About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.
But really am sweet at heart. =)
Ill be honest, this game pissed me off to the extreme when it came out. I blew good money on the lukewarm map packs and one day said screw it, however, last week I did manage to play some games, just wanted to give my opinion on it as an outsider. As someone who is just coming in new to the game.
1. The TU
I actually really really enjoyed the Title Update playlists. It really DID fix most of the problems by making the DMR and NR more powerful. I never ran into any issues with melee mostly because we were playing Big Team, but I managed to get a Killing Frenzy, something that never happened before the TU, because I would get Armor Locked, or invisi sniped or something.
Armor Abilities are also much more balanced, after playing some TU, I went to a non TU playlist and it was business as usual, spamming, waiting out Armor Lock, and not being able to kill except for grenades.
2. Spawning
Its still pretty -blam!-, and I really wonder why The Cage, And especially Pinnicle, are still in the playlist. All of the forged maps in the game are pretty damn terrible, and with a HUGE base of good forge maps I find it odd that 343 hasn't added more.
3. Player Base
Still obnoxious as -blam!-. I complained about the Warthog being flipped by a few DMR rounds and got a wall of hate from a bunch of 9 year old fanboys.
4. Vehicles
Still hilariously underpowered, a DMR should not be able to flip over a Warthog, or destroy a ghost or revenant. And Armor Lock EMP is still completely obnoxious.
To conclude, after a few updates this game is now playable, but vehicles are woefully underpowered, it makes me sad because that is what Halo is known for: out of control vehicle madness. But oh well. I just hope Halo 4 is better.
