Grab Your Friends.. Or Lose.

Just want to share my experience so far. My initial impressions were very positive (and still are). I played with a full team yesterday and had a blast. We also did very well, and I point this out only to say this. Today I decided to play solo, and lost 6 in a row regardless of my performance. I didn’t quite realize how much emphasis this game has on teamwork.

Kill times are short, movement across the map is very fast with sprint/dashing/climbing, and the two maps presented are focused on controlling key points/power weapons (like halo!)

I don’t say any of this as a negative, but for those of you not quite enjoying this game yet, get a few people together, communicate, and I can guarantee you’ll appreciate the experience much more, whether winning or losing.

Edit: “like halo” was only in reference to controlling key points/power weapons, lol.

Halo always was a team-based game during 4x4 matches

the communication during the game is really important so yea, with friends u will have more chances to win

I dropped like 100 points from last time… mostly due to bad team mates… I am better than my rank shows.

I seem to do pretty well without any friends playing with me.

Yea for sure, one of the aspects of halo I appreciate the most, but in Halo 2, and even Halo 3, one great player can dominate a team. That’s definitely not the case here; at least not as easily.

this is true and it kinds bites since i have no friends who play halo anymore…

Reach was the last game you could str8 up carry a team

no that would be halo 4 after the patches.

Same, really sucks. They’re all off on CoD and Assassin’s Creed now… quite sad indeed.

Grab your friends or die
Thats halo. Only in FFA do you solo.

It’s practically impossible to win, i go 4-7-15, but i’m so confused on how i die. I’m 20 timex better than what my ststs say.

Most of the time the kill cam doesn’t show them actually shoting me or im behind cover when i die.

Very frustrating

So much more emphasis on team work now. Stay with your group and learn the new dynamics of this game. Playing with a random group usually results in everyone on different parts of the map. No good lol
