YouTube - Halo 2 Noobified

that is by far the worst example of why halo sux lets start.Plasma weapons:are known to have been inaccurate due to their splatter and everyone knows the plasma pistols homes.Snipers:That sniper swipe is bull because the person obviously put compilations of noscopes while moving that doesnt exist.Melees:its been known that you lunge during a melee its not humanly impossible to lunge at someone so why the hell are they complaining.Rockets: the rocket has an extensive amount of blast damage it is obvious that in a game where the rocket with that much blast damage it will appear as if its heading towards them because its so big.Battle Rifle and HALO 1 pistol:The battle rifle has 3-shot burst therefore the gun is gonna have shots that are inaccurate and 3 shots of burst to the head by a br are gonna kill.The halo 1 pistol has been permanently taken out(unless modified)due to the 3 shot headshot kills at any distance anyone can bitch about that from a game thats 6yrs old.Fall damage and "Noob Combo":If you complain about fall damage in halo 2 you need to stop playing games altogether there is a reason its not there and that is so you dont need to worry about walking off an edge in an intense firefight and give them the kill from falling off of the many high points in the game.Finally the famous noob combo of course it seems cheap if your dieing from it but if the target is moving(which is how you play) it requires the plasma pistol to be charged up and it has to hit them for that to work in other words avoid the plasma pistol and it cant happen.Its funny how everyone complains about this stuff when they leave out the cheapest weapon in the series.The plasma sword:Cheap because it lunges WITH a one hit kill,it requires no skill just a one button move and you can hide the entire game with it and still get kills but at least its weaknesses are the shotgun and grenades so there you go.

so please tell me something i don't know, halo 2 takes far less skill than halo ce to play.... that's all i'm saying, i'm more of a "liking a challenge" kinda guy than playing against 6 years olds because the game is so accessible/cheatable.... granted any game will have cheating but bungie sure does a poor job of keeping up on it, that's actually one of the main reasons i quit... btw i think i've played you on xbl before, what was ur level b4 reset?

i hope they bring just about everything back from halo1 except fall damage. that would make super bouncing alot harder. also the plasma pistol charged is jus about impossible to miss. if you get shot see the bullet is coming and jump it will still rise and hit you move left/right it turns left/ right.. the only way to miss it is to do the weapon glitch thing or go around a corner.

Meh.
Halo Series= First Person Shooter.
Half life Series and recent Metroid games= First Person Adventure.

[MOOSE#51]

a game that you need a lot of skill in is Rainbow Six Vegas unless your a glitcher, grenade whore, and automatic shotgun and sniper user. they have no skill

[Sullivan]

.im good at R6:V all i use is my FAMAS with a 6xscope. Headshots all day.

also, a sniper is actually pretty hard to use, so if you can master it ill call you good.

The only good part about halo 2's story is that the covenant got pwned thanks to the brutes. But that could have been done in 5 minutes. The plot was the some thing as halo 1. The crisis was the same and the method to resolve it was the same.
Not to mention the halo development team doesnt give a crap about how practical the plasma weapons are. Plasma, for those who dont know, is really freaking hot gas. Hydrogen plasma is the coldest that is known, and it exists at 4000 degrees C, and thats considered cold plasma. Now, since plasma behaves like a gas, as soon as it is realesed from a 'plasma rifle' it would start to dissipate, especially since a moving object creates an area of low air pressure around it, which would make it dissipate even quicker. Not to mention that gas leaving a gun chamber at +4000 C would heat the gun up to the point where it would melt itself to Master Chief's suit. A plasma rifle blast may go about 10 meters before it is completely dissipated and cooled down. So essentially, the oly plasma weapon the game could allow (if they cared about how things work) is a plasma based flamethrower.

the suit has an overshield and is made of an unknown armor therefore one plasma shot is not enough to kill chief according to halo CE 2 plasma shots will kill a civilian.Bungie has stated that the campaign did suck because of lack of time and capabilites of xbox but halo 3 will be no walk in the park.And chill out man its science FICTION that means an imagination is required.

Science fiction should still follow the laws of physics. ever watch star trek? Those guys were fucking geniuses. Remember 'The Voyage Home'? Clear Aluminum? Back then we thought it was barely possible, but now scientists can manufacture small amount of transparent aluminum. Its called Aluminum Oxynitride if you care to look it up. Star Trek used a transporter, which is actually possible. Scientists have transferred tiny amounts of gold atoms a few meters. Its not much, but i can still be done.
I miss the days when people put lot of effort in their work. I dont care if bungie didnt have time. The customer shouldnt have to suffer the loss because the developers didnt give themselves enough time.

but its not all their fault limited time could have ended the series and they did a good enough job keeping it going and limited xbox capabilities are not thier fault either due to them signing with microsoft.
