Forums - Microsoft - Is Halo Reach looking like it'll have the best campaign since Halo 1?

THe Fall of Reach is one of the most epic battle in the Halo saga.
It sures is a good background to beat CE campaign.



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

i liked Halo 1's campaign because it was something new like when i first saw the halo i was "wow" and when i first did the other stuff.
but Halo 2's campaign was more fun with the Covenant missions too.

i think Halo Reach will be like ODST.

Could you explain that? Like ODST in what way?

the Team based setting, in the first you are only one person in a huge galaxy , in Reach you have alot of people each with their own "Class"

Halo remains the best SP Campaign so far. I know some prefer 2 or 3 but the majority view is clearly for CE.

Reach looks promising. Too early to tell but I think it looks good to be at least the second best as I think it will be better than the SP in 2 and 3. If it trumps CE then it'll be very good indeed.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

am i the only one who thought ODST's campaign was the best XD. Anyway while I hope its amazing, I won't be greatly dissapointed if its not since I'm buying it for the online mainly.



Yeah, I'm hoping it takes more cues from the first Halo than the later ones. The first Halo gave you a ton of options, and the levels were quite expansive. Halo 2 felt much more like a corridor shooter than the first Halo, and I don't know about Halo 3 because all the campaign impressions I read turned me away from buying a 360 for it.


But yeah, Halo 2's campaign was way too straightforward, I can't recall any levels that were similar to Halo, Assault on the Control Room, The Truth and Reconciliation or The Silent Cartographer. I could play those levels over and over again, and every time it would feel different because I could use different strategies every time.


I've said it before and I'll say it again, if Reach's campaign is similar to the first game's, I will probably buy a 360 (or at least the next Xbox) for it.

Halo CE IMO is the best campaign halo 2 was a big let down halo 3 was an improvement and odst was a great improvement making it 2nd only to CE. Now if it goes this route then halo reach should be as fun as halo CE or better.



 

 

Hopefully it does.



Well, I've only completely the campaign for Halo:CE and not the other three games. I've played some of the campaign for Halo 2 and 3 but I never had the attention spand to finish them. I think I was more into the multiplayer online with the third one to finish it. Anyways, I think I need to play through and complete them before I can say which one is more fun for me. On that note, I hope that Reach will have an appealing campaign that most will enjoy.



They were all good campaigns. Unlike too many of Halo's competitors. I would guess CE will be replaced for overall campaign quality from what I've seen. No one in Reach will replace the MC.
