You can't spell GARBAGE without AR.
While I don't like bloom, I didn't want it to be removed, just changed. I thought the bloom was fine with the pistol and Needle Rifle; you knew when spamming or pacing was effective with those weapons.
The DMR on the other hand needed revisions; The line between spamming and pacing is ambiguous; sometimes spamming works and doesn't work in close and med. range. What I wanted was the bloom on the DMR reticule to expand much further with each shot, but for the reticule to retract at an exponential pace. This will punish spammers much more and those who pace will be paid dividends.
I also dislike most of what 343 is planning to do. The DMR should not retain it's 5sk at long range with no bloom; not only will it be obviously OP, but it will most likely upset the whole balance of weapons; not that they were perfect in the first place. I do like the AL nerf though. What I don't like was damage bleed through; remember the old Halo 3 days of 6 AR rounds and a melee for a kill?
And for those who want to attack my stats to disagree, I don't use the DMR much but instead use the pistol in it's place instead. (The bloom on that is much greater among other things) If you do use my stats against me, not only are a dick, you are also committing a fallacy of ad hominem; where one attacks the person instead of refuting their ideas. (Common in politics.)
