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.

Everything you noobs can't use and get killed with is op. Shut up and stop trolling.

I will be the first Combat Evolved player to admit that the Magnum was OP on the original game, but, due to Halo PC's netcode that problem is fixed. Takes a lot of skill to actually pull off with having to lead your shots. Only good players can ever get a 3sk with it.

I do respect exactly what you're trying to do though, OP. Bringing forth the problem that every game (specifically in the Halo series) had its faults and it's not right to treat any of the games as though they were absolutely perfect. Enjoy each game for what it gave you, and if you don't enjoy it, that's fine. Other people enjoy it for whatever their reasons may be, but, that doesn't effect you in the least. If someone is eating something you think tastes like crap and they enjoy it, why argue with them about how bad it tastes? You obviously have a different taste, leave it up to them to decide what they like.

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

To be fair the Halo 2 BR was just as OP with the deadly button glitches.

Wow TetriS, what was that about? The dude has a fair point; I hope you haven't been diagnosed with DusKitous!

Add me to your friends list if you haven't already. It's a lot more fun to play with people from The Maw and people I know than random noobs.

Oh man, those were the days. The whole doubleshot and BXR controversy was probably my favorite memory playing xbox live.

What's doubleshot?
You can stop that now. Stop posting like you're funny.

Your lack of humour makes me laugh.

They're correct. TS is just pretending to be dumb.

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.

But he didn't post anything intelligent at all. You'd be a terrible doctor.

So lemme get this straight, Mr. Otter. The rocket launcher requires minimal aim to get an easy one shot kill, the FRG takes about the same amount of skill given the use of two or three trigger pulls, the flamethrower is pretty much "aim in the guy's general direction and hold the trigger", and you feel the need to complain about a weapon you actually have to aim and time shots with to get your kills?

Something smells fishy...

I like the fact that the pistol is overpowered. Just cause it takes shields down easier than other weapons doesn't mean it doesn't take a serious amount of skill.

The pistol definitely takes skill to use. The skills required to use the pistol can be learned though.

The point I'm making is that, unlike those other guns, the pistol is only "OP" in the hands of someone that's good. If you suck with it, you won't be winning pistol battles, and you'll show up on the forums complaining about it.

What? What's a BR, has Bungie already announced Halo 2?

Still think I was wrong to say he was trolling, Syx?

I never said he wasn't trolling, so, nope. xD I do agree with the Pistol being over-powered without Halo PC's netcode. He has a valid point, it's just that he's trolling with his point instead of trying to make an intelligent conversation about it.

@DusK: Other weapons in the game being over-powered isn't a very good argument to use when defending another weapon's amount of balance in the game, though I do get your point. The flamethrower is most definitely the most OP weapon in all of Halo. Only way it could be worse is if it could shot at long range.

I go with the same sort of logic with the OP H2 BR Button Glitches. It does take skill to really pull off a button glitch while also aiming at someone's head, even with Halo 2's larger than life hitboxes.

By the way, when I talk about the the H2 Button Glitches with the BR there, I mean Double Shots/Quad-Shots. The BxR is easy to pull off, but, so is the Pistol shot to "BLB" Button Glitch on Combat Evolved. (BxR is much easier, just saying that glitch isn't really that hard and is very similar.)

Oh god, just imagine Halo 1's pistol; with a fixed netcode! Everyone would use it, all the time, even BR kiddies, shields would be useless... Heck, think of the sniper! The skill gap would be shortened, more farer for new players unaccustomed to the awful lag.

Reminds me of, what is it... "democracy"? Ah yes, democracy. Oh well, dictatorship rulez.
