Ask Me Anything: Halo: Reach

I cringed everytime Drew walked towards the Blue flag point. :(

WANT.

Interesting. I like the direction with the revamp. Lets see where Bungie takes this.

" Ugh, only reason I'm watching this is for the quest.  "

" @JazzMaverick: Modern Warfare 2 is a game of luck... to an extent at least. When all it takes to kill someone is a single squeeze of the trigger, it becomes a simple game of 'hope you spot him before he spots you.' Halo's structure allows for more intense one-on-one encounters that also add depth to the larger battlefield. Do you chase after the guy who's shields you just depleted, or do you refocus your attention on somebody who's after your flag? It's things like that, that to me makes Halo a more active experience. "

Second time I'm watching this :-(

Halo to me always looks like a slower Unreal Tournament with low gravity mutator

Why was no one using the Marksman rifle? I wanted to see it but they just kept spamming AR's.

22:00 Epic double kill by Drewbert.

I'm with you on that Dune reference Vinny.

At 8 minutes and 3o seconds into the video Brad and/or drew picks up the pistol that will make me return to Halo after almost six years.  Im coming home baby. 

As soon as the beta comes out, its Reach 24/7. I guess ODST was a worthwhile purchase after all.....

Haven't played Halo since the second game, and even then I never got into the multiplayer other than times when I'd hang out with friends. This looks like the first Halo game I might actually buy.

great, i get to "watch" this a second time. since quest wasn't active when i actually watched it.

I was expecting more of the same with minor changes but they really mixed it up the multiplayer this time it looks like.

Really excited for this game.

I'm sold.

I'm sort of glad this quest forced me to rewatch all those videos.  I had no interest whatsoever in Halo: Reach, but now I'm actually pretty excited about Halo, again.  My ex-girlfriend still has my copy of Halo 3... I need to get that shit back.

Oh man, I HAVE to get into this beta!(But I'm not willing to pay for ODST considering I've already played the campaign and enough firefight to never want to play it again)

I am very, very, very keen for the final game to be in my 360.
 
And was that a Glengary Glen Ross reference, Vinny?

^ you dirty fiend you

So awesome.

Pardon my ignorance regarding Reach, but will there be any sort of single player mode in this game?

AWESOME.. grenade launcher, DMR, needler rifle...

" Oh man, I HAVE to get into this beta!(But I'm not willing to pay for ODST considering I've already played the campaign and enough firefight to never want to play it again) "

Seems like Drew was just playing that mode completely wrong.

Oh great. Here I am. Watching this AGAIN because the quest wasn't posted early enough. What am I doing...

I feel like the people on the ER who yell at them for playing wrong, but really? In that flag capping thing he could have scored several times, but ran around with the flag instead, giving it to the enemies. When the dude was sniping the generator, he waited way to long to pull out his pistol and try to shoot them. 
edit- He also did not care about the new bloom- kept shooting his pistol fast as hell even though it wasn't accurate anymore. 
edit- It means everything for cR in terms of Singleplayer, co-op, multiplayer, etc. YOu can't get cR though custom games. 
double edit- DMR isn't more powerful- per shot/burst it's a 5 shot kill compared to the BR's 4 shot. It may fire faster though.

This was at an event, they're not going to be perfect.

Oh look, it's Halo......laaame.

This is going to be INSANE!!!!!!

" Oh look, it's Halo......laaame. "

Finally, something that might take me away from MW2

Watching the video for a game I don't care about for quests...
 
Now I know what points whores feel like

 haha!
 
"you could also set it to search for people who speak italian... Jeff."
 
great callback. 

I love the increased movement speed. The matches seem way more fast paced than previous games.

Looks pretty good but...what's with the announcer? =(
 
P.S. Focus Rifle looks awesome

Thanks Brad, 
Awesome vid. Can't wait for the BETA to start!

I don't really care for Halo, but this is actually looking pretty sweet. Might be a purchase for me.

YAY GIANT BOMB IS ON WAYPOINT AGAIN WITH THIS VIDEO!
 
Not sure but I think it is drasically cut to about 10 minutes on Waypoint and it sounds as if they done a second voice over recording to fit with the new amount of footage. (Same footage, different amount.)

Halo:CE is the greatest, Reach Plz dont dissapoint....

This looks fantastic. I'm very much in on this when the Beta hits.

I will not let this beta ruin my GCSEs.  I will not let this beta ruin my GCSEs.  I will not let this beta ruin my GCSEs. 
 
... 
 
 Fudge it, I'm blatantly going to be playing this in all my spare time during study leave :P

This is like the 5th time I'm watching this in its entirety.  Hopefully this one works this time.
