Infection, Swat, Snipers... the bane of reach.

Thankfully, they will all have their own playlists soon (or so I read from the bungie weekly update).

I enjoy swat but T. Slayer DMR got old the first night i played online. quite frankly, I dont enjoy the majority of rumble pit and choose to rather stay on Big Team or Arena.

Meh, the DMR isn't bad. I quite like it.

I also quite like Infection, but hate SWAT and Snipers. Good job I rarely see those anymore.

Its boring, was playing asylum and the entire match was people taking shots at each other from across the map, pretty much it plays just like swat except you have shields

There are other game types.
They're on other playlists.

Go play Invasion. It's better than every other game type on Reach.
That's not an opinion, that's a fact.

I think that the problem of Reach are the Forge world maps. Hemorage is camping fest, asylum is climb on roof fest, pinacle is camp and spawn kill fest and cage is spawnkill fest (seriously I got an overkill because 4 dudes spawned infront of me in swat. not cool). The biggest problems with these maps show up in gametypes with instakilling weapons (snipers, swat).

On gametypes; DMRs is boring, but I can take a match or 2 of it. Pro is worse, since it removes everything fun from the game and makes it pro. And people want to think they are pro. So they vote pro.

On people in general: STOP QUITTING! One quitting person easily ruins a team game, making it instantly slower and unbalanced. I'd understand if one dude quit every now and then, but since I haven't seen a single match today without at least one dude quiting, I'm convinced that there is some serious problem with people.

Yes, because we PS3 owners don't have Demon's Souls, God of War, the upcoming SotC Ico bundle, Little Big Planet, Uncharted, Killzone, Heavy Rain, inFamous, FFXIII Versus, MGS4, Resistance, Ratchet and Clank, PS1 classics, and free online. We should be real envious of the 360.

Although we 360 owners have Gears of War, Halo, Psychonauts (even if Raz turns blue) and other great Xbox titles, Alan Wake, Mass Effect, Dead Rising 1, Fable, Left 4 Dead (though these last 2 do come on the PC as well), Crackdown, Tales of Vesperia, and a larger online community.

Point is, STFHU about the console wars. You're all wrong. PC gamers, if you jump into this shit as well, the same applies for you. You're all damn gamers each with their own preference. If someone is having fun on their platform, then don't be a jackass and jump in to stop it by trying to assert your own belief on the person. That is called "Pulling a Jack Thompson."

OP: This isn't going to stop people at all. Everyone seems to love Team SWAT way too much. Sure it makes the game the exact opposite of why Halo's shields exist online, but you can't do anything about it. My only suggestion is to pick large team slayer as atleast if it ends up Team Swat the game doesn't end so quick.

I believe that this would be better posted on the Reach forums at Bungie.net instead of here. You know, in a place where every member plays the game?

Alright. I'll stop playing something I like just because you don't like it. Oh wait... No. I won't.

Sorry dude, it doesn't work like that. Play invasion, or Rumble Pit, or Big Team Battle. Besides, DMR isn't all that common in my experience. Its always Swat. When they gave that its own playlist, I jumped for joy, because I never have to play it again.

I've only played Slayer DMR once, and I only voted for that because some guy was whining about how he didn't want it in the mic. :) I usually play Invasion or Firefight, or Multi Team, and in Multi Team it's all about dat Rocket Race.

ROCKET RACE FOR LIFE!!!
Can you explain to me whats fun about rocket race? I'm serious. I hate it more than other type but it keeps getting picked. Maybe I don't know how to do it right. I just don't get it. Multiteam used to be my fav, until they brought in rocket race.

problem is that the DMR is possibly the best weapon in the game so everyone wants to use them.

Reach needs one or two complety new game type ideas to keep it from going stale in my opinion.

Personally I dont use the guns,instead I stealth myself in a place I know the other team will go through and pick them off with assassinations.

Though I do kinda enjoy infection.
however I don't understand why the zombies are slightly tougher in Safe havens (need two shotgun rounds to ill a zombie while in infection they need just one).

Indeed. I'm only good with a DMR if I also have a Jetpack, so those damn Pro gametypes screw with me. Pro is just SWAT with shields anyway. No one likes SWAT except people who secretly want to be playing MW2.

Really? I found it to be incredibly dull.

But yeah, I can't stand SWAT, DMR, snipers, etc. Which is probably why I don't think Reach is that great.

this. team slayer DMR's is a jump for joy compared to swat

and no offense, but some maps are highly disproportional running around with the shitty machine gun, so starting with the dmr instead actually makes firefights longer than 20 feet away worth shooting for.

I agree with what was said earlier about the Forgeworld maps. I love Pinnacle, it's the best of the lot, but the rest really aren't that great. Especially The Cage. Who the fuck decides Team Snipers on THERE of all places is good?

IMO, I think the VAST majority of maps in Reach are pretty shit, especially compared to the Halo 3 maps which I loved to bits. I don't mind the occasional Team Snipers and Team DMRs, but for the most part I'll stick to games of 3 Plot, Territories, Stockpile and Slayer.

Oh, almost forgot: Bungie, Invasion would kick ass if there were more than two frikkin' maps for it.

Custom Games is where all the real fun is.

EDIT: The new voting system is just pretty broke in general. I prefered the old way were it was "Here's your map. You either like it, or don't and then veto it and risk getting a worse map and a worse gametype". With this amount of choice it'll always be the same gametypes being picked. For example, you go into a Firefight Lobby; people only pick Rocketfight and Sniperfight.

I know what you mean, I get really sick of starting out with DMRs. If you want to start out with an assault rifle, the only recommendation I can make to you is team objective, although in that playlist your teammates may as well be retarded.
