Its hard to explain it, Halo 3 the framerate and input lag or something and internet lag made it all feel very surreal like I'm not playing the game I'm just watching it. Like I'm playing Halo through molasses.



You know what... I agree with this, switching between CoD and Halo 3 was especially difficult. I dont know what happened, I must have played so much and switched between games so much I eventually got used to it. Even now though the first few games of Halo 3 I play after ages feel like shit. It takes a while to adjust and I dont totally know why that is, but once you desensitize to the weird feeling the game feels amazing.



I feel more in the game and agile in Reach. Like my individual skill matters more, and thats really important to me.



I dont agree with the fact you feel more agile in Reach, you play vanilla right? That shit felt terrible, bloom DMR and Sniper autoaim made Reach feel like it took no skill. Halo 3 felt good man, going for 50 felt like it was worth going for, out br'ing people or out sniping them felt satisfying. I cant think of a single person who bothered going for Gold or whatever in Arena, and I think that's because the gameplay sucked, not only cos the ranking system sucked.





Also even when games are super laggy usually the game is checking to see if my hits register and with the hitscan DMR my accuracy seems to always be rewarded. Whereas in Halo 3 you can get into a completely random BR battle where because of spread/undefined leading/and XBL internet lag you can miss every shot completely unbeknownst to me the player when they actually think they are doing a good job.



Yeah when lag kicks in Halo 3 feels terrible, also Shiska made matchmaking unplayable. I think the reason I loved Halo 3 so much is because I only ever played customs with people who lived no more than like an hour from me. Connection was good, gametypes where good, game was good. I would have hated playing 5v5 AR starts on Isolation or whatever Bungie thought was fun.



I have deleted the DLC maps so the number of good maps I enjoy playing on is highest in Reach compared to any other Halo thats still played actively online.



Halo 3 Pit and Guardian to me feel better than anything in Reach, especially if you dont touch Reach MLG.



Plus Oddball Swordbase. I had some ridiculous moments last night, out DMR's and great snipes. Hit the Tashi ceiling though.
