Did you see those awesome kills where they jumped on their back and knifed them? That would be incredible to do. Also; ROLLING!? WHAT!? That's amazing, spartans CAN roll. Also some of those power-ups look pretty table-turning :smug:

Its the new assassination mechanic. people knew about this since Reach was announced.
My question was; what was with the animation at the beginning of the video?
The one where one spartan jabbed another in the ribs.
Was he supposed to be holding a knife or was it a placeholder for something like a new energy sword anim?
Invasion looks pretty cool as well.

Bah, looks like garbage. The last good halo game was Halo 2, and that was only semi-decent.[/QUOTE]
You are dumb
Was that a single shot rifle I saw?

Yeah, the DMR, the replacement for the BR. It's semi-auto.
[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;20538320]And really, WTF with the jetpacks.
[/QUOTE]
There's been jetpacks in the games since Halo 2, you've just never been able to use them. It's a good idea on Bungie's part.
I'm looking forward to this game, it looks like it's bringin Halo 1 back. By that I mean it'll feel like Halo 1 all over again because it's just so different now.
I'd be happy if it were released for PC. My friends and I lan Halo 1 on our laptops and that's quite fun. If this has an option for significantly lower specifications that what it looks like by watching the video then it would be perfect.
So, it is Halo of Duty: Galactic Agenda?

I think that's the animation for when your facing each other and manage to pull of the assassination.
only Halo game I'm slightly excited for...
This [i]may[/i] change my opinion on Halo.
The jetpacks and assassinations look cool.
[QUOTE=BloodYScar;20536033]Seriously what the fuck are you guys smoking. It looks exactly like halo 3, which looked exactly like halo 2, which looked ALMOST exactly like halo. Plus some unbelievable awesome jetpack and assasination moves. Wow, im impressed.[/QUOTE]
I'm smoking weed. And if you think Reach looks exactly like halo 3 your fucking blind! Go eat a dick.

Thanks for the boxes, I can use them to store more boxes.
Seriously, "Halo Reach"? Don't tell me you guys didn't immediately think of the oral hygiene brand as soon as you heard the name.
I don't think there could be a stupider name for a game.[/QUOTE]
Hey asshole. thats the name of the planet. Go take your Trolling off my thread!
Hopefully the gameplay won't be centering on jetpacks and assassinations TOO much. Other than that, looks good.
BTW, do you get a beta key code with every ODST copy or what? I'm not too interested in ODST but I'd love to get to try the Reach beta.
Looks surprisingly good, shame i sold my xbox today.

No, any copy of Halo 3:ODST (Disc One) Will Contain the Halo Reach Beta. That means ODST is required. and No. Renting it wont work.
I read the comments before I watched the video and, considering the thousands of dumbs and disagree ratings everyone who posted "looks the same" got, I was really expecting a refreshing and interesting trailer.
Instead, all I got was a few minutes of multiplayer footage that looks exactly the same as Halo 3 but with some negligible extra features like jump-packs and assassinations and more shitty gamemodes. I understand that they're [I]new[/I] features, but the users in this thread talk about them like they're drastically changing the game and revolutionising Halo or something. Woo a grenade launcher. That will surely be worth my hard-earned cash.
I have to say the only thing that interested me in the slightest was the very nice animations for the assassinations. That's about it though. The rest didn't look worth my time or interest, let alone my money.

Renting isn't really an option here in Finland anyways. Buying a used copy works, though?
Aww fuck now my comment is on the last page and I won't get the attention I so unyieldingly crave.

Nope, Didn't even spring to my mind.
This might help you: [url]http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Reach[/url]
Why don't they get rid of the stupid fucking "waving arms in mid air" animation? It's getting old. Shown at 24 seconds.

Its not revolutionary, but what did you expect?
New weapons, items, and gamemodes are pretty much what you get from most sequels.
Hell, the loadout system already separates it from all other Halo games.
EDIT: I suppose that may have sounded a bit harsh, just to clarify, I'm not trying to bash your opinion, its just my two-cents worth.
