[@pickleadaykeepsthedoctoraway]

Halo 3 was great except for the fact that level 50 playlists, especially MLG, contained many players who would force host. Along with forcing host, this allowed them to DDoS. Host was godly, not quite as bad as Halo 2, but still enough to make it easy to get to level 50 if you got host most of the time. Oh and there were a couple of players (God/AK47 (same person)) could steal any account due to MS' terrible security. Usually it is the player's fault for getting their account stolen, in this case however there was nothing you could do. A new Xbox, new connection, separate IP, pseudonym registered, new email only for that xbox 360. Everything you could imagine was tried, except the very same people kept stealing accounts. Until a major Xbox 360 advertising account got hacked by one of them. You may say that isn't the game, but it's part of the experience. Going on in 50 MLG and seeing players with 3 letter names... It was usually better to just quit immediately instead of experiencing their potent nerd rage. They actually had power when they said "your account is mine," though the 5 year old saying that was full of shit.

[@CameraPunk5049]

@@douglas_fir The gunplay has also flaws on Reach (specially the sniper rifle and the hit reg). The freaking equipment is like a power up, everyone can pick it on the map and you can use it in the moment you think it's more convenient (that makes for a more competitive and tactical gameplay, not to mention a more balanced one). Meanwhile groundbreaking armour abilities like: -Jetpack (that makes vertical gameplay an advantage on maps like sword base unbalanced, not to mention people used It to camp outside the map, which is sure as hell a cheap tactic). -Active camo (Combined with a long range weapon and you can campo with an sniper rifle and relocate, whenever you like because people is not going to spot you). And Armour lock (at launch, since you could spam the hit and block combo). When 3 of your 7 armour abilities are broken. That's not a solid gameplay, the armour abilities were meant to be balanced and 2 of them are still not... Not to mention bad spawns on forge maps. (Especially for sniper maps).

[@douglas_fir]

@@CameraPunk5049 Literally everything you just mentioned can easily be worked around if you know what you're doing. Amor lock is literally only good against two things, nades' and incoming vehicles about to splatter you. If you try to use it in a gunfight you're guaranteeing your self a loss. Same with jet pack. It's great for traversing and hella fun, but your also a floating duck and easy target. And no you can't camp outside the map. You die if you do. Camouflage works best if you're far out of view if not, again it's not that hard to find them. Equipment there's absolutely no way to work around they're a literal get out of jail free card. You can't work around a shield regenerator or drainer or bubble shield. There's a reason they removed them from competitive playlists. Not to say armor abilities are suitable for MLG, but they're way more fun and tactical. They provide different play styles that can either be to your advantage or disadvantage if you know what you're doing and vise versa.

Honestly Halo 5 is not bad, the Campaign was horrific, the armor customization is shit, and the armor designs overall are bad, and so is it's user interface, the one thing that bugged me the most was the design of the armor, unlike Reach. Or literally any other halo game ever, (except for 4) the armor designs don't hold that sense of realism. In the previous games, the armor (or helmets rather) looked like something our real life military, could create. And use. Thats what i always loved about reach. But H5's multiplayer is actually good.

Still, all of this is completely invalid when you talk about having game night with the boys, just some pizza, some Halo 3 and there you go, some of the best memories of your young life.

i somewhat agree. the halo CE pistol of doom was a much more serious issue than he made it seem. and the halo 2 BR was even worse. there are maps where the BR is generally better to have on hand than power weapons. (for this reason, when he was talking about how the BR was made to be projectile-based rather than hit-scan-based in halo 3, i was waiting for him to point out how utterly necessary the change was given how the BR _dominated_ halo 2 multiplayer) that being said, i mostly agree'd with his final ranking. 3 is clearly the best 1 gets a comfortable second place, there's a reason the game still has such a strong following on PC with its own modding community 2 & Reach are next for me. reach was more polished, halo 2 was truer to the series, but both had a couple serious sticking points when it comes to game balance. (i can't say i really care which is deemed better than the other, whatever the reasons cited, i expect it'll be an apples to oranges comparison) then there's 5, and i don't think it's particularly close to competing with any of the above. 4 is straight trash.

[@nonya_bidness]

@Kekela lmao, there's absolutely a problem with it. if the gun is SO good that it makes power weapons less desirable, then map-control becomes less important. beyond that, if other common weapons are completely eclipsed by one OP gun that you spawn with, then you might as well delete the other common guns from the game. don't waste time adding smg/assault rifle spawns to the map. nobody with a brain wants them. further, the player doesn't need to ask themselves "which gun should i use for this particular situation?". the answer is almost always going to be the same. _making the game simpler, and thus _*_easier_*_ to play_ after all, it means i don't need to 'get gud' with 7 different weapons, each with their own quirks and strategies. all i need to do is 'get gud' with exactly one gun and i've mastered 90% of the game's multiplayer. i could go on, of course, but this is already a wall of text.

