Weapon models look amazing and the game has less hick ups than Halo 3 - it was pretty polished for a beta.
Gameplay wise it's the best halo yet. It combines everything I loved about Halo and it got rid of everything I hated about them as well. However, i'm not to keen on the whole health pack thing, if your eyes aren't sharp you won't be able to find them | The good points there outweigh the bad points so I don't see how Reach would be the "bastard child" of the franchise.
And about the health packs. Have you never played Halo 1 or ODST? :rofl:
EDIT: Been playing the beta since the day it went live. Primary reason as to why I haven't been very active lately. That, and work. Been meaning to add a dozen or so files to the halofiles site that I help run. I have Friday all to myself so i'll be a lot more active on the network then.
On the Reach beta itself, it is pretty good. I don't like the overuse of jetpacks though. Would also have preferred to have the playlists that were promised to us by Bungie that would be in the beta. |
