In Response To: :( ??? (retsamolah)
I believed MikeMan has truly nailed the problem here. The amount of whining and complaining I see makes my stomach turn.
The game's only been out a week, my friends. If you are gonna tell me you knew all the intricacies of Halo 1 after 10 days, and you could utilize all of them (like the Pistol), you would be lying straight through your teeth. To be honest, I had my doubts when I first started playing Halo 2. It felt like a no skill game when it started out. But as I got better, I realized there's a lot more than just spray and pray. Even, or rather, especially games in which you just start with an SMG - those are definately not spray and pray. The way the levels are made force you to consider where you are on the level, and where your opponent is coming from. Stuff like crouching to avoid radar detection (I've killed people a number of times using this). Try head to head matches on Lockout and Ascension. Get to levels 8, 9, 10, THEN tell me it doesn't take skill. Give it time.
