Re: Interesting

In Response To: Interesting (howekern)

: Does anyone notice that there are a lot of these wish lists cropping up?
: Might that suggest that there are a *lot* of features that seem to be
: glaringly absent from the game? Almost like Halo 2 was just the "Now
: with XBox Live and a few features we should have had in Halo 1!"
: expantion-pack than a true sequal?

: At any rate, those I play with have freaquently wished for classes of some
: sort - as in Day of Defeat or Aliens Vs. Predator 2. Something to turn the
: game into less of a run-about-and-fire-madly and affect more of a tactical
: element.

: Or at they could at least fix some of the most annoying, worthless weapons.
: Like restore the shotgun and pistol to their original states (both, in my
: humble oppinion, are now next to unusable), finally make the Needler not
: blow (wouldn't a usable Needler be cool?), or make it impossible to fire
: the Sniper Rifle (or Rocket launcher) while running around and DEFINITELY
: while jumping. It would bring joy to my soul if they could add the
: jackal's shield (which I heard-tell was going to be in anyway, and I would
: have much rather have had than the sword, actually), and the might also
: add a true support weapon (I make heavy use of the MG-42 while playing
: DoD).

Number one, the needler is kick ass. It's a completely different gun than anything else you've used, you have to know when to use it, and how to use it. It's not just point and shoot.

Pistol? It's not a sniper anymore. It's a medium-close weapon. Better than the SMG, if you have the acuracy.

And the shotgun? Trying playing split-screen or LAN, it's a gun of timing, XBOX Live messes that up too much.

Classes? I hate classes, they just give you another crutch to make up for your own weaknesses, and another excuse on why you lost.

And if you heard that the Jackal Shield was going to be in Halo 2, when you beleive rumours way too much.

And if I noticed, most poeple (like you, actually, though not as much) are compaining that Halo 2 is too DIFFERENT from Halo 1, and should be closer. Everybody else WANTED an expansion pack, as opposed to the sequel we have.

And BTW, every you said has already BEEN said. A million times. And we're sick of it. Please add something to this discussion.
