Aslong as there is trueskill levels, there will always be skill.

I'm out.

Halo 2 required more skill than Halo 3, but saying Halo 3 takes no skill is false.

This.

Certain gametypes in Halo 3 take no skill (see: Grifball, SWAT), but overall, it's a skill based game.

Ah, but your discrimination indicates that there is something you have and he does not- that sounds like an admission of the existence of skill in Halo 3 to me.

Both Halo's (2 and 3) required some skill, mostly in useing the Battle Rifle.

Um, yes. I never said it didn't. Granted, Halo 2 took more skill than Halo 3, but Halo 3 still requires a level of competence.

So the best player in Halo 3 and the worst player of Halo 3 are the equally matched???... imo the mechanics of H3 and H2 are very similar

Aim near the head
Pull trigger a few times
Look at your new point


that doesn't seem horribly skilled...
Who the hell aims directly at the head? Shooting at the shoulder neck region is much more accurate.

Or you could always just put three body shots, and then finish it off with a shot to the head.

Besides, if you face half decent people, you're going to need to know how to teamshot and strafe.

That's why your K/D is 0.85 and your highest skill is 34, you don't know anything about skill because I'm guessing your not good at any other games either.

Halo 2 was way better than Halo 3, Halo: Reach is the worst Halo yet.Halo: Reach is the biggest gimmicky joke I've seen in a while, you people on these forums are blind and have no idea about video marketing and why Halo: Reach will suck.

They made the game easier for you bad payers so everybody can play it including you, therefor making sell more.

ya. no. halo 3 actually takes skill. Do you know how many 50s are traded a day because the buyers suck so hard? I would have my 50 by now but no, i still try. and you're a brig grade 2 with only 1 perfection (in social lol) no special kill frenzies, a social K/D barely over one, and a ranked K/D less than one. So don't say thst Halo 3 "takes NO skill". since you clearly need some.
As for Halo 2, That game did take skill. So one up there.

Individually, there's a very, very small skill gap. Weapons like the AR and Shotgun can be mastered within a month of playing. Weapons like the BR and Carbine take a little longer, but are still easy to be competent with. Same case with the Beam and Sniper Rifle, although the quickshot capability of the Beam Rifle knocks the skill requirement just a tad below that of the human sniper.

When you get to strategy, that's where the skill gap truly comes into play. I can easily out-strategize most players, but there are a crapload of people who can do the same thing to me.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

And to fix your statement

Halo 3 requires LESS skill then Halo 2 did.
