The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Poll: Which is worse, Jetpack or AL?  [closed]
Jetpack:  21%
(24 Votes)
Armor Lock:  43%
(49 Votes)
They both suck equally:  22%
(25 Votes)
They're both fine (picking this means you're bad):  13%
(15 Votes)
Total Votes: 113

These two Armor Abilities seem to be the two most-disliked AAs in Reach, and both for very good reasons.

Which one do you think is worse, and why?

I feel that AL is more commonly used, and that any use of it by both good and bad players is incredibly annoying. However, Jetpack is abused for better results in higher-level gameplay.

AL, im not sure why everyone hates jetpacks so much, fair enough when they just jetpack straight up but any other time, i dont get why

Hi.

Fundamentally, Jetpack.

AL annoys the -blam!- out of me, though.

Jetpack breaks all the maps and is especially retarded on reflection.

Reflection. Red team grabs Rockets, jetpacks up to Sniper spawn, and has two power weapons and the high ground in ten seconds.

Kingdom (or any Forge World map really). Jetpackers go up to the rooftops, sit in the soft kill zone until their shields come back COMPLETELY safe from almost all damage from everyone without a jetpack, and then comes down with full shields, first shot AND the height advantage.

Only the retarded kids jetpack straight up into the air and get shot down immediately.

That's why Jetpack is hated.

Not being bothered by it and thinking that they do not hurt normal Halo gameplay are two different stances.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

Armor Lock because any thumbless retard can use it. There is some degree of knowledge required to abuse the -blam!- out of Jetpack.

If you have to use labels like 'Retarded' to describe anyone who disagrees with you, Then your arguement has lost any weight it might of had, and I personally will assume you are just trying to get a rise out of people.

Also to those who think that having a high KDR means you're beast; just the fact that boosters exist is a prime reason that any thumbless noob can achieve it throwing the 'my high KDR validates my opinion" logic out the window.

I'll go ahead and assume the 'picking this means your bad' under 'they're both fine' is just a means to get a rise out of people, and will from hence forth assume that's your only goal with threads like this.

Have a good day sir.

OP is retarded because of the last option, they are both fine, I don't use either one, but I can cope with them?


Coping with a problem and understanding that said problem is detrimental to gameplay are two different stances. I and many others have "coped" (adapted) to Jetpack and AL. That doesn't make them not broken.

I want to know what people think is worse out of two terrible options. It's not my fault that only bad and stupid players think that there is nothing wrong with those AAs.

That right there. That's exactly the type of response I expected.

Shoot them out of the goddamn sky. They fly straight upward, basically making them a hovering target. It's not difficult to aim upward and pull the right trigger, is it?

Again, not my fault that it's the truth.

Show me a good player that thinks both those AAs are fine, and I'll shut up. Too bad there was a 13-page thread that failed to find one.

That isn't how Jetpack is abused, that's how bad players think to use Jetpack.

There's a major difference.

  • 02.26.2012 2:22 PM PDT

Both are annoying but Jetpackers (good ones) are infintely more annoying, especially on multi-tiered maps like high noon, sword base or reflection.
