I swear to god, if nothing is done about this, I’m going to have a dam heartattack, fix the gravity, fix the grenade throw, I swear, he throws like a kid, weak and pathetic… Imagen me, going to throw your car keys over to you… In a slow and circular movement, so you can actually catch it… That’s precisely how the Spartan throws his gernades… You gotta be kidding me, it’s a grenade, where’s the dam force… or atleast make it feel like you’re actually throwing something. Feels like both the actual throw speed and the arm movements are pathetic…
When two objects collide, like landing on an obliqued ground… What happens? You fly aside… And it takes seconds or maybe even hours for you to land atlast… Make it more realistic… One big problem with this is that… when you jump and it takes 100 years before you finally land on the ground, your ability to sprint is running out while being in the mid air… So it’s pretty much a big waste of Sprint, while jumping… You sprint straight forward into a wall… Depending on the speed (which isn’t very high in this Game) you get pushed backwards… The force backwards depends on the material and the speed… In this case, there’s 1 moving object (the player against the wall)… So why the heck is the player pushed back miles away from the wall after sprinting and jumping towards it? I swear, it’s not even close to realistic…
Or take the Sword for example… Why is the dam Sword Range extremley short and sensitive, while the Flood’s Sword launch is really far away? I mean, as a Flood, you literally fly/teleport forward when aiming at a target. Not to mention the speed of the Flood, that’s really unecessary. Nowdays you have to aim really good (In the view of that the opponent also gets launched forwards and moves to the sides before you even see him). Before you even blink, he’s gone out of your sight, and he comes from the side, where you can’t really see him…
While using the sword, it feels like a child slowly and gently throws his hand infront of his sight… As if he was trying to cut air, especially when you actually hit a target… Still feels like hitting air… Pathetic… Maybe it’s the lack of force from the Sword launch, so it hardly feels like my Spartan actually cuts something…
Something else I really dislike is the fact that your sight is very limited… Like looking just straight infront of you… I’m not certain if there’s a difference between Reach and Halo 4, but I almost never had this issue in the previous games, before H4… In real life, even though you focus your sight straight forward, you can still see what’s going on around you… This game is so fast, especially when people freaking spawn next to you and kills you before you even barely react. And I mean especially in the small, oval maps… Everybody spawns next to eachother and has a high speed when walking, even faster while Sprinting… I mean sure, the Spartan is wearing a helmet, but atleast make it abit possible to view abit more from the sides…
There are probably many more complaints about the physics, but it’s too late to actually write it all down (in detail),too tired for that… And I’d be -Yoink!- if these changes weren’t made… Maybe not in Halo 4, but atleast in the future Halo games for crying out loud… I liked the physics in Halo ODST. The physics can be mixed up with so many senarios, for example, while sprinting, when jumping off a roof, getting hit by grenades, sword fights (when you for instance gets stuck in the midair, unable to move until you finally touched the ground), vehicles flipping over, Banshee evading, all that kind of stuff…
It’s outraging… Something must be done about this… Perhaps 343 should leak out information about their work earlier than what they already inform everyone 1 - 3 months before the game releases… That way people can tell what they like and don’t like about the Game… Because if you wait a few months before the release, it’s probably too late, and too much to work on, and nothing is likely to be changed… Atleast not major changes… So I’m pretty much dam pissed off how 343I turned to be, and many many more probably are… I’m not trying to be rude or anything, but this is just the way it is… And there’s still time to show us the opposite, that 343I still got it in them… We don’t want to hear them working hard… We would like to see them doing so, how they listen to their fans for instance. So lets get to it!
