Femme fatale; oh snap. | Halo vet since 2003.

Love the pic, hate the lag in Ranked BTB. I haven't been in Ranked BTB since... well, it came out, due to the SEVERE amount of lag in any given game there.

If I understood correctly, the BR bullet can occur anywhere in the radius of the margin of error. This is great to know because it explains a lot of frustration by revealing the reason that you cannot consistently beat an opponent, atleast when they are outside the "hitscan" radius anyway. There's no telling what quadrant of the target your 2nd and 3rd bullets will fall into, so the last trigger pull of a BR battle (where both hit all their shots) can be a "crap shoot". This is problem is magnified in the competitive world where individual bullets count.

So, my opinion is that Halo 3 lacks the consistency for competitive play based on skill, but rather teamwork.

it's sickening to play MLG and then right after play the Default. it's really insane how bad the BR performs on default. i've never seen a group of developers dumb down their most used weapon from the previous game.

bungie consistently attempts to make this game a FPS on training wheels. the game is getting it's butt handed to them by COD4, a game where a skilled weapon doesn't require an average of 5 or 6 shots to kill someone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea, i know people are getting banned and annoying about recon....but seriously there has to be more armor in the game or some other added extras...the online gets repetitive eentually. The double xp weekends was a fantastic idea, but they arent that good playlists. Team slayer, team snipers, and team doubles were all the biggest playlists throughought the halo series....Bungie(i ask you nicely) put these playlists on double xp, and add team snipers. i can personally guarantee a hit and talk for the weeks to come!

idk but "getting its [sic] butt handed to them" seems a bit overstating it...
