Big this with the entire game is you seem to be punished for playing on a console. Disruptor kills take two FULL clips and the assault rifle takes at least one full clip and a punch!
The Mangler being taken out is really upsetting the flow for me. Was such a nice place in the escalation I found

LSS is pretty bad. I mean think about it, prior to this event the LSS playlist routinely had queue times >1 min. That should say something… nobody wants to play this mode for fun and only do so when there’s an event tied to it. The fact you can’t queue up with friends and at least play duos is ridiculous. The entire mode is the exact opposite of what a Halo game should be.

I wish they would allow you stay in a party and play LSS. We’re not doing the event challenge for this very reason.
Do they allow parties in any FFA game modes? I’m pretty sure they want to ensure that everyone is playing by themselves, which is why they don’t allow parties for LSS. People will abuse using 3rd party tools to cheat the event, team up with 3rd party chat devices and work together as they kill off everyone else on the server.
That’s what custom servers are suppose to be for.
Not really. It’s literally 3 kills, I usually have 7-8 within the first few minutes of the game. I got all of the challenges completed in under 2 hours on 3 different accounts.
All 20 normal challenges + ultimate challenge done with 3 accounts in under 2 hours? I highly doubt that.
2 hours = 120 minutes, 120 divided by 3 means you would have 40 minutes per account.
You can’t do all challenges at once, but a maximum of 4 are available at a time. That means that you would always needs at least 6 matches (20/4 = 5 + the ultimate challenge that is always on its own). That would leave you with 6 minutes and 40 seconds per match (including searchtime, time to check your new challenges and time to switch accounts!).
But that is only if you can do all 4 available challanges in a single match every single time, wich is extremely unlikely (not only because they are for different playlists, but also because some challenges ask you to play or win multiple matches), and then also fully complete all of them in that single match…
Please change it back to Disruptor and Sidekick for starting weapons!
Like I said: Level. Three.
I’m just lamenting that don’t have a headshot gun to start the game off.
And why would you do it three different times?
Probably swapped all challenges to “complete matches” or something
I prefer the way it’s done now, but I think it would be better to make the bulldog the last weapon since it is so overwhelming. Replace the current bulldog tier with a Mangler. Or maybe a hydra.
Starting with just a disruptor is fine, it’s a stronger weapon than people think. If your connection is bad it’s bad though, because it gets false hit registration on bad desync matches
If you ever get to the BR/Sword combo you’re unstoppable though, and that’s kind of lame.
You dont have to sit out the entire match. If you’re out of lives you can just leave and the challenge progress will count as soon as the game you left finishes.
Only problem is that if you have completed challenges you have to wait for the new challenges to go live
I don’t care about the armor in the game, but the maps are too big at times, it throws me in on several BTB maps and it’s just painful.
FFA is not the problem. LSS being awful and spawning with only a Disruptor is just one of the many problems with LSS. Not a good events mode.
I think it should at least be a Disruptor and a Plasma Pistol. Both are relatively weak guns, but at least you don’t have to force a reload every with the disruptor. Plus the overcharge could give players still on level 1 a chance to deal with the level 2 ARs.
They could, but killing people with the disruptor by itself is pretty easy in it’s own right. It really isn’t needed to have a second weapon.
The Plasma Pistol is so dog-awful that I wouldn’t mind that at all. The disruptor is basically a meme gun off LAN anyway, it might not do any damage at all, or it might be all you need to win the game on a good connection.
Perhaps, but just having a second gun as a backup wouldn’t hurt especially since the Disruptor has such an inefficient shots-to-kill : magazine size ratio. Plus the overcharge combo would at add some spice to the initial engagements beyond zap-zap punch or a DoT kill from the grave.
