I did some test on some servers. A simple test :
stand still, aim with your pistol and scope a spot start shooting with 1 second time frame between the shots.
In halo ce, all bullets come almost at the same spot. in halo the bullets scatter around in a circular radius larger then masterchiefs head.

Do the same, but this time no delay between firing of bullets.
Same outcome. Haloce : nearly same spot. Halo scatter radius bigger then masterchiefs head.

Tried this on different servers, with 0 people and servers occupied.
low ping servers high ping servers.


Hallo ce i actually hit what i aim for.
And with halo i lead, i shoot, i hit but it makes no difference.
Most of the time i hit people with a 3xheadshot but no killcount.
The server decided that i did not hit that person.
I tested this with a pistol.

Halo ce is what halo was supposed to be.

Halo stinks

Halo Ce definitly does not.


I have no software running in the background except firewallsoftware.
And i have already established that the firewall is not the problem.
All eyecandy and all earcandy in settings on and to the max.
Machine is fast enough, fps minimal around 71 fps and maximal on 278 fps.
average is 110 fps with vsync off @1024x768
Tried vsync on too, no difference.
Tried 30fps, no difference.

I think you just need to learn how to lead your shots properly. I didnt know about the pistol thing, but i would play CE a lot more if more people would play and/or set up dedicated servers. If somebody actually reads this, then maybe they will get CE...... anyway halo does NOT stink, in my opinion CE is NOT better, and I hope Master Kim will come along and do a big long speech about why halo is better. Lol Master Kim it seems like i mention you in all of my posts now =P.

Halo CE still sucks when it comes to netcode, especially when your in a hog or ghost etc.

But yeah, everyone knows CE is just better anyway, for a start you got the ability to add any custom map.

But because bungie simply dont care about Halo, they didnt help with CE (or at least promoting it much) so therefore it didnt take off.

In my opinion, halo CE died a long time ago, its now only useful for arranged matches.

@ someguy

I know how to lead, but i will give you an example.

I know that i have too shoot left of a person when there is a great distance between us and that person is moving left.

But...

You can try for fun the trial and error method.
You lead, you shoot. no effect so you move your aim and you lead and shoot again.
You hit. your adversary is moving in the same direction again. You lead, you shoot and you miss.
you aim again and what do you know, you have to aim and lead at another spot.

Test this with some friends, let them stand still , move left right left right.
and front back front back.
and circular motion.

I noticed that you cannot aim at one and the same spot through experience with halo for that same person on the same server with same ping and the same amount of players and the same players.

If you can, there must be some hardware that halo is allergic too and i must have that hardware then.

Both are fine. Halo is what Halo is meant to be because its Halo. Halo CE is what we want Halo to be. If you dont like one dont play on it.

Sorry if I offended you by saying that, but that has never happended to me. I find a sweet spot and just always use that spot again, and I use a wireless router on a laptop. So, yeah, I guess your computer is allergic to Halo.
