It can be fun but there are just way too many things wrong with this game. I'll list some of the main ones.
- Only one person can watch films ... Yeah, ONE person. Our theatre abilities went backwards. So on top of making up to 4 people able to watch the same film at once, make it so that clips don't take 5 minutes to load (just to usually kick both players out of the lobby anyway).
- We only got 5 or 6 new maps. Only ONE is symmetrical (Zealot) and people just camp in space when they get a lead.
- The bloom ruins all aggressive play (it's hard to rush in and kill multiple people when it takes 20 minutes killing 3 people when i pace my shots).
- Rockets have waaaay too much splash damage, it doesn't ever seem to matter how far away you are, you WILL die.
- Bloom on the sniper is pointless because you can't fire until the bloom resets anyway, it's just obnoxious.
- The slow movement speed and jump height really dumb down the game and map remakes all need to be altered so we can still throw in the jumps we could do on them.
- Decoy perks are probably the most annoying thing in Halo (especially in snipers)
- Forge world outside of the initial room is retarded. Each area is set up to make one map (like bloodglutch ascension etc.). Trying to make anything else in those areas is a lost cause.
- No ranking system at all, nuff said.
- When i'm in a pregame lobby there's no easy access to his games played+games won so when you combine that with no ranks it's impossible to get a good idea of how good your opponents will be.
And here's the worst one (for me). When you are playing co-op campaign online with friends or firefight matchmaking and your connection ISN'T really solid, you experience what seems like input lag so when i hit jump i have to wait 2 seconds before i jump on the screen and worse i aim partly with my movement which also lags, so you can just imagine how much fun that is for me.
Anyway /rant
tl;dr Reach has problems
good points.. the fact that they made the ascension remake and ivory tower was retarded they could have just let the community build them and spent time build other better maps..
