Halo: Reach is the beginning of a new age for gaming.
It proves that developers can get away with punishing their players instead of fixing their game....and yet the fanboys will still sing praises to them.
-blam!- all of you fanboys!
WWII
Axis of Evil = Quality
Who lost?
Was it America with all the cannon fodder it threw at the beaches?
We won simply because of the fact that....
Quantity > Quality.
Spam Beats pacing. Why? Because if a bullet hits, it hits. Just cause you pace your shots doesn't automatically make your shots more powerful.
And that's where I think the problem really is, somewhere in your twisted logic you honestly think that the smaller the reticule is, the more damage the bullet is supposed to do....Right? WRONG!
That spammer even at wide open still has you filling up 85% of the reticule and he is spitting out 2-3 bullets for every 1 bullet you spit out. YOU SHOULD LOSE! for trying to pace.
OR we can continue down the path of -blam!-ing about how bloom, needs to be this accurate at this distance...
This accruate at this pacing and distance...
and so on.
which ...
I can think of a million different ways that we can make bloom if we start thinking about the millions of different opinions on what people personally think it should act like.
Bungie made it their way, and you couldn't adapt to it.
So you -blam!-ed and cried to have them remove it instead.... good job. Way to adapt.
Whatever you do, don't join the army. Because you'll be in for a big surprise when that terrorist goes spraying with his AK and gets a lucky headshot on you before you could ..take your sweet little time to make every shot of yours count.
Why do we even bother making machine guns?
You see how many bullets that Gatling gun shoots out? You ever see how accurate it is? Try facing it down with your bolt action rifle.
Unless your firing from a position of hiding...You're going to lose.
I can bring up even more non-military examples of Quantity > Quality. But I'll let you figure it out for yourself.
Also, nevermind the fact that bloom actually plays such a minor role in battle...
When you consider teammates, shields, Armor Abilities, grenades, other weapons besides the DMR, Vehicles, Tactics.
But the entire success of this game all rode on 1 weapon with bloom....
Get real people.
OH and, btw, learn to hold a discussion without quoting.
I don't need to keep re-reading what I just wrote. If people can't figure out who or what I am responding too. Too -blam!- bad.
