1. It was Supposedly noobified, this is not true, if it was noobified there would be no modders, cheaters or standbyers, because then they could easily accend to high levels without buying a modder chip, to me more cheaters = more played game.
It's noobified because anyone can be good with any weapon. I was seriously able to go on a running riot in h2 the day I got it, and in Halo 1 was never able to.
2. "the pistol sucks". wah all you Halo 2 haters just hate Halo 2 because it didnt have the pistol, which, if it was put into halo 2, then people would pass up the rocket launcher and sword, just because they start with the pistol, which is the easiest way to kill someone, BOOM BOOM BOOM! dead, with 3 shots, that penetrated through titanium, energy shield, and steriod using super humans. Halo 2 would be a hell of a lot worst had it had the pistol. you all would be called "pistol whores" believe it or not. compared to it, no other weapons in the game exist.
Halo 2 isn't bad because the pistol is gone, it's bad because it's completely imbalanced. TSKs aren't exactly easy, either. Unlike H2 weapons, the bullets don't go to the direct center of the crosshair. H2 is also imbalanced because of things such as the PP+BR combo, the energy sword, and pretty much every other power weapon.
3. "it sucks cause it left me with a cliffhanger..." now this one is just stupid, of course it did, every successful sequal to a movie/game will always have a cliffhanger, yet u all -blam!- about this one. get over it.
Nobody really cares about campaign, at least I don't anyway.
4. "sword ruins the game" another dumb one, you all say this because u lack the skill to use it or easily r owned with it. do the following
1. duel wield two weapons
2. crouch walk
3. WATCH UR MOTHER -blam!-EN MOTION TRACKER, THATS WHY ITS THERE!
Umm, using the word Sword and Skill in the same sentence is extremely far from being right. The sword takes NO SKILL WHATSOEVER to use. Dual wielding weapons to beat it? Well when you're not host on Live you have a huge disadvantage. Crouch walk, yes because it's so much harder to sword a kid who is crouched down. And the motion tracker is there, but it's not exactly easy to watch as a guy with a sword crouch walks behind you and kills you.
5. "sniping is too easy..." i might have to agree with you on that one BUT, theres an easy way to counter it, stay under cover, and dont run right at him, guns a blazing.
It IS easy, and even if you do hide behind a rock, you can show the smallest portion of your body, and you'd be able to be shot no matter what.
6. "matchmaking sucks..." downright lie
Spawning with a weapon that goes no farther than 10 feet in a game for the rush for the power weapons is fun? Yeah that sounds about right. Let me just shoot this guy on the ascension sniper tower from the other side of the map and kill him, WHOOPS I GOT SNIPES.
You guys can flame me all you want, because frankly, i wont be checking this thread again, so you'll be wasting ur time. you guys -blam!- about it in our forums, so im -blam!-ing about you -blam!-ing in our forums,
Halo 2 > Halo 1
You only DON'T like Halo 1 because you're bad at it, simple as that.
