You see, it's not Reach that's boring, it's Bungie. They butchered just about every good thing in Halo 3 such as the handling of human vehicles, and the new things such as the revenant, or should I say spam-enant, and bloom were just bad ideas in the first place.
Seriously, 343i, will you do anything? Or are you too busy working on Halo CEA and 4 to be able to release any info right now?
bloom was always in halo as stated many times but it was only for automatic weapons and bungie put it on precision weapons in reach making it really annoying for a person like me, who pwns in swat, to get a really easy triple kill or an overkill. I feel it replaces some skill aspects with luck.
