Implying that H2 didn't take skill.

The game held your hand through everything, hell it even aimed your gun for you and if you still managed to not have your cursor over the target the game would teleport the bullets you fired into the enemies face.

How the hell does a game that aims for you and teleports missed shots into your enemies head take skill?
Oh yeah totally. Reach and 4 isnt as bad as- wait a minute..

Reach and 4's aim assist are irrelevant here.

If an FPS comes out that doesn't feel sloppy/glitchy/produced with little budget, which has a big learning curve and little randomness involved, like how Halo 2 and 3 had, you will be seeing me there. I'm hoping that Destiny will be that way if it is an FPS.

With those huge hitboxes and magnetism, it was hard to miss in Halo 2.


Have you played Reach/H4?

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

I agree with what you're saying, but your stupid "my opinion is fact, anyone who disagrees is a fanboy" attitude kills it.

That's right.

Yeah, no, OP, ain't gonna happen. Halo 2 was a marvel of her own kind. Perhaps the best of Halo's. Either way, it's a grade-A game.

  • 12.23.2012 11:58 AM PDT

A signature would go here.

Halo 2 was by no means a flawless game, but I had more fun playing it in its prime than any other Halo game. This makes it the best Halo game for me.

Actually I like Halo 2's campaign the most out of all the Halo's (Halo 4 in second place) but I agree the multiplayer wasn't that special. Halo 3 is basically a better Halo 2.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

They weren't the same. Halo 2's was bigger than both. Okay I am not sure about Halo 4 but I know Reach's wasn't as big. Your reticule still had to be red in Reach's to get the kill while in Halo 2 it didn't. Reach's was more like Halo 3's in the retrospect.

Halo 2's campaign was good in terms of difficulty and diversity. In that aspect it was probably the best in the series as for story obviously it isn't the best, but I wouldn't say it is the worst. As for the multiplayer part of the game it is obvious you are incredibly misinformed even for saying you played it at the time of release. Yes there were a lot of modders and bugs/glitches, but Halo 2 did a lot of things right the main one being the learning curve, maps, and skill system. It is honestly the only halo game where rank actually mattered in determining if you were good or bad. Even then it is a shame the top 10 levels were for the most part unreachable due to modders. If anything it is best to look at the faults in Halo 2 and improve/fix them which is for the most part what Halo 3 did. Now my question to you OP is why bring this up when as you said people should move on? Who is to say people haven't and just like use the game for comparison's sake?

I haven't noticed big aim assist in those games, maybe because I barely play with the DMR. But, do you even remember how glitchy and buggy Halo 2's MP was? It was clearly rushed and unfinished.

ITT people pick at Halo 2's auto aim, meanwhile Reach and 4 have the same relative auto aim and MANY more noobified/CODified features, worse maps, and game-ruining mechanics.

My third montage!

Suddenly, a wild opinion appears!

On topic: To each their own OP. I honestly think that the reason that most players hold H2 in such high regard was the fact that it was on Xbox Live.
