Causing mischief from the shadows
Posted by: the pib
As someone who likes to play both the new Anniversary playlists and the old playlists, I'm getting really thrown off by the different rules for basic Reach, TU Reach, and Anniversary.
Does the Magnum take 5, 4, or 3 shots to kill? Is my bloom 100%, 85%, or 0? How high am I going to jump, how fast am I going to fall, will my melee bleed through or not? Having to get out of "the zone" to think about it for a split second kills!
Basically, I wish they'd make all of Reach only TU and Anniversary, and keep each format in their own playlist so you could keep playing just one and not be forced by a vote to switch to the other.
Agreed.
Bungie tried this, they created classic playlists and old school playlists trying to please everyone but they just added more clutter.
There shouldn't be 3 different rule sets for a game. It's a product of trying to please the community. They need to implement the TU and commit to it. Once they impliment it they need to make those rules carry over to slayer and ALL the gametypes.
If they don't, there's no telling where it will end. It'll be like, you you want to vote for
* Classic slayer 85% bloom, no fall damage, bleed through, gimped camo, double jump height and two scoops of sugar
or
* New Classic slayer with 87% bloom, double fall damage, no AL, double bleed through with low fat milk
