It was slow, but every move was deliberate. I especially liked how they kept making new maps and also added great Forge maps to the official rotation. My only real issue was those few maps where camping was a big thing, like Sword Base.

Except Halo wasn't always this pure dark CoD pandering bullshit. Sure the Flood were dark but that was always 2 to 3 missions out of 10-15. Now you have this shitty grimdark "everythings hopeless" shit shoved in your face. There's no Johnson, hardly any funny marines or grunts and you have this shit brown/grey filter on every fucking object.

>Not to mention the entire backstory to Spartans and other UAC shit being dark as hell.
This shit was never shoved in your face however. If you wanted to find out about something that wasn't purely "aliens" you would read the books or terminals. If I wanted to play another war drama game I would play BF, CoD, or GoW. Halo should have never been taken this purely serious. Gone was the unique colorful artstyle that the previous games had, gone was epic soundtrack ranging from full blown orchestras seen in the main themes to nice calming soundtracks like A Walk in the Woods. I'm not even saying Reach is a bad game it's great, I just can't say it's a good Halo game

Its between 2 and 1. I like Halo 2's better because it perfectly expanded the lore and added a fucking great character. And the more political nature was pretty good.

The entirety of the Halo 2 campaign felt rushed (which it was). The original 9 missions got cut down to 7 and had to be split in two to make the game appear to be long. Chief was promoted in Arby'd missions Arbiter/Oracle and Sacred Icon/Quarantine Zone thus false advertising Halo 2 just to keep a fucking secret. When it launch the whole playing as an alien thing didn't go down well with the fanbase because no one wanted to play a fucking alien to begin with, half of the levels were shit, along with a rushed ending and unfinished enemies. The only thing good to come from Halo 2 was the mp, you want lore, go read the books.

If Halo Reach was an 8th grader in 2010, he'd almost be done with his Bachelor's by now

Didn't notice this post. Not at all. Campaign was much better than 2's. CE is a bit more arguable as I fucking loved the huge levels. Even if CE is my favorite 3 still had the most consistently great campaign. Not a single level felt bad (even cortana) as the level design and weapon variety were so great. Game also went back to CE's amazing artstyle which 2 forgot for a more generic earth setting. Also you can't say that it was only because of the community as it was completely due to Bungies additions of Theatre, Forge, and custom game freedom that the community was able to feel so great. Maps are some of the best, due to not being taxed by absurd weapon balance like 2 and CE's one weapon to rule them all mentality (BR and Magnum). Soundtrack was easily the best out of the 3. I honestly don't get the hate for 3. It's such obvious contrarianism only seen on this shit board.

Agreed

>couldn't even reach Halo 3 numbers in sales
Only because Halo 3 was sold along with X360 and people got it with the console. By the time Reach was released, everyone already owned an Xbox.
Either way - it's the second best selling Halo, it even beat H2.

I'm mainly talking about the story its self
>Game also went back to CE's amazing artstyle
Its not remotely the same except sorta more colorful
>Bungies additions of Theatre, Forge, and custom game freedom that the community was able to feel so great
But Reach,4, and 5 have all had the same thing and yet only Halo 3 really took off.

Nope, Halo 3 sold that well because it was actually good.

>By the time Reach was released, everyone already owned an Xbox.

I think Halo 4 beat Reach in sales.

Say what you want about 2 but it had the best ambience out of all the titles.
>>
>>378391568
Story doesn't decide if the campaign is good, gameplay does and Halo 3's campaign gameplay shits on Halo 2's. For the most part Halo 2 didn't even feel like a Chief game (like Halo 5) so that right there made me take off major points on the game's campaign.
>>
>>378390629
>The entirety of the Halo 2 campaign felt rushed (which it was)
How? The ending was infamously rushed sure, as was some things with Arbiter and the Brute. But other than that...
>The original 9 missions got cut down to 7 and had to be split in two to make the game appear to be long
Still the longest campaign IIRC
>false advertising
Technically, but it was for a good reason. I wish shit like that was pulled today
>When it launch the whole playing as an alien thing didn't go down well with the fanbase because no one wanted to play a fucking alien to begin with
I will never get this. Arbiter is a great character with different stats. His only flaws are he has the weakest level designs. Sounds like people just didn't change despite being pretty good change
>>
>>378391728
>I think Halo 4 beat Reach in sales.
That would imply 4 is the best selling, anon.

Yes 3 and CE have very similar artstyles. 2 went for a very standard urban military look due to half the campaign taking place in cities. It's literally stated by Halo's artist Marcus Lehto
that they went for a different look and that for 3 they wanted to return to CE's.

>But Reach,4, and 5 have all had the same thing and yet only Halo 3 really took off.

3 didn't suffer from shitty gameplay changes that were completely out of place. Reach/4/5 all had complete dogshit maps with Reach having the vast majority taken straight from the campaign with no MP balance in mind and no changes. Reach was just an inferior game in every way to 3. And 4 or 5 were just inferior to Reach.
>>
Fuuuuck I remember halo 1 and 2 so vividly. The original Xbox had such a cool theme to a 9 year old. Found halo 1 on the exhibition game demos disk that came with the console. We were so shit that we played that one level for a while and still didn't even figure out where to go.

