i havent played halo in quite a while. Not since halo 3 was still pretty new. But i got reach today and have played 15 mp games. Its decently fun but it feels so slow paced. I seem to remember intense battles in halo 3 where on here it seems to be closer to Call of duty style. In fact the swat game mode feels almost exactly like call of duty. I bought a halo game to play halo. Not COD. 
 
Does anyone else feel even the slightest bit like this or am i crazy?

Err...I thought the Call of Duty games are more fast paced than Halo?  Maybe I'm in Bizarro world, I dunno...

I didn't get the connection.

Go play Quake for a couple of hours and then pop in Reach. Shit will seem slower than a turn based RPG. Thats paused.

COD is not slow-paced. you are crazy. COD is a twitch shooter where the outcome of the engagement is normally who has the faster reflexes or who saw who first. 
Halo has always been a slower paced game where you have to time your shots and be steady the whole time.

its proly from COD.  I remember switching back to Halo3 a while back and its way slower than COD.  Just need to get used to it.  Once u try COD again you will think COD is fast paced.

Implying halo used to be faster.    "In fact the swat game mode feels almost exactly like call of duty."Implying SWAT gametype is faster than Reach, as is COD.    "I bought a halo game to play halo. Not COD."So don't play SWAT? "

Because they haven't changed the gameplay since the first xbox.

It's a moderate speed game, I think it feels fast for a Halo game too.
 
It's not gonna be anywhere near Quake speed but it's faster than Gears...
