Why Halo is ruined For me

I hate DMR users, The DMR does not take any skill and Clearly beats the BR, Nobody uses the Carbine.
Burstfire on the LightRifle is pathetic.
`There are only two useful tactical Packages (AA efficiency, Shielding)
Ammo gives you more Ammo in Ordnance drops, Imagine someone with six Shots in a INCENDIARY CANNON
Most Armor Abilities suck, The Only decent being promethean vision
The energy Sword and Gravity hammer suck
People always vote for ragnorok, they then proceed to camp behind the pelican
Clumsy teamates that run into you, completely oblivious to the fact.

Though i may have my gripes i mostly disagree.

it mostly comes down to preference. the light rifle burst is the exact same as the br. and the carbine is really good but only if you land ALL your headshots.

i feel the dmr and the br are just as good as one another. i use both :confused:

I especially love that they beefed the assault rifle up. i always ditched it for anything i could find in reach because it was terrible. same in halo 3. it was sort of lame that the staple gun of the franchise had sucked for so long. now it matches up against the dmr and the br almost equally.

There are way more useful tac packages.
i use a class with explosives all the time. having 3 grenades is almost a guaranteed kill.

I use mobility all the time in dominion to get where i need to go fast as well.
maybe you just haven’t tried them out enough.

> Most Armor Abilities suck, The Only decent being promethean vision

i think 343 did a great job and balancing all the armor abilities.

hardlight shield is a reasonable replacement to armor lock. unlike armor lock there is no emp, you move slowly and you’re back side is completely vulnerable.

Regeneration Field is a GREAT ability. in tough situation you can kick-start your or your teammates shield recharge rate. the flip side is that while inside the bubble, your shield recharges much more slowly than normal even though when you’re taking fire its constantly being replenished. i find this one the most useful.

Promethean vision is good but it doesn’t give that much more information that your radar would. you can also see anyone scanning you on your radar.

I do admit they nerffed the jetpack pretty hard. it was my favorite AA in reach but it was admittedly pretty cheap. you could fly like 200 ft in the air and find everyone and rain death from 70-90 degree angles which are hard to fight back against on any map. now it gets you to places conveniently but id say PV or Regen are more useful.

I do think the thruster pack is terrible. its disorienting effect of sending you into 3rd person would be ok if you didn’t just slide like 5 ft. if they increase the distance it pushes you in regular matchmaking but not in flood it would be WAYYY more useful.

Sentry is ok but it certainly doesn’t suck. it’s a nice distraction

> The energy Sword and Gravity hammer suck

ok dude have you used the energy sword. Its so much better. it has a farther lunge range and you recover from lunging WAYY faster. it’s borderline cheap. i have experienced a lunge glitch here and there where the reticule is totally red and no lunge happens but that’s rare.

i haven’t used the gravity hammer enough to comment.

> People always vote for Ragnarok, they then proceed to camp behind the pelican

OK, this i totally agree with. The map is completely lame now with mantises. and camping is super prevalent. something about it needs to change. the mantises make awesome flag caps in warthogs and mongooses very uncommon. they’re are way too overpowered for a map so small(that’s relative to the mantis). they should make it back to wraiths with long spawn times.

So in short halo is ruined for you because your bad at the game. I suggest that you take some breaks, slow down and set the controller aside when your getting angry and tak some deep breathes.

I know you are bad, and biased simply because you say that the DMR takes no skill.
If you truly think that then you are lost…

Black ops 2 just came out, mebe you wanna go play that and leave us alone?

5

So if you hate “DMR Users” so much…why don’t you get the DMR, too? Also every Weapon has a good chance to kill someone with a DMR. just think about it…

Cheers for letting us know.

its okay op instead of buying the game halo 5 just rent it as i will be doing.there probably won’t be a online pass needed for the halo series so you’ll be fine just renting.

no reason to buy call of halo 2 in 3 years time.

8

Right. I hate the DMR too.
Though I’m sure it’s more skilful than the BR.
The thing I hate about the DMR is the fact that it can kill people across the map. I think that’s stupid. It’s like everyone having a mini sniper rifle. It’s range should be changed IMO. Either that or increase bloom, but I don’t think bloom would really fix it :confused:

Decrease rate of fire for the DMR, slightly more bloom. Fixed.

why are you posting the most negative thing you can think of in every forum post?

BR is pretty hot -Yoink-, and most people have been using it in the game modes I play now. I dunno what all the dmr complaints are about, are you guys even playing the game? I personally prefer the dmr in big maps and BR in medium maps.

this man speaks the truth

The DMR might need slight tweaks, but don’t let that ruin the game for you. There are things called title updates.

And tactical packages/support upgrades aren’t supposed to be super useful game changers. They are supposed to be small under the hood modifications.

And Pelican-campers have been a thing going back five years before this game even came out. You must have forgotten how Valhalla played or didn’t play Halo 3.

I don’t know if saying Halo is ruined based on those things is justified, but hey, it’s your opinion.
