This was my reaction to when the first gameplay footage of Halo Reach was released.

'DMR w/ bloom will kill this game, Bungie caves into whiny kids complaining about Halo 3.'

Halo reach is absolutely perfect
What about armor lock and the DMR?

But with bloom you can control the randomness and be a more skilled player to take out the player who LoLspams.

Not when bloom rewards spamming.

Bloom doesn't reward spamming. It punishes it. The player who knows how to pace his/her shots is always going to win.

Its like we have the same mind. I agree, the other thing that really grinds my gears is people are gonna be 5 shotting everyone all the time, because of this horrible update people are going to be more scared to fight with their ARs and fist. Way to ruin the game 343i.

I know, right! The worst part is all these idiots who keep saying that now it's about skill and aim. No it's not; it's about who shoots first, and everyone is just going to be spamming all the time because without bloom it's going to be impossible not to hit your target on every shot.

You're the idiot. Taking out bloom which means taking out the randomness does mean it's more about skill and aim. Halo 2 and 3 didn't have bloom and it wasn't just about who shot who first. A more skilled player can beat a lesser skilled player easily even if the lesser skilled player gets a shot or two off first.

You're the idiot! Bloom isn't random; you just need to learn how to pace your shots instead of spamming like some wannabe MLG noob.


I know how to pace my shots but that's not the point. I can pace my shots but if I do that the spammer can still kill me way too often before I even get my 5th shot off. Therefore you're forced to shoot with some bloom in most situations or you will lose to the spammer. So you're forced to deal with some randomness because if you always pace you're shots and wait for the bloom to reset you will still lose to spammers a lot. Taking away randomness is a good thing. If the bloom actually punished spammers more than you're argument might make sense.

You obviously are bad if you think that. Pacing>spamming Fact bungie said so themselves.

I almost fell into the troll trap. You gave it away with the Halo 2/Halo 3 line.

DMR with no bloom: not only does it shoot super fast, but it can cross map. In that video the guy killed someone in like 2 seconds, so whats the point of using anything else? halo 2 and 3 all over again?

Armor lock: armor lock is fine, it is super easy to counter (THROW GRENADE OR WAIT) These changes 343 is doing is just because they listen to whiny kids and not the true fans. Clearly, those who hate things like armor lock cannot adapt and are therefore not fans.

Halo reach does not need a title update.

Blasphemy! reach needs a title update,but not of the anti bloom sort!

That's not how it works. If you know how to pace correctly you will always beat a spammer. Obviously you're just doing it wrong.

If 343 takes way bloom then everyone is just going to be spamming all the time and it's just going to come down to who shoots first because nobody will miss any shots since they wont be punished for spamming any more.

op doesn't know what real Halo is.

No bloom = real Halo.

I might actually play Reach after the TU finally.

Why is hypocrite spelled with an E at the end?
The I in crite is not pronounce as eye.

So, on the one hand I spell it out exactly as it should be.
You follow the standard set before you by fools who can't even get a handle on the rules of their own language.

ITT: Trolled.

Hard.

Keep bloom, make's bad kids know there bad kids.
Fix armor lock. Grenade thing kinda helps but think of a solution so that you cant stay in it full time! Also not get health back after you get out of it. (Ex: *Shot x4 ARMOR LOCK 3... 2... 1... *Headshot *Headshot *Headshot. WTF?!)

Everything else stay the same. I could care less if only 100,000 people are on Reach MAX. I dobut i'm ever gonna play all 100,000 and get recycled and matched with them. No matter how many people are on there's still TONS OF NOOBS.

WHY TU?! WHY?!

? adapt? how can I adapt to unfair/unbalanced gameplay? stop whining about your precious AL and Bloom.
How can it be unbalanced when everyone is given the same options, huh?

lololol BITO you are sooo dumb! rank means nothing in Reach. it just means you play a lot. I barely play. The only reason I'm high rank is due to summer.

What are you talking about. Rank works as a progression of skill. Always has; always will.

This Darknova24 kid can't even tell when he's being blatantly trolled.

LOL

Lemme try.

Bloom is good and AL doesn't slow gameplay down at all. You just have to adapt.
