| Re: Why change the grenades? | |

In Response To: Re: Why change the grenades? (Hedgemony) : Catering to people who suck at the game. This annoys me. Why you wanna take : shots at the people who play MP everyday and have a great time doing so? : Why you want to put noses out of joint and sound like an elitist gamer? : Scared the noobs are going to own you? It's like Halo3 stole your dog and : you're still looking at the ransom note. Why not allow more information to : gamers and allow them to improve? This isn't about people playing it everyday and having a great time doing so. This is about a light on a grenade. I think the light is pointless one way or another. So when I refer to people who "suck" that are being catered to, I'm really referring to people who apparently are so bad at the game that they actually complained about being unable to see a grenade kill them (just like all those people who complain about the BR spread even though there's really nothing wrong with it), like they would have managed to dodge it anyway once it was at their feet (light or not). Catering to that seems like such a waste of time, in my own opinion, and thus, in my own opinion, is pointless. Forget noobs or awesome 1337 pwners. Fix the spawn points. Fix the latency issues. Fix stuff that actually matters. A light on a grenade? Pointless. : I think you should change your name to chicken little with all of this
With the light on the grenade, I got confused and thought that the sky was falling. There was this glowing orb that just fell from the sky on top of me and exploded. I'm just trying to warn everyone else about it falling before it's too late! : So far you've stated: Confirmed: Guide dogs for Reach.
Guide dogs for Reach? Well putting a light on the grenade to cater to people who apparently can't figure out what exploded on them would seem to imply a metaphorical guide dog for Reach, so I suppose you're right! I'm hardly better than everyone else at Halo. I can't even get a level 50. But I don't need a light on a grenade to figure out that the explosion was a grenade when it clearly wasn't a rocket. The grenade's a non-issue that I've made an issue because of it being a non-issue. I have an opinion and I voiced it, even if it came off as elitist because I dared to view something as completely pointless and a waste of time (and thus wasted plenty of time complaining about it). I never said Bungie ignored everything else. There are plenty of other small things that actually could use some fixing (and may have gotten it) that have actual effects on gameplay. I just think it's lame that they focused on something that literally needed no tweaking or fixing, especially with the saved films system fully capable of showing you where and how you died from that pesky grenade you could have never gotten away from in time anyhow. Again, latency and host issues will cause the grenade not to show up and make people wonder what happened far more than a light will fix any questions. And I disagree with you, which doesn't mean you're wrong, it simply means I have an opinion. I have come off as pretty elitist even though it wasn't the intent. This isn't some casual vs hardcore thing I'm presenting. I already explained above what I meant by "people who suck." I respect your opinions, but frankly disagree. : -Hedge.
