Keep practicing man. What gives you the most trouble? Try learning the map layout and the possible choke points. Also if you're good with a DMR/Pistol you can try stealing kills with headshots xD

As for the credits discussion yes it is tough leveling up. I do good in almost every game and play and get an average of 400-500 cr. I do great(meaning going positive 18-24) and I get 559crs which makes no sense. Sometimes I do terrible and manage to get over 900cr for no reason at all. I just do the daily challenges, and since I'm a matchmaking whore I'll eventually get all the credits I will need.

but i hate team swat, horrible at it

Swat annoys me because it regularly appears in almost every playlist and noobs go for it thinking it makes them pro playing a CS ripoff, though most of these kids don't even know what CS is and just choose it because it is closest thing to MW2. Personally I prefer classic Halo with DMRs/BRs. You get a balanced weapon(in the case of DMR....since the BR is OP) from the get go and have to work with your aim, strafe, jumping, crouching to lower the enemy's shields. The whole you're dead in a micro-second by a single headshot where lag and whoever sees who first wins 85% of the time is boring and dull, taking all the fun and variety of the game out of the window.

Don't get me wrong I like Swat, but it needs its own playlist so people that want to play that all the time go play it and leave the rest of us alone.

Yeah, that's pretty much the biggest beef I have with multiplayer. I really wish they wouldn't try to shove all these gametypes on us by making it like a vote or w/e. What happened to the old days when you could go online and choose just team slayer or team snipers or territories and play just that gametype, all day if you wanted to?

I mean FFS, Halo 1 for PC's got the old fashioned server type matchmaking where you could choose the game type and the map? =O omg unheard of!

I will never understood why games don't have that feature anymore.

Any of you fellas interested in playing matchmaking mp/firefight(that achievement whoring vid thingy?)?

I'm finally starting to get better at this game again. Its been very long and I've finally had a day where I got a few 20+ kill games my highest being 25.

Edit: By the way what are your guy's favorite armor abilities?

This annoys me too. I join Invasion because I want to play Invasion, not Invasion Slayer. The maps are so huge that hunting for 100 kills gets boring.

My problem honestly is the whole play style. I'm not as precise with aiming or as continually running and jumping while maintaining a perfect sight on my opponent's head. Nothing for it but practice, I'm sure.

Changing your controller to Bumper Jumper helps a lot with jumping and aiming at the same time, it also helps with beatdowns.

Already got those firefight achievements with someone using that method in the vid. Kinda wouldn't mind doing it with someone again though just to see Hunters and rocket launchers flying around everywhere. 😛

Now I'll mostly pretty much be playing invasion on matchmaking I guess.

Well, my friend and I beat campaign last night. And by beat, I guess I mean I got killed straight off in Lone Wolf and had to watch him be much, much better at the game than I will ever be.

The whole ending actually rather pissed me off. Reviews had praised the game's story, but I found almost the entire thing to be one big cliche storm. ermm

I liked the ending. Specially after credits.

How's this game for people who generaly didn't care much for the other Halo games? I never finished Combat Evolved, and the only thing that got me through Halo 3 was the story (got I hate the sluggish controls), is Reach's story better then the Halo 3 story?

.

I r in love with my custom Spartan <3!!! The grenadier helmet is el awesome and so is the blue visor. I can't wait to get the grunt-like armor effect...I'm going to have to save cRs like a bad mofo.

So, is it just me,or,

Spoiler:
did Noble 6 survive falling through atmosphere and hitting the ground from literally hundreds of thousands of miles up with no visible damage sustained by her suit?

Not like it doesn't have a precedent...

My point is that SPARTAN 3 armor is significantly weaker than Spartan 2 armor... so... if Noble 6 could survive falling through the atmosphere completely unscathed... well, it speaks volumes for the Master Chief's durability.

Except not really; Noble team uses MJOLNIR armor as well.

I find it far more distressing that Six

Spoiler:
survived re-entry,
but Kat is
Spoiler:
OHK'd with a single needle.
