The rush of running up to a tank and placing a Granada on it to do a significant amount of damage or punching the ever living sin out if it to destroy it is completing void from halo infinite, I just played a game and had the opportunity to jump onto the back of a wraith and punching it to death but before I could finish it off the games system kicked me off it and out the wraith into doomsday mode were it glows red instead of just letting me stay highjacked and finish the job. And then to add on to the problem as the driver raced off still glowing red and blew up giving somebody else the kill who wasn’t even shooting it when jumped on. Forget about highjacking and using grenade cause it takes four of them to do it instead of two like previous games. The rush, reward, and immersion is all gone and 343i so far is excelling at doing this with other game mechanics.
Let’s just be honest: vehicles in Halo Finite are so bloody useless and fragile.
Brilliantly said sir.
yep, someone at 343 forgot about fun design and sucked the fun out trying to make the game “balanced”. A common tendency i see in the game industry is that they try to fix things that werent broken. change for the sake of change and no good reason for it.
I guess the maps just ddont support tanks so leave them out and design specific maps for them. grapple doesnt help either which makes boarding incredibly easy. the grapple is literally the strongest thing in btb and should be treated as such. btb’s design is so shallow. the whole mode just hands powerfull things to enemies and makes the combat annoying. If youre gonna go that route then just take it to the next step and make it fiesta so everyone has an equal chance at easy things.
Vehicles are easier than grunts when you have a Grapple Hook!
i remember people were worried about the grapple before they played it. 343 said not to worry, they made it difficult. In my mind I pictured like really specifc spots on a vehiicle you have to aim at and it would be fun and challenging. NOPE free vehicle boardings for even the worse aim.
sigh, grappling vehicles just feels unspecial to do and extremely anoying to have it done to. No wonder they made the vehicles out of paper since the grapple ccant be overpowered if the vehicle falls apart after 10 seconds getting into it.
I found it fun On my very first jack!!! Then it was like where’s the challenge…. Then it turned out that the Grapple was quicker than the warthog to get around…. Hmmm Broken Boring Easy Game!
The banshee is made of papier-mâché and takes two banshee bombs to kill a spartan, hands-down the worst banshee in Halo history
they clearly designed btb for people who want 0 challenge, and not for people who want some good fair pvp action which i feel is most of halos audience. 343 designed btb for an audience that will play it onnce and never again except for the people who put up with mediocracy.
