During the last couple of tech previews i was of the opinion that radar range was too short. But i could tolerate it in 4v4. Playing BTB though is a whole different story.
I can’t play BTB with the radar’s current range. The amount of times people were able to get right on top of me and get the jump on me just got to frustrating for me. I can tolerate a faster TTK I’m this game, but not if I’m not given a radar that at least gives me a chance to face my opponents. I even recorded some clips today to rewatch and was astounded at how close they got to me before the radar picked them up and the speed they were able to close the gap. I feel like 75% of me deaths come from random blindsides, no matter how careful I try to be about watching my surroundings.
I feel like I’m a kid trying to cross over railroad tracks. I do my due diligence in looking both ways. Cost clear. But as soon as I take a step, a train rips through at Mach 5 and wastes me before I’ve had a chance to react.
Like I said before, in 4v4, I can tolerate the shortest range on radar. Even though i think it would still be increased. But if BTB launches with radar remaining where it’s at… Well I’m going to be really sad i can’t play what is otherwise the best piece of Halo I’ve played since Halo 3. I just can’t stand the random deaths.
Please increase radar range 343.
