Halo: Reach Beta Thread

Woah, my head assplode about Activision. But after the initial shock, it kinda makes sense business-wise.

In other news, today will be the longest day of work EVER. But it will be a spectacular weekend. :D

Pi Rutsu!
 
I'm at work and I hitup xbox.com to check out my friend's list. So far I see: cocop, merguson, vhfive, blood, voltron, ghaleon, Dom, and oozer on the Reach beta. Anyone else I'm missing?
 
Another huge map with all AR starts and tons of nade spam. Deja vu.

Can you juggle people in the air with the lightning gun? It looks straight out of Q3A.

Dani got in as well it seems
 
Somebody tell Tashi about the return of health packs because he never picks them up when he has near zero health, and he walks by them so often!

Be prepared for the fight man!

It would be an easy thing to forget, i did see him pick one up though.
 
Armor lock is absurd. "Whoop I'm getting shit on *curls up in invincible ball*" You should do 50% damage to the enemy when they're locked.

I don't mind the concept, but the pose is really silly.

*waits for head to pop out and shoots it*

Just time your grenades for when it runs out = Profit and/or Skulls.

Don't think so, got the sense they were going out in the evening/afternoon.
Believe, etc

It's definitely a love-hate relationship watching this stream. I'm not going to stop though, this is the best I got without a F&F code:lol

I've got it etched into my memory by now though, and luckily the changes to the shield benefit those that forget anyways...

I'm about to give up on the stream soon though, this maximum user crap on Justin.tv is making me refresh over and over just for it to cut out, so not only can I not play the beta yet, I can't even watch it properly yet either, ugh.
 
That indoor map they're playing now looks like a lot of fun. I also seem to be picking up some Halo 1 vibes from it, anyone else agree?

I think they said it was based on Boarding Action from Halo 1.
 
I'm actually more split on the game than I was expecting to be. The default controls are convoluted, and the gun play doesn't feel good - it doesn't feel like Halo to me at all.
 
Ok so there's also letters, voc, dani, tashi, spud. I don't have letters, dani, tashi on my FL can you all send me a FR? Jironmo
