“watching legendary pro Halo player Dave “Walshy” Walsh as he streamed a game of Slayer. Walshy came up behind an unsuspecting enemy and just as he was about to strike for the assassination, his opponent jumped up, using his Thrusters to propel himself back over Dave’s head and take him out with an assassination of his own. The stunned look on Walshy’s face was priceless.”
- Sounds like something you could do without the thruster in Halo 1-3. It was called a ninja, and we only needed higher jump-height, and movement speed.
“The results from the HCFP surveys showed that nearly 11% of HCFP participants felt that Halo should not have sprint. It is important that we continue to evolve Halo multiplayer while ensuring that legacy Halo players feel right at home.”
- I refuse to believe those numbers. What the is even HCFP? I want the numbers from Halo 1-4 in the MCC and their playtime as proof. If Halo 4 has more playtime, or players than Halo 1-3 combined, you are right. If not, it would be unfortunate for you to release them, right …
“Sniper Rifle: improve scope experience to making it less “clunky” and faster to scope
DMR: adjust position of the scope to improve visibility
Bring back the SPNKr Rocket Launcher as a legendary version of the weapon
Reduce bonuses for automatic weapons in Smart-Link & w/ headshots
Remove grenade detonation in mid-air based on weapon fire
Ability to turn on/off vibration feedback for weapons
General tuning and bug fixing for all weapons”
- Great.
“Our newest weapon, the Hydra, received a mixed response from fans. Hard to use at first, it took some time for players to realize how effective the Hydra is at curving shots around cover at range from within the new Smart-Link system. Once it clicked, people began mopping up, but many players still felt that the weapon didn’t have enough utility in general combat. We’ll be buffing the weapon to make it more effective out of zoom and ensure that it feels like a true power weapon.”
- Really? The hydra is absolutely one of the most powerful, power weapons there are. It’s a sniper with a small charge-time and auto-aim!
- Zoom in, wait 2 seconds *
- Hide behind cover*
- Look straight up on many of the maps*
Profit? = 1+ kills.
