In Response To: Re: Upset with Halo2 gameplay? You're not alone. L (DaNoob)
I just posted a thread on Bungie.net talking about how the campaign is not fun. Multiplayer, however, isn't a linear thing with a beginning and end (though the H2 story violates even that rule, but I digress). My point is that even though I am unhappy with the H2 campaign story, you've got to be kidding me on the Multiplayer complaints. Halo 2's MP learning curve is every bit as steep as H1's, and it takes time to master. Remember how it was when you first started playing Halo MP hardcore? Strategies would dominate and then get trumped. You'd do one thing that was seemingly invincible, then a new strategy would come along that would make that worthless, and so on.
Unfortunately, now you have these pistolbitches who run mechanical spawn loops with three shot kills and RL and invisibility loops who totally dominated Halo 1 crying because they can't in H2. Well, I bet you are still way better than I am, and I have been playing for a while too. But the point is, now I look forward to improving skills in MP, rather than racing to the rocket or invisibility on Damnation or Prisoner to disrupt the robotic crappy loop of some elite who cries that my "settings are gay" on XBC because I don't have starting pistols, but rather default weapons, so you have to fight with everything. Am I alone here?
*** This is coming from someone with somewhat negative feelings about the whole concept of dual wielding and the campaign mode as a whole!****
