I remember the BR being a lot harder to use in 2 and 3. It’s pretty easy to use in this game. I don’t like how easy it is. Maybe it’s just my years of experience with it? I just feel like the bullet magnetism is so prevalent in the BR now. Not complaining, but I missed having to lead your target and actually take aim. Is that odd, or am I just the greatest halo player of all time and will beat any forum monitor in a 1v1 BR only match? Why am I such a hunk?
I thought they pretty much got rid of aim assist? It might be with how accurate it is is why it may feel odd to use.

Not sure about aim assist, but the bullets feel so easy to land headshots. Almost too easy. Honestly I prefer the BR in this game over almost everything else. Except for the PP. That thing is op.
Aim Assist in new releases has been pretty generous compared to the original trilogy games.
Also, Ce and 3 are the only games that have shot leading.

The bullet magnetism for precision weapons has really increased.
Headshots with br and sniper are simpler than ever before

It was a lot harder. Magnetism is really strong in this game and bullet leading isn’t a thing anymore. Basically, if it required some sort of skill, it was removed. Like 343s pathetic excuse for the pathetic state of the radar.
All the precision weapons in Halo 5 are easy, they just sort of attract to the head with the amount of assist they have now
What really gets to me is the banshee and warthog assis, the banshee auto aims and the warhog turret just has to be in the general area of the emeny.

Growing up maybe. Greatest player of all time… nah.

The hit boxes for the head have been enlarged, and bullet magnetism has been turned up. It’s like Wanted with that bullet curve! They should go back to whatever the halo 2 settings were I thought that game was perfect for aiming!

I hope you’re not trying to imply that bullet leading involves more skill because a speeding bullet is a heck of a lot faster to hit its target than your xbox is to communicate with the host server, even if it’s dedicated. The latency involved in online shooters makes bullet travel time completely negligible in comparison, much like how the delay on a wireless controller is not really important if you’re using a 60" TV. Shot leading in H3 was purely a connection check for a mechanic that makes no sense in the first place since UNSC weaopns wouldn’t need any leading at the ranges involved in competitive Halo to begin with. Bullets are very, very fast.

Ok now don’t get all carried away or greedy or whatever about thinking your the best player in the world that can beat any Monitor. You just haven’t seen Walshy yet. Matter of fact, you probably never seen Final Boss in action! Oh the 2004 days at MLGHALO!

Haha, I know right? This guy hasn’t seen Walshy or Final Boss yet. Lol

Is it not obvious he’s joking?
Yeah I agree, the BR is strangly easy to use…
BR’s always been easy to use, dont really understand this post
It seems the bullet mag is increased, but the aim assist is turned down. Thank god it’s not the high halo 2 levels of aim assist or I might’ve dropped the game because then you wouldn’t even have to aim to kill people across the map.

The point is that 343I games tend to have a lot more magnetism so the BR is easier to headshot with than in older games

self absorption at it’s finest. Either way, it doesn’t matter whether it’s easy to use or not. It’s a weapon in the game, nothing would ever get changed (come on, it’s a BR)
Also, snickerdoodle or any other monitor has to monitor, not 1v1 low-key challenges
It’s not weird to want to feel like you earned your shots but it should be noted:
H2’s first major TU removed the OG burst spread due to netcode issues. Leading was due to netcode latency, NOT partial ballistic physics. Over LAN, this BR is a demi-god.
H3 has a similarly but different netcode dependent issue. The first frame of each bullet is hitscan but the rest have travel/time properties so you may have to lead. Being red or blue reticle affected the burst properties to be tighter, so blue-shooting was rather difficult on BTB maps. Combined with the returned spread it made for some wonky online gameplay.
MLG felt the need to up damage by 10% to create the 2-shot+Melee BR that requires 11 bullets, not 12 for a perfect kill. So if they had to modify the LAN BR for Arena-sized maps, it must have been a bit on the hard side online.
It should be noted, though I can’t swipe-shoot as easily, the H5DMR feels easy to use. The BR is just “forgiving” in shorter ranges thanks to the burst properties.
