Re: Halo Reach title update footage on damnation
not sure about armor lock disabled by nades. I think he let go of armor lock to clean up those one shots.

i like the no bloom, but i'm a little concerned about how bleedthoughs and the new armor lock nerf will affect gameplay.

Wow this is fucken stupid. First off all taking away the bloom on the DMR is retarded. It takes away the skill with it making it a point and shoot wep and not a precision based one. There was bloom on the AR however so to say all bloom is gone is a false statement
Second bleedthrough????? When this game was coming out Bungie had stated many times that the bleedthrough is gone and it made sense. You have a shield, so you shouldn't take any dmg until its gone (Sniper and other power weps exempted of course). That is to me at least one of the key things that makes Reach better then Halo 3. Its harder to kill someone in Reach then it is in Halo.
Great fucken job 343 you fucked up big time on two major things and the only positive thing I saw on both the video and this list is you gave the nades more bounce(woopy fucken do) and you nerfed Armor lock.
Over all I give you a 35% 343 a big fat F
Re: Halo Reach title update footage on damnation
the problem with the bloom is that its broken. if you spam you should be punished but with the current bloom you are not. this means the more accurate player will win battles and not the luckiest player.
also the two greatest halo's(1 and 2) had no bloom and hit scan shooting. i see this making reach amazing.
the bleedthrough allows for those kids who just sprint and herp and derp you when you put 3 shots into them to get owned like they should.
Re: Halo Reach title update footage on damnation
Then fix the bloom and not take it completely out. now it becomes who spams the wep faster. I can spam the hell out of you in the body and when your shields are low I can one shot you in the head due to no bloom and stupid bleed through

you have like a sliver of shield left, i have full shield, be both beat down we are no equal footing, because we both have same health. No bleedthrough
same scenario, but with bleedthrough, you are not either dead or have almost no health left. bleedthrough.
Re: Halo Reach title update footage on damnation
I agree with Silko a bit. Those changes seem to make it less of a high-skill game and down to a medium-skill game.
Removing bloom for only the DMR and leaving it for the other weapons is truly stupid. I feel they did it only for the gameplay (since the players were so bad), instead of actually changing it in the game.
Also, what Guzzie said about the Armor Lock is more accurate; it seemed obvious he was cleaning it up after he got melee'd. Armor Lock doesn't need a nerf anyway, it's bad enough. :/

theres going to be a cap on how fast you can shoot the dmr and i am betting it is slower than the cap now. it will probably be the speed at which the bloom fully resets normally or a tad sooner. so basically you can't get lucky and spam and kill someone who is pacing like they should.
also all the stuff in the title update will just be a option. 343 has said they will not change reach from its original state(other than little things) but they will create more customization options. which now is confirmed as no bloom, bleed through and maybe more stuff, we will have to see.
