COME ON PEOPLE START COMPLAINING TO BUNGIE THAT HAVING THE RADAR ON IS FOR NOOBS AND UNLESS THE PEOPLE AT BUNGIE ARE NOOBS THEY SHOULD TAKE THE RADAR OFF FOR RANKED GAMES FOR 2 REASONS:
i) it makes for an intense game cause you actually have to constantly watch yor back instead of the radar
and ii) it takes more skill to be good at a FPS when there is no radar involved cause it makes it harder to kill and easier to die
SO COME NOOBS TAKE AWAY THE RADAR PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before I dissect your poorly written attempt at voicing your so-called "opinion," allow me to give you a number: 7/16. That is the distance, in inches, from your pinky, resting on the "A" key, to the "Caps Lock" key. Make use of this incredibly short distance and [color=red]turn the key off.[/color]
i) it makes for an intense game cause you actually have to constantly watch yor back instead of the radar
Umm...not only does the Halo 2 radar only see about 15 feet, turn off when you use a scope, and not detect crouched/active camouflaged people (try it some time...it really does work), but it can be turned off. Just create your own custom game on XBL. Also, if you're constantly watching your back anyways, why are you griping about the radar? If someone sees you on it, it's your fault for not taking them out at a longer range and using your supposed "skills." It's also your fault for not crouching to stay off the radar. It's not like it's their fault that you made yourself detectable.
ii) it takes more skill to be good at a FPS when there is no radar involved cause it makes it harder to kill and easier to die
Well, if it takes so much more skill, then don't play Halo 2. Use your "skills" somewhere else.
But, seriously, how does it make it "harder to kill" and "easier to die?" Do you realize that you just directly contradicted yourself? Do you think that the radar somehow grants you more health?
Instead of complaining, devote your time to finding a tactic that defeats the motion sensor. Simple as that.
