Subject: Who invented the JetPack?

I hope that the small fraction of the Bungie team that thought it'd be a good idea, lose their jobs and are never able to find another one in the gaming industry.
Evidently, they are a big threat to games.

Another reasonable point of view:
I disagree. Jet pack was a good idea, but only for casual game modes and playlists. It's fun to just mess around with a jet pack.

But, the person who had it put into Arena should be lynched.

Not when it's a 4v4 and all the other team is using jetpacks. It's such a dumb game mechanic. I think it's by far the worst game mechanic. It makes Halo turn into CoD gameplay style.

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.

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.

I hear James Bond is a pretty big fan.

Onion Invasion was on the spot randomness that I entered when I first got xbox live. I have changed my GT once.

If I go of topic, It's known as Whitchering

I have never heard anybody ask for a jetpack. You could jump high enough already.

When it was added into Reach, it was implemented poorly. Although it is terrible in default, it can be used properly when the maps cant be broken.

Jetpack:
"Oh no, I can't shoot the giant target floating in the air with absolutely no way to defend himself!"

Armour Lock:
"Oh no, I can't shoot the giant target sitting perfectly still on the ground with absolutely no way to defend himself in 3 seconds!"

Try to understand, even remotely, how Halo works and then you'll realize why AA's break the game.

That makes absolutely no sense. Flying people is closer to Halo than CoD. Look at jump height. Herp Derp.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

I think the person you want to lynch is H. G. Wells, if you're looking for the inventor of the jetpack. Or at least one of his contemporaries. Or if you want somebody who actually tried to build one, feel free to go kick some German ass back in WWII. Also, you guys need to chill the -blam!- out. Jetpack is a fine addition to Halo, in controlled doses. It was the saturation of the same screwy loadouts in virtually every corner of the game that made AL and Jetpack so frustrating. And it's pretty obvious MS/343 had a hand in that, evidently setting the stage for Halo 4 (aka Halo of Duty; Red vs. Blue Ops).

Who ever thought sprint was a good idea for a Halo game should also be fired with no benefits or severance package.

/guy makes the assumption that the people who said one thing in the past are the same people who said a contradictory thing in the future.

/guy 2 who mocks guy 1 feels like he has accomplished an irrefutable logic.

/guy 2 faps to the display of greater intellect.

I swear. It's a no brainer.
There' two things that the MW2 and Reach staff have in common:
They were sabotaged by a group of apes who made the Jetpack and the nuke.
