A no training wheels game mode

Games Halo Infinite
41

Ah, yes, sweaty sweat sweat aim assist BR mode. Raw gun skills he said. Plug in a mouse, disable aim assist, then play for even more good fun handicap times

42

I’m 100% ok with that. Players should get good. Not be babyied.

However I did say these things should be in the game. I want a game mode without them. It’s not like I asked the complete removal of them.

With no power up pad winning a gun fight to get the power up is still a thing. What you are arguing for is the players who don’t pay attention. Why should players who don’t pay attention know where everything is at a glance? It worked in halo before. It’s not like it hasn’t

43

I actually want that too. I would love to play with no aim assist on controller. The harder the better.

44

Then really just unironically use a mouse in the menu and match for a second, and aim assist is disabled for until you close the game entirely

45

Interesting. I might try that

46

It supposedly works that way for joystick keyboards like Razer, Azeron, Hori, etc, so mouse won’t have aim assist, but it also works for people that play left hand controller right hand mouse. It also should keep aim assist disabled when you play normal controller if you really want that

47

Well I would want it in a game mode across the board for all players. I wouldn’t want to give my self a disadvantage if no one else has the same disadvantage

48

I suppose it could be some custom toggle in Forge customs, but convincing 343 to add basically LASO Ranked might be hard to do. No HUD might be funny though

49

Halo 3 playlist made it’s way to Halo 5. It isn’t a stretch to think something like the above could come. I do find it funny that it would be considered hardcore. That would make the entirety of halo 2 hardcore then

Again, my issue with your setup is that players can quickly and drastically increase their performance in the mode without any actual practice in game. Everything you’re claiming “makes the game harder and means players have to practice” was true in 2001, but today simple Google searches completely negate everything.

Does the player who practiced their gun play more get rewarded because of these changes? NO!

Does the player who works on map knowledge get more rewarded because if these changes? NO!

Does the player who practices influencing enemy spawns get rewarded by your changes? NO!

Does the player who googled “Live Fire Weapon Respawn Timers” get rewarded by your changes? YEA! They’ll probably even have a timing edge over a player who’s only practiced in game. –

And THAT is fundamentally why I dislike it when topics like this come up. Removing these timers in game doesn’t reward anyone for practicing anything Halo/in-game related, only players using external tools, and therefore they’re awful changes.

I’m really confused here. It doesn’t take practice to learn timing. You don’t practice for that. You just do it.

If someone picked up the power up at 8:05 then the next time it would spawn is 6:05. With no pad you had to pay attention to the timer in order to know when it was going to spawn. With a power pad you don’t need to do that making it easier for the player. Not harder. Timing takes skill. Not practice

52

Timing does not take as much skill as winning a firefight with other players in order to obtain a power item. Weapon pad timers facilitate players having to fight eachother for power items far more often.

No timer just means you want players who have played longer to stomp newer players with very little cost.

Weapon timers mean you don’t get a free power item, you have to actually prove you’re better than other players to get it by defeating them.

Your changes literally lower the max skill ceiling to be effective at the game, because it will take less effort to obtain power items.

Again, THAT is fundamentally why I dislike it when topics like this come up. Removing these timers in game doesn’t reward anyone for practicing anything Halo/in-game related, only players using external tools, and therefore they’re awful changes.
