Good question. I think it might be initial tracking (at rest) vs adjustments mid-flight. That’s just a wild guest though.
You make valid points and I have also recently started having great scenarios and encounters with it. In rank particularly if no buff comes to it I wish we had more than one. I often use it in one of these scenarios, which saves my life but I need another. It gets destroyed as quickly as it gets put down.
Most people seem to want the drop shield buffed, I say give it to them, at worst they can find a middle ground. I don’t really care, but it would be nice to see how it would change the dynamic.
Commando will be the meta. Calling it now.
Sad to see frags aren’t getting a blast radius reduction. An extra .2 seconds won’t do much in trying to dodge these nukes.

Frags in Halo, have always been insane. This is the statement everyone reads and hears, I’ve even done so, but I believe it needs a damage reduction.
At the very least add the extra time and then have greater damage reduction from friendly grenades.
For the commando in rank, I’m excited to rock it as a secondary, and the same with the pulse carbine. I’ve always been mixed about the commando existence, even more so now that the DMR is coming in season three.
I’d say this, if they buff it, only buff it in small increments or changes. This way we can keep at it feels like it’s in a better ground.
People wanting bigger changes from frags. I’m not entirely sure how I’d handle them honestly. I do feel that increase time to det will make them more skill impacting. But I don’t want to see them toned down too significantly either.
Some people want friendly fire back into this game. But I think that’ll just do more harm then actually good. I can still remember all the complaints in Halo 2 and 3 about team killing. Killing people because they picked up a weapon they wanted, grenading places without consideration of teammates, running over people ( which is still a problem in Infinite, even if just accidental ). I don’t honestly think the fanbase is mature enough to handle Friendly Fire being on.
I would like to see Spike Grenades buffed on a side note though. Maybe make it that Tesla Grenades come in singles only ( I feel they’re a little too effect and easy to use compared to other grenades ).

I think one might be the max angle that bullet magnetism can adjust the angle pulses leave the barrel, and the other is taking angle? Maybe? Lol
That’s because you’re throwing it too close to death. You were already dead on the server when you hit the button. This is an issue that will never get fixed.
I looked up “angular velocity” and just got a bunch of equations I don’t recognize. Needlessly to say, I think it has something to do with the way the bolts track their targets.
What does ‘wus’ mean (for the BR)?
‘World Units’ I think.
We all know WHY it happens, that’s not the issue. The issue is that your “right before death grenades” turning into blanks happen SO much more often than previous titles it’s crazy.
Why are we playing on servers that have such a huge gap between what the server sees and what we see? There’s no reason to think the current state should be acceptable. And it’s not just “low player population means you get crappy ping”.
45 ping on Infinite is a drastically inferior experience to 45 ping on competing games. That’s the issue Infinite needs to solve.
And hopefully they can solve it…

Umm… Not always. Can’t even blame this one on ping.

Finally. They have said that they are working on fixing this.
I’m happy to hear this.
Can’t wait for this to be patched so i can come back.
I feel these BR changes will have a negative effect on us in the EU more and i hope these changes have us in mind also !
I just don’t wanna play a games that tailored for the USA . This is why we don’t have as many EU players in tournament because the belief in our shot is just not as good .
Its so bad players actually moving to the USA just for this game the advantage is just unbelievable why are we being matched against Americans is just beyond my understanding the regional option is so needed but they also should restrict Spartans from playing out of their region ,this would fix a lot of uncertainty.

My Question is why doesn’t the Plasma pistol stop vehicles anymore, like what happened in the “story” or cannon to make the plasma pistol not disable vehicles for a temp period and now its only Kinect guns that do.

As someone playing ranked only (if I return anyway), the BR nerf sounds great. The thing is a freaking laser and absolutely not rewarding. Let’s see if it changes with this update…
Update on desync is very disappointing and I’m sure we won’t see major improvements, if any at all, in the next 6 months.
Rest sounds goid as well, very curious about how much of a beast tge commando will become.
They’ll probably say some bullsht about how the banished scavenged old plasma pistols from the Halo: CE days and those didn’t have EMP.

Exactly lmao you sure are right about that
The Plasma Pistol was never meant to stop vehicles. They only added that later on since they needed something to stop vehicles, because otherwise they would be way to OP.
Now they actually have weapons that do that, so the PP can return to it’s original meaning.

This I see is actually good. Nothing in this game can out-supress the BR unless you’re with a sniper or Skewer. While that may have been valid in previous games, the BR is the only consistent precision weapon in Infinite. We don’t have a DMR, Carbine, or even lightrifle to counteract.
