Fucking amazing game.
I hate most halo, but this game is the shit.
Fucking glad I get to play the Beta for having a Halo: ODST disc.

Really? I don't think I like it as much as Halo 3. Just a little too hokey and unbalanced right now for my tastes. I hate that they basically tripled the power of grenades so you can get killed by them from like 30 feet away. Also, I really miss the BR
and SvE is WAY unbalanced, the elites move faster, dodge better and start with better weapons

I played it split screen online with one of my friends that had it.
I thought it was kind of cool, but I just never got way into the whole Halo scene.

To me grenades seem weaker, also I hated Halo 3 with a passion.
I like the single shot BR, it owns faces. Along with the needler rifle.
I love the different load outs you can spawn with. Jump jets with a single shot rifle are great for countering enemies with jump jets. Sprint + anything close range is epic. Stealth is good for.... I guess pretty much just king of the hill IME. And the shield thing is epic for defending in capture the flag.
Also, I have grown to hate Invasion a lot. They should have AI units spawn to help you I think (make the battle more intense.)
The gun that shoots the tracking plasma grenades is pretty bad ass too. I just hope there are a lot, and I mean a lot, of other maps.

yeah but the problem with that is that you can't choose your ability after you have an awesome weapon. You have to choose sprint and hope you find a shotty, or choose the jetpack and hope you get a rocket launcher or something to help with the highground.

I pick my ability in relation to my opponents strategy (plus I memorize weapon spawn points within 2 or so games on that map so I know where to look for what).
Like if all of my enemies are using jet packs, I use the jet pack and find a single shot weapon (like the BR) and then just stay on the ground until I see an enemy fly like 20 feet in the air like a moron (because when you are that high EVERYONE has a line of sight on you).
If they are using a lot of stealth I go stealth, lots of sprinters I got jet pack, etc...
It's all about having predetermined strategies in your mind that you know you might use in game, and knowing where to find pieces to make that strategy work on every map.
The BR/Needler rifle/needler are the best weapons in my opinion, followed by pretty much everything else.
Grenade launcher takes some getting used to, but works great when you learn. Also, I hate the assault rifle, plasma rifle is epic.

I really love the pistol in Reach. With the scope in the pistol back. It almost feels like the first Halo all over again.

Yea, but a lot less damage than the Halo: Combat Evolved pistol.

Yeah, the Halo 1 pistol fucked bitches up HARD.
I never had an original xbox so I always played Halo 1 online where hackers would mod the game so the AR shot tank rounds at full auto fire rates. Holy fuck that game was
