Noble almost 3/4 of the way to Eclipse ^^

They fix stupid spots like pinnacle in infection, the space portion of Arena Zealot, etc. to make the game a little more fun for people, so why not at least make it so that if you're playing BTB that you can't have more than a party of 8? According to you, it's totally fair and right to have a couple people sit on the other team and just betray them. Yea, their stats affect other peoples when they get a huge group and everybody on the other team goes completely negative because your own teammates are betraying you. And no, I don't exactly get to pick my opposing team in matchmaking, sorry. But in all my time of playing halo, there are few things that make me as mad as when I run into a group of kids who do this. Yes, it can be stopped, by limiting the amount of people that can play. No, it shouldn't be exploited like it has been.

I've been the guy with the laser in that issue lol. I would've had another Red Menace if it weren't for that though :/ triple kill gone haha. Another weird thing that's happened: standing on top of a falcon with two gunners flying in the air, it gets shot with a rocket while I'm trying to laser someone on the ground and BAM! 3 betrayals, I get kicked while leading the team >.> My laser wasn't even halfway charged either! lol

Uhh do you guys have two seperate Xbox's? This has somewhat happened to me. One day I signed in on another Xbox and found myself wearing default armor, no campaign completion, service tag random again, etc. But I was able to just put my old armor back on, still had all my credits, but lost my campaign progress (which doesn't really bother me, I've gotten all the achievements). If it just completely switched your stuff, I guess that would be a different story. I'm assuming you've already tried turning the Xbox on and off lol. But yea, if it doesn't fix itself I'd probably go with that guys idea ^^

Okay, I see this ALL the time, but I just don't see it. In your opinion, what's better: Halo 3, or Halo Reach? My opinion, Reach is better. Yea, 3 is fun and all, but jumping as if gravity's just a suggestion, the graphics, and no bloom just gets to me. I love the grunts, vehicles, grav hammer, and campaign (except the brutes), but it's just not enough to sway my opinion. Reach brings so much more to the table. The graphics are soo much more clear, Armor abilities (even armor lock) are amazing, I prefer Reach's sniper, the bloom makes it take a little more skill to actually get the kill, you get your own spartan and insert yourself into its life, it's just awesome. I mean, I've played all the games when they came out a LOT with friends, but never actually had my own xbox until Reach... But after countless days on Halo 3, the first couple hours was enough to make me love Reach. Your opinion?

I think it's awesome being able to use a wide variety like that! And that the Carbine isn't useless like the Needle Rifle.

Totally forgot Delta Facility! And because of a personal streak of bad luck and tv screaming, I don't care much for Asphalt anymore either.

FF doubles needs to come back. My friend and I try to get FF challenges from time to time, and when the daily is something like "Get 100 precision kills" or something, and everyone you pair up with is using jetpack + Rockets and Fuel Rods, it's almost impossible! I also miss Action Sack and Anniversary BTB. I always thought objective games on Ridgeline were so much fun...

Why won't there be a health bar under the shields in Halo 4? :/ I thought that was a great feature!

Well alright thanks anyways. I've known a few people getting credit reset and all but that was a long time ago. Oh well I guess. Thanks!

I think I've found a group of boosters, and don't know where to report them. Also, I wanted to get a majority opinion before I reported said person so I don't report for the wrong reasons. Here's what happened: Friends and I playing BTB. We were paired up against a group of 10 people, 2 of which were obviously put on our team. The two on our team kept driving the other team around in warthogs, so you couldn't blow them up without getting a betrayal.... >.> Some of the people would also hide on the other team, not even moving. there were 5 inheritors in total...kind of irritating. But I did remember one persons GT, and decided to look him up on waypoint. His 2.76 k/d would be impressive, if I didn't think he boosted for almost every kill. I took a screenshot leaving out his GT and such, right here: I can't say I can believe all those high multi-kills, perfections, unfrigginbelievables, etc. So my question is where would I report someone like this? I don't think it's fair whatsoever, and it infuriated my whole xbox live party causing everyone to quit playing. I'm certain I'm not the only one that got this angry. Once again, I'm sorry if this isn't in the right forum, but it's Halo Reach, and I'm not sure where else to post.

I saw the post about what your favorite map was, and well, I liked so many. But the thing was, the only thing I could think of was how I hated so many maps too. So here's the question: What's your least favorite map(s) in Reach? Mine would be: Swat - Powerhouse, Boardwalk, Temple, and Campdown. ... er, Countdown. Yea, that map where everyone just hides behind the vents. BTB - Hemmorhage! God! If you're not the one with the sniper, BTB Slayer is AWFUL on Hemmorhage! My friends and I just drop our controllers now when we get it. And borderline Abridged...it's just too big and I always fall off on that one side.. >.> Infection - Spooky Base, Asylum, and Pandemic. Invasion - Boneyard(kinda), Overgrowth, and the worst map of all time, Floodgate. On a side note, Hemmorhage is the only good map on Team Snipers, but then again if you're blue team you basically lost. The spawns, teleporters, caves and cliffs all benefit Red Team, and is just totally unfair. I do say Hemmorhage objective gametypes are pretty fun however. Keep in mind, this is my opinion, I just want to know yours ^.^

Sword Base for Swat, Cragmire for BTB Heavies, and even Boardwalk for Alpha Zombies. But no matter the gametype, I love Breakpoint <3

I love Reach, but I'll probably stick to Halo 4, but that also depends on how much different the multiplayer on 4 is.

