    People have such mixed feedback about the weapon patch. If you were outsider looking in, you wouldn't know if the BR was ruined or if it was better than ever.

    Personally I think the new BR is fine. I feel like the people who are complaining about it are the people who have weak Magnum games anyway so they already sucked to start with. I'm happy they didn't actually change the default sword cause the Relic Sword is only good for certain modes.

    Honestly I dunno know what prompted them to edit the Fuel Rod. They claimed it was too strong but I could probably count my deaths to the Fuel Rod on my fingers haha.

    Are you serious.

    The BR has random spread. That's unacceptable what year are we in again? If they wanted to cut the range then you cut auto aim, not just needlessly make the bullets shoot in every direction.

    The carbine has random spread.

    The AR is a laser now and does double the headshot damage as before, it's the best clean up weapon in the game.

    The Fuel Rod was spammy and annoying but it's hardly on any maps so you probably just didn't notice it, but its blast radius was almost as big as the standard rockets but you could spam it.

    The sword should never had had speed boost in the first place, and honestly it doesn't even need a lunge anymore.

    On the Fuel Rod, I played Mano y Mano for the first time Saturday I think, and we both had a few kills with it. It seemed just about as lethal as before. Maybe the splash damage is closer to Rockets now?

    I dont even pick up the Battle Rifle anymore, too many times should I have killed someone when I didnt. The magnum is just way better then the BR in every way.

    ^ Above post are case and point about the tuning ^
    There is a huge range of people's reception of it. Usually defaults to extremes on both sides. If Reddit and Twitter are any indicator at the very least, it has shaken people up haha. I don't care to argue on what is right and wrong. Just speaking my piece.

    For me, as long as they don't touch the mag I'm all good. I enjoy the Mag play in this game way more than any other start in any previous Halo. But that's just me yo.

    I mean it doesn't look like anyone here is disagreeing. I just despise random spread on precision weapons. Like what are we doing.

    TBH, I think it was just an "easy fix" to make BTB more fun for vehicle play. Same with early Warzone matches. Part of me feels like 343 knows nobody likes the H5 BR anyway so they gave it a niche nerf.

    You would assume taking the BR out as a start in BTB would have been the easiest fix buuuuuut hey. I dunno. The H2 BR is a level 4 REQ so you basically have an aim bot in your hands for twenty minutes

    Why’d it take so long for them to update the weapons in the first place? Any other game would have had this resolved so long ago. And let alone the fact 343 couldn’t even do it right

    Hey @MultiLockOn Im genuinely curious what it was like designing maps for COD, after playing some of the WWII maps, they all feel like garbage paintball arenas cluttered with buildings everywhere. Is there a legitimate reason this is like this at all that you could talk about?

    You are opening Pandora's box with that question ahaha I don't even know how to begin to answer it.


    Quickest answer I could give is that they believe in everything I've grown to hate over the years of level design. It felt like rudimentary bullshit and rules.



    About 180 pages on powerpoint of rules.

    Surprised how many symmetrical maps are in the new cod

    Weird enough my favorite maps are the asymms, except that one snow map from the beta I hate that map

    I do like that super open snow map though with the big train or whatever

    The real question is why would you hire a level designer then shoehorn them into your views, why not just hire artists? It seems silly to seek out someone you like for their philosophies on level design and then force them into your views, why bother.
