Post by: Stoeipoes on April 27, 2010, 04:21:31 AM: ALT what's your gamertag on live? And Cthulhu, are you going to play the beta too?

I'm really looking forward to the ''invasion'' gametype.

That's a Spartan vs. Elite online misscion, with also vehicles and stuff. As seen from 01:30 in this clip:

odst is pretty okay too.

Post by: ster on April 30, 2010, 01:01:29 AM: in the friends and family beta right now

the game feels like halo, but not at the same time also. the dmr takes getting used to. the needle rifle i think is better, though. groundshield thing is overpowered sorta, assassinations are kinda regular, pistol is at least decent.

elites + roll = awesome, though

Title: Re: HALO: Reach beta May the 3rd
Post by: ALT on May 03, 2010, 04:01:45 PM: Over all its pretty fucking sick. Melee is really fucking over powered though

covy slayer or invasion

and thanks to the beta i'm sick of 1 flag

also, melee takes awhile to get used to. even if they have 1% shield, melee would only take out the shield and none of the health. its stupid, i think.

pistol and dmr also take getting used to. once you do though, you're just a walking destruction machine.

Post by: Stoeipoes on May 12, 2010, 05:20:05 PM: Since everybody here is playing skate 3 I've been playing halo reach too much.

I like it a lot. I played it on my dad'sbig screen for the past week. Now he's back so I moved upstairs again.

The vehicles are kinda messed. Hard to control.
