Halo CE: Competent snipers were able to take down their foes from across the map.

Halo 2: Competent snipers are hinderd in their ability because the rounds from both snipers do not go all the way across the map.

So which would you prefer? Allow snipers to do what they are good at?

Or make it like Halo 2, in which the BR can shoot furthur than the sniper rifle, thus hindering the ability of competent snipers, BUT it makes the game more balenced.

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

Halo 1 snipers were better. The whole fighting style was more realistic than Halo 2. So they should make the fighting style 25% like Halo 1 style but make all AIs stronger and faster. But like Halo 2, the skills matches their rank so I would put that feature in Halo 3 also. By the way the need the needler to be more like Halo 1. Yeah, I'll make a thread about it.

H1 style, it's a sniper, they go thousands of feet in real life, this in in the futer, they should go miles!

You should of made up your own instrument. You could have named it the PolarLighting -a-phone. People would buy it and they would all be like "Awh, He's so cool for inventing the PolarLighting-a-phone."

Oh, I know! Lets make everything more realistic! The Armor, the weapons, the vehicles! We'll have to take out the Aliens too because that's unrealistc! Then Halo 3 can be just like every crappy 1st person shooter out there!
Just because something is realistic doesn't make it fun.

I can just picture Mechalord reading his post to a group of Halo fans at GameStop in real life: loud, halting speech, his pimpled face turning red with anger at weak noobs, wildly gesticulating and banging the counter to drive his point home, stroking his tiny teen mustache like Halo Hitler. You need a girlfriend buddy.

I think the reason snipers dont reach across the map in Halo 2 is once again because of latency, that way its not so unfair for those who suffer more latency

Thats exactly my point with the balence issues, so while we may WANT to be able to shoot across the map, do you think it would work well in context with the game over Xbox Live?
