Re: TU is sweet.

In Response To: TU is sweet. (Overdoziz) : Adapt. Yeah. How about "No"? I refuse to "adapt" to broken, unbalance gameplay. I have the option of simply not playing Reach MM (except for the occasional match of Invasion). People like you remind of those "Stop Having Fun" Guys. "Balanced gameplay? Nonsense! Playing for fun? Surely you jest." It's all about proving who's the best, who has the most "1337 DMЯ sk!11z", right? At least, that's what I'm getting from all the comments you've made on the subject. You've said flat out that if it were up to you, you'd remove any and all automatic weapons from the game, and your dislike of bloom is no secret. You want Halo to be this 100% deterministic game with a high skill ceiling & low skill floor, but I think Bungie has a different mentality when making games: balance and fun. They didn't want it to be a competition about who can best pull off a 5sk with a DMR that's perfectly accurate even at its max ROF. The DMR in vanilla Reach was part of an excellent balancing act along with, among other things, the massive boost to the AR's accuracy, but the TU completely undoes that. You want determinism? You already had it. You just had to pace your shots. But I guess "adapting" to that was beneath people of your ilk, but rather the rest of us must be forced to "adapt" to a game that's devolved into the past paradigm where proficiency of the primary precision weapons (the M6D in H1, the BR in H2 & 3) was the most important thing. So, what was that in your other post about Reach being "a step backwards"?
