In Response To: Why change the grenades? (Avateur)


: I mean, it's seriously not a big deal, but I still feel like questioning it.
: Why make it easier for people to survive? Is this catering to people who
: just plain flat out suck, catering to people who can't always play with a
: bunch of sound because of other people trying to sleep, or both? I like
: catering to people who are being considerate, but I have a nasty feeling
: that they were hardly the real reason behind the added light and sound.
: Again, it's not really a big deal and probably won't make much of a
: difference (unless they've added time to how long it takes for the thing
: to explode), but it seems like a pointless addition and something where
: resources could probably have been used elsewhere.

I don't know. I like it. The problem with frags is I never actually see where they were, so it's like "what killed me?"

The tracer gives them a visual ID like the plasma nades, and the warning "tink" is equivalent to the plasma "beep" right before it goes off.

Also, please remember that there are deaf people that play Halo. Hopefully if there is some sort of weapon that locks on, they have the screen flash somewhere - this was actually brought up by a deaf gamer on Bungie.net who was frustrated that he couldn't tell when he was locked on.
