Subject: How is the population for H2 V?

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Yeah, shots never hit with MK but they do with a troller in H2V. And this is, what, a PC game?

Hey, I'm TetriS/r4v3n/Ryx. I've been modding Halo 1 pc since late 2008-2009, and playing Halo 2 Vista since summer of 2010. If you need any help with Halo 1 modding, just ask; I haven't modded in a while but I remember most of it.

I'm always up for a h2v game; message i4Ni TetriS and I'll get back to you.

Original Halo is trash because of the lag issues, and the sniper is annoying and randomly awards headshots.

H2V wouldn't be dead if Microsoft had done -blam!- about the troller overpowering, and actually cared. And it has the online campaign now.

The online campaign was a mod that was sadly never finished due to complications as far as i know. Whilst nice, i could only get the arby levels to work using it. As for h2v...biggest issue i had was the lack of a tag editor. And the troller of course

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Actually, the H1 sniper is the most consistent iteration of the weapon across all Halo games. You're the one who's trash if you can't take a couple seconds out of the beginning of your first fight and find your lead.

But of course, considering you're terribad, I can see why you'd like H2 over H1. Go with the one that takes no skill to play at all, and you can at least pretend to be good.

Oh my God... have you ever played modern warfare 2? Living under a rock I guess. Every second player is a sniper, even on small maps and the unrealistic "quick scoping" bs makes it even worse. In halo PC, only 2/3 people at a time will have the S2 AM, making it more realistic and fairer for all. Plus snipers are expensive, specialized weapons; they cost a fair more to make than standard issues, hence increasing realism.

Oh, "random" headshots you say? :P

Takes no skill? The only "skill" you speak of is leading. Gratz on being able to *try* predicting where your opponent will move.

And FYI, I modded and played H1pc from 2008-2010. I know what h1 is like, and h2v is much better.

I've been playing Halo PC for 7 years and I know for a fact that it's more than trying. It's annoying as -blam!- at first, but, you just have to measure your lead. Don't take this personally, I'm not aiming this at you, but, it's a matter of IQ. Being able to do the math in your head without truly thinking about it while under pressure.

Halo 3

Dusk, do you think that Halo 3 takes no skill?

Maybe slightly more skill-based than H2, thanks to a reduction in melee lunge distance and aim assist, but still not a viable competitive game. Same with Reach.

Tetris, I invite you to explain how Halo 2 is a) more skill-based than H1, and b) a better game overall. Go ahead and give us some comedy. We're a little short on laughs on this board.

Same with Reach.


Wat

Play a Reach Classic LAN and repeat that. Please.

lol, I wouldn't push DusK for an argument; he usually wins even if he is wrong :P

Probably won't, but the answers to the following questions proves my point.

1. Is there melee lunge in Reach over LAN?
2. Is there aim assist in Reach over LAN?
3. Is there stronger bullet magnetism in Reach over LAN than there was in Halo CE?

There's no sense in having me repeat something that we both know is true. Unlike you, I don't feel like lying to myself.

Oh, I saw the last post similer to this got locked. Can we keep on topic?

Can you explain this. I'd love an explanation to your mathematical approach to shooting a guy with a mouse/keyboard. Doing trig in your head? lmao .__. sorry this is your first irrational post that I think is ridiculous. It only takes practice, like any other game


Also I agree with tetris. There's no such thing as a fps that takes no skill. Just plain hating against halo 2 its ridiculous. And Halo 3? Why do you think MLG became so popular when Halo 2 came out?

Syx is right there, though. That's why H2 players hate HPC; Leading, though an unintentional game mechanic, creates a sort of intelligence gap in the player base. The smart come out on top, and the dumb lose and run back to H2V with their tails tucked firmly between their pasty white legs. A prime example of this was when I played you, Ben. Remember how you couldn't even get my shields to flare and I killed you over and over again? Intelligence gap. :)

ROFL

MLG is a complete joke. The fact that you take it seriously, as well as your most recent post in this thread, says the same about you.

And after destroying you on the forum, destroying you in-game, then destroying you on the forum some more, the joke has run its course.

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.

I'd call the argument between Ben and DusK more of a debate in which each commit cheap shots every other post. I don't think there's much winning and losing involved in the argument. Thus it is more of a debate. A debate about whether or not H2V is developed well.

I guess you could say both Ben and DusK are being ignorant when they make degrading comments about each other even though they probably have never met.

Honestly I think H2V was poorly manufactured and has issues. Microsoft hasn't released an update to resolve H2V's issues for a good long while. So I have come to the conclusion, naturally, that Microsoft is neglecting to actively support H2V because the game is flawed beyond redemption. I mean Microsoft hasn't said otherwise. Has it?

I meet the requirements for H2V fine but the frame rate is choppy for me.

As for the population of H2V I wouldn't know because I don't play it anymore.

You don't have to meet someone in person to know what they're like.

Stop running your mouth and dismissing things that I (as well as others) say which are strict facts about gaming. Although most of the PC forum-goers here are on your side, you can find posts here and there (including this thread) that hint their distaste for things that you say and that they clearly disagree on. You are arrogant and childish with your words and decisions. Others know it, but you won't. Call me a hypocrite, but that's most likely what i'll get as a response since most of the people here are against me anyways. Anyways, They want to stay on your good side, however, because they don't want to be in my position where they'll receive nonstop trolling as well as the fact that w.e they say in rebuttal, nothing will ever get you to stfu, even when you're wrong- like you've been countless times (as quoted by some other dude above). "Halo 3 is't viable to be competitive". When does it end, dusk?

Also, I recall popping your shields practically every fight; not to mention each skirmish dragged on for 3 minutes straight. It's called having practice, not intelligence. In regards to leading your shots, I believe the correct term is adaption, since Halo PC is unique with its net code and all ; but you can read that up on your own, and try to distinguish it from "intelligence". Like I said earlier in another thread, you're full of irony. Lying....intelligence.....stupidity. Ur so full of -blam!- and you don't even know it.

Woooooah, hold on, this is not me comparing Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo 2. If you've ever been taught about subconscious Mathmatics in association with targeting projectiles in the human mind, you'd know that within the human brain there is an instinct (From when humans were primarily hunters) that allows for complicated math to be done subconsciously. When you throw a baseball your mind has to go through the variables in calculating things such as wind speed, distance, and gravity. You might not know it, but it's all there. With practice you become better with it. This all applies to Halo PC's leading. You have to get used to it. Adjust yourself to it.

It's nothing irrational, it's Neuroscience and Mathmatics.

Yeah, that's what practice does, dude. It basically hones all of that "subconscious mathematics" stuff that you're talking about. It's like playing any sport. Practice and adaption are applicable to anything.
