almost everyone so far thinks its atleast as good as Halo 3, I hope its a little different from it so I hopefully like it as much

I personally think it's great fun, as I expected it to be but nothing revolutionary though the loadout idea is cool. Technically speaking a little disappointed though I'm sure it will improve in 6 months time and the campaign will look a lot better than MP levels.

The great thing about Reach is that it caters to the noobs with stuff like jet packs,  the usual noob weapons, and the experience credits thing where you can rank up to the top rank without having any skill whatsoever. and it caters to the hardcore and pros because of stuff like the the reticule degradation, and the Arena which truly marks what your skill is.

From the games I have played I see it takes so much skill to be really good with weapons like DMR

And so far I haven't had to many problems with kids sprinting and using the hammer or shotgun, nor have a seen too many people camping with invise.  

In fact there were more noobs that pissed me off in Halo 3 then in this game (AR rushing with their modded controllers, or the whole opposing team hiding around corners with shotguns, hammers, maulers, and rockets)

You will see when the game goes retail and the high rank players take the lead and all go invis...its going to be epic...to bad I will be missing out and playing sc2

Anyone that think I am the only one who dislikes beta is wrong...go read bungie forums lol they are filled with people like me who like the graphic improvement but hate the classes. The game is fun, but i cant take this game competivly serious in anyway with the AA suits.

There will always be douchebags that do stuff like that no matter what the game, Halo 3 had problems like that.  You just gotta live with it because games like that are usually few and far between.

Ive only played around 10 games so far but i already think its the best halo multiplayer yet, and i usually enjoy halo for the singleplayer. Im also really liking the loadouts, i usually use scout but i think there all balanced well. I just cant wait to play a game of invasion on boneyard, it looks so fun from the footage ive seen.
