... who in their right mind would rush out into the open of a big empty field on foot and not take the caves or ridge? You'd start getting shot in Halo 1 if you did that in a room full of decent players

My theory is that the H1 Pistol is balanced by the shitty H1 netcode, but that's just me. In terms of system link, Halo 1 just had good maps. The problem with Hemorrhage is that some areas aren't as deep as they were in Halo 1's Blood Gulch. Another HUGE issues with the DMR is the ranged scope it has. The Pistol in H1 had a 3x Scope, while the DMR in reach has a 5x (I think) scope, which makes it tremendously easy for a DMR user to attack from anywhere on Hemorrhage. The other weapons are more than capable of combating a DMR, it's just the DMR's range is OP simpyl because the Scope it's using gives it almost omni-range with omni-autoaim/hitscan.

lol no.

Halo 1 pistol was 2x zoom, DMR was 3x

Hilariously enough the pistol had much more auto-aim distance than the pistol in reach (IE you got the red ret standing further away), and the 2x scope made the width of the zoomed auto-aim of the pistol much, much, MUCH broader than the DMR's 3x zoom

Did I slip into a time rift and go back 3 months? We've already discussed all this trivial nonsense. We're on to mustaches now.

Halo 1 didn't have proper mustache code and that's why the new mustache seems overpowered.

What the fuck.

Just to add:

The Halo 1 pistol was also pretty balanced on Xbox, so the PC netcode has nothing to do with it. Bullet flight time does, though, since that is present on both PC and Xbox.

No, I just think the Reach pistol for HA10 presently has its fire rate capped too a tad high. It's not that much higher, and it isn't normally fired so fast anyways, but because it's there it makes it feel weird.

Fake E: Pooky, he's hounding you because in previous conversations over this subject, you were frothing at the mouth because of how retarded DMR spam is in Halo Reach due supposedly to bloom and its infinite range. Your phrasing is catching up to you.

ohhh. oh wait so spam is good now? I seem to recall you at some point during your constant, never-ending nit-picking of everything Reach calling the dmr a noob spammer's dream gun or something similar

Nit picking would imply I was picking on tiny, scattered flaws of the game. Reach has massive, all encompassing flaws.

And no, I didn't. I said that having the ability to rapidly spam the DMR in close quarters was annoying and unnecessary (because you can get random lucky headshots), but further stated, CONSTANTLY, that the real issue with the DMR was its range and base accuracy. Of course, people don't actually read my posts before they bitch about them so everyone just kept harping on the bloom thing.

Most people who criticize Reach do nit-pick because there really aren't that many issues with the game.
