I will admit, this thread is full of lolz.

Here is my 2 cents on this situation.

Jetpack - Destroys map control, gives users height advantage and the ability to get the drop on someone.

Armour Lock - Grants user invincibility, prolongs time for 6 seconds. Deflects even nukes.

Hologram - Well... nothing.

Sprint - Can escape death itself, sprint makes up for slow movement speed.

Evade - Same as above, but it can be used for some cool ninja-like assassinations.

Active Camo - Gives user 30 seconds of pure invisibility if standing still in a crouch position. Destroys larger maps by granting players the ability to fade out.

Drop Shield - Doesn't work in Objective gametypes, only works well in Invasion.

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.

You said you hate AAs. I can allude that to you being bad because my opinion is pure FACT. Unlike yours.

I like this little "game". Lets keep on playing.


Yeah, except for the fact that good players hate AAs.


No you're wrong good players like AAs.

This is fun. Lets keep on stating "facts" without evidence to back it up.


Hes not trying to assert that these things are facts, They are merely stereotypes that have shown to be true time and time again.

Trust me when I say this, a lot of people said the exact same thing about jetpack until they saw it abused.

I've seen it. Doesn't prevent me from winning, though.


So what causes your terrible win ratio and K/D?

Try again.

All AA's are terrible and break the game in one way or another and I've got linked stats too.


Posted by: FTW 1997
You havent proven anything apart from you too bieing idiots.
Like it or not, halo reach is a nice game, and no one can judge weather a player is bad or not just because he likes abilities, i can say that the only usefull ability in halo reach was sprint, it was easier to get assasinations....
Now, your afraid to link your stats, that seems like your weak after all ?


Irony.

And yes, you can and do know a players skill by the way they talk about the game.

Liking Armour Abilities especially "because it's something new" is a surefire way to know someone is severely lacking skill.

Posted by: TheRealKarlMarx
Kill zones. That is all.


If you can't use 10 seconds to do some damage to the other team or fully recover your shields, than you are not good and you should never act like you are.

BECAUSE YOU DON'T ENCOUNTER IT AT LOW LEVEL PLAY

You must be the chosen one.


No, you level of play really is that far below ours.

but it's pretty abysmal in a firefight unless you're using Recon or Default.

I don't like armour abilities but I don't complain about it, I just play Halo 3 instead. I hope Bungie's future game wont have armour abilities and if their new game has armour abilities I hope they'll make playlists for people like me that don't like armour abilities.

Armor abilities are beyond retarded.

Would have been perfect as pick-ups.

I will admit, this thread is full of lolz.

Here is my 2 cents on this situation.

Jetpack - Destroys map control, gives users height advantage and the ability to get the drop on someone.

Armour Lock - Grants user invincibility, prolongs time for 6 seconds. Deflects even nukes.

Hologram - Well... nothing.

Sprint - Can escape death itself, sprint makes up for slow movement speed.

Evade - Same as above, but it can be used for some cool ninja-like assassinations.

Active Camo - Gives user 30 seconds of pure invisibility if standing still in a crouch position. Destroys larger maps by granting players the ability to fade out.

Drop Shield - Doesn't work in Objective gametypes, only works well in Invasion.

A casual player's POV.


I agree with all but two items

Hologram: Useful to see if anyone is going to kill you when you run out your door.

Active Cameo: When sneaking about where you shouldn't be, it is a lifesaver.

-Yes. My words exactly. Jetpack should have been an FF/Campaign exclusive.

-Bungie/343 had the power to remove it at any point during Halo Reach's lifespan as the newest Halo game. They still don't...but they get rid of evade! They decide to have a competitive mindset for evade, but not armor lock. I really want to understand why, but I just don't.

-Hologram worked in the Beta and 6 weeks after release. (And only on your longtime Halo 3 players.)Completely useless afterword.

Sprint shouldn't exist...why not just KEEP high movement speed and save some space for something actually interesting.

Too easy to get away. Back to what I said about armor lock, evade was the only AA eliminated majorly from playlists...but not armor lock. If armor lock was meant to counter vehicles, why not just make them exclusive to vehicle maps if we have to deal with them at all.

People rarely even use camo for the camo, they use it for the built-in radar jammer. They should just rename it Radar Jammer (kinda makes you hard to see too!)

Drop shield was really built for FF/Campaign, and I'm glad it already is mostly exclusive to those.
