I would prefer sprint, no bloom, no bleedthrough. I like the shield gameplay in Reach, but no bloom doesn't hurt the game in any way.

No bloom, bleedthrough, no sprint. Just amp up the movement speed (obviously) and make AA's pick ups if necessary.

Honestly, this is a good cover up for all the idiots who won't know its a cover up .

MLG is for badkids.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

No bloom, sprint, no bleed-through. I like every aspect of MLG gameplay except for bloom. Bleed-through makes it harder to judge how vulnerable you are. I imagine this is something that can be learned, but I actually think the default shielding system (at least, as it pertains to bullets) works well. It's one of the few things I like about Reach.

I have to agree with you two.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

What would I like the most? for MLG to not exist.

Not sure why you even bothered with keeping bloom options.


No Bloom, No Sprint, Bleed through.

Just do what I do when I have a problem... SCREAM!

The Banhammer hurts less and less w/ each crushing blow.

Then it doesn't concern you. Please leave.

With the maps we have now, no bloom, bleedthrough, and sprint. I only vote for sprint b/c the current maps just don't play well without it. Also: with the unaltered shield recharge rate, you'll basically get melted at every turn if the other team has a good setup going and you'll have no way to break it on certain maps.

tl;dr the settings need a bit more work, but bloom can certainly go and I'm very happy with the re-implementation of bleed-through to Halo.

THATS MY COOL MAN I CAN'T TAKE IT OFF!

120 speed, zero bloom, bleed-through, no sprint, 4SK DMR, decreased power weapon timers.

Which maps are you talking about? Countdown is better than it's ever been with no bloom and no sprint. Sanctuary was on the circuit in Halo 2 with no sprint. Zealot might be affected, but I think we should drop that map anyway, if we're going to use the CEA maps.

R.I.P. Halo 2 <33333333
Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

No bloom, No sprint, No bleedthrough for me personally.

lol Why? MLG brings players, viewers, and population to the game. Very little does that for Halo anymore.

Yes, some of the pop are stuck up asshats, but those people would be jerks either way. The positive media in Reach is welcome in my opinion.

This. I've never really minded Sprint before, but playing MLG without it opened my eyes. It's still a crutch like all the other AA's that aren't map pickups. Without sprint, you can't overextend yourself and expect to have a chance to get away with it. Bad plays are punished when you remove AA's.

I prefer sprint because, as mentioned in a prior post, it works with the maps that are in the playlist. No sprint does not work that well on most of the maps because of geometry.

Sprint can be used in a positive way though. It is not always used to run away. It can be used to gain map control, flag run and assist your team.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.
