Case and point. Look at this picture.

Now you would think I would kill both blues, correct?

Nope. Kill one blue (his teammate lives), and betray my teammate who is BELOW the platform and (what should be) completely out of the splash damage area.

This screenshot shows he was underneath the platform. Since when can the force of a rocket go through map geometry like that?

When you need someone who is at least half-decent at Halo, I'm your guy.

Bungie either accidentally..
or divided by zero.

I've always known it was bad, but it never occurred how bad it was until this happened.

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

Rockets are used in MLG so they are therefore perfect and pro.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Rockets were perfect in Halo 3. They required about as much aim as the Reach sniper.

Usually, yes. Sometimes the netcode/lag has other ideas. The usability depended on the host.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.
