Everyone?
I love the game & I am sure lots of others here do too
It was different from Halo 3 (very) so thats probably the reason why everyone else hated it..

Well, MOST anyway.

I have not met ONE person except you, who likes the game.

I disliked it only due to how much bloom affected the game. It was pretty good after the update to take all of that out. I still thought it was better than Halo 3 though. I couldn't stand the equipment pick-ups in that game. I don't understand the hate Reach got or is getting either. Wasn't that bad of one.

Firstly, it was a huge step down from Halo 3.

They destroyed the ranking system by trying to bring in something similar to Call of Duty's.
They added stupid perks that took away from the Halo feel.
They added bloom, which mostly everyone disliked. Again, taking from the Halo feel.
The game simply played differently, comparing to all the old Halo's.

And it goes on, I quit Halo Reach after a few months of playing it, even after playing Halo 3 for nearly 3 years straight.

Edit:

Let me add more to this, because I feel strongly about this game.

-Load outs: Taking away map control, gun control, power up control.
-Took out the BR: The BR was simply infamous.
-No ranks, as I said before: Taking out the high level competitive games, removing the competitive playlists, making Halo just like any other shooter out there.
The game revolved around the new comers.
-Sniping took less skill. Changing Snipers drastically.
-They removed the Halo background of things: No BR/Carbine, they changed the Hornet, they added other stupid vehicles, they made forge less of what it was before.
-They made the stupid Spartans vs. Elites thing, with the other playlists that came with that.
-Customs games were never the same.

And I could go on..

When this game was released, Halo slowly made it's way out of the MLG circuit. Imagine what it would be today if it was in the actual MLG circuit instead of it's own league that is very unpopular.

Basically, I played this game less and less until I finally quit, soon after I made the switch to Call of Duty.

I think you get the idea by now, with all of that being added that's why I hate Halo Reach.

Never hated Reach. My thoughts were that the game was too "Changed" with the way that bloom made it. Overall it was pretty good though.

At first i thought i was sh*t but then i bought it and i thought it was a great game and whoever hates Halo, their cod fanboys

I love that game. It just isn't halo 3 or 2

I know I love Halo Reach. Who says it's bad?

Call of Duty fanboys?

I haven't heard many people say the game was bad, Reach was a solid title.
