Halo 3 and Halo: Reach multiplayer wise have been too easy. Without a challenge the game gets boring, very quickly.
I want the skill gap in Halo 4 to be HUGE. I hope that you can easily distinguish the good, the average, and the bad players, like in Halo 2. Please 343 don’t dumb down this game like Reach, make it CHALLENGING!
> You cant say that unless your MLG Pro which your not. Every Halo game has included a huge skill gap the way it was.
They had to change a ridiculous amount to the settings in order to increase the skill gap to what it is.
And even with all that work and expertise, there is still VERY little gap between the top teams, as so many people have essentially reached the skill ceiling. There was not a single 3-0 on Friday night.
I don’t see how you can be worse at halo. The game doesn’t make you good or bad. That all depends on your skill. Even if they made it harder their would be people that can’t adjust to it as well as you might. Therefore, you’d still be good. Basically all i’m saying is making a game harder doesn’t necessarily change skill.
I was a decent Halo 3 player, I played smart, was generally able to outplay most people and almost always would beat people I’ve already beaten. I knew where I stood in the hierarchy.
In Reach, I should be terrible. I haven’t played a single game of it for 6 months. First game back, I managed to destroy my friend who has been playing it constantly since release. The next game he beat me by a few kills. We kept trading games. He is clearly the better player at Reach, yet it is incredibly inconsistent. If I were to do that with Halo 3, there would be no way for me have to kept up with him.
I fully agree the skill gap needs to return. Reach is just a disappointment.
