Reticule Bloom No Longer In Reach?

No it does, but the bloom is on the smaller inside reticule, not the outside one.

 

I heard they decreased it for gameplay reasons, but im pretty sure its still in

 

It is still in and it has been decreased because people complained a lot.

 

I sure complained a lot. It was a real bother. I'm glad that they decreased it.

 

Personally, I liked it. It reduced spamming of the trigger.

 

It made me laugh when some noob was 2 feet away spamming the trigger on his DMR and none of the shots were hitting me!
I preferred the reticule bloom.

 

Wow /facepalm
I didnt even know they added reticule bloom....this is not halo.

 

Stupid noobs complaining about bloom. I say keep it dammit. Not like it really affected my gameplay at all.

 

Really? I hate it when I'm waiting around a corner with a shotgun, and someone cheaply kills me by shooting paced, accurate shots.

 

But....before there was no bloom so you could just spam.
Even then, Bloom sucks.

 

It was fine the way it was, why did they change it

 

I don't wait around corners, jerkface. Anyone who has played with me can tell you I use the shotgun the way it was meant to be used.

Additionally, I'm perfectly capable of using the "cheap paced, accurate shots" with any other weapon.

 

As Far as i can tell the Needle Rifle is the covenant equivalent of the DMR.

they're doing this with all the weapons now because the game is much more focused on Spartans vs. Elites. (each player has both a Spartan character and an Elite character)

they've also balanced the Plasma rifle to be the covenant equivalent of the AR

one of my most favorite things of all though is the grenades. if your a spartan you start with 2 frags. if your an elite you start with 2 stickies ^^

 

I think (or at least hope) he was being sarcastic.

 

I didn't even pay attention to it. I just thought it looked cool how it did that every time I shot someone. Didn't affect gameplay.

 

Just shoot them in the head and worry about the bloom after their dead, seriously guys, you really shouldn't complain about something as paltry as this. The only people this affects is people that spam the trigger, which should be nobody that knows anything about anything, this at least brings some semblance of more realistic warfare into halo, be greatfull.

ps. No, I am not one of those call of duty uber-fans

 

how could you do that when it takes at least 5 shots to kill? they're

 

I heard its been lessened a little bit, but its still there. It didn't really effect gameplay at all for me, didn't bug me in the slightest.... i don't care if its there or not
