Did you guys prefer the ladders from Halo 1 or the use of grav lifts in Halo 2?

I liked the lifts from Halo 2 but the older ladders were still fun.

I'll stick with ramps.

The ladders in Halo CE absolutely sucked. How many times did you just fall off the side, or get to the top and fall all the way back down?

Yeah, that's true, it's also a little hard to fight from a ladder.

lifts give you more options. and it's easier to shoot and such.

I want to see some actualy firstperson and thirdperson animations used this time around with the ladders, if they're put into Halo 3. F.E.A.R. did a good job of animating the actual climbing maneuvers.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Also I on't wanna get to the top of the ladder, only to be killed by some one with The Sword or Shotgun!

Tough -blam!-. Hate to break it to ya, but you can get killed at the top of lifts with swords and shotguns too.

The only problem with that is that was F.E.A.R. and this is Halo. Two different kinds of games. How would Halo do a 3rd person view for anything?

I don't know why but for some reason i prefer ladders...i guess because you could stop half-way up and shoot at people... sometimes it would give you an advantage and a way to set an ambush for someone who doesn't realise you're climbing just above them.

I always look up when I climb a ladder in Halo 1, so I end up getting screwed from the side.

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

I think, heck if it goes to 3rd person, and you can shoot from a ladder, sure why not. If you cant ill take my chances going up a lift.
