Halo: Reach Beta Thread

I just played my first full game...

HOLY SHIT, I can't believe people are complaining about this game so much.
Actually, I'm surprised people aren't complaining more. I expected a meltdown. I'm not complaining, though. Good job Bungie!
 
Are the new playlists up?

EDIT: PC Load Letter? What the fuck does that mean?
 
Holy god damn, I was just about to take off work early today to play some fresh noobs and get my rating up and KDR up a bit...

guess I'll stay here instead seeing as Reach is down. XD Honestly I'd be surprised if Bugnie's servers were actually prepared for this load and didn't go down.
 
I'm at 18% now. Got through the first 10 pretty quickly but it's slowed to a crawl now.

Still better than Halo 3's beta launch. At least there hasn't been any Rick Rolling that I've seen this time around. :lol

Obviously you didn't take part in the Halo 3 beta then. The thing didn't even work on the first day... I don't think you understand all the connection shit it has to begin going through when 80,000 new people all log on at once for the very first time.

I said in terms of halo 3 its nothign i didnt mention the halo 3 beta which i did play, halo 3 regualrly had 1million concurrent

Anyway it depends how muc resource they have allocated

That has nothing to do with this though lol. Betas will be betas.

anyone else feel like the Grenades look wayyyy too big? They look like big fat balls as opposed to grenades.

Their explosion radiuses are waaaaaaaaaay too big.

You start the game with 2 goddamn mini nukes.
 
It's full of newbies online, it's unbelievable the way they don't even know they should pick up the flag to win. (and I'm talking about 1 flag which is not a confusing mode at all)
 
I can't imagine anyone playing Reach and complaining about the Grenades and general feel were fans of Halo 1. AIMING SKILL IS BACK TO HALO. The fucking AR feels PERFECT at mid-range and can actually pester individuals beyond that. It's BETTER than the Halo 1 AR. The game so far feels TRULY versatile.

Only problem is that everyone can use a tiny boost in movement speed.

HOLY SHIT, I can't believe how good this game feels*


note*

Game looks like absolute ass though

Mah bad. Got Beta on the brain. :lol

ODST sold over 4 million copies, so I thought the servers would be ready to get rocked. Surprised they're creaking with 100k on.
