In Response To: Re: What we expect in MTA and M4 (cB557)

: I definitely would say that the gameplay in CE was a lot more fun than
: Marathon's. Arguable whether it's worth the hit to the story, but it's
: definitely something that CE has over Marathon, and it made the game a lot
: more accessible.
: With the rocket launcher, don't try for direct hits. Aim for the ground near
: enemies and let the splash damage do the work.

Heh it was specifically flying things that were pissing me off re the rocket launcher :).

And I disagree about the gameplay. Map design is a massive part of that, and Halo's is terrible. Even when I find the right path, every room looks the same and I'd swear I'd been that way before. No frickin' overview map is like ..
well it's like Blizzard taking away flying in WoW this time around: One could forgive it, but they also went out of their way to make the terrain suck to walk around (or find your way around) and that combination is bot forgivable.

Plus the sense of movement in Marathon is still the best I've ever seen, and why I never got a headache playing Marathon. Halo, and in fact most FPSs I've played since Dark Forces, do it eventually. Only Destiny has managed to get it right; just a shame it got so much else wrong.
