I got to Set 6, Round 2, Wave 5 on Heroic GETTING ME RECON! ;)

hes talking about when you move your gun across the screen.

you turn (and its moving at a steady pace) then as you continue turning (it slightly becomes more of a blur because the movement picks up) even though your on the same sensitivity level.

Because what he is saying doesen't make sense.


Aiming engine?

Honestly, you give us no real insight to any problem you are having. All you said is its like throwing a cat.

Do you have a problem with Magnetism? Or Aim Assist? Because those are two different things.

If you want to play a game with a more accurate aiming system stick to the Keyboard/Mouse combo, go and buy Halo Pc and Halo 2 Vista. Console games needs aim assists as controllers are not as accurate and a mouse.

Wow, I've never heard of someone complaining about aim acceleration. It's an improvement to the game.

Wow is isn't either of those. Does no one know anything about this game?
Aim Acceleration is what it it called.
Accurately it accelerates how fast you look around/aim as you move the joystick. It isn't a if your move it so far it moves to fast it is a you move it so far is starts out slow then goes faster.

As in the sensitivity it moves over an X and Y Axis?

Honestly?

I think you are the first person I have seen on these Forums who have actually complained about a problem as small as this.

The reason I say its small because it almost goes unnoticed by the Community.

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

Personally, I have never heard of aim acceleration, even from my friend who plays in MLG tournaments. Aren't there bigger problems that Bungie could spend their time fixing that would be noticed by a larger portion of the community?

It goes unnoticed by these forums because most people here are teenagers and most teenagers are retarded and they are fanboys and not competitive/competent gamers.

Explain to me why Competitive players are on such a higher pedestal than Casual players (hint: it's a trick question).

Ok, stop right there dude. This statement right here makes you look more like one of those "casual teenagers" yourself. Your initial post is so entertainingly incoherent i'm not sure how you could expect most to understand.

The issue that you are detailing is not nearly as big as an issue as you are making it. While different from other shooters, good players, experienced players (y'know the group you seem to claim your part of) adjust to this.

I've been playing Halo since CE, i've played competitively and i've goofed off with the physics for several years. What you are griping about affects a players control only as long as the player doesn't adjust. It's another one of those things that a more experienced player would have subconsciencly learned how to deal with through the course of improving.

Um it isn't a problem you spend time fixing. It is a problem that you just don't put into the game. Another sign you don't know anything

Taking an option out isn't as easy as "we don't want it, so poof it's gone." Bungie loves their games, and because of that have a very rigorous screening method for new idea implementation. Bungie would have to devote time and resources into determining whether the idea was a good'n. Obviously they will second guess many ideas they want to put in, but their time could be better used to solve larger problems, rather than decide if this insignificant glitch (or idea made by Bungie) is really worth their time.

The answer is. Would you rather have me diagnose and fix your car or the 20 year owner of a mechanic shop. A guy that has spent years getting to know the inter working and quirks of a car.

Answer is you would rather have a Gamer that has spend he time gaming trying to be the best by understanding every aspect of a game or the guy you pops the disc in for 2 years and doesn't even know what Aim acceleration is. Or bullet refund. or wall glitching(it might have another name but where your hitting the guy but on host screen your shooting a wall. You might know some of those since we bring these travesties to your attention but I doubt it.
Competitive gaming is a small aspect of the video game industry. The truth is, the majority of the gaming community are casual gamers, and at the end of the day Bungie is a business. They want to bring in a larger fan base (as all gaming companies do), so they make the game work for more casual players.

I understand that casual players won't even notice the changes associated with these tests, but why not get both opinions on the game from both casual and competitive players? Your car analogy is off because competitive players are not like mechanics since they do not know the inner workings of video games, they merely desire what makes the game more competitive.

You could point out all the glitches associated with the game, but that then requires time and resources to fix the problem, time and resources Bungie could spend making the game a better experience for both casual and competitive players, not just competitive players.

I bet money I know stuff that half that studio doesn't

This game has purposely had changes that made the game worse for competitive players and hasn't changed for casuals since they never notice anything. They barely notice the old melee system and that was the worst thing ever. Even in the old polls 10-20% likes the system therefor know nothing of games. It is the developers job to train casual players into the fundementals of the game. They got lazy and didn't do that which lost even casual players since it lacked that immersion element as you get into the game.


It's the devs job to make a game enjoyed by the majority kid, you seriously need to get a grip. Practically every post and thread I have ever seen from you at some point culminates in "rank equals knowledge", and that proves you know less of what you are talking about than you like to pretend.

If the competitive community takes a game and does something with it to their liking, then good for them. No successful game has ever been made with the competitive community in mind.

Aim acceleration being a bad thing is a matter of opinion yet you talk about it like it is fact which makes you seem arrogant. You also don't need to insult people for having an opinion different than yours or because they didn't understand your original post.
Now, I by know means would consider myself a casual gamer. I've played Halo since CE first came out and I've played it a lot. Aim acceleration has never negatively impacted gameplay for me so I've got no problem with it. Now the melee system and cheaters have negatively impacted gameplay so to me those are real problems.
