Melee is no longer overly powerful. This results in much more thought about when to make the attack, but also leaves you vunerable for someone else joining the attack.

 

I get many, many more melee kills in Reach. I love sprinting up and melee attacking. Especially with a sword.

Out of my last lone wolf match, 14 of my 25 kills were melee.


Yeah I know right, I love sprinting around and using the sword and bone hammer its awsome and skillful, i think people are even going has far as to use the word tactical.

HomcidaIpandas Tips and Tricks

First off I would Like to say Halo Reach is the Best Halo Ever I dont know why we are in Beta Phase when everything in this game is Perfect and Feel like Halo this is game need to go retail ASAP

I LOVE YOU BUNGIE!

Know your classes people! Does anyone jump out of buidling on mw2 without commando pro...I dont think so. That cause they know there class and its strengths and weakness.

1] Stalker- this class makes you have active camo. People might ask what is active camo? Actiive camo is the item in Halo 3 that made players

going invisible, was usally placed in the center of the map and  people would have to fight over it. But dont worry in Halo Reach  you wont have

to get your hands dirty to obtain it. Stalker makes you nearly complety invisible this is great for hiding in conerers and makeing your way

around the map fairly easy, obtianing all the weapons you need. Stalker also scrambles your 25m radar and your enemys 25m radar, this buy

some is considered a weakness by giving you away, but can be a strength also. The real main weakness to this class is when you go invisible

you cant hear, this puts you at a huge disadvantage cause Halo has always been about hearing footstep etc. The things you can do with this

class is amazing..espicallly in combnation with other classes or a team of stalkers the strats are endless.

2] Scount is your basic sprint you see in many FPS made in the past few years. This as posted before is excellent in conjuction with

bonehammer and the sword. Also its great for jumping super far just hold LB and start running then jump and you will feel like your walking on

the moon and you jump huge distances and in Mid air it almost feel like slowmotion. This is an excellent class and should have been in halo from

the beginning.

3] Jetpack-this is amazing if you every wanted to feel like bobo fett or even jenga fett from the starwars series. This is amazing class, I used to

hate trying to do hard jumps in previous halo, if you were like me this is awsome. You can now fly to your destination , now everyone  

can ambush there enemys from unexpected places. The weakness to this class is that you are an easy target to hit when you are in the air the

last thing you want is to get shot at by the amazly fast 5 shot dmr

4] Amor Block-this has to be my favorite perk, I much like everyone else hated when some skillful player stuck me in Halo 3, now I can hit LB and

my suit will absorb the damage. If your getting beat 1v1, and you have no choice use it, cause you have ten secounds for one of your

teammates to show up and kill him. Also if you have friends you can both use this and basically do rotations, keeping each other alive. Though I

would recommend all going stalker, cause its easyiar to achieve victory. Also can be used to block Rockets and Frags among other things.

Know your weapons

Beam Rifle- this has to be my favorite change from previous halo...I hated when I had to zoom in and actually aim this gun. My heart really goes

out to bungie by making this gun have a constant beam to overheat. This gun is great just put the circle over the enemy and hold the trigger

down. No scoping with this gun is also great and now everyone can do it, making the game more fair and tactcal. This gun reminds me of the

hammer of dawn from gears of war 1, everyone loved the hammer and was extremely happy it went to gears of war 2. special thanks to cliffy

DMR- people may complain about the clip size but its the same amount of trigger pulls as the br. This is gun is the replacement to the br and

does want the br couldnt do. The br just shoot way to fast for me and I am glad they change it to a more slower pace rifle and decreased the

damage so it take 5 hits. Warning: you may grow a 5oclock shadow when shooting this gun.

Other guns feel about the same but I am to lazy to tell you--they have one gun that shoots plasma grenades that home into there targets so

if you never got a killtacular before now is your chance but they called it something else when I did it, but anways any one can now get triple or more kills with ease...which makes the game more tactile and skillful

.PS dont forget to grab a Heath Pack when your low on life
