The internet is a bad place.

It would be nice if bungie would improve the aiming system over halo 3.
IMO the aiming felt bad and unnatural.The auto-aim was frustrating.

Don't start flaming me,i'm not a CoD fanboy,i'm not saying:"duurrrr CoD owns halo Durrrrrrrr" but;I recently picked up CoD 4 again and the aiming system felt more natural and easier.

If the aiming system could be made slightly more like that,it would be nice.

...I'm rather confused. You just point your reticule and fire. How is COD different than Halo in this regard?

The degree of Auto aim might be the cause.
I was playing with a friend who was playing firefight for the first time and we were driving around in a warthog.He was gunning.

We were circling some enemies and he said;hey,i just noticed this game has auto aim,i don't like it.

Maybe the auto aim makes your subconcious believe it will do the work for you,and somethimes it doesn't.

WHAMMIE!!

the auto-aim is really annoying in firefight, let's say you're aiming at a far away grunt with the auto-mag and a chopper drives past your screen, the cross-hair will stick to the chopper and move slightly. It's very noticeable.

Bring Forth; the Banhammer

Where's my Mythic Member Status Bungie, eh?

The Auto-Aim in ODST is huge compared to Halo 3, it's worse than the Halo 2 auto-aim.

I don't know what you are talking about when you said CoD felt more natural. That game has more auto-aim than any game I have ever played.

ya COD has auto-aim up to the eye-balls. When i started playing COD 5 online, i would pick the bolt-action rifle, thinking realistically it would be the most effective, but while you aim people carefully people just strafe with machine guns, hold the trigger and let the game do all the work (you can clearly see it in the kill-cam). It's really dumb.

COD hardcore playlists are good though (too bad you have to play for ages to unlock it and it still has the stupid dogs- like, imagine if in halo, when you got a killing frenzy you would get a swarm of buggers- that instant kill you- to help you for about a minute, people would go insane, yet they have that -blam!- in COD and it's acceptable. ridiculous.)

The CoD i play is Modern warfare(4) if it makes a diffrence.
I never noticed the auto aim that much in CoD.
The auto aim feels better in CoD IMO.

Which auto aim do you guys prefer?

(BTW i agree with the whole kill strak benefit thing.
IMO its bat--blam!- retarded helping a player that is already doing superbly well.)
