Some people may see it as good, but it's just taking the originality out of Reach. The new maps are confusing & hard to follow. & yeah, the party size one is stupid.
But maybe if enough people complain they'll change it back?
They've added in new maps & changed the max local players from 4 to 2.
It's annoying. Now we've got to learn like 4 new maps and I have to get a new Xbox & TV if I want 3 of my friends to help me on Invasion cos they're only letting 2 players to each Xbox now.
