Re: Yes, broken halo.

In Response To: Re: Yes, broken halo. (Louis Wu)

: I never said he didn't. In fact, I said he did - I LIKED his solution to
: the PP/BR combo issue.

: What I didn't like was the absurd viewpoint that the game is unwinnable if
: you're not first to a power weapon. I've played a lot of Halo, and I've
: watched even more - and while I don't PLAY at 'competitive' levels, I sure
: as hell watch it... and you can NOT tell me that every single game played
: by pros is won by the team that gets to the power weapons first. You
: simply can't.

: Sometimes it's not what you say, it's how you say it, that decides how
: seriously people take your opinions. And the way the writer of that
: article made his points was lame.

Beaver Creek usually sees me and my team without a power weapon (mostly the Rocket Laucher) in the first few minutes of the match, and after a few kills, we quickly counter - me usually with the BR. Once I get ahold of the RL, I'm pretty much unstoppable until those four rockets are gone and flying. In a normal game, I see the RL switch possesion about three times, and the Sniper two to three times.

Also, aren't there two Rocket Laucher spawn points in Coagulation? There's one in the middle of the map, and another on the cliff face next to Red Base, I think. There might be a third, but there's RL ammo strewn everywhere too. I think the arguement that three rocket launchers are able to be held by one team is absurd, unless that team is truly dominating.
