Yeah, as others have said, because it is more consistent.

I was much, much better at sniping in H3. Reach pressed the easy button on the sniper and now everyone can use it. There is such a smaller skill gap between people with it.

Doesnt much surprise me that most people in this forum like it better tbh.

Sniping in Halo 3 was easier for me than it is in Reach.

Especially with the Beam Rifle.

Haven't noticed any difference in difficulty.

I don't snipe much...

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

Reach sniping is WAY easier. I've placed shots quite far from the head and seen my enemy drop did and see a snipe medal pop up on my screen. The headshot zone is way too large an area in Reach.

Frank O'Connor said he doesn't think the Halo series needs to be taken in a radical new direction... it just needs to go "deeper"

"Ultimately the core game mechanic and strength of the universe doesn't need to be changed, it just needs to be taken deeper. We want to make Halo games - we don't want to make Call of Duty or Ridge Racer. We want to make Halo games because we understand what's special about Halo."

Reach sniping is easier.

Believe.

I found sniping easier in Halo 3.

I found sniping easier in Halo 3.

with practise it would be easy due to the great control but reach has a much easier sniping system which even amateur players will find easy

yes, it feels much more difficult to snipe in 3 after playing reach

Different strokes for different folks.

I've always found H3's sniper to be easier than Reach's, and I've had practice with both.

Reach's headshot's connect better, but lining up the shot, swipe-snipes, and no-scopes are a lot easier in H3 for me.

Honestly, this is a good cover up for all the idiots who won't know its a cover up .

Or just bad players.

I'm no sniper, but this is just pathetic.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Halo Reach is definitely easier. Halo 3's sniper was so random at times.


Yep, I shot a guy in Halo 3 on Narrows standing still 4 times in the head, reloaded then shot 4 times in the chest, he still didn't die. Blood splattered with every shot, but didn't die.

Still have the Vid.

Reach has it easy, but that's due in part to better netcode. The hit boxes are the gameplay reason as to why it's so easy for Reach.

Yup, and it's more accurate when shooting.

its so much easier

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

It's much easier in Reach.

Halo 3 had the most difficult sniping of the franchise... so far.


That would be CE.

I'm a terrible sniper but I think I was better at using the H3 sniper.

No, but the beta sniper rifle was definitely one of the more difficult versions I think since the recoil affected follow up shots.
