These changes are only in the TU beta playlist and thank god. Armor Lock nerf is the only thing 343 -blam!- up on. Armor Lock is now completly usless and its purpose no longer exsists. Especially with the concussion rifle I mean it already knocks people in the air preventing Armor Lock in the first place but now it just goes right through armor lock. Armor Lock was fine but now its just pointless. I will stick with the original Armor Lock.

Before it was a skill-less crutch for bad players, now it takes some strategy to use!
It was WAY to overpowered before.

Indeed oceano, i just dislike armour lock. But at least it's now easily counter able.

If the updates are not put across the ENTIRE game, then you can not call it a TITLE update.

If the updates are not put across the entire game of Reach, people will be dropping like flies.

Hell, they already are. GoW3, BF3, Forza 4, CoD MW3 (soon it hit) have been taking over. Reach is just the laughing stock of video games right now.

I mean, if FIFA is popular than a Halo game... Bungie clearly went the wrong way with Reach.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

Looks much better.

The sooner they finalise their updated gametypes and roll them out across the board that happier I'll be.

Agreed. I hope Reach also gets a -15% reduction on bloom globally.

They really should just nerf it back to the pre-beta version.

You use it, it lasts 3 seconds, makes you invulnerable to everything, no emp, you come out, have a long recharge rate so you can't spam. Simple.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

That looks pretty sweet. Shame the playlist has no population. I blame objective gametypes and the ridiculous amount of quitters. Anyhow, I like the shotgun's effectiveness on it. I tried that in the TU Beta before and all I got was an empty shotgun lol (that's what I get for experimenting on the fly)

Note: I am an armor lock supporter, and I support these changes - this just makes skilled use more important. It will bring out armor lock's real potential. It's still a powerful ability, now more so when in the right hands. I hope the "denoobification" factor will be high enough to entice some of the haters over to trying it. It would be nice to see it used in a reasonably competitive setting without people viewing it with distaste.

Not really much done..


you kidding?
with the old armor lock you could take a rocket, pop right back up and take another rocket.

with this, one would be your limit.
the second rocket would kill you.

big difference in my mind.


You call that a big differance. I don't if anything its minor tweaks like the rest of the t.U except the removal of bloom and 85% bloom.

agreed, that makes it not overpowered and still keeps it's original purpose, to make you INVINCIBLE for a short period of time.

I still don't understand why 343i wants to keep AL in the game, it should be removed from all game-types but BTB, Invasion and Firefight.

Seriously... Nerfed or not, it should be taken out ASAP.

To be honest if you're stupid enough to punch AL. You should get pwnd.

  • 11.02.2011 1:19 PM PDT

It still doesn't make it any less annoying. No matter what it will always be a delay the inevitable button.

If it's only in a certain playlist, what's the point? 343i needed the balls to make AL and active camo changes default across the board.

Hi.

And yet, Reach will still suck. Great idea, though.

+1, 343

  • 11.02.2011 1:41 PM PDT

I'm so happy all you cry babies got what you wanted. I almost never use AL myself and really don't care about the people that do. It's amazing to me that it has become such an issue for people. Especially since most of you who complain don't suck at Halo so I don't get it.

Remember this is only happening because 343 incorrectly believes that they need the support of this community for the future of Halo to be successful. I say incorrectly because this community represents a maximum of 10% of the Halo XBL community. It's most likely closer to around 3-5%. Still, 343 doesn't want Bungie.net to be flooded with negative posts about them so they gave you something you asked Santa for.

Why cause people kept standing against the guy in armor lock getting their shields popped? Stand a few feet away throw a well timed grenade use teamwork.


Yeah, because that's what everyone was doing.

You're not as smart as you seem to think you are, kid.

  • 11.02.2011 4:18 PM PDT

congratulations 343i, you now broke armour lock.
