I just read the weekly update. A lot of that stuff actually sounds fun, the inherent problem being on what maps. I've been meaning to pick up Reach again if not only for the "because all my friends play it" factor, but the new update might make it worth while.
Hog Potato in particular sounds fun. It seems like Bungie's is trying to go back to those wonky game types that made Halo...Halo.
Well fuck them... :/Quote:

Champ I do not know if you are right or not.
:( thnx anyway mayne
Hehe, I bet that made his day. It sure made mine seeing that :P
Does anyone else feel like friendly fire needs to be turned off? I've been betrayal booted twice today for explosive betrayals that killed at least two other enemies at the same time.
So for those of you who don't know, there's now a Reach demo available on XBL. Since I hadn't played Reach in a while, figured I'd try it out to refresh my memory. The demo includes Long Night of Solace (why that level?) as well as some generic Firefight and Slayer playlists. You play with other demo users, kind of like Halo Trial.
Unsurprisingly, all the things that made Reach such a mediocre multiplayer experience are still intact. Cross map DMR spam, double melee, sprint double melee, melee headshots, bad map designs, jetpacks, it's all there. Frankly I don't really see the purpose of releasing a demo at this point, anyone who was going to buy Reach has probably already bought it.
Since the beginning. Fuck friendly fire, Bungie's booting system is way too random and stupid anyway.Quote:
