PLEASE leave core Reach the way it is

> I liked Reach the way it was when it came out, when armor lock was useful and you had to pace your shots, but I see the need to create a CE playlist for CEA’s multiplayer.

armour lock is still usefull post TU, it just requires actual thought and teamwork now, you didn’t need to pace your shots either, as long as your reticule is red you could spam and win the majority of the time.

got any evidence or reasoning behind such a bold statement?

things that do not work as intended are broken
bloom doesn’t work as intended - broken
forge snapping doesn’t work as intended - broken
gaus hog shooting through walls - broken

other things are pretty un-balanced:
armour lock
jetpack(more maps then anything though)
banshee bomb
tank
grenades(this is more with movement charecteristics)

are you sure default reach isn’t broken?

armor lock has been nerfed and removed from playlists so many times it’s barely useful in or not available in FFA/Team Games.
and at long ranges you did have to pace your shots.

i was using the scenario you presented in real world applications.
if a person is tired or distracted then at the time he currently is not the better player.
player generated luck cannot be avoided either, people will get that burst of brilliance but they won’t be-able to maintain.
player generated luck = good, game controlled luck = bad.

it sounded how i described it to me, i guess it depends on peoples point of view

armour lock is still usefull, it just requires teamwork and some actual thought process to use it successfully, i think plunderfull can agree on this…
with bloom, as long as my reticule is red i don’t need to wait for my reticule to fully reset, when my reticule isn’t red then i have to wait.

bloom worked - not broken
forge snapping works - not broken
gaus hog shooting through walls - proof needed

other things that people don’t know how to counter:
armor lock
jetpack
banshee bomb
tank
grenades

I stand by my claim, Reach is not broken

1.it’s a persision weapon 2.what wepon did you “cross map” with

The people who where dumb enough to buy something they don’t like, or the the people who bought a game they liked completely and had it changed? I bet people who like any of the previous Halo games would be pissed off if that happened to their games, and I would too! Adding stuff is fine, but Reach stays as I and many others bought it.

It;s dumb for people to buy a game they know they hate, but obviously we’ve bought it long before we had a solid opinion on it. Furthermore, it’s even dumber for 343 to ignore the large amount of vocal complaints. Someone might be fine with it, but the vocal majority isn’t. And when the vocal majority seems to despise a game, that’s a hint for developers to get their Yoink! fixed.

bloom was ment to punnish spammers and reward pacers, currently it is the other way around.

> 2.I guess if your that careless i could happen

it isn’t carelessness, it’s the object rotating that pushes through walls or in to the water which is out of your controll, i’ve been close to an object to get a better view of its position, grabbed it and go thrown through the wall and dead.

> 3.i’ll have to test that, but every game has gliches does that mean very game is broken???

there is actually a gametype and map built around this glitch, it’s called battle ships, it’s good for a bit of fun.
glitches doesn’t mean the game is broken unless the glitches gameplay.

> 4.-8.so basicly people don’t know how to counter it.

you didn’t read what i wrote did you?
i never said it’s an issue to do with being able to counter, it’s an issue with being over powered and or un-balanced, just because it’s counter able doesn’t mean it isn’t overpowered or unbalanced.

> 1.it’s a persision weapon

ok but bloom makes it none precision weapon and turns it in to a randomness weapon.

> 2.what wepon did you “cross map” with

dmr and needle rifle firing at max rate of fire while the reticule wasn’t red, i was hiding behind a rock waiting for him to run out of aim at first but the spread was extremely small for that distance, when he reloaded i started on him but he spammed back at me and 1-3 shots was hitting me knocking me out of scope every time and he won while spamming cross map vs pace.
i’ve had simulair instances where i’ve come out on top by scoping in and quickly firing to get the advantage and win.
