What does 343 think of reach?

I remember reading somewhere that they disliked it and said it didn’t “feel” like Halo. Is this correct or not?

I honestly hope they hate it! Reach did some good things but I think AA’s (Have no place) were poorly executed and definately could have been better! So question two what do you think 343 thinks of Reach?

I don’t recall ever hearing anything about that, and I doubt it’s true.

I don’t think they’re thinking about Reach much right now at all when they’ve got Halo 4’s release date bearing down on them.

Shouldn’t this be in the Halo Reach section?

But yeah, they didn’t say that specifically but I remember Frankie or someone saying in a podcast that certain things about the gameplay annoyed them. Like AL or something…

343i can’t “hate” or “like” Reach. There’s hundreds of employees. I’m sure some people like it and some people dislike it. Regardless, their official opinion of it will never be negative. Enforcing negativity around their franchise would be counterproductive.

Well I don’t think this should be in the Reach section as it pertains to how Halo 4 Multiplayer could possibly turn out but I see you point Dreezy

I know Frankie really likes it.

Reach did step a little too far away from its roots but it’s still a great game nonetheless.
343i has fixed this.

This may be what you remember…

Frankie specifically said that Reach went in the wrong direction, which is just a way to not bash Bungie but still say that he disliked it.

As flawed as Halo : Reach was / is… I still think it was a positive step in the right direction for the franchise. Sprint NEEDS to be in the new Halo games.

No, it does not, nor does any other AA.

I’ll also add that I have thoroughly enjoyed Halo : Reach even more so than previous Halo games. (Played them all) The campaign was by far the best and I enjoyed the new additions even w/ their flaws which can be improved upon. I think Squad Slayer as it is right now w/ the TU is about the most fun I’ve had w/ a Halo multiplayer game.

Also I read or watched Frank say that he really liked Reach.

This. well said. close thread.

At least i love it :smiley:

I remember reading a post on NeoGaf by Frankie talking about how they loved Reach.

I’ll see if I can find the post.

I remember the exact opposite. I believe you are the troll good sir.

I’m sure they would never say anything like that.
