Sword block isn't perfect, but it was at least something to help counter balance to sword.Halo 5 got it gud tho. CQC weapons can actually give the sword handler a run for his money in that game.Reach did have the best weapon variety, but so much was fucked up by BUNGiEs retardation. The assault rifle somehow mannaged to be even worse that it was in Halo 3, bloom raped ranged weapons, and even when 343 took it out it made the needle rifle OP to the point that it couldn't even be allowed as a power weapon. The plasma repeaters/rifles and the focus rifle were water guns. And what the hell was the Spiker even doing in that game at all?h3 actually had the most (effectively) diverse sandboxedit: inb4 backlash. my body is ready.Kill yourself. Halo 3 was flooded with shit weapons that served no purpose. Then the other weapons were useless half the time because "muh br". The only Halo game with a worse sandbox is Halo 2. This is how the order goes:Halo 5 Beta > Halo: CE > Halo: Reach > Halo 4 > Halo 3 > Glitch Simulator 2004You forget H2A > H:CE (when it works)Halo 3> H2A when it works > "Muh Button Combos" H2A falls with the the same things H2 did wrong. It's just less glitchy and has nicer graphics.Thats a joke right? Halo 3s gunplay is almost as bad as pre-TU reach.

With Reach it's another one gum game, the DMR has bloom, the AR is just as bad as the one in Halo 3 and ODST, the plasma repeater is nearly useless, the plasma rifle takes a while to kill and the spiker isn't all that great. For the focus rifle even though that thing replaced the beam rifle and it has the same range as it you can't use that thing as a sniper rifle. The only thing it's able to do is drop shields and unless you can follow up the shot or have a teamamte near him that gun is useless. The only time it's useful is when the Jackels have them due to other enemies being by you.

OT: I have no idea what <insert rights owner at the time> were thinking when they made Zombie Ghosts a matchmaking gametype, that more often than not, ends up being all 3 choices without a "none of the above" option. Seriously, I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than play that shit gametype. It's worse than the Assassination Custom game. Also in the past few weeks I've had some lag issues on matchmaking, and I haven't played a single custom game in the past month without having at least 1 second of delay in my actions. They could've given the Plasma Rifle and Shotgun the same damage/range they had in Halo 1, because on most maps, those, the spiker, the Plasma Repeater and the Focus Rifle were as useful as shooting the enemy with harsh words. Invasion was a fun gametype though, and with a better balance, I'm sure it would've proven to be a brilliant gametype. It's a shame that only Swat, Living dead, and BTB playlists have a remotely significant population these days. I don't like waiting MCC-tier times for a match as much as the next person. Oh yeah, the Betrayal booting mechanic seems to almost exclusively work when it's an accidental betrayal, and does sweet fuck all if a teammate shoots you to death/kills you in a painfully obviously deliberate manner.
It's worse than the Assassination Custom game.

if you're dumb enough to get close to a sword user then that's your own fault.

If the TU offered good gameplay, then the Team Slayer playlist supporting it would have a decent population, no? Even back when Reach had a constant 60k-100k players, that TU playlist never got more than 600 players in it.

People who make competitive forge maps in H2A won't even use swords on them, and just place shotguns instead
But when you can spawn with a pocket shotgun and plasma grenades, it kind of cancels out the well balanced weapon sandbox.

In Halo 3 and Reach if you have an AR and I have a BR/DMR you are screwed even at close range. Unless you are able to do a melee attack I'm going to gun you down. Even in CE the AR wasn't all that great. With Halo 4 you stand a chance against someone with a BR and you have the AR. I would say the weapon sandbox that has every weapon being useful and each of the normal types being able to go against each other would be more balanced than the one that has useless weapons. Yes you can spawn with the pocket shotgun but I would rather have people spawning with that thing than spawning with a gun you do shit with like the Reach AR.

Reach stayed a steady 60k-90k players, 100k during holidays, until Halo 4 came out. The TU came out a good year or so before Halo 4. For that entire length of time, I never once say the Super Slayer playlist go above 1k players. You can go on Reach now and look, it's stupidly low compared to the other playlists.
Even with being able to choose which weapons you want to spawn with I would say it's still balanced. In Halo 3 and Reach if you have an AR and I have a BR/DMR you are screwed even at close range.
I just played Halo Reach for the first time in the last 2 years.
