Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

I hardly remember the beta these days. I do remember a lot of Powerhouse and Headhunter though. Anyways I also recall a lot of threads about the DMR and how it shouldn't of been changed when the final game came out. I know that the ammo capacity/magazine was changed from 12 to 15, but was there a noticeable bloom difference between both versions of the DMR as well?

Thanks.

I think the DMR's original bloom was what came to be 100% bloom in the final game. I don't recall the beta having a substantial reduction to what we received on launch day.

The DMR's Beta bloom is the final game's 100% bloom.
Only the Magnum was tweaked as far as bloom is concerned.

what I don't get is people say the hate reach but like the beta or reach when the beta had all the stuff reach has now. Bloom was just a topic on the forums to troll people. no one cared about bloom when the game first came out. It was mostly Armor lock that people hate. And I'm not gonna like Zero bloom on a DMR And pistol is really overpowered and more easy to use.

Apparently the bloom was exactly the same

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

DMR's bloom in the Beta is the same as the lolvanilla bloom on the DMR.

I hate both, I stopped playing the beta 10 days before it ended because of how terrible it was. And holy hell you're an idiot.

Only if you have thumbs.
For those lacking them, no bloom makes it harder.

Doesn't look like it changed.