When halo 2 came out I was so hype that my parents preordered me a copy. All day at school me and my bros were itching to get home and FUCKING DUAL WIELD. AND SWORDS NIGGA. We knew before we even played how lit that shit was gonna turn out to be. Mums even took us to get chicken nuggers on the way home.

Damn it was great growing up white

How is Halo 4 the best selling when Halo 3 is the only Halo game that sits at 12 million old?
>>378392035
>How? The ending was infamously rushed sure, as was some things with Arbiter and the Brute. But other than that...
It was rushed

>Still the longest campaign IIRC
No it wasn't

>Technically, but it was for a good reason. I wish shit like that was pulled today
Good reason my ass, was 343 lying about Halo 5 since 2013 a good reason? Kill yourself.

>I will never get this. Arbiter is a great character with different stats. His only flaws are he has the weakest level designs. Sounds like people just didn't change despite being pretty good change
Look if they wanted to make a story about some no named alien at the time, then they should have just made a spin off, series was big enough anyway. Chief is Halo and many fans see that, you need to get over the fact that you sit in the minority on this.

>Tip of the Spear starts
>Oh boy oh shit this is going to be the coolest vehicle level ever

And this just kept happening throughout the campaign. It's like the game keeps telling you awesome shit is happening, but won't actually let you see it.
>tease Scarab fights the whole game
>drop two on the player in the last level and tell them TO FUCKING IGNORE THEM
No, fuck you. Reach's campaign was shit.
>>
>>378392481
The opposite happened, Bungie designed the maps and threw them in the campaign. At least hate on the game for correct reasons, dumbass.
>>
>>378392354
Taken from the campaign, taken from the mp he's not really lying m8.
>>
>>378392354
It literally isn't a lie. Every single non forge created map (which were also shit) with the exception of power plant was taken straight from the campaign. MP suffered tremendously from this as it was both more of the same and balance wasn't taken into account.

Other way around. They made multiplayer maps and then put them in the campaign.
>>
>>378392554
This
>>
>>378392626
I'll never understand why the first thought process was "hey they took the multiplayer map and put it in campaign" instead of the pants on head retarded logic of "lol they just ripped sections of the campaign and called it a day". Like, Bungie isn't that dumb.

You mean Powerhouse? Because it shows up in campaign as well.

Don't know how they fucked up the balance so much than. I'd attribute it to shitty out of place armor abilites. It's also pure fucking laziness.

Almost like its a different situation entirely

I wasn't about him, he was supporting character
>then they should have just made a spin off
Why, he was integral to the story they wanted to tell
>Chief is Halo and many fans see that
That doesn't mean he has to be the only character. Halo 2 worked because it was evenly split. Halo 5 didn't because Locke was a shit character and was 70% of the game
>minority on this.
4chan is not the majority. Arbiter is very obviously a popular character

If they had made it like they were going to in the trailers, ODST would have been a masterpiece.

Halo 5s forge has all of this and more, and its incredibly active. H5 forge is the best its ever been by a fucking country mile
>>
>>378392640
From what I remember it outsold Reach and Microsoft were happy with it sells compared to Reach.

>>378392697
Does it really matter? Reach's maps were shit anyway.

Does H5 Forge have custom Games? Thought it was only Forge

Halo 1 is the longest campaign in the series.

>Almost like its a different situation entirely
Not really, they both lied and they both got backlash for it for all the right reasons.

>I wasn't about him, he was supporting character
He literally hijacks the story and ends the game.

>Why, he was integral to the story they wanted to tell
Then they shouldn't have kept him a secret.

>That doesn't mean he has to be the only character
That exactly what it means.
>Halo 2 worked because it was evenly split
But it didn't
>Halo 5 didn't because Locke was a shit character and was 70% of the game
No one wanted to play Locke to begin with, Halo 5 got backlash at E3 2015 because no one gave a shit about Locke and his team. They were wondering where Chief and Blue Team was.
>>
>>378393561
Yes it has full use of custom games and forge, it even has server browser. No idea how active it is though.
>>
>>378393898
Sounds like you have just a complete hate-boner of everything different.

>>378394156
No I have a hate boner for bad change.

Nice comeback bud.

>>378394297
Your entire argument is that he isn't chief. You don't have to like him, but just because you don't like it means its bad
>>
>>378392171
2's art style aged like shit and sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the other games. Maybe it's because I didn't grow up with H2, and skipped right from 1 to 3.
>>
>>378394510
When I have to deal with bad level design that drags on, what do you expect?

I agree. It's due to 2 going for a more typical realistic military art style. Much different from CE and 3 going for a unique blend of colors, vegetation, skyboxes, and alien structures.

I liked Halo Reach alot.

It's a little early for nostalgia for the game but it does take me back to college mentally whenever I play it. Same with Black Ops 1.
