I hope they open up the campaign levels to be similar to Halo 2- example being outskirts and the open-ended levels allowing you to get out of the maps and explore the level in different ways. I missed that most in Halo 3.

I think it's going to be great and from what I've heard it's going to be a lot more challenging than the other halo's.

Jumping straight into multiplayer with my flaming helmet.

I can still play Halo 1 on PC on some of the middle missions, and still go... "Wow, that's cool."

And it's almost 10 years old.

For Reach, I recall Bungie saying that they had like 150+ mission ideas. They then brought it down to like 20 crazy ideas and incorporated a story into them (source). So I would say gameplay is a higher priority than the story. At least we can hope that it's better than Halo 3's campaign.

What I'm very excited about is that for the first time ever, enemies will scale in accordance to how many people are playing the campaign. So if you go in with 4 people, the enemies will be more aware, tough, and probably greater in quantity.

So far everything sounds pretty amazing. The only thing left to do is play it to see if it really is.

Its looking like its going to be sick man.

Reading this thread a few hours ago made me hop on H:CE and play campaign for about 40 minutes. There's something about the scale of Halo: CE that is just mind blowing, even though it's like what, 9 years old?

As far as Reach goes, I really hope Bungie focused more on the story this time around. And I really, really.... really hope the game isn't too short.

One of the most awesome feelings I've ever had with the halo series, was evading a hunter and 1 shotting in the back with the pistol, and when I get to play that 1 mission where you have like 300 shots in the sniper and it's nighttime and you use nightvision when sniping in h1. I've played that level so many f.cking times being all unneccessarily cautious, trying to kill everyone in the middle without being spotted once and sh.t

no campaign beats h1

beaten it countless times and i STILL get lost in the covenant ship after the level with nightvision 300 bullets. shit rules

I liked Halo 3 campaign but H1's was the best

You can't always trust what Bungie says.

Remember during H3s production in one of the updates that fat ass Luke Smith said that one of the levels contained the most amount of enemies on screen at once in any halo game?

Ya, it was 3 dozen drones flying around.

You have to remember that 99% of the people making this game weren't apart of H1/H2. And that is not reassuring.

My predictions:

Campaign: Halo 1> Halo Reach> Halo 2/Halo 3> ODST
Multiplayer: Halo 2> Halo 1/Halo Reach> Halo 3> ODST

Bottom Line:

-Halo 3 and ODST suck
-Halo 2 and Halo 1 are hard to beat
-Halo Reach is unpredictable, but better that Halo 3 and ODST




I personally didn't mind the halo 2 campaign. Halo 3's was good, but not as good as CE and 2... IMHO
