I’m really enjoying the increased range of the radar so far!
The things I like:
-
It’s so much easier to make informed decisions in matchmaking because I have a better view of where both my own team, and the enemy are, on the radar.
-
I’m noticing that I’m able to move around the level more confidently instead of having to watch my back like some sort of paranoia.
-
It feels like any battles I get into, the winner is based on who is better with a gun rather than who sees who first
The things I would like to be improved: -
Show people who are running on the radar.
At the moment, it seems like only Spartans who are using Spartan Abilities or Sprinting/moving fast are showing on the radar. This makes crouching kinda pointless.
I feel like it would be better if base movement speed also showed on the radar as well. The only time I shouldn’t see people on the radar is when they’re sneaking (crouching or walking slowly.)
Spartans sprint at like 35MPH; this means even if they run half as fast as they sprint they still move pretty fast; it’s something that should show on the radar. Basically, this would make the radar more similar to its prime in previous games like Halo 3 and 4 - where it showed everyone unless they were sneaking (crouching or walking slowly.)
And on a final note, the radar should never be removed or nerfed in Halo. It’s wrong to listen to a select group of ‘hardcore’ players over the long term veterans/fans of the franchise. If people want to play with a nerfed radar, then that was what the MLG playlists were for.
Thanks!
