Top 5 Pet Peeves on Halo Reach

Games Other Halo
7

  1. People who take both Power Weapons the Sniper and RL and goes to the very edge of the map out of danger and goes afk with the weapons.

  2. Any form of complainers.

3.Broken Betrayal System.

  1. I’d like a ranking system like Batman Arkham City’s where if you did more combos or changed things up a bit the more XP you earn not just doing simple punches instead of the ranking system based on time spent playing but I’d rather not have the system where the rank could go down.

  2. Teammates who don’t act like teammates.

8

  1. People who disliked Reach before it was even released, yet bought it anyways and complained about it.

  2. People who couldn’t adapt to the way Reach was designed and instead complained for a TU to make it closer to Halo 2 and ignored the game anyways.

  3. People who think the only way to “balance” something is to remove it.

  4. People who like to pull stats out, but only when it can be used to “prove” that Reach is a failure in their eyes and ignore any rebuttals.

  5. People who dislike change.

> 11: When playing objective if a player is trying to reach a key position they take the warthog (A vital asset) rather than just taking the mongoose. Don’t screw over your team guys.

Don’t listen to him… If you take the mongoose to get an objective I will take the warthog to retrieve the mongoose.

> 5? Lets see how many I can come up with…

There’s a lot of hate going on in that post. While I read through it some of the points are legitimate problems, but for the most part it seems like one giant insult to EVERYONE that doesn’t play the way you want them to play.

My 5 would have to be:

Betrayals for weapon/vehicle

Betrayals so they can boot

Poor matching system

Poor map selection

Over emphasis on playing as a party or team (my best games are when 8 randoms are matched against 8 other randoms and nobody has a mic).

11

-Bloom
-Lack of bleedthrough
-Spawning with Armor Abilities
-The uselessness of all the weapons
-Bloom

12

  1. Quitters & Cheaters.

  2. Default settings/bloom, the TU updates FTW.

  3. Cheap tactics for the win, always. Seriously learn to have some crazy Halo fun now again would you.

  4. Armour Lock.

  5. Host Migration.

13

Ok, this should be read backwards.
1.The betrayal system. Get rid of friendly fire. To many people abuse it.
2.Getting spawn killed.
3.The spawning. There are lots of examples, but mainly teammates spawn to closely togather.
4.Armour Lock.
5.If your going to title update something, TU eveything.

14

1.People that criticize your record on forums, while hiding behind an alt with no stats so that you may not see theirs.

2.Changing a game for people that hate it.

3.A ranked version of gameplay missing the very thing that differentiates Reach from other Halos.

4.A credit system that leaves you with nothing to buy way to soon.

5.Black screens right before you are about to finish someone off.

15
  1. Armor Lock
  2. People from New Zealand/Australia messing up games with their 3rd world internet connections
  3. Teabagging (ok, I get it, you love men)
  4. Invis shotgun/snipe kids
  5. People who actually CARE about k/d
16

in no order:

1.host migration
2.people who eat bullets
3.yoinkers
4.AR noobs
5.double pummels
6.pistols and grenades in team snipers
7.BTB kids who cant DMR for -Yoink-
8.Kids who trash talk but wont 1v1 you
9.rocket hog race
10.armor lock
11.vehicle whores
12.vanilla needle rifle and pistol
13. kids without mics or who are in party chat in MLG games
14. reach
15. reach

17
  1. Black Screen in nearly every MM game
  2. Tea bagging (seriously only crappy players do this, and its just bad sportsmanship - however i will revenge -Yoink!- if they did it to me first, soooo where does it end?)
  3. Changes made after 343 (not flaming them, Halo 4 looks great but i dont like how they messed with Reach)
  4. Quitters - in EVERY invasion game
  5. Banshee whores
18

Those 5 words just made my day.

19
  1. Armor Lock/Camo any use of.
  2. Anyone who thinks Sword base is a good map.

Every thing else won’t urk me.

