Always a step ahead and a day behind.

Downloaded it the other night after unearthing my ODST disc from the mess of my games.

So far I like the way it plays, was dicking around in Covy Slayer. People for some reason are really bad at avoiding the plasma pistol/weird sniper needler thing combo. Got like 24 kills in a match by using the radar and my plasma pistol into headshot.

Stopped playing though because it was late, gonna try the other match types out. Didn't have any real noticeable issues, though. I also lawled at the rolling addition.

Invasion is incredible, unless of course you get a dickwad partner who leaves during the match. Then the game goes to shit. And I love the Grenade Launcher. Best weapon for me besides the DRM. And SWAT matches are a lot more enjoyable.
just so everyone knows, when I rant or I'm mad or I'm happy I curse. Sorry if anyone is offended. though no one tends to give a shit here...

Here are a few small sites I'm on that need help:

Meh. I was pumped for Invasion but I found it to be underwhelming. For one, there are four players missing. Seriously, Bungie—you don't promote a gametype to be the pinnacle of Big Team Slayer Halo games and then ONLY PUT IN 12 PLAYERS. With as big a map as Boneyard is, it felt goddamn empty most of the time.

Secondly, you can spawn with power weapons at the third phase. The amount of energy swords and fully loaded shotguns lying around was RIDICULOUS.

The rounds are too goddamn short. Making them a minute longer would probably be good enough, at least as long as standard BTS games.

There were quite a few bugs we encountered. Occasionally, when I or my brother respawned as an Elite while in the Bow area of the map, the respawning individual would die for no reason the moment he revived.

Everything else is p. cool. Bungie has attested that they are fixing a bunch of things I thought were problems, like the ez mode melee attacks and OP grenades and barely visible target reticules. Thank God.

I just got my division. Unfortuantely, my division got dicked because I had like 5 games where teammates left and the other team spawn killed and hoarded the power weapons.

My friend downloaded this and told me about it today. Sounds pretty awesome. I don't have ODST, so I won't be downloading the BETA myself. D: I do have the game reserved though, so I'll hopefully pick it up the day it comes out and absorb myself in it. :D

I haven't unlocked much. Only played a couple of rounds yesterday. Invasion is pretty fun but like soja said, the more players the better.

The nerfed melée thing has become an issue for me though.... I was pretty upfront whenever I played Halo3 but I guess I need to back up a bit and think things through a little more in Reach...

Oh yeah, and the third teir portion of Invasion is ridiculous!

I want to play this right now. RIGHT NOW GODDAMNIT! I've been watching videos on youtube, and I'm crying out of desperation. This looks so great!

I hope the campaign is as good as it looks as well.

IIRC xbox live gold members will have access to it for a
few days.... Maybe...

In sure you could find a used copy of ODST on amazon or gamestop for cheap

Xbox Live Silver members will have access to it this week, I believe. I think you still need the ODST campaign disc though.

Soja was watching videos for ever and never got around to actually playing while I was on. That sucked :(

anyway, is there anyway to improve your chances of being on a certain team
when it comes to Invasion?

I like invasion, except when your whole team sucks. We got owned the first two phases as the Spartans last match and I had to save the day with only moments to prevent the loss of the core. Killtacular in a scorpion tank ftw.

I was doing my Beta duty and uploading evidence of overpowered bullshit and glitches for Bungie's disposal.

I know what you mean, Rock.

I got a silver star with a 1 in it. I wasn't paying attention so I mightve missed something saying the name of whatever group I was put in.
