FIX THE MELEE LAUNCHES KIDS ARE FLYING AND GETTING AWAY WITH SWORD DISTANCE LAUNCHES WITH MELEES U CAN’T TRADE CUZ U DONT EXPECT THEM TO FLY AT YOU AT 200SPEED PER HOUR … IS LIKE U RACING WITH A TOTOYA CORROLLA VS A HELL CAT ON A DRAG RACE ! PLUS 99% OF THE TIME WE ARE IN 80 AND UP LOOBIES U DONT EVEN HAVE ENOUGH SERVERS TO BALANCE THINGS OUT WE HAVE TO ENDURE KIDS FLYING ACROS THE MAP TO MELEE U FIX IT
LATINOS ARE FLYING IN HALO INFINITE?! NO WAY!!
I don’t remember this happening in the books!
Jokes aside, using Microsoft Azure servers is a big part of the issue. Unless you are very close to one of those locations, your ping is going to be garbage. That’s why Halo struggles to exist outside of the United States. Not enough dedicated servers.
Soooo…. Apparently 343 besides their numerous Other offenses to the halo community are now allowing people playing in Central America to be picked off by flying Spartans. You heard the loud yelling man. FIX THE FLYING KILLER DEATH MACHINES. This is one of the better posts I’ve seen in a while actually
Not true at all, I’m living in central EU and play on 23ms server most of the time, and still the experience Halo gives me is nothing I’ve ever experienced in any other game out there.
Not talking about EU. I’m talking about South America, Mexico, islands, Asia, Russia, Australia, etc, where the ping is always in the hundreds or possibly 1000+ms spikes
Is the ol’ Zoom-In-With-A-Distance-Weapon-Like-A-BR-Or-SR-Then-Swap-To-The-Energy-Sword-And-Press-Attack-So-That-The-Lunge-Range-Is-Equal-To-The-Red-Reticle-Range-Of-The-Other-Weapon-You-Swapped-From-Is-Used exploit back in?
Because that is what this sounds like.
For the un-initiated, back in Halo 2 there was an exploit in which you could zoom in with your Battle Rifle or Sniper Rifle on a target.
Since the Energy Sword lunge-range was tied to the red-reticle range of the weapon, players found out that you could swap from a scoped rifle to the sword and press the attack button.
If done fast enough, the game would perform the sword lunge at an extreme range as the sword-lunge would input the distance of the red-reticle of the rifle rather than the usual distance of the sword.
So instead of a nearly three meter lunge you could sometimes pull of a ten-meter lunge.
My father drank heavily all my life, I think I can translate…
“They are flying”
Greetings one and all! I have alarming news! Players seem to be flying too far during a sword lunge!
“FIX THE MELEE LAUNCHES”
I would like to request that you reduce the lunge speed and distance for the energy sword.
“KIDS ARE FLYING AND GETTING AWAY WITH SWORD DISTANCE LAUNCHES WITH MELEES”
Children have been besting me at combat lately and I can find that disturbing.
“U CAN’T TRADE CUZ U DONT EXPECT THEM TO FLY AT YOU AT 200SPEED PER HOUR”
Unfortunately the current lunge speed and distance for the energy sword doesn’t seem to facilitate trading sword blows and parrys very well between players.
“IS LIKE U RACING WITH A TOTOYA CORROLLA VS A HELL CAT ON A DRAG RACE !”
I feel like I’m being forced to race a Toyota Corolla while my opponent has been provided with a Dodge Hellcat!
“PLUS 99% OF THE TIME WE ARE IN 80 AND UP LOOBIES”
Do you have enough booze for all of us?
“U DONT EVEN HAVE ENOUGH SERVERS TO BALANCE THINGS OUT”
Because I feel like you have enough, but you just don’t want me, personally, to drink anymore.
“WE HAVE TO ENDURE KIDS FLYING ACROS THE MAP TO MELEE U”
You don’t have to worry though! I don’t get drunk, I get awesome.
