: http://1up.com/do/feature?cId=3143147&did=1 It's frustrating, because as a decent XBL player, every one of these articles I read seems to be written by people who have no idea how to play Halo 2. OMFG, teh banshee is invincible if they have teh rockets! If the banshee pilot has any skill whatsoever, they will always dodge rockets, so that's really not a valid point. Furthermore, there are numerous more effective ways to defeat banshees; perhaps he lacks the skill to stick them with plasma grenades or board them, but he should at least know that SMGs and the shotgun deal shocking quantities of damage to banshees and ghosts. Some of my favorite kills are done by either jacking a banshee or jumping on top of it and pumping it full of shotgun lead, killing the player in two or maybe three hits. After complaining bitterly about power weapon control, he then goes on to complain about the plasma pistol. He claims it is the most overpowered weapon in any of bungie's games. Perhaps he doesn't remember just how fast you can fire three rounds from the pistol that you spawned with in Halo. Perhaps he forgets that these are both sought-after weapons that you have to go out and get, and that they directly balance the lack of power weapon respawns. How stupid is he? The whole point is that using the plasma pistol, power-weapon holders can be assasinated by someone with decent skills, allowing them to change team hands. He also seems to forget that these weapons run out of ammo, and that the ammo is on a consistent spawn cycle in an area that can be defended! You can't get his supposed 30 kills from 4 rockets. Learn to play before you criticise the balance of the game. |
