In Response To: Re: Meditation on the K/D ratio (Mid7night)


: Uh, YEP. :P

: I disagree; I don't think it would necessarily make the games boring , but I
: guess that depends on your definition of the word. It would certainly make
: the games slower than they are, because more strategy, thinking and
: planning is involved, which is just plain slower than runnin'n'gunnin'.
: Now, if that is boring to you, then alright, I guess it's boring.
: Objectively, the games would be a little slower, and in my experience
: they're usually shorter, since you don't have everyone respawning all over
: the place.

: It's really just like playing a game of "One Life to Live". I know
: it's probably been a while since we all played one of those, but try and
: think back to those games; everyone is a LOT more cautious! But that
: doesn't mean "not fun", at least not to me.

I don't remember 'One Life to Live' - but I remember a custom gametype c0ld used to have on Halo 2; you got a single life per round. If you died, you spent the rest of the round watching your teammates play.

That's fun once in a while - but it gets SERIOUSLY boring after a bit. :) (Especially if you die early - and double-especially if you die by freak accident.)
