Title Update Discussion

Does anyone have proof that this was in Bungie’s armory? Many people have said this, yet I have not seen a single screenshot ro video confirming this.

From my understanding, the TU is going to add options for the designers to turn on and off, or change the functionality of things in the game so they can give anniversary the classic feel. Since the casual and competitive gamers like to bicker over what is good and bad in games, why not just apply this to Halo 4. Have casual playlists where people get bloom, armor lock, etc. and have competitive playlists where there is no bloom, no auto aim, bullet magnetism, aim acceleration, etc. (or at least much less of them)
Seems like it would be a good idea for the community, it would split it apart but a larger crowd could enjoy the game everyone would be happier, or at least more-so than now.

Because that’s basically two different games. It would be a pain in the -Yoink- to code for, I would think.

Title update 343i should:

Make like 500mb update.

Mod BR, halo3 physics and equipment (bubble shield, regenerator etc) only for these maps (classic playlist):
The Pit
Guardian
Narrows

Possibly charge 800 ms points. And Reach will automatically become 2x better.

DONE.

If this happens we will easily get Halo3 number of online players again.

Most wanted in TU for reach is:

- 2-4 Player viewing in theater
- More Armor
- Change the melee system
- Change sword lung
- Fix Spawn System
- Change arena’s Rating/Division system
- Reduce Grenade damage or Explosion radius
- You shouldn’t die with one grenade when red bar
- Reduce or Remove DMR bloom
- Have a limit in armor abilities(AA’s should be treated as weapons and should be limited as you use them)

>>>> MOST IMPORTANTLY: BRING BACK THE ELEPHANT <<<<

**vGarciaah:**Most wanted in TU for reach is:

- 2-4 Player viewing in theater agree
- More Armor agree
- Change the melee system make opinional, do it for MM
- Change sword lung make opinional, do it for MM
- Fix Spawn System agree
- Change arena’s Rating/Division system agree
- Reduce Grenade damage or Explosion radius AGREE! Halo 3 had best
- You shouldn’t die with one grenade when red bar agree
- Reduce or Remove DMR bloom turn of/on option
- Have a limit in armor abilities(AA’s should be treated as weapons and should be limited as you use them) Make more options how to use it:Example: You pick it up, use it up, and it’s gone.

>>>> MOST IMPORTANTLY: BRING BACK THE ELEPHANT <<< <—F! YEAH

Get a filter. Anybody under the age of 17, can not play Halo. Lets see how much gameplay changes. I put all my pay checks down, that not one person, will pick anything other than Slayer Pro forever. Lol just saying.

Time and time again people suggested this and time and time again the same answer was people can just lie about age. It isn’t going to work :stuck_out_tongue:

Lol. I know. But we can dream.

Ok I’m younger than 17, but I’m still mature. Younger than 17? Is Halo rated R!? lol.

> Ok I’m younger than 17, but I’m still mature. Younger than 17? Is Halo rated R!? lol.

Essentially, M is the ESRB equivalent to an R-rating.

people who think like this don’t deserve to play Halo =/

> people who think like this don’t deserve to play Halo =/

People who think that less kids=more Pro or that kids under 17 shouldn’t play M games?

> MOST IMPORTANTLY: BRING BACK THE ELEPHANT

Yessss!

Sorry. I buy my M rated games in hopes it’s not littered with kids that have bad parents letting them play these games. They always scream, cuss, and betray everybody. It’s annoying.

frankie i have one good question for you, will we see an kind of changes for the TU that are implimented somewhere else besides multiplayer, like campaign, firefight, custom games, forge, and or theater?

I forget who said it but they said Halo is based on Guns, Grenades and Melee. In Reach the guns barely hit anything you aim at. Melee is weak without the bleed-over (Which needs to come back) And Grenades can kill people from a mile away. Yes some of the armor abilities are good but I think there is still a lot to adjust with them.

Bloom - Not good for competitive play and extremely random. Spamming yields more kills than accurate shooting. Randomness is not good for shooters. I don’t want to be pulling the lever on the casino machine to get a lotto head shot.

That is my single biggest gripe with Reach.

Next: I see a bunch of the b-net mindset here which makes them feel the game should be catered to the casuals. This is the first time in any FPS that I have noticed people whining like it’s an MMO. NO other competitive shooter balances around the casual player. It’s not good for business and it’s not fun. I am not saying that MLG should be the only thing worried about in this game. But I think all aspects should be considered and we should be talking about what we can agree with to make halo better and not the reason why the hardcores are destroying the game. I’m sure many of the hardcore people could say a few nasty things about the casuals as well.

I believe we should have varied playlists like in halo 3. That is what separates the super competitive versus the casual friday night gamer. A shooter is always about who is the most accurate and who is the best. It’s not supposed to be a battle of casual to hardcore. It is entirely up to you to play with MLG players or not.

They should add a feature that lets you rate maps from a 1 star to a 5 star this would allow people to actually get their good maps at the top of the lists in the file browser and most downloaded and recomended is a joke its all garbage

As you may know, 343i has revealed that a Title Update will be implemented to Halo: Reach sometime in November. However, I recently realized that in November, we will have so many new games to play (i.e. Skyrim, Gears of War 3, Battlefield 3, possibly even Halo CEA) rather than a game that is over a year old. Also, who is to say that 343 does a good job on the TU? Certainly from what I have heard, it doesn’t look too good for a game that is already below par. My guess is that by November, or maybe even before that, Reach will have below 40k players left. This makes me question the logic of 343.

Discuss.

The TU will most likely give us more options to play with, ultimately revamping the Classic playlist into what people regard as truly classic. I have no doubt that that’ll bring a lot of people back.
