It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

I imagine this is so the wrong fourm for this, too.
If they did such a thing, that would be lame. I'm sure it's not in CE:A. But Reach... come on.

Videogames, Anime, and Interwebz. I love it all!

This belongs in the Reach forum.

I agree that this is what's happening; there is no bloom on the DMR. There is also melee bleed-through now (meaning you can kill someone who still has some shields up).

Not sure if want, not sure if care.

Either Halo CE "rules" gameplay or unfinished build.

The bloom is pretty much necessary for anti-cheapness but I also think bloom is still a good idea and it adds more depth to the gameplay.

Founder of the Brotherhood of Sierra Group and Clan. I tend to remain fairly mature on the forums, but I absolutely hate those who constantly barrage the Reach forum with AL- and Bloom-type threads. Don't play CoD, but I respect it.

If they got rid of any bloom, it's just the visual. Bloom's been in the game since the beginning of the series, yada yada yada, but then Reach came along and changed it. All the people who couldn't make a good shot because the DMR fired once versus the BR's three now complain that bloom is to blame. 343 probably just got tired of hearing about it so they got rid of the visual.
