Hey to those who have the reach beta and got to play a few games. Is the gameplay different form Halo 3? I dont really plan on buying a game that i just want for the beta so i want peoples personal opinion.
It different from Halo 3. New weapon. There so many details. If you want to play go and rent Halo ODST.

To me the game just feels like Halo 3 with some different weapons and Jetpacks. I really don't see that big of a difference other than some of the added moves and the armor options. I'll give it a chance and play it more during the week and weekend though.

Ok so I played the beta last night with Captmayhem for a couple of hours to get a feel for it. Here are a couple of thoughts on the game:
The Good:
The game is visually very sexy. From the Armor to the explosions everything is in vibrant color and pleasing to the eye
New weapons equal YEEEEEAAHHH!!: I fell in love with the needler rifle last night. Although it may need a little tweaking before the actually game comes out, it still is a bad ass piece of hardware. also played with the redesign AR/BR and they handled well
Armor powers: All are great & they all have their advantages & disadvantages. I suggest trying them all. My personal favorite: Stalker very satisfying
Match setting: Very well balanced (even when I was getting my ass handed to me on a silver platter i could appreciate the whupping)
The Bad:
Load time: it sucks sometimes 7 last night annoyed me when I couldn't play with people I wanted to because the servers copped out. I'm sure BUNGIE is on it to fix this (hint, hint)
veto system: I still think this part needs some work. Maybe a little tutorial or something to get you to understand it more
Tonight i will try to get in more matches to test out grab bag so I will have more to say then......
Anybody wanna game tonight??

I find most things to be balanced in the game so far. The major complaint I have with it is the DMR and nades.
The DMRs spread is too extreme. I'm a player that aims for the head at all times and with this spread thing I just cant hit the head because the bullet flys in which ever way it pleases. Bring the bullet spread down a bit or increase the damage.
And the frag grenades have a blast radius thats just too wide.
Other than that, its awesome. Too bad last night the theater wasnt working properly, I had this sweet ass overkill. Alas, twas not to be.

Tried to play last night after DL'ing it.
Every time I tried to connect to a game I would get disconnected from live......I could play anything else, but no beta.

I agree about the DMR. I aim for the head in bursts and it felt like was using a shotgun from across the room no hit

The BR will be missed

i didnt like the BR from 3 honestly. i always used my combo of spray and fist face. assualt + elbow = both of us are dead(at least i killed you)

Bungie.net has a new profile center for you if you've played the beta. its pretty badass, and sheds some light on the little medal chest.

The only three complaints I've had are
The Assualt Rifle is really weak
The Grenades are way too powerful
And Armor lock is annoying but that's not really that much of an issue
Other then that I love this game A LOT.
