It's called Team throwdown.

The Reach DMR. both the OP and title Update took a lot of skill. This DMR takes less skill. The BR takes no skill. I only have a 20 in throwdown but my BR is insane, so is my DMR. It took me so long to learn the DMR but the BR took a month and I can dominate with it. It's a true joke to say a weapon with no timing bloom for strength of shot that you can spray and pray is the end all be all.

There was ranking system in Reach. Arena Slayer. It appears it required to much skill since no on mention's it. The DMR is as skilled as it get's for a mid-slightly long range weapon. I can see why so many people who casually play hate it. But if you casually play don't cry that you get owned by DMR folks and your rank isn't high enough.

As a 30 year old man who has played all of the Halo's. Halo 2 super fan, Halo 3 I liked but was busy being a new dad so didn't play much, I found Reach in Jan of 2011 and wow it felt like Halo 2 on steroids..I know many noobs and players who lack proper skill hated Reach but no matter what they say it's because they couldn't get good enough learning the reticule bloom. Which IMO is one of the best innovations in FPS ever. I purchased Halo 4 yesterday. It has the parts to be a solid game but the final product in terms of matchmaking overall is so bad the only logic conclusion is the creators of Halo 4 built the game for 12 year old boys even though it's supposed to be for adults. No Arena or MLG? No Super Slayer? No Team Snipers? No ranking system? No Pro game types like MLG and Arena. So what? I own noobs with the DMR for some KEWL XP BUDDY DUDE TO GET MY EMBLEMS AND STUFF CAUSE THATS WHY I PLAY HALO TO UNLOCK ARMOR AND EMBLEMS NOT FOR ADRENALINE RUSHING INTENSE NAIL BITING COMPETITION. Oh and what the hell is with the Call of Halo loudouts? No weapons drop? GTFO! Newsflash 343 Halo is supposed to be hard. It's appeal is the learning curve is huge vs kiddy games like COD if we want to own noobs and 8 year olds we could play one of like 8 COD titles...no we picked GODS GIFT TO GAMING HALO. UNTIL NOW ALL OF THE PREVIOUS TITLES AT LEAST BROUGHT THE HEAT. THIS GAME IS LIKE A MOVIE SERIES PUMPING OUT A BUNCH OF RATED R MOVIES AND THEN GOING PG, NOT EVEN PG-13. HELL MAYBE EVEN G. AM I MAD? YES, I AM PISSED OFF. THIS WAS MY THING, MY EXCAPE, MY PRO SPORTS OF MY LIFE AND YOU RUINED IT FOR 12 YEARS OLD. THANKS A LOT.
