| Takes forever to get in a game, it's very laggy. And it's funny cause even though I'm lagging like all hell I still get a positive Kill/Death Ratio. | |

They are better than the recent alpha build videos but the environmental-texture quality could be improved. Weapon models look amazing (as expected), and the game has less jaggies than Halo 3 (but still is kind of a jagfest). The beta-build is far better than I expected though, by the time Halo Reach goes gold they might add more AA and replace some of the bad textures on the environments. Gameplay wise it's the best halo yet. It combines everything I loved about Halo 1, 2 and 3. And got rid of everything I hated about them as well (the BR, dual-weilding, etc) | |

| It's good but not the best Halo at all. Dual wielding was a good option and you can't jump as high as the other titles. Other than that it feels about the same but those missing parts are noticeable. i'd say Halo 3 is better but i expected that since i see Reach as more of a spinoff than a real halo game.[no master chief,etc] | |

| I hate the ghosting effect. Small detail, but it's very irritating. | |

I hated dual weilding. I guess it's opinionated. You can't jump as high because they want you to use the jetpacks. And considering that this is the first DAY of the beta I can expect some changes and fixes down-the-line. I gotta admit, I don't like the new button layout for meleeing. But I LOVE assassinating. | |

Wouldn't mind being able to duel wield though. Master Chief learnt to dual wield guns in Halo 2... So they have to change halo history for that | |

| I think both Halo 3 and reach are different enough for fans to play both.if you want more different matches and gameplay then play reach if you want more classic feel and dual wielding lay Halo 3. I sure will be playing both. | |

Oh yea and regular spartans an sprint but Master Chief can't? These are all plot-holes. Dual Wielding was taken out for the armour ability function. It's not like alot of people used dual-weilding in Halo 3. | |

I switched the layout to Halo 3-style in Reach. The new layout is just ODD, especially the new melee button. | |

These are all plot-holes. Dual Wielding was taken out for the armour ability function. It's not like alot of people used dual-weilding in Halo 3. The look of the Assault Rifle can change in the future, but whether it looks shitty is your opinion. Elites didn't randomly get smaller, Master Chief is a lot larger than the Spartans found in Halo Reach and the Elites just look bigger from Noble 6's view. Regular Spartan's can sprint because the armor ability program was an ongoing test on the planet Reach. But then the covenant glassed the planet and I guess that information was destroyed along with amour abilities. There are no plot-holes. | |

| After waiting a day and having to download it twice, I had an issue with a corrupt HD and had to reformat, I finally got to play the beta. It was glorious. I love the new matchmaking. It lets me play with non-chatty, people who just want to have fun, and who are about my same skill level. It's everything I've ever wanted in Halo multiplayer.
Oh and it looks and plays great. I love sprint. Jet Packs are cool, but I think they need to get off the ground a little faster. I barely tried armor lock, but it's a cool idea and I never got around to invisibility, maybe later.
Overall I'm very impressed.
BTW, I'd like to go online with just my brother to tool around on the maps without playing a match. If you know how to set that up tell me, all I could find was regular matchmaking. I haven't tried split screen, does that work or is the beta online only? | |
