I dunno about that…
When I heard about the TU and how it would punish armor lockers, I was like “HECK YES I WANT A TITLE UPDATE”
but it turns out that I’m actually better at Vanilla Reach!
What do you guys think? I personally would like team slayer to stay as Vanilla as it always has been.
It most likely will, as that playlist was has always been primarily made up of those who want “pure” Vanilla Reach with all of the topping, meaning those who still play it most likely prefer pre-TU.
I wouldn’t fret too much about it.
It should stay as Vanilla, but because of the way it is being done, TU will ALWAYS be chosen and will win the vote.
Sad to see Vanilla TS go, it was the only core Halo 4v4 Slayer with teams left.
If it pisses off all the AL noobs, then i’m all for it!
But seriously, I say it’s about freaking time. The TU settings are much more balanced and fair.
Tu, no doubt in my mind.
step closer to getting rid of the billion different settings mentality.

As far as I know, that was fixed when 343 fiddled with the Pistol in TU settings.
If 343 goes off pure votes, I believe vaniila will remain, but to be honest it is my belief that it should be game wide, everybody will adjust, since they have to.

Perhaps, though it’s a shame that the vote system that they’re using is so flawed since they don’t keep in mind the opinion of the players that don’t take the time to vote. Those people might prefer the vanilla gametypes, and will then complain and possibly quit the game when they see that everything has been changed to TU settings and vice versa. Sure, the people who don’t vote might not care about what they get, but I’m still willing to bet that they do prefer one over the other.

pretty sure when the updates hit. we will get that pop up message. Really hope they are vocal about the importance of this.
Besides default reach gets the top spot the first week, which is a advantage over TU

If they allow us to vote then I cant be upset with the outcome, it is the fairest way, however I honestly believe the TU being implemented gamewide is almost assured now =/
> Those people might prefer the vanilla gametypes, and will then complain and possibly quit the game when they see that everything has been changed to TU settings and vice versa.
This is a concern for me too, I would prefer that 343 use their time to give players that love the game, more to love ie:rank in other playlist, reforged maps and new playlist, (some of which they did) but changing the game to please those that dont like it, so they hate it a little less is a dangerous game.

The simple facts are this, the TU magnifies a players ability, if you are good you get better, if your not so good, well, you get a little more not so good. I do fine and I suspect most on this forum do as well, but there is going to be alot of younger players that are not going to know what hit them.

I never hated Reach. for one I always though this game had potential to be really good. the TU does that for me
You do strike a good point of the other focus areas 343 should be working on though.
Hey, which is a better idea. Changing and updating Reach for the people who love it to love it even more and to continue to play it even more, or changing and updating Reach for the small but very vocal minority who wants the game to be Halo 3.5 who have probably already traded in Reach?
wait…
Does team slayer now have TU and Vanilla settings in it?
> wait…

It will have both for a period of two weeks after the 7th.

Uh, last time I checked, the TU settings play NOTHING like Halo 3. There is no Br spread, no floaty jumps, powerups, or good maps ;P. The only thing that is even remotely similar are the kill speeds. If you would, wipe that BS off your shoes next time you share your opinion.
I hate the Title Update because of the bleed-through. Bleed-through alone is ruining this game for me.
At least 343 is giving the full community (those that play the playlist) a chance to voice their opinions through voting. So if you want Vanilla Reach, make sure to vote for it! There is no excuse.
Personally, if the voting shows that Team Slayer should go TU, I don’t even think that should happen. TU Team Slayer and Arena would basically be the same. If that was the case, I would make Squad Slayer the social slayer playlist, while Team Slayer/Arena would the one ranked playlist.
Except for the autofire NR with 85% bloom, TU Reach is just better than Vanilla. Now, ZB with advanced settings like MLG is a completely different game.
Can someone explain what the Bleed-Through is?
> Can someone explain what the Bleed-Through is?
Damage inflicted on a player can go through their shields and into their health. Before, you needed to ‘pop’ their shields, then kill them, cause the shields and health are separated. Bleed-through makes it so that shields and health are directly linked to one another, almost as if they are on the same bar.
The reason why I and others dislike bleed-through is because it not only alters the way Halo Reach is played, but it makes melees and grenades much more powerful. It also makes it so that even if you have a little bit of shielding left, a single head shot will still kill you.