20

  1. Quitters. Don’t like the game, don’t play it!

  2. Intentional betrayals and suicides.

  3. BK teammates who run over my grenades then rage about me betraying them.

  4. Full teams of armour-lockers.

  5. Lack of a skilled based Ranking system (arena only exists as 4v4)

  6. Lack of party matching restrictions. (Squad Slayer I miss you)

21

  1. Bad maps / gametypes that get voted: Sword Base, AR starts, and Hemorrhage seriously don’t vote for them or I quit the match =)
  2. Armor Lock, so you fail at killing me so you go into invincibility to avoid dying? right.
  3. No DLC showing up / gets voted against when it shows up. Seriously anyone who doesn’t vote for the rare dlc maps that show up in the normal playlists like once a month should be banned. You like spending money on DLC and never playing it???
  4. Last guy on a team. Please quit and save us all the time of 7 mins of boredom. If you don’t I just will go after you all match killing you over and over. I have no mercy.
  5. Why the game gives me players who can go -17 and I go +15 in a game and still lose. So annoying.

I could write 3 books on all the fails in reach if I had to. This list is so short … lol

23
  1. Armor Lock
  2. Quiters
  3. Betrayers
  4. AFKers
  5. Armor Lock
24
  1. Blackscreens and host migrations
  2. Quitters/ Dashboarders before a game even starts.
  3. Kids who talk too much in games and lobbies in high pitched annoying voices
  4. Betrayers
  5. Poor matchmaking system. ie: parties Vs randoms, high ranks against low ranks.
25
  1. AFK in Firefight
  2. Purposeful betrayals in Grifball, just so both teams get the winning cR bonus or because I got matched up with 1 person who is in a party with the other team.
  3. Lucky DMR n00bs, who spam the trigger while I time my trigger pulls and I still end up dying.
  4. Host migration/black screen <— This is really obvious which side has the host in Grifball matches.
  5. I cannot count the number of times I get matched up with people who are rank Field Marshall or lower and they immediately quit out because someone on the other team is an Inheritor, leaving me in a 3v4 scenario playing SWAT, Snipers, or Grifball.
  6. Grifball in general, there is no telling how many times I will pull the trigger first and still lose the battle even though we’re standing equal distance from each other. Plus the fact that an entire team will get exterminated because the person holding the ball has double the shields and doesn’t seem to take any damage even if my hammer lands on their head.
26
  1. Kids who spawn with RL, commit suicide and spawn with Jetpack/FRG and abuse the crap out of them.
  2. AFKers
  3. People who play with guests get host get two votes for the price of one. Seriously, that’s BS, their opinion should not be worth more than someone who actually pays to play the game.
  4. Parties in FFA especially with kids who killfarm their guest by screen peeking. I’ve lost so many FFA matches by 1 point due to the host getting 10+ kills on his guest.
  5. X2 Score attack in FF Doubles. It’s easy enough by yourself and you get more kills too, so why not just leave it in the Score attack playlist?
  6. Idiots who stand on my Wraith and block my shots. I’ve played enough FF Limited where I’ve jacked a Wraith, so I’m almost God-like in one. So -Yoink-!
  7. When your spawnmate quits in Invasion. That sucks and blows.
  8. MLG kids who think they’re Sh*t hot and proceed to get dominated in Vanilla Reach then rage at you for being a “noob who can’t get kills without AL, RL, Plasmas, etc etc…” Here’s a hot tip for ya: Don’t remove 90% of the game and maybe you’ll be able to play better. If you’re good at MLG, then more power to you but don’t expect to be good at something completely different. I’m good at Vanilla Reach, but terrible at the MLG playlist. Do I give a crap? Nope, I just play Vanilla/TU Reach.
  9. Getting matched with people accross the world. I don’t hate them, I hate the fact that Reach can’t deal with it. I play a bunch of games with people from Japan to Mexico and even Russia and don’t get lag in any game… except Reach. Which is unfortunate because I’d love to play it with them. I still love the game, even with its shortcomings. Hopefully 343 can improve the awful lag situation in Halo 4.
  10. People Yoinking to be -Yoinks!-. If I start assassinating and get yoinked immediately, whatevs, he probably didn’t realise. Samething with grenades/vehicles, not a big deal. But when I’m halfway through the animation and herpaderp comes along and beats the guy down, that gets to me.
  11. Getting betrayed before the game ends. Newsflash, that counts as a death and damn right I’m gonna kick you. Nothing ruins a perfection like a betrayal right before the end. I don’t care if it happens in the middle of the game ex: Accidental splatter, rocket splash etc. But at the end when the game’s almost over… yeah FOOS DAS BOOT!
