Reach Has Toughest Halo Enemies Ever

[Dr Megadeth]

A.I. What bungie (slightly) revolutionised in 2001. The beta gave us a taste of what Bungie are re-inventing in their traditional multiplayer, which has to be on par with the standard . Same with Firefight with improving on the ODST formula.

sept 14....the day b4 my gf birthday. easy enough to remeber

Don't all games use that bullet point?

"Dynamically changing AI that gets smarter as you play!"

It's all bullshit, they will be the same absolutely moronic AI fucktards they've always been, they'll just soak up a few more bullets before dying.

What's more interesting in that article is the fact that the space combat mission we were shown demoed at E3 is the only one in the campaign and there is no space combat in multiplayer; pretty disappointing if you ask me, maybe Bungie will release a game mode in DLC for space combat.

I hope not... The only redeeming thing about playing online with friends was that it make Legendary a bit more doable.
Legendary by myself was stupid, one needle shot and MC was dead. ...

 

[Grey_Focks]

Sounds good to me. I can't wait for this game!

However, I will cry if I don't see the Flood.

Don't worry, I have tissues handy.

Seeing as how Halo 1 was the first time Humans encountered The Flood, and this takes place before 1, I would bet they aren't in it. In fact, I'm pretty sure they flat out said "No Flood", which works for me as I always hated those levels.

OT: Awesome. I want this game slightly more now, which really is saying something.

 

[LewsTherin]

Do they mean "better AI" actually harder or "jacked up healthbar and can headshot you from across the map" what I like to call Farcry 2 harder?

i dont know how true this is. but i have been told by a friend who is a reach fanatic that there will be a fire-fight mode and you can choose the enemy and what traits they have and the flood is one of the options

 

[ItsAChiaotzu]

Yeah, Borderlands did it first.

But still, I'm pumped for this game and I don't even have an Xbox.

 

[Sneaky Paladin]

It would be cool if you could invite like 9 other friends instead of just 4 and each enemy needed the combined power of 3 spartans to be taken down.

 

[destiaer]

This might make me enjoy Halo again...ODST was a big dissapointment, but if what they're saying is true, I have a new reason to enjoy the latest and final(?) game in the series.

 

[Elburzito]

How interesting, Halo:Reach is released on my brothers birthday, now I know what to get him...

OT: It piques my interest as well, its about time they released Campaign Co-Op

ok so gears of war should be called unreal of war

You do realise how many games use the Unreal Engine right?

On topic, this should make for a welcome change from the usual cooperative domination.

 

[Kuchinawa212]

Cant wait to play this game on legendary with my friends

Ooooooh that's going to be impossible! They'd probably have sniper teams trained on you from the get go and call in Hunters to drop in 4 feet in front of you. THEN all the elites are going to take cheap shots behind every scrap of cover.

So yeah, I got to get this game now and try it on legendary.

ya i do, that wasnt the point tho

 

[maddawg IAJI]

Nice to see them taking a page from Gearbox and Borderlands. I'm still looking forward to reach actually and I'm hoping it will end the Halo series with a bang.

Yeah, the Halo engine is much less frequently used, in fact the only game outside of the franchise that I know uses the engine is Stubbs the Zombie, but that was back in the days of Halo: Combat Evolved. Good times...
