Re: I'm going to come out and admit it -
Posted By: Cody MillerDate: 4/29/09 1:52 a.m.

In Response To: Re: I'm going to come out and admit it - (Psychophan7)


: The assault rifle, probably. Also, the removal of movement modifiers for
: melee damage.

: Honestly, I don't think Cody actually knows how many or what concessions have
: been made. It's highly likely that he's just repeating the old mantra:
: "Halo 3 is casual." The mantra certainly seems true, but how
: true is it; How much of the core multiplayer has been affected by these
: "concessions?"

: Basically, Halo 3 seems casual based on certain designs: The assault rifle's
: potency for one, but that's something that is "hard coded" into
: the multiplayer. An abundance in rocket, Grifball, and other insta-gib
: fiestas in matchmaking isn't something that is "hard coded" into
: matchmaking, so could these really be called a concession?

: I'd really like to know, by Cody's opinion, what concessions have been made
: to "casuals" that can't be changed with gametype settings or
: Forge.

To list:

Removal of modifiers on Melee damage due to momentum, and the new Melee system.
Battle Rifle Spread (Highly debatable).
Flag tossing between teammates is not as robust.
Equipment.
Respawning power weapons.
