This is a halo forum and yet you are talking about cod? Pointless.

Thanks for the pointless post.

Ok,I know that there are alot of topics on this but here's my take. If I shoot at you and you shoot at me and we get our shields taken down at about the same time, it happens alot if your in a good 1v1 battle, our rets bloom out so much that if we don't pace our shots it becomes random. I might be dead on you and you me but it's random. Now if I try to slow down after I get your shield down and you keep shooting fast its still random b/c you might get that lucky shot while I let my ret get small or you might miss even if you stay on target and I get the kill. Ret bloom is bad for halo in more than one way. Bungie says you need to pace your shots at range, well that does not work b/c if I do that you have all day to get to cover or one of your teammates might come along and kill me. In halo reach I feel like when I get a kill I'm lucky, and that's not good gameplay. I should feel like I have skill when I get a kill, and I feel that every now and then, but most of the time I feel it's luck. I have over a 1.50 KDR in halo reach. Thats not great but I think it's not to bad either. Do I have a good KDR b/c I'm good, NO. Its b/c I have more luck than the people I kill. The last great halo was halo 2, H3 was more of the same and reach was a huge step backwards b/c alot of the skill was taken out of the game with bloom and some not so great AA's. It's sad to see bungie's last halo was there worst, not counting ODST, but 343 looks to be on the right track with halo 4 and it might be as good as the best of all the halo's, halo 2.

Forge is somthing that most people do not use in halo reach. Me and my friends don't want to get off work, come home, and make maps. We want play matchmaking on the maps that 343 makes. In halo reach when you join matchmaking every game is on a forge world map. Yes the layout may be diffrent but it's the Same grey and sliver walls, same look all the time. It gets really old fast. Now having said that, if 343 does make some type of forge world map thing, then make it to where we can select wether or not we want to play on forge maps, and i'm not talking about voting. I'm talking about in the main menu you could select your game mode then select wether or not you want to play on forge maps or 343 maps, then forge would be fine. Once you have made your choice you get to vote for 1 of 3 maps before the game starts like you do in reach. That would make it more fun for people like me b/c I like to play on maps that look diffrent every game and not just the same looking maps all the time. Forge is a cool idea but it's not for everyone.
