It is a significant improvement over the Halo 3 Theater, which suffered from a number of usability problems. In the middle of a Team SWAT match last night, I managed to pull off a pretty lucky shot on Sword Base. Using the Theater, I created <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bungie.net\/Stats\/Reach\/FileDetails.aspx?fid=296234\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a film clip<\/a> that might be entertaining for those of you in the beta that can watch it (I don&#8217;t have a Bungie Pro account, so I can&#8217;t render it to playable video).<\/p>\n<p>But, I was able to snap <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bungie.net\/stats\/reach\/fileshare.aspx?player=Zepfhyr&amp;fc=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a few choice screenshots<\/a> that I found entertaining.
