hi im ethan, i started playing halo combat evolved along time ago and have bought every game between it and halo 4. i have loved every step of the way. heres my opinion on reaches online, when it came out i was expecting to get down to some seriouse stuff, sniping off in corners , flanking the team round the sides and squads of people going of in variouse vehicles to rain down death on the enemy. the reality. running around persone next to me explodes with confette along with the sound of children cheering, first persone to get a power weapon dominates, you see someone ( how every battle goes) shoot abit with your assault rifle run in, you both bash once, the next persone to bash wins. thats another thing, bashing, every new game they say, " you are a super soldier and will make you feel like one ". getting elbowed in the chest when you have thick metal armour with electric shields on, a couple of times kill you. i know its halo but come on i want to see you get your knife and plunge it under there armour. from what i have seen though of the halo 4 gameplay i love. they seem to have incorporated normal weapons alot more, less bashing and it seemed nobody just got a power weapon and destroyed everyone. this is turning more from a mess about for pansies into war game for men. last thing, i know this probably will not happen. but now the games getting more seriouse i dont really want to see any 3rd persone, it drags you away from the game back to reality, it should look how its supposed to look. first persone driving, turreting and assassinations. all of this will will make an amazing realistic hardcore wargame. thanx, ethan
A genetically enhanced super soldier with cybernetic impants smashes a 150 pound gun into your face from point blank with your shields down. You die.
Shields deflect HIGH VELOCITY objects, not fists.
First person driving? Go ride shotgun on the Maw.
Halo isn’t a realistic hardcore shooter. It is a sci-fi game with more epic than you can handle.
