can’t accept change.

jetpack - people never think to look up do they?
armour abilities in general are a good step forward for halo, they work well and they do add more skill and more of an emphasize on teamwork.

No, they do not, I play at a higher and generally more competitive level than you. Please think about how a full team in any playlist can abuse armor abilities.

Why should people have to look up unless they’re looking for HLG BKs. AAs are a good step forward? Yeah like cancer is good for the body. Jetpack negates map control, sprint slows down gameplay, AL completely ruins gameplay and is a total crutch.

Doesn’t both teams abusing armor abilities kinda balances things out.

Yes,JK but I will ask you this,how many times has frosting been a factor in your death?To you second point,if you threw a frag and it bounced off your opponent and found yourself within the balast radius and were killed by it,would that be your fault?Nades kill,gotta be carful with the boom boom.The rocket is not meant to hit your opponent directly,rather the area around him,if you are aiming just for the player with the rocket in my opinion,yes you are at fault due to missuse of a weapon.

wait what?
abuse - to abuse something to gain an advantage

armour abilities are meant to be abused to gain advantages, the smart player will be able to do this while the dumb player won’t.

if people can’t abuse armour abilities to gain an advantage then surely they must be broken??

oh, and seeing as you have to mention what level you play it means you have no real argument to present and just using your skill level to try and prove you are right and i am wrong.

Would you argue with a doctor about how to perform surgery?
No?
So why would you argue with someone who has played every Halo and has higher stats than you?

Did you just compare surgery to video gaming?

well,yes. but it’s more like one doctor telling another doctor how to perform surgery.

A less experienced doctor.

omg, i just spend 10mins typing out a nice long reply just for it all to get reset… here goes again…

  • frosting hasn’t got me killed, it’s impossible for it to do that but it does tip the balance in favor of the armour lock use in a situation where kills should have been traded.
    after a person has been in armour lock a full length and now comes out, i’ll pop a headshot but because of frosting my headshot doesn’t do any damage to him while he pops a headshot on me, the player got the headshot because of his aiming abilities and my own incompetence but he survived not because of skill or my incompetence but because of something that was out of our controll.

i understand why frosting is there, a side effect because of the disorienting effect from going from 3rd person to 1st person but this should be a negative to armour lock not a positive.

  • frag grenades you say? well, being inside the blast radious of my own frag grenade isn’t the fault of armour lock but the fault of my own incompetence, the frag grande could have bounced back at me regardless of armour lock so i think this is irellivant.
    sticky greandes are different, if i stick a person that means my stick grenade is attached to him, but if he chooses to armour lock that sticky grenade could come flying at me or a teammate possibly giving me a suicide or a betrayal which leads to me getting booted(yes, this has actually happened to me) because well all know how people like to boot instantly without thinking.

what should happen is instead of the sticky grenade launching off the armour locker it should just drop to the floor every time, i may not have killed him with my sticky but it won’t be killing me for using something as intended.

  • i’m misusing a rocket launcher…? i think you may have had a brain fart here.
    a rocket launcher is meant to be used to kill an opponent, you do this by hitting him directly or in his general area.
    now, there is a variable to this aswell, i could shoot a rocket launcher at his feet but because he is moving it will hit im directly, i didn’t aim directly at him but because of player movement it hits him directly.

now, he armour lockers when a rocket launcher hits him, that rocket could possibly be deflected back at me or a teammate, now the same outcome from this is the same as sticky shedding so there is no need for me to repeat it.

i have been extremely luck with armor lock myself and deflected a rocket right back at the jetpacker who fired it but because i had already done damage to him i got the kill.

the solution to this is quite simple, rocket explodes on impact to an armour locker instead of being deflected.
there is still an advantage to this aswell, instead of getting an extermination i could only get a triple kill sad face, but it is still an advantage.

  • oh right, destroying boosting vehicles.
    i shall make this one quick.
    after some thinking i don’t see this as an issue, it makes people think twice about splattering someone and adds some vehicle warfare instead of a splatter fest but n objective gametypes such as territories, people can’t use there armour abilties inside the objective so people are free to go and splatter them to prevent them from capturing.

well, for this to make sense i would also have to be a surgeon and yes i would if i think he might be wrong or to help pioneer a new technique

i also love how you avoid presenting an argument and instead bring stats in to question(which is against the rules by the way) and use poor analogies to try and prove a point.

there is no wrongs though, using armour abilities as intended isn’t a wrong, it’s a right.

2 rights make a double right, a double right can also make a 180 degree turn.
