Halo fan since 1999 MacWorld Trailer

First off, forgive me I've been away from the Halo community for a few months now, so I haven't been keeping up with the news, or playing games.

But I did recently get myself a copy of anniversary. I knew there was no original online multiplayer included (though I did secretly hope for the original multiplayer for at least offline play), anyway, I figured I'd at least enjoy some updated Reach multiplayer, despite it plagued with melee lunge, I was excited for perhaps a closer feel to the original with bloom free weapons. Apparently not.

What am I missing here? I tried anniversary squad, but it still had bloom, so I figured at least anniversary classic, with it's little description telling me to be the Pistol, would contain no bloom.

Am I wrong about something here, the bloom cross hair animations are still there, and I attempted to test the pistol, but due to a mysterious lack of bullet holes, it was a bit difficult.

Would someone care to update me as to what is going on? There's no bloom free gameplay?

The pistol is 3shot.

DMR is 85% bloom.


There is more but I can't remember.

Now, is this a global update, or just classic playlist?

That's it? Don't get me wrong I love a bit of MLG now and then, but it's missing that special something that makes Halo, Halo. Too formal, or something like that, not to mention the chrome maps. Not starting a debate on that however, but is MLG honestly the only way we get to play with no Bloom?

I would think that 343i would make a playlist with zero bloom since that's what every one wanted and they even had it in the TU beta playlist. I'm on the same boat as you though I've got no clue what playlists have zero bloom or if they even do, I just know MLG is starting on the 1st to not have it.

Do yourself a favour and accept the reality.
I'm disappointed too but no amount of complaining will help.
