In Response To: Re: June playlist update is up (FyreWulff) : If you're getting spawnkilled by DMR users in Flagstravaganza, you're going : to be spawnkilled on the same map in Big Team Battle, because the entire : other team starts with the camping weapon and can get more ammo from any : of their teammates you kill or from teammates of yours they kill. : I made a whole post about this one time about how DMR/BR shuts down map : "gating" before, which I'm pretty sure you just glazed over the : last time so I'm not really going to go over it again. Like I said in : another post, if you don't like it, you have two freaking playlists with : DMR start objective. Go play those and if it's really worse, then the AR : Objective lists will bottom out in population. : Heck, you technically have three DMR or NR start lists with Team Classic. : That means there's still more options for starting with DMR in the : objective context than there is AR. And yet people still whine. That's : amazing. I dont quite remember your gating explanation, so I cant comment on that, but I do know that we both have VERY different viewpoints on how precision weapons effect the Halo gameplay, and so im willing to say agree to disagree. :) BTB DMR starts I agree to an extent, but the difference is you can fight your way out of the spawn trap, with Pistols your kind of screwed at more than close range. Im not whining, but I was just curious as to why you said AR starts are better. In my opinion AR starts can please the crowd that prefer AR's however I dont see how it works better for objective, I also dont see how Ar starts with DMR pick ups can be a positive thing. : Nope, because since everyone doesn't start with a DMR, the DMR pickup doesn't : have functionally infinite ammo. : Also, really? Pick up the sniper to counter them or pistol them. When only : one or two people on the other team can have a DMR, they aren't going to : be locking down 6 people with it. Sorry. If only 2 DMR's can be carried at a time then thats different, BUT I did notice NR's on the map aswell, so if there are 2 of each on the map its not hard to imagine a scenario where 3 of your teamates manage to get one each. All it takes is a good push to wipe them out and have 1 of your players grab the flag while 3 spawn kill them with superior weapons. I dont care who you are, when you have just a Pistol to defend yourself against people who have mid range weapons, its very unlikely you will manage to beat them to the Sniper before they get it. Its also unlikely you will beat them to the DMR spawns, when they can effectivly control them.
