Make Halo 4 more like Reach, Halo 3 was like a bunch of legos jumping around too high, not being able to sprint, and constantly using stupid bubble shields and other pointless equipment like a grav lift.
Also Halo Reach was a lot more customizable. You could make your spartan look a lot cooler.
I know that the majority of people liked 3/2 but I am just saying, there’s still people out there that loved Reach the most. So at least have 1 game type in matchmaking similar to Reach…
EDIT: Since this topic is getting more popular and I didn’t go into a lot of detail, I am going to list more reasons why Reach was my favorite Halo.
1.Better graphics
2.Better storyline BY FAR
3.Prequel to Halo 1.
4.The stuff you can unlock in the armory is awesome
5.The creativity in the ranks compared to just numbers (including arena)
6.Invasion.
7.New game types like headhunter and stockpile
8.Amazing maps like Anchor 9 and Tempest
9.Forge World>Sandbox
10.Armor abilities adding more diversity to gameplay
11.Plenty of playlists for hardcore players and casual players.
12.The amount of different medals you can get
13.Commendations
14.WE CAN FINALLY SPRINT
15.New weapons like the focus rifle, plasma launcher, grenade launcher, concussion rifle, and needle rifle
16.Being able to see someones Kills/deaths/assists in the lobby
17.custom games!
18.Same health system as halo 1.
Anyways… I just want 343 to know that I am not the only one as well. So please do not make Halo 4 just an improved Halo 3. Keep some elements from Reach as well!!

Calling Grav Lift pointless is blasphemy!
Out of all the equipment in Halo 3 it was the only one that brought a smile to my face whenever I picked it up.
It was a great help for getting into the base on Highground.

That’s entirely your opinion, unfortunately for you Halo 4 isn’t going to be made like Reach because of its unprecendented overall neglect due to its substantial antipathy. I’m glad that Reach is almost over and there will not be a sequel.
Halo 4 should be like Halo 3 more then any other game.

I think he’s being legititimate, there are Reach lovers out there too you know. Me I don’t hate Reach, I like it, but I don’t adore it and I don’t think it was anything as good as it should of been.

Agreed. The only thing that Halo 4 will share from Reach is the engine that powered that game. Hopefully 343 does a good job with It.

We are sharing sprint, and I suspect that our Spartan customization will better than Reach - (which set the bar). We may have some kind of AA improved system. Assassinations will return. I think it’s funny how so many people are disregarding Reach’s blatant influence on this game just because of this thread, when before, people complained that it is mostly similar to Reach now. Now y’all are saying Reach isn’t in H4 lol. I think it’s a combination of Reach.and 3 with it’s own special kick to it.
And for the record, I like Reach as well. Do not call op a troll for adoring reach so much.

You do realize that you just said the majority of people preferred Halo 2/3 over Reach right? In which case I agree.
In history, the majority usually outweighs the minority. Reach was without doubt the worst Halo imo and I look forward to seeing the back of it.

Not really anyone here said that some of Reach’s features weren’t going to be impemented into Halo 4, they said that Halo 4 is simply going to be more like the other Halo’s. The arguement of the original post is how much Halo 4 is going to be like in comparison to the other Halo games and that’s exactly what I was trying to give light to; an obvious contradiction.
I guess but don’t you think your trolling on the other halo games just a little bit too much, and I’m sure at halo 4 will satisfy you dude, 343 won’t deny us of the EPICNESS.

> Reach is the best especially in the Campaign . even if it was just a side story
From a story telling/narrative structure point of view, most Halo games, including Reach, have been terrible. I say that as a long time fan of all the games. The first game followed structure but, as was the case with many games of the time, was far too simplified. Halo 2 got it right for the most part, except of course the abrupt ending (even then though, Arbiter’s story follows a proper arc). Halo 3 was pretty good but some things were rushed and there were too many clichés. Clichés are a major problem with modern story telling and each game has had its share of them. Reach had the most but Wars had the strongest. Reach’s campaign had potential but wasn’t fleshed out enough. ODST worked more as a side story but still had poor characterisation (oh yeah, I went there).
