Starting Halo Reach team

[Messi]

Well Hellbinn if you are just practicing cause you havent played on the 360 alot thats fine. But in physics its different. Its like playing hawx and then trying to play flight simulator. youll understand the basics but the complex stuff will overwhelm you. ODST would probably be the best practice for Reach. But dont even get it. ITs called ODSTD for a reason, it sucks ass.

[Hellbinn]

Sigh lol, so do you think the changes are better?

Ah well either way its new game, new weapons to get used to, the armor choices, etc, shall be fun stuff indeed.

ODST only sucked because everyone expected it to be some great next gen Halo even though everyone knew it was just another side of the story line. I had fun with it, why? Because I wasn't expecting a new Halo I only expected another fun campaign

Messi can you help me out with a question? This new arena, is it a playlist or is rank now just called arena and is pro slayer in there with starting DMR and sprint only?

[Messi]

I did a long ass report on the reach beta. 2000 words. it was suppose to go up with the new site but it never did. ill tell kreeper to post it. But here is what i wrote for arena.

Arena is a Playlist
Arena Ranking
After playing 3 arena games you will get your daily ranking. 1000 lowest 2000 highest. Your average rating is calculated by your top 5 games within that day.

Once you get enough rankings you will be put in a division. 1 crappiest and 5 is the best. Which division you are in is calculated by your skill, you are not locked into a division. You may go up or down depending on your SKILL.

and Pro Slayer, is DMR start, and sprint, thats it. But basically its for hardcore ppl. no cheap shit like the armor lockdown, etc.

[Syl3ntFury]

Ah k. So does Arena have everything in the playlist, all the AA's and weapons? Or is it going to be more hardcore such as DMR start and sprint only? I loved MLG playlist in Halo 3 so I was looking for the closest play list I could get to play mainly. Arena ratings sound awesome but if I don't have a DMR start I probably won't play it. I hate the assault rifle with a passion and pointless weapons

[Messi]

Arena is like a Team hardcore. Mostly hard weapons to use. DMR, Pistol, Sniper. Not noobiefied stuff. I like it alot. The assault rifle was super gay in Halo 3 because we were so used to dominating with the BR, it became worthless.. All my friends. have top kills with the BR, the one friend that has MELEE and then AA we call him a noob.

[Syl3ntFury]

Lol very nice. So Arena is basically like Pro Slayer?

[Messi]

No, in Arena you get to play both types. Normal and Pro. Through the voting system. there is 3 maps/gametypes to vote on and whichever gets more votes is picked. I found it that in the beta due to the "open beta" cause of ODST it was full of noobs that everytime pro slayer popped up only 3 votes where made. mine and my friends. I guess they cant survive without the Armor lockdown which is basically paladin bubble from wow. except you cant move.

[Syl3ntFury]

Bah Maybe I'll just play Pro Slayer than. We'll see

I'm interested in this i loved halo 2 and 3 was always casual did however play with a friend that went to mlg.
