Ne1 give this a go ?

Is it gonna be a dead game in a month ?

How is the buildup ?

I've been playing a lot of it, really enjoying it (although I also played a lot of it on the Xbox 360 10 years ago). Overall the port is pretty good and I haven't had any issues finding games. For 10$ I can't find a reason to not pick it up. The rest of the games are coming next year, I imagine once Halo 2 and 3 are out the multiplayer will be less populated than those games, but I don't think it will be dead.

If I had to name some negatives they would be..

• The UI is clearly made for console, and feels pretty clunky
• If you tab out while finding a game the game will sometimes say you are afk and cancel the search
• There is currently no easy way to report players, you have to do this from a separate application

Do you think Reach will be the default multiplayer option, or will any of the other games climb later ?

You can play any one you queue up for, its just that reach is all that is available right now. I'm sure some will stick with reach, it has the best character customization as well as (imo) the best swat which is a pretty popular game mode. Only negatives to reach multiplayer to me are the armor abilities and the limited maps.

would u recommend the $40 pack, or the $10 reach.

Just boughtz.   Very odd mouse feel..  Still way better than Halo 1 netcode, but it definitely does not have the tightness of Overwatch or Doom (2016)..

This is prolly gud' enuff for hard-fans, but it may be an uphill to get more new players into the fold.

It's mouse and keyboard control, but still feels like controller movement on screen (visually).
