Armor lock, theres no denying it. Armor lock is overpowered Bungie said it themselves. I like the concept of it, but it is constantly abused and needs to be taken out all together. Examples below
Frosting, invincibility before youre hand touches the ground. And when you go out of it you are still “protected” for a fraction of a second.
Double pumble. When one goes up to the enemy punches him, goes into Al, then goes out of it and punches the enemy again. It is extremely annoying.
Bloom. Bungie kinda got it right, if someone is spamming the trigger at the enemy who’s 30 feet away about half of his shots will hit the target. When none should be hitting the target.
Grenades. A grenade is a mini-nuke. Its very annoying, because it takes down your shields and a third of your heath. where as in earlier games it only took down your shields, and if you have most of your health you will still die at full shields from a grenade.
Sword block. I dont understand how using your arm can distort burning plasma that is swinging at you. Ive had many experiences where i cant kill someone because all they do is sword block me two times in a row.

LOL. he said to go to that thread and put your top 5 things to be changed with the upcoming TU.
I agree mainly on everything, but, the two I really wish were fixed/gone are the mini-nukes(grenades) I cant stand dieing by them when i have full health it pisses me off and makes me really get frustrated in Reach. And the second thing I really hate is armor lock. That is probably the worst thing in the game and every single time i get someone 1 shot they go into armor lock and another one of their horrible teammates comes and kills me. Please fix grenades and armor lock! If that doesnt happen I cant see myself ever playing this game again after Battlefield 3 comes out.

agree with everything except for sword block. if you are getting blocked with the sword you arent using it properly in the first place. even if they do block it, if you approach correctly, or optimally, you’ll still have a MASSIVE GARGANTUAN advantage. if they block once, try a small hesitation in your lunge to get around the second block damn near every time.
Is “double pumble” supposed to mean pummel or rumble? Anyway, I think all I really want is Armor Lock removed and perhaps Active Camo not making red dots appear on your teammates’ radars, just the enemy’s. Other than that, I think it’s fine.
