I think personally that halo 3 should not have it... I hate fall damage. 1 Spartan wieghs half a ton which is about 1,000 pounds... If you are wearing 1,000 pounds of armor that absorbs shock and you have shields I think that there should be no damage at all. I also hate how if you fall off a cliff you just die, you should be able to free fly all the way down until, splat. Anyway tell me what you think about fall damage.

I would like there to be fall damage again. Just make it so if you crouch before you hit the ground, you don't take as much damage.

No, i hated fall damage, i think there shouldnt be any in the next game. Enough things already cause damage, dont need height to add to that.

No fall damage in my option ruins the game. If you fall from a very far place like from planet to planet then yes you should die but no please don't have fall damage in halo 3.

Yes. Stop all the little kids super jumping.
Except when you land on something like you're jumping from platform platform, no damage.

I say fall damage if only from an extreme height (top of water works etc) also this will take the super jump away, i hope.

Bungie should take some time to refine the engine so that superjumping is no longer a problem anyway. Besides, most players superjump to reach tall areas that they can no other way, and fall damage usually requires that you fall and not jump.

I think that there should be no fall damage, just like in Halo 2. I'd not only be odd to take a step backwards again and reintroduce it, but one could argue that it was simply the Chief's Mark VI armor that gave him the added reinfrocement from sustained injury from falling from tall heights, too.

Fall damage added a degree of strategy to the game. You wouldn't be able to just jump off of the tallest object on the map and slash the bejeebies out of some poor shmuck with a sword. Also, a lot of superbouncers would be killed by the fall damage. Think about that one for a minute.

That is, of course, assuming that the same glitches would exist in H3, which I feel is a little unlikely.

But I do want fall damage back.

that which is not dead can eternal lie, but with strange aeons even death may die.

your shields should take damage, but you should not "die"

I kinda liked fall damage, it added realism to the game. But no fall damage is fine too, it makes for better options for, like, CTF, or quick gettaways. I don't really care. The game'll be good either way.

No fall damage. Just a delay from the moment you hit the ground to the moment you can walk again.

Also idot elzar, what age do you mean by little kids. im 12 and have 11 and 12 year old friends who never cheat. Adults cheat as well.
