LONG LIVED METAL

I've noticed a lot of people talking about how the no-bloom playlists will take much less skill than the default playlists. Where these people got the idea that shooting slowly was the epitome of all skill


I guess the inclusion of bloom will change the way people play halo dramatically.

As long as they keep it in seperate playlists I wont mind because a change like this is either loved or hated by the majority of people and therefore splits the community.

In my opinion removing bloom changes the game in the same way removing the radar or removing the shield does because kill times are increased to the point where you need to be much more careful about cover and awareness.

Depending on how you want to play this is not necessarily a good thing.

If you dont agree then fair enough but at least give me reasoning as I have given you

apparently all MLG changes make this game more skillful, yet in a default playlist (ie slayer) a MLG lover may suck meaning they have less skill in this playlist (I could name people as examples here so it is not an analogy).

same can be said about bloom

Anyone who plays MLG seriously can destroy anyone else in default playlists, which is why they play MLG in the first place - they want a more competitive environment where luck is not a factor, and they want more of a challenge from beating up on terrible kids who run around like brainless retards in Squad Slayer.
