NO!
Why do you think this? The person with better accuracy wins. Thus, the better at shooting, the most skill, wins

zero bloom actually ENCOURAGES spamming


lol.
No spamming with ZB.


I pull the trigger just as fast, if not faster, with zero bloom, and get kills faster in zero bloom. That's what I'm saying.

bigger skill gap = less fun for the worse players so they stop playing, average players then quit because they are now the worst players and die a lot. outcome we end up with a small boring halo community of elites, fair, yes, boring and repetative, yes.

No.

players who haven't mastered bloom have a big disadvantage. An inferior spammer can get lucky once, but not all the time throughout a game. bloom control is a skill, comparable with situational awareness or calculating where a grenade should go.

However, no bloom is a lot more reliable and stable, which ensures the better team always wins. with balanced out firerates, it is simply more fun to play (not having to worry about pacing)

But it's not because there is no 'randomness' involved that the noobs become noobier and the pros become better. Bloom did not consistently make noobs better and pros worse, because bloom is random (duhh).

both have their way of measuring skill, and they are different, but each's pros and cons leads me to believe there is no difference in the skill gap between the two.

The big difference between bloom and ZB is that with Bloom the player who plays better in a 1v1 kills his opponent most of the time. In ZB the player who plays better in a 1v1 encounter kills his opponent 100% of the time. Bloom introduces unnecessary randomness into the game, which is not how Bungie should have tried to increase the skill gap.

put it this way, I can tell your pro zero bloom.

I really hope English isn't your first language.
