There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

"I would have been your daddy, but the dog beat me over the fence."

I've seen a fair few posts arising asking Bungie to remove Auto-aim and quite frankly, it's begining to piss me off.

If everyyone decided to open their minds a little and stop being so narrow minded, perhaps they would have noticed the blindingly obvious yet simple and effective solution. It's called options.

Y'know in Halo 3 we have game options? Well, I know it's a bit radical, but I'm thinking that Bungie could introduce the option to turn auto-aim on or off! Think about it! no more arguments over whether people want it or not, because you'll get the choice to have it on or not.

So, what do you people think? Good idea, or is it just too much for the narrow-minded Bungie community to accept? Discuss.

Your friendly and eccentric Sangheili forum-poster. :)

As said in the previous thread, I'm all for players having the option to turn on or off auto aim. Plus, it will bring new varieties in how people play the game.

Imagine if there was was a FPS that forced you to play inverted (or default if you're inverted).

It's the same concept, some might play better with auto-aim, others might not.

I think it should be a similar level to Halo 1/Halo 3, but with much less reticle stickiness. Ever try to shoot a fusion coil behind someone in Halo 3? Not going to happen, you can't get your reticle off of them in time.

Exactly. I'm just suprised this idea wasn't announced before, but evidently it hasn;t because we're still getting threads about how Auto-Aim should stay or go.

As for the strength of the auto-aim, perhaps it could be similar to sensitivity. 0 means no auto-aim, 10 means really sticky.

I think it would be good as a custom game option but I think AA should be the same for everyone in a game. The higher the AA, the easier the game is for everyone (unless people are bunching up or standing infront of a fusion coil).

Oh no, that just ain't true. Auto-aim can be a real pain to many. I don't understand why so many good ideas have to be reserved for custom games when they could only benefit Matchmaking.
