Rorak - my main point was just this: "ultimately the classic and pure multiplayer feeling of the old Halo maps is lacking from many of Reach's...
Randomness doesn't contradict frequency. People miss shots due to bloom randomly, but are still able to get kills by spamming shots frequently....
Yeah well, BITE ME OVERDOZIZ. :P Edited by merge: I will also add one thing: if Bungie wanted to compensate for the power of evadesword, they...
Pegasi said a lot of this so I'll be brief in my responses (as brief as I get, anyway): Again, just for clarity's sake, are you referring only...
And they probably should have (though it makes for some very frustrating moments when you switch to the sword and are yelling "SWING, DAMMIT!" at...
That's badly oversimplified. The quick swipe doesn't involve a lunge (or as much of one) so depending on the results of the clash - which...
It's just a terrible idea from a competitive standpoint. You work to gain the advantage of a power weapon and then somebody with the right...
This forum has gotten a lot better since it turned into just the three of us talking, hasn't it?
I think delivering a lot of this stuff via gametype has been another source of confusion, by the way. Especially since sometimes you can't tell...
I help run a customs night once a week so it all blurs together for me, but I think you're right about matchmaking. It does get confusing in our...
I already play nothing but squad most days. Squad with 85% bloom and no more sword block*? Yes please. * I ****ing hate sword block. I don't...
Totally seconded on the mess. They are trying too hard to make Reach all things to all people, and consequently it's becoming confusing and...
The Spire was designed first for multiplayer? I will never, ever believe that. Invasion, maybe. Regardless of which way the recycling was...
And they should. Most (though not all) of them make for indifferent multiplayer spaces. The Spire is transparently a campaign or invasion map...
I have so far done all my videos with the free Windows Move Maker program. It sucks in many respects, but the price is right, it's already...
I don't need to talk to you because I have the soothing, dulcet tones of your voice in the video for S to keep me company.
Me too.
When you made them game specific, did you also tag them appropriately, e.g. TERR_OBJECT, KOTH_HILL, etc.? If you make it game-specific but don't...
Love this map. Have enjoyed every last test on it, and I hope we're not done with it even though it's released. Congratulations on what is...
Is that the reasoning behind that? I just find it deeply annoying. Now that you say that I guess I get the concept, but it seems artificial and...
