Dude, seriously. I had to read the first line three times just to get what you were saying. Maybe you should tone down the caps, too.

Without the Auto-Aim, all the weapons would be more balanced and using a Rifle wouldn't always guarantee a kill against a Dual-Wielder. It would make the game more competitive skill-wise. Thats why I think they should tone down the Auto-Aim.

There you go all you morons trying to flame him.

Anyways, yes, I think they should turn down the Auto-Aim or atleast have an option to turn it off for gamers (much like me) who don't enjoy it.

Auto Aim is used to the extent it is in Halo since it is a console shooter. Auto Aim is used to compensate for the inaccuracy of using two joysticks as opposed to a mouse and a keyboard. This is why auto aim will always be present in console shooters including Halo 3.

PS: Try not making moronic posts in all Caps. And is it really so hard to type out the word "with"? I think you can spend the extra fraction of second spelling it properly if only to save the English language from being butchered.

ive done that playin against my partener i avg a 35 hit percentage in noscopin which has no auto aim and im sayin that people with thier sensitivity up high will just have to turn it down so they can aim it would really make the gap between the skilled and the masses much wider. plus duel wields would probaly be more dominent for those who have no aim. and yes the reticule can still turn red

Okay seriously guys... enough topics about auto-aim. Bungie made this game. They played it without auto-aim. They decided it sucks and is too difficult without auto-aim. They put it into the game and if you pay attention, it varies for each weapon. Why? Because it is necessary to keep the feel Halo 2 has currently. Without it aiming would be harder and since joysticks aren't nearly as accurate as mouses, auto-aim makes it more balanced to what a mouse would feel like.

The game would probably be bad without any aim assistance, but it would probably be very good if the aim assistance were simply toned down.

we need an option in makin our personal games to have auto aim enabled or not just to see what it would be like.ex swat without auto aim is much better in my opinion it would ad depth to it imagine it having to actually aim at some ones head when u turn around

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

A rifle isn't always a kill against dual-wielding.

I stopped reading after you said that.

Try again.

Halo CE = Lan party
Halo 2 = Live
The reason so many people think halo 2 takes no skill is because in halo ce the only competition were friends in the next room. when the same people get on live, they realize they are no where close to being the best and therefore blame their loss on unbalance in the weapons and game.

my gamercard

all console games have some sort of auto aim(Halo2) or magnitic bullets(halo1). its just to make things a little easier, and match with the skill it takes to aim with a mouse. in PDZ if it wasnt for magnetic bullets then no one would be getting kills.

Auto-aim largely helps to compensate for lag (which H2 does alot). Its hard to hit the when they're glitching across the screen as it is. Without autoaim you may as well just not bother. Its Bungies way of compensating for lag.

arguments turn into battles and battles turn into wars,dismantle the arguments and everything is fine.

I though you could disable auto aim in halo 2.

you would be playing some pretty boring games without sticky aim, which is why every (good) first person shooter on a console uses it. And judging by your barely legible post i would say that you didnt realize that sticky aim differs between weapons, and is noticeable not as controlling on the BR. Taking out sticky aim is like saying: "Why dont they take bullets out of halo 3", or as chieftinazealots would say: "Y DUN'T TEH NOT PUT BOLLETS IN HALO 3". Oh yes, also this "GARUNTEE" kill with a rifle against a dual wield sounds pretty sweet, i wonder if this happens when using your medium range rifle at MEDIUM RANGE against two extremely close range plasma rifles? Or did Bungie say "oh, you know what'd be sweet? making the battle rifle WIN NO MATTER WHAT!!!! yeah, screw weapons balance lets do that!"

You do realize that Halo:CE also had autoaim right? It wasn't just Halo 2 (which, btw, there was more autoaim in 2 because of Live)

first off halo 3 will be played on the 360 whickh to my understanding should have considerably less lag then the xbox to a great extent not to mention theyll probaly have a better system which will find hosts with the best connection more often. and dude im a 15 in rhc i think id know what i was talkin about i was exagerating when i said a rifle is a garunteed kill aginst a duel wield besides auto aim doesnt always help you as in the case of rockets if you get my point instead of aiming at the ground your cruiser is pulled up towards the opponent. id just like it toned down alot more especially for the weapons w/ zoom capabilities it would be more halo 1 like with aiming not whoever sees who first wins(exageration).

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

1. Don't type in all caps.
2. Never use "Da" as a replacement 'word' for "The"
3. Read above two
4. Try to kill your teammates that's no auto aim


The Auto aim and magnetism should be more similar to Halo, than Halo 2..Halo took more skill simply because of this being one of the gameplay factors.

I promise you that without auto aim everyone in here would be half as good as they are right now, at least. Like mentioned before, If you have ever tried to shoot your teammates then you know what it would be like to have no auto aim. You might run out of ammo before someone dies head to head. If they took out auto aim then you guys would probably start whining about not having any auto aim.

I never got what this auto aim is? I dont see a setting for it and my weapon has never pulled to the target, unless it's because I do such a fine job I beat it to it which I highly doubt. I know there is a auto center which has nothing to do with moving to the target. Could someone shed some light on this for me?
