Games Other Halo

Not trying to complain cuz now I’ve given up and am learning to except halo 4 changes.
CTF is a very loved game type in halo one that means a lot to the series exspeacily in a the eye of a competitve player. I’m cool with the option to shoot a pistol whe carrying the flag I think in MLG it could make for some crazy moments, but not being able to have the ability to drop and pick up the flag at your own will not so cool.

I’ve watched legal and illegal gameplay of those losers who couldn’t wait and Even though the flag carrier is not slowed down its still pretty slow compared to flag juggling

Flag juggling took precision skill to drop and pick the flag back up cause a mistake could be the differnce in capping and not capping, and even though you couldn’t protect yourself without dropping the flag and slowly switching to your dmr, which is why I think the pistol is a good add cause we all had that moment where your 10 feet away from the flag and a two shot enemy got pass your team and its a one b one stand off which the flag carrier 7 out of 10 times will loose simply because he had drop the flag to shoot but with the 343 magnum add the carrier can shoot two magnum shots get the kill without having to drop the flag. I like that as a option no complaint I just think the two can co exist.

In the end halo has always had aspects that were a little broken, but what 343 thought was broken is what made halo halo. When ctf was in halo it made you slow and defenseless we the community looked at it and said how can we fix this we then figured out flag juggling are own duck tape to a broken mechanic. There are plenty of duck tape mechanics in halo over the last 10 years that made halo halo but that’s another topic. So what do y’all think could both flag juggling and magnum flag carring co exsist

I’ve already lost my arm, my leg, and took three shots to the chest in these threads. You’ve created a battlefield bro, a war is about to be waged.

Certainly.

Why would a war need to be waged. OP has stated his opinion back up by an argument he believes is correct. If you disagree than feel free to disagree in a rational manner. For those who can’t do that than why even post if you’re just going to flame.

OT: I agree that not being able to drop the flag could hinder the competitive community. However this is just an opinion as I haven’t played the game myself. I believe that the option to turn this feature on/off would be quite beneficial. But since the game is finished and close to being shipped I guess that’s not an option. So I will do my best to adapt to the new implementation of flag carrying.

Then why are you still covertly complaining… ((((Shrugs)))) See if this read helps to give you a different prospective, “We’ve all missed the point of the “new” CTF”.

I want the ability to drop the flag to remain, however I think with the whole run speed not really changing when you have the flag there’s no real need to juggle the flag.