[@darknightspider7495]

Way to be disingenuous. CE's pistol was OP, but you could still outplay with other power weapons (not to mention that every player had it when they spawned). This isn't unique to CE, either. The Battle Rifle in 2 and 3, as well as the DMR in Reach, were always really powerful weapons in most situations. However, the Boltshot and precision weapons just nullified every other choice and were simply too rampant for the loadout design philosophy of Halo 4. Experimentation was not encouraged because of them. The Boltshot was basically a pocket shotgun and it fucked over weapons like the Assault Rifle and Suppressor in situations where they were supposed to be shine (and it's NOT a power weapon). Secondaries like the magnum and plasma pistol were good, but again because of the precision weapons, those secondaries were fucked as well. A Carbine and a Boltshot could cover your ass in every situation if other players weren't using the same thing. In turn, Halo 4's terrible balancing manages to be a way bigger problem than CE's simply because it screws with the core philosophy of the game, being that you can choose to load out with anything. Halo 4's maps having random weapon placement also screwed it up its final score entirely. CE had a broken-ass pistol, but it was still fun and the maps and game modes were still competently designed despite that. Halo 4 is just bad on a fundamental level of game design.

If you're gonna use the 3 brother analogy, it could easily viewed the other way. 3 is the youngest brother as it's most concerned with overall fun, creativity, and accessibility (custom games are the best here, plus theater and forge are a thing). 2 is the middle child, as it's known to have been forgotten by its parents (Bungie burdened it with many expectations, only to see it become something different). And very different it was, with new vehicles, weapons, dual wielding, and the overall sentiment of not giving a fuck just like a middle child should. CE is the oldest child, the one concerned with responsibility, agency, skill, and punishment for the friends of its younger brothers (CE has been cited as being easily the most skill dependent Halo by players such as Ogre2 and Walshy). The oldest brother is not one to be fucked and is the one that takes the most time to understand. But once it's understood, it becomes a good friend.

Personally, I think 3, however, there is something to be said for Reach's Firefight

[@beatlecristian]

Firefight is so much fun.

[@jockeyfield1954]

what is firefight? I’m still new to halo reach and don’t know any of the game modes, pls explain

[@sSOLDIERrr]

I actually agree with 95% of what he says on this list, and where he ranked the games at the end. I think he didn't explain the importance of Theater mode though. If another player kicked your butt, you could go into Theater and watch him to find out what he did to learn the moves/strategy yourself. So you'd get better at the multiplayer immediately. Also if you did something AWESOME, you could Share the video with your friends or watch it again yourself.

Halo reach was so much fun so many memories. 2 &3 were great and I liked 4 for what it was

[@QuantumLeapCosplay]

I personally played Reach more than any of the other games, and as good as all the games before Reach are, Reach is still my personal favorite. Funny enough, Armor Lock doesn't bother me that much, even though I almost never used it. I played my own forge maps so many times with my friends, including a Territories map I called "Carrier Control". My friends and their friends loved it so much. I put Banshees everywhere, and Lord knows how OP Banshees are in Reach, but having so many made it so fun xD Halo 4's campaign is okay... On Normal difficulty. But the multiplayer? An absolute joke. I couldn't even figure out how to navigate the UI! Halo 5 is too frustrating for me especially now that I'm a PC gamer and the camera panning of a controller is something I can't really get used to again and to me, is far inferior to keyboard and mouse. And removing splitscreen is absolutely unacceptable.

[@jackmoriarty9861]

Quantum Leap Cosplay armor lock was really a non issue for me too, just an element to adapt to. Rarely did anyone use it (aside from vehicle destruction) in a way that was effective, it seemed to be used as a last resort in fire fights.

[@liamfairbanks4861]

As a dedicated halo fan, I can easily say that halo: CE is my 1st favorite. There is nothing better than getting your friends together on a weekend to play a lan game until we could barely keep our eyes open. My 2nd favorite would be halo 3, for all the same reasons. Then halo odst. Then halo 2. Then halo infinite. I haven't played 4, 5, or reach.

[@crepesrgud4041]

Not gonna lie I've always loved Reach but you brought up some really good points. It's not going to change my thoughts but I respect your opinion. ☺☺

[@JackieFuckingChan]

I love Reach too. The equipment like the jetback, sprint, etc was so damn fun. Armor lock sucked, but was manageable once you figured how long it took. You could have a little plasma waiting for them or assinate them from behind. Cheap kills for a cheap power up.

[@LOOMAN-gn1od]

I like reach to bc it was my first halo game so I really enjoyed it but FUCK amor lock

[@gebboh]

If you played the ranked modes all the bullshit was disabled. And i don't see reticle bloom as a negative. you really had to have a rithme while firing your shots. The best moments where when you start firing at an enemy at the same time with your friend, having his shields down in 2 shots and then executing them with a well placed headshot. The had the most fun i've ever had in my gaming life playing was reach ranked doubles with my best friend.

[@BeardyGuitarCovers]

Halo 3 was the pinnacle. So many great memories from it, but the one that has always stuck with me is on Guardian, playing custom games with friends, grabbed a sniper rifle, took bottom lift up and scoped in to snipe my friend before landing. I have been chasing the feeling that Halo 3 gave me ever since, and I've never recaptured it.

[@thegrandduke8968]

I like Halo Reach personally because I didn't care about being competitive back in the day and I liked the vehicles, btb, and all that Fuck though Halo Reach should've had more space combat If I said all time best for the community it was probably halo 2 if we had to reuse a Halo and put new content into it and call it Halo 6 I think halo 2 would be tge best choice. it's good all around.
