The future of Halo looks BLEAK

  1. Why is the melee on Halo Anniversary the complete opposite of Halo 1? It is identical to HALO REACH…aka terrible.

  2. Why are their armor lock and loadouts on Halo Anniversary when Halo 1 had none of them? Halo REACh has them. They are horrendous.

Halo 4 better be more like Halo 1, Halo 2 and Halo 3. NOT LIKE HALO REACH.

The melee is NOT identical to Reach. It’s a 3 melee kill in Anniversary and a 2 in Reach.

And Anniversary Classic has NO armor abilities. If you don’t like AA’s, play Classic.

It’s that simple.

  1. Halo Anniversary’s Melee system is identical to Halo: CE’s. The only thing that differs in Anniversary is the graphics and cutscene animations. If you think it’s the same as Reach’s. You’re clearly imagining things.

  2. Halo: Anniversary has Halo: Reach’s multiplayer…I seriously don’t know how you missed the giant words saying “HALO: REACH MULTIPLAYER” on the main menu. Maybe you should get rid of that select vision.

  3. Halo 4 will be exactly what it’s going to be. If you don’t like it. Too bad.

Also, Snicker. I think this guy believes that Halo: Anniversary uses Halo: CE’s “multiplayer” which is why he’s saying it has Armor Abilities.

Really? Your last thread complaining about Reach’s melee was locked so you make another one? Great idea.

My point I was saying before the thread was frozen, apparently because “Waypoint” doesn’t allow for discerning views, the “Halo” franchise is dying. That’s the reason for including these Armor Abilities and other terrible additions in the game that are not true to “Halo.” In trying to gain more fans, they’ve sold their soul to try and make more money. The life of “Halo” offically dies when the servers for “Halo: 3” are taken offline.

I respect your opinion and all, but it’s got to be said.

People like you, who just assume the game is going to be bad because of change make me sick to my stomach. If you don’t like the idea, don’t buy the game. See how much 343 or the rest of the community care.

So, I’m guessing you would like Halo 4 to essentially be a remake of Halo 3? What’s so bad about letting a series develop new ideas over time?

Im assuming Kro wants Halo 4, Halo 5, Halo 6 to be more like Halo 1, Halo 2 and Halo 3…NOT LIKE HALO REACH. It’s pretty obvious that’s what he’s saying. He doesn’t want Halo 4 to have custom loadouts or have melee being all but taken away.

And I’m sick of people defending the melee on Halo Reach. What makes me think Halo 4 is going to have this problem fixed? When Halo Anniversary came out and was just like Halo Reach and not Halo 1; that is not a good sign for HALO 4.

The people who played Halo 1 and Halo 2 when it started are being forced to play call of duty. I agree with Carnivorous to the T!

> Im assuming Kro wants Halo 4, Halo 5, Halo 6 to be more like Halo 1, Halo 2 and Halo 3

So you want The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith lol.

And melee isnt broken, you are. Learn to defend yourself or keep on getting -Yoink!--slapped in-game, simple as that.

Yah im broken. That makes a lot of sense. (sarcastic)
So over half of my kills in Halo 2 and 3 are via melee and in Halo Reach none of them are. Thats a little off. Thousands and thousands of setting up players with shots and finishing them off with a melee and now in HALo Reach and Anniversary that doesn’t happen. You just keep bashing and bashing them. Its like the sword clanging in Halo 3…terrible.

Flash for you buddy. When the Halo 3 servers shut down, so will Halo 3 ODST’s, and Halo Wars’s, and Halo Reach’s, and Halo 4’s, and Halo CEA’s online coop. And so will all of the COD games for 360, and all of the Battlefield games for 360, and deadspace online for 360. Because when the Halo 3 servers shut down, it will be when the Xbox 360 Live servers shut down. Just look, when Halo 2 shut down, I don’t think you really looked, or even played any other xbox original games online. Halo 2 was the best xbox original game online, providing many things that everybody loved that shaped today’s live. But on April 15th, Microsoft shut down the xbox original Live servers down for good. That included other games besides Halo 2.

So, when the Halo 3 servers are taken down, then so will all the others, and the new xbox will be out by then reigning on it’s own live of individuals and kids who like to say, “Yeah, the 360 servers shut down. But nobody cared about the 360.” Which is the same way some kids today act about the original. I don’t understand why they say that.

In closing, by the time the Halo 3 servers shut down, you will have a different opinion about what you are saying, or a different opinion toward Halo all together. In my opinion, it won’t be as good because the greatest game studio ever, Bungie, left Halo to work on a new game. I am actually more excited about Bungie’s unrevealed game rather than the next Halo. Because Bungie is the best. But this is getting off topic. Basically, you’re losing faith in something that you haven’t truly experienced. Why is that? Think your answer through, don’t just say, “Because Halo 1 2 and 3 were the best!” (Even though Halo 1 and 2 were the best [I can argue against 3 quite alot])

And once it is all said and done, what are you going to do? You could always connect through XBC once the servers go down. Ever thought of that. You could still play Halo 3 after the Xbox 360 Live servers go down. Problem solved.

Well anyway, that was mini, and I’m going to sleep. See you later.

P.S. Why are you posting on the Reach forum if you hate it so much. Keep the Halo 4 hate in the Halo 4 forum please. Thank you.

With this post, you have proven the point i was making better than you even know.

Lol, people bash on Call of Duty for not changing yet when faced with change they moan about and demand that the game never changes. What a bunch of hypocrites.

Quit your whining Reach was a fun Game so was all of the other halos, Halo 4 is going to be its own game if you don’t like it tough. Stop comparing games there try to be different from the previous installment. Also here is a tip… ADAPT

It is called HALO REACH, not halo ce multiplayer. If you want HALO 3, go play HALO 3 and not REACH, I bet your one of the people that betrays for a sniper.

It’s just easier to say you’re bad at aiming…

lol or what?

Hilarious. Not one person has mentioned how bad the melee is on Halo Reach or how bad the armor lock and Sprint are. All are avoiding this original post. All of you are long range boring halo players. You dont use the melee. In fact you hide and then use the sprint to run away from up close battles.

All you only use LONG range weapons like the Battle Rifle and Sniper. None of you battle up close. You all hide and steal kills with your BR and sniper rifle. You all avoid up close battles. Up close battles make games much more fun for everyone. Not boring. Go hide up top and crouch and BR.
I dont betray for snipers because i dont use snipers. I use GRENADES, MELEE and Assault Rifle.
And I never played Call of Duty so Im not a hypocrite for asking WHY THE MELEE is terrible in Reach. Im talking about REACH and the future of Halo in this post. Hence the halo reach forum.

I like melee, but I like forge better.
