No. I won’t hear why it’s good.
You’re wrong.
Sorry.
Just, really had it with 80% of this game’s guns being lottery cannons.

It’s like they’ve never heard of recoil as a gameplay mechanic. Want to punish players for holding down the trigger? Just make the gun go flying. Problem solved. No RNG necessary.
It would probably save the servers a lot of time too. Predicting where a random spread of bullets is going to land is probably a stupidly complex workload.

But you can’t do that with the BR. With the AR it’s only effective if you’re really close range. I get it though. It certainly isnt done properly here.
Ya, God forbid no scoping isn’t pure rng luck. I hate the bloom.
Bloom makes absolutely no sense when a spartan is using a weapon.
It’s just a dreadful mechanic.

Honestly, I’ve stopped even attempting medium to long range combat in this game lmao.
343i tries to implement bloom to make the game feel modern… but games with bloom have ADS as an option that doesn’t get canceled when they take damage… so it’s just bad design in a halo game… 343 is getting closer though, h3 was released in 2007 and this is the closest they have come to nailing how a halo game should be outside of literally copying and pasting all of mcc (and completely destroying a launch). give them another 5 years lol

They also are getting closer to accepting that halo is an arena shooter that is at it’s best when the community has full say over playlists and mp content. Just give us the tools and take our money, really easy concept. H3 wasn’t at the top because of amazing graphics or story, it was because it was a game that had the most tools for the community to use and make it their own. Bungie would then take some of the best community created content and put that into playlists that everyone would play. Bungie leaned so hard into the community, and 343 has done the opposite; they kept telling us “no you will like it this way”. but they are getting closer to actually just listening.
I would also be fine if the reticle bloom was just a quick animation that fully reset as soon as you can pull the trigger again, it gives a nice visual effect and can then be a tool of how quickly you can fire the gun again. so no rng, still feels more modern, and if I no scope with a sniper I don’t have to wait for 3 full seconds if I want an accurate shot
