in halo 2 you can doubleshot, bxb and bxr and that take more skill then only shoting someone normaly like in halo 3 beacuse in halo 3 the one how get the first hit win, if you dosent suck at the aiming. so thats way I think halo 2 is more skilled then halo 3The BXR and BXB really don't take that much skill and are unbalanced and unfair, especially to players who don't use them. The double shot actually involves skill, but a major advantage over players who don't use them either. In Halo 2, there's the game-cripping auto-aim which makes it much easier to aim than in the first or third game.
This is a perfect example of the attitude of someone who got wopped in Halo 2.

How much can you possibly fail?
First, if i DON'T use the shotgun in a game of shottys - i will get pwnd. That's the simple rules of the game. If you don't adjust yourself to game you're playing you will lose. You can't just say "Hey! I can't do that! Let's DON'T do that." It's like yelling "Okay guys, nobody use snipers ok?" in the pregame lobby - stupid.
Second. Well, do i need a second?That's an extremely absurd logic.
I'm not biased against them, I like these glitches. I used the BXR quite frequently. I performed BXBs often as anyone else. The fact of the matter is, they shouldn't be in the damn game in the first place and they alter the gameplay, and players should not be forced to use them just because others want to manipulate exploits to gain an advantage and they have every right to feel violated if other players are deviating from how the game was meant to be played. You're comparing exploiting errors against players who don't know how to use them to what Bungie actually intended as a developer for the player to do, which is an absurd and invalid analogy for the reasons above.
However, I should have elaborated when I stated that the BXR and BXB don't take much skill. I meant in comparison to the original Halo. In the first game, you could double melee and if performed correctly gave you a kill, the drawback (key word there, draw back) being you had to throw a grenade in order to perform it, which was one less grenade you could have thrown at your opponent later and could end up killing you if you didn't watch out for it, and it was much more difficult to melee players in the first game. A successful BXR has no draw back. The BXB can be performed at no cost to the player. The double shot is the only one that takes real considerable skill, which is no doubt impressive in my mind, but there is no draw back.
If you want to BXR and double shot, that's fine in customs and tournaments and what-have-you where consent is a given. Just don't expect any respect from me when you use it against players who don't want to use them and they don't want you to use them either.
Also, you can do without the inflammatory remarks on the side because you're coming off as arrogant and it's inconducive to discussion, which is what fthis forum is for.
