Default Halo: Reach / Multiplayer Beta

So, as pretty much everyone has heard, the Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta will be released on May 3rd 2010, nd you will need the Halo 3: ODST disc to access it.

What's everyones thoughts on what you've seen of the game so far, and do you think it will success, and beat CoD: MW2, or just fail and make no sales at all?

I didn't like ODST too much, but I still have it, so I guess that means I'll be able to play the beta? Yippie ^_^

Hopefully this will be better.. I haven't researched much about it, though, is master chief gonna be in there? I damn hope so! But yeh I think this one is gonna be a success. Crossing my fingers..

Cause to me, Halo wars and ODST weren't.

Same here, I hated ODST, the only reason I still have it is because I want to be one of the first to play the Reach beta.

I'm not sure about the Chief in it, but I think there is like a squad of Spartan III's in Reach as they all have upgraded armour, but I think there is one Spartan II. I hope Master Chief is in the game though, with Chief, Halo doesn't seem very good tbh.

Yeah hopefully it will be a success, but Bungie need to actually learn to advertise the game here in the UK, seeing as I only saw like 2 adverts for ODST, and they were advertised around 2 months after it's release, and didn't have anything to do with the game. I think they need to follow in the footsteps of IW and how they marketed MW2, seeing as you couldn't go anywhere without seeing adverts for it.

ODST was sorta fun depending on what you look at

Master Chief will most likely not make a apperance as this focuses on the other Spartan II/III's they are trying to make a point that Master Chief is not the only spartan alive and there are many that made it out after reach.

This game will most likely beat MW2 sales if the beta is up to the standards of the players.

Agreed. They have to make the multiplayer beta good though, as I'm sure thats what most people play Halo for, the multiplayer experience.

I liked Halo ODST when was playing FireFight with mates, but Halo Wars just didn't do it for me :(

Halo Reach i think will be one of the best Games of 2010, It'll definately show Bungie for what they can do on their last Game :(:(:(

The "Beta" coming on May 3rd, isn't what some people are saying it is. Yes, it is an online multiplayer, but you need to remember it's a beta and not the full game. So don't get all your theories on the beta, as they won't happen in the real game.

Agreed, but the most popular part of Halo is the multiplayer I believe, so if Bungie fail to show us something good in the multiplayer beta, I expect sales to be quite low. I mean if you look at the BF: BC2 multiplayer demo, that was one gametype on one level, yet it was extremely fun, and if I had enough money I would certainly buy the game.
