In Response To: Re: It's all patchwork, folks (profhalo) : Right, and by that point the power weapon has given that team a nice lead and
Depending on what game you are playing that would be stupid. Come to think of it, no matter what game your in that is still stupid. True power weapons can give you or your team a lead if used competently, but you still have to play hard to maintain that lead. : EXACTLY, you have to be above them, not hiding 3 miles away in some deep dark
: It did all the time for me, only difference was Halo 1 took better timing
: I never equate popularity with quality. Funny, I thought quality determined popularity. The better the quality, as Halo 1 and 2 has, the greater the popularity. : In 99% of the games I play, a level 1 with a sniper can still kill me with
Let me see, a head shot by a sniper can kill anyone no matter what level they are, not leading someone may be attributed to lag, vehicles are naturally harder to kill than a person on foot, and if both players just stand still then yes the person who shoots first will win that's why you have to move around, keeping your opponent's target reticle off you for a few seconds can make a difference or just retreat to grab another weapon or let your shields recharge will help. : Rebalance means, make the weapons killing ability balanced with the other
Ha! First, the RL lock on feature only applies to vehicles, when dealing with people on foot the RL is the same as it was in Halo 1. Second, no matter what your view on balanced or unbalanced games are a magnum should not be as powerful as a RL or vice versa, that's the point of different weapons some will be more powerful than others. Halo 2 would truely be a "whoever shoots first wins" game if every weapon had the speed and range of a sniper rifle and the damage power of a RL. The only skill you could practice would be dodging. : Ya, THANK GOD I dont have to worry about skill and marksmanship anymore. I think you miss the point of what Louis was saying. : And thats sad that skill in halo is reduced to the ability to differentiate
I think that the skill in halo rises to the challenge for the guy with the sword to cross that long distance to get close enough with the sniper to kill him, which I've done and seen been done. |
