A Few Things That Still Need To Be Addressed

Bullet magnetism needs to be removed COMPLETELY and replaced with a bit more aim assist. I would be fine with how it worked in Halo 3.

The advantage for players using LT to zoom needs to be removed. They need to be forced to repress LT. LT shouldn’t even be the zoom button anyway.

I agree with the trigger … it needs to be pressed again. But I don’t think they need to remove magnetism completely, just tone it down a notch.

The less aim assist the better for me. Maybe an option for this? Similar to the re-centering of the redicle. After going back to MCC, my aim gets messed up with the redicle chasing my targets for me haha.

Agreed on less bullet mag. Probably filed under weapon tuning. However, I deplore Halo 3’s version of projectiles. Too many randomly placed shots, and huge aa. Projectiles would only be better if everyone were on lan.

I don’t mind the scope as long as it forces a repress. Let people map buttons to what they want to. Just make sure triggers vs buttons work the same way.

I would have to be against this. I have terrible trouble on pressing the sticks to zoom, I’m very heavy on them and even if I’m just moving around the map I can often find myself zooming for no reason. LT zooming was a tremendous help for me in Halo 5, I finally felt like I could play half-decently. It feels more comfortable for me to be able to use the trigger. I wouldn’t mind if LT scoping was moved away from the default scheme, but I would like it to to at least be a option to switch over to.

Well, Halo 3 had more aim assist, but the way the bullets behaved was different. It had no hitscan. I didn’t mind it most of the time; I actually found the H3 BR to be quite a fun weapon. Still, it got frustrating sometimes when you had lots of lag or when registration was just off. Many people disliked the H3 BR.

343 does tend to lean pretty heavily on bullet magnetism (H4, H2A, H5). I think if they kept it in a small amount and increased aim assist it would be just fine.

Magnetism is something that helps beginners and disadvantages skillful players. Aim assist is fine, as it gives an initial “lock-on” that can be thrown off by skillful strafing. The strafing is pretty much useless, however, if the bullets are magnetized to the target. Bullet magnetism need to be completely removed. Aim assist needs to be increased.

Fine, but the automatic rescoping is something that gives LT zoomers an unfair advantage, and it pretty much ruins the concept of descoping.

aim assist along with the hitboxs and bullet magnetism are my greatest concerns for Halo 5.

Aim assist functions like a massive sensitivity drop the moment you reticle gets near someone, making it heavy, sluggish, and often feels completely stuck. People often over compensate for it being stuck, lurching into over-aim. aim assist should function like a subtle gravity-well, gently assisting player input toward the target, and a sensitivity drop should not occur until you are ON target.

The hitboxes are way too big, and bullet magnetism is way too high. This got compounded by the fact that BR has ample kick + spread, basically turned BR into a long-range, center-mass, 4-shot, shotgun. I mean, sense when in Halo has aiming at someones chest = headshot!? I REALLY wish they beta tested a week with DMR start, just to see the difference, because DMR was so much less forgiving then BR.

As for the left trigger thing. I tested this numerous times and I never once got left trigger to re-zoom automatically be simply holding it down. Not once. After I had been descoped, I always had to repress left trigger. I think kill cams are just show that people are spamming left trigger due to descope.

Which… descope I never liked. I dont care if it is classic. Its annoying. Either, have a single descope after shield drop. Or just git rid of descope.

So in order to help you play better you want to remove the effectiveness of the descope mechanic in favour for helping your inability to not be so heavy on the triggers? This would be akin to me asking for an automatic rezoom simply because I’m using Bumper Jumper and I don’t want to press the right thumbstick again “because it’s hard”.

Wait, what? Control schemes with LT to zoom do not require to press re-press LT again after descope? Didn’t know that. What is the descope delay? If it’s short enough, it probably ruins the whole point of descoping.

Agreed, bullet magnetism is far too high in Halo 5, especially with it being the lowest its been since CE. I think you’re talking about Aim Assist, the dragging of the reticle to follow a moving target… It’s a tad ridiculous on Halo 5. I dislike the aim button being the trigger, but I’ve gotta back up stckr, it should be an option in the game. I’m used to aiming being the right stick click in, but a good amount of people don’t like that AT ALL, and I can’t, within reason, deny that opinion. They should certainly have to depress, and press back in the left trigger to aim though, and trigger spamming should be canceled out, just like stick spamming was.

Aim-assist is not any one individual mechanic, it is the combination of many assists such as Bullet Magnetism, Reticle Friction, Reticle Drag, Snap-to-Target and Tether.

I was focusing more on the “remove LT for scoping aspect”, should have mentioned that I would be fine with having to press LT again after being descoped. I see no problems in doing that

Did anyone ever check that there wasn’t auto-rescope with RS as well?

It might be that if you hold in RS rather than just clicking then you could get auto-rescope too.

Elites, and black undersuits. That’s the way I see it.

Forcing a repress yess but loll removing a control scheme because you don’t like it? Some ppl are more comfortable with there trigger fingers than thumbs and specially if you play a lot of shooters. Halo is my main shooter so I won’t be touching default. LT to zoom is as much of an advantage as my not having to take my thumb off the RS to jump should recon users ask to remove bumper jumper? And top of it all smartscope is not like classic zoom it takes so much room, having your gun come up and down in a firefight is NOT an advantage lol.

there isn’t you have to repress it.

this just make the de-scope a bad joke to everybody who not use LT.