I'm great with the precision weapons, but my favorites are definitely the Energy Sword first, then the Spartan Laser. I love the sword, it's just too fun, and the laser always makes me want to get sunburst...which I just can't seem to get >:l

Will Hologram be in Halo 4? If so, I think it would be cool to make Hologram a little more interesting, like give it a vehicle EMP. I say vehicle because it'd be stupid if you send out a clone and an enemy pummels it and drops their own shield, but I think it would be awesome to throw a clone out sit behind a rock, and watch a ghost just come to a halt because it tried to run you over. Very convenient stop to the unstoppable gauss hog too, with the help of a plasma of course.

Just keep a steady hand while combining strafing and jumping, but also steady hand on your reticle thumb too. But most importantly, pace yourself. More times than I can count I've killed people with 5 shots when they take about a whole clip. Don't take too long, but if you fire at a steady pace, your bloom will never get too big and you'll do fine. After you drop their shields, if you got some shields left, really take your time and just get that headshot. I play quite a bit of swat and BTB so I'm pretty familiar with a DMR.

My highest for Swat with a full team was 34, when my team quit except one kid who never touched his controller I got 46 lol. But BTB I've gotten 68.

I love the Mark V, any attachment or none really. I like to use the Air Assault with the 1st attachment sometimes too.

Yea if you are in a group of people who all have the anniversary maps, then they can be an option for the gametype you're trying to play. Example: Big Team Battle - if everyone has the Anniversary maps, then you can play places like Ridgeline, High Noon, and I think it's Breakneck? not sure, but yes, it's still possible.

Well I had 2 killing frenzies and 3-4 killing sprees I can't remember, quite a few headcases, a showstopper, plenty of multikills, assassinations etc. I just don't get it haha oh well I guess.

So after playing for about a year and a half now, I had just played my first 4 games of Arena ^^ my rating was 1479, but everywhere I look people say that is average level. I don't see how though... We won all 4 games, I had 48 kills, 11 assists, and 12 deaths. That's a 4.0 k/d and 4.92 k&a/d. Do I have to keep getting games like that to rank it up higher, or what? I'm just having a little trouble figuring out why a 4.0 is average in Arena, but impossible in regular matchmaking, any help appreciated ^^ (not trying to sound bigheaded, just curious..)

I disagree with the forge lobby, simply because you might find some kid trolling and he goes and deletes everything you do instead of helping you. But as for matchmaking idea, that sounds pretty cool. I don't know about CTF though, there would be people who make it impossible to get to the flag, or escape with it.

Not sure where to post this, I was thinking forge but it isn't really a question about forge, it's a question about settings for a custom game. Is there anyway to make it so that a person can ONLY die if he is stuck by a plasma grenade? Here's the backstory: Friend and I were messing around on forge one day, then we all decided it was the right time to start betraying each other, like any other day. Then, we started acting like quarterbacks, and one person would run out, the QB would throw a plasma grenade, and the person would try to catch it (of course after we did, we'd scream touchdown and start some rant about football). But that sparked my interest in a gametype where you'd actually get points for getting stuck, basically points for "catching grenades." Here's the gameplay: Slayer - One person spawns on a powerup that removes any sort of mobility, and is caged in (but still has room to throw plasma grenades). He spawns on and endless supply of plasmas as well. Anyone else spawns in a small, square room right out in front of the "Thrower." The thrower gets a point for sticking someone, and whoever gets stuck gets 2 points. 3 rounds, 2 minutes each round. The flaw, obviously, is even after taking away all weapon damage and everything, a grenade that is on the ground still kills anyone standing on top of it. So again, is there anyway that we could make it so that a person could only die if stuck by a plasma? It's actually really fun if it could work, because people would have sprint, roll, and jetpack trying to catch the grenades in mid-air, or running after them. If someone has a solution, that would be greatly appreciated!

I do not like the new maps. I actually came on here to start my own thread about how they need to be fixed. They all seem to have the same mechanisms used in their construction, with little changes between each. It's dumb. Here's a few things that are annoying beyond all control: 1. If a spartan takes the banshee, how the H$%L are the elites supposed to take it out? You can't just take a sniper or laser and return the favor, you have to get on a jetpack and get a lucky plasma pistol. Any good flyer of the banshee won't be taken out that easy though. 2. Yea, you made it so the elites can't dominate with the spartan heavy weapons. But now you have inexperienced people using the sniper, or not using it at all. 3. In most of the maps, especially floodgates, it's extremely easy to spawn kill! Whether it's a DMR as they walk up to you or actually spawn kill on tier 1, it's really hard to get by the first objective sometimes. I actually played a game with Oakley HiDef the other day (one of the makers) and I thought it was sad. We were dominating their team so bad that we were spawn killing them, all of there teammates quit, and they were completely shut down. Fix them. Let the Elites have some way of being able to jack spartan heavy weapons, or don't let the Spartans have access to the Banshees. Give them less DMRs, or more coverage to make it a bit easier to obtain the objectives. I'm sick of getting about 35 kills per game, but it not even mattering because of the rest of our team getting spawn killed by DMRs. Spartans have WAY too much power in these maps, and I speak for a lot of people when I say they need to be fixed. Yea, they look cool and all, and have nice ideas. But the gameplay is almost always one sided towards the Spartans. I'm not saying I could do a better job, but I am voicing an opinion on the maps and not liking invasion as a whole at the moment. Breakpoint was the best innovation the playlist has had. I agree with jfusco there, that there should be more ideas like that instead. I also like the fact that THFE's maps are featured, just please fix them so it's a bit more enjoyable for the not-so-amazing players as well.
