i get wat u guys are sayin but i argee with AF ARMY,,,only the best players can play without an auto target or aim assist....it always messes up my sniping.....i try to lead the target a little but the reticle gets draged a little behind and my reticle moves slower over targets
Yes but with a game like Halo 2 it's needed.
First off, it's played on a console, so it involves thumbsticks for aiming. It's really hard to kill someone without aim assist but you can try it- attempt to four shot someone on your team when he's jumping and strafing and you'll see what I'm talking about. You'll probably need an entire clip to do such a thing.
Bungie made this game so casual players can have fun. But even the good players would suffer without aim assist, so the casual players would have a horrid time. Part of what makes a game fun is the ability to kill people effective. If it's too difficult, you're only going to have a tight niche group of players dedicating even more time to getting good.
Second, there's lag/latency. You have to factor that this game is played online and there's a lot of times where you get into laggy battle. Aim assist is there so that even in lag you have a fighting chance.
Lets just say this- it's better that aim assist is there as opposed to not being there.
I disagree. The reason that its hard is because the aim assist is there. If it had never been there from the begining then people would have been used to playing without it and it would be alot easier to team kill..........maybe we do need it.
I'm a little confused as to what you're getting at .......
What's easier? Killing someone on the other team, or a teammate? It's the person on the other team because you have the aim assist. If you try to kill someone on your team you'll see how much harder it is because there's no aim assist. If you've never tried it, try it and you'll see why we have aim assist.
It's designed to make the game easier and more accessible. Granted, a lot of people feel the aim assist for Halo 2 was pretty high (which it is) but that has been fixed for Halo 3. But not by taking it out, but rather toning it down to a more enjoyable level (good people will be good because they can aim but casual players can still get kills as well.)
Aim assist is necessary for a game like Halo 2. Heck, it's not like everyone can four shot all the time, there are plenty of times when I completely miss shots. So the aim assist doesn't mean we get automatic kills- it just means we can kill people without too much frustration.
