I'm fine with this. My first game I went 4-12 and I was happy to not have some mouth breather telling me to go play another game.
Oh yeah, out of the dozen games I’ve played, i was trash in all except one. It’s been a minute.

It's such a different MP experience and so foreign to me, yet familiar at the same time. From many years away from Halo and playing so much COD and BF, it's an adjustment.
I also remember how much I hate the DMR.
ETA Is the battle rifle even in Reach? Haven't seen it yet.

I feel the same. I was hardcore into Halo 1-3, but Reach, 4, and 5 are the games I really only played the campaign and a few MP games.
That said, where are the big outdoor maps? Out of a dozen games, I played only one game that actually had vehicles. Is there no Blood Gulch/Sidewinder equivalent in this game?
Yes, the DMR sucks. I don't think the BR is in this game and we won't get it until Halo 2 unfortunately.

I want to say there's a Blood Gulch remake in this one. Plus another one that's similar that set in a more snowy environment. Trying to look it up.
I honestly have to say that MAYBE I didn't play as much Reach as the others? There were a few maps that I was kind of clueless on.

Yeah, I'm gonna check out the map lists when I get home. I played two maps that are remakes of Ascension from Halo 2 and Battle Creek from Halo 1 that were fun. The rest weren't too interesting.
Cannot wait for Halo 1 and 2, loved those maps.

If Halo CE has that pistol, I'll be all over it. 2.........I know people love it but that's when the BXR crap started getting big and I wasn't having a good time.
I loved 3, and regardless of how most fans feel, I had a good time with 4.

Testing for CE is supposed start in a couple weeks. It's the next one for PC.

Anyone using controller on PC?
Posted on 12/4/19 at 9:52 am to sicboy
The scoped pistol is on Halo Reach. I can't remember if its as good as the Halo CE pistol though.

Might try using my Xbox One controller tonight to see how it feels. I only used it for Dark Souls and Sekiro.

We need to get Steam IDs in the OP.

Yep. Just how I play Halo and until I see a reason that I need to make a switch (didn't see it last night), I'll stick with it.

Doubt it. CE pistol was pretty OP, 3 head shots and you're down and it had ridiculous range (I loved taking out tank drivers on Blood Gulch with a pistol). The CE Anniversary ended being 4 re-skinned (or whatever Halo game that was out at that time) and just used that pistol.

Just replying to whoever cause so much happened since yesterday in this thread
Unless I missed something, custom games should absolutely be in the game. Right under Multiplayer -> bottom option. I can't remember its name as I was just on my way to play matchmaking.
BR never existed in Reach. DMR is the closest you will get. Bloom, though silly and shouldn't have been introduced, can be controlled to your advantage. TU (Title Update) bloom is no where near as bad as vanilla. If you want to see vanilla settings, play Invasion, and you will get the memo.
The pistol in Reach is one of the closest cousins to CE's pistol you will see in the Halo series. I think it has a scope, but I do know it's an efficient headshot weapon IF you can control the intense bloom. Patience and shite.
There is a wide variety of big, open maps. Just play BTB and you will see them. Blood Gulch has an equivalent called Hemorrhage. There have been a wide variety of CE/2/3 maps recreated in Reach, many of them within the already included DLC.
Controller is, as expected, pretty much dominant from what I can tell. I've been sticking to controller seeing as how that's what I've been doing for my entire life of playing Halo, and definitely see no reason to change. Halo never was about making it hard to hit a shot, it was meant to be a challenge to hit consistent headshots. Controller excels at hitting shots by default, but you are responsible for the headshots. That's where the skill comes in particularly. KBM is responsible for both details, to which I say Godspeed.
Forge is coming to PC, and as far as I know it's already on Console for Reach. The console variant has everything currently to the best of my knowledge (I'm on both platforms), and file sharing is supposed to be cross-platform. In other words, if someone on Xbone makes a map in forge and uploads it to file sharing, a PC player should have access to it.

Halo Reach was the new game out. Oh boy lol.
Dude yes, sniping tanks was cool. I'm so used to being indestructible in tanks in other games, I forgot that small arms fire can mess you up in a tank in Halo. Definitely a wake up call.

My only gripe with the game is the audio sounds really bad... I know it was different back in the day with compression and whatnot but it just doesn't sound good. I found the default FOV was pretty good.. I increased it from 78 to 88 and my mouse sens from 1.6 to 2.2. Feels great.

Did they stick to sprint only loadouts or can you evade like the original release?
Posted on 12/4/19 at 11:50 am to southpawcock
The audio is definitely wrong, and 343 has acknowledged that. They're working on a long term fix.
