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.
