My view of complaining...

Games Other Halo
1

I know the usual complaints are the DMR, Boltshot, Sp Ops, Campaign, and the entire game as people like to say. Here’s a list that shows what 343 should do about the situation.

  1. One way to to solve the DMR problem that is seen in players eyes are to tone down the damage on it. It’s takes four shots to the head, then dead. A simple thing to do is make it a five shot like in Halo: Reach, so then players would probably stand more to survive using the BR and Carbine and make it a match in Mid-Range, as it was supposed to do so. The range of the DMR, people will still complain about, but it’s not a problem as I see it.

  2. I’m surprised players did not see that the Boltshot was going to be a shotgun pistol. In the “Promethean Weaponry” trailer, it had shown the Boltshot acted like a shotgun in the video, and everyone had no care for it, nor taken note of it. So, my complaint on Boltshot is done.

  3. Covenant Carbine needs some damage, it’s not combating the other ranged weapons very easily. Just up it so that it has the kill rate of the BR, that should be enough love for it. And a little more accuracy would not hurt, would it?

  4. I have no complaints on the stories of the Campaign or Sp Ops, nor issues with it.

Overall, I still like the game. These little niches I know won’t come immediately, but sometime ahead would be nice.

  1. This would make my day:

-6sk
-less spread or more autoaim range
-clearer scope

I’m finding it to be very useful on Requiem. The only issue is that there are some areas where the brightness of the map makes it hard to see when scoping (i.e. at the bridge section) and it’s generally inaccurate (when I was jumping repeatedly to delay a checkpoint, it was -Yoink!- difficult to land a hit on a Jackal sniper). The Carbine works great with strafe but with jump, it’s annoying. I find it easier to use the BR and DMR with jumping/jetpack.
