What kind of tremendous retard would just toss a whole mag away when there are still rounds in it? Anyone who has even a vague idea of what they're doing will take the partially-expended (or even empty) mag out, stick it back in their bandolier, pouch, what have you, and then load a fresh one in. Nobody in their right mind would toss a good mag unless the bad guys were literally ripping it out of their hands.
I get that the MC is basically an action hero now, but he's supposed to be a trained soldier. Even untrained ones know not to just toss mags out willy-nilly.
e/ Yeah mate, remember when Fragment was in public beta and there was a thread for that too, and literally half the forum complained about how pathetically nerfed (and therefore useless) grenades were?
e some more/ You know what? I may as well go ahead and say what I've been thinking for a long time.
CMT is probably the most overrated team going. It has talented members and it produces some good content, but time after time that content is invariably butchered or simply drowned in a sea of absolute, utter shite. If you spent half as much time bringing all the visuals up to the same standard as you did adding a COMPLETELY POINTLESS, BLAND, AND VERY TEDIOUS BSP section to a level that was already the right length, SP v2 might actually be worth the hype. All I'm seeing now is a schizophrenic mod which introduces a lot of new things at the expense of the things which actually matter - gameplay, overall consistency, and FUN. Every CMT release, there's been a whole plethora of superfluous bullshit we all could've done without. It seems that the intention is to throw as much new content as possible into something with the hope of wooing over the easily-impressed dimwits at Halomaps rather than to actually produce any sort of good, coherent mod. I also love the way that some of the biggest complaints regarding the mod (aforementioned grenade issue, and now the SMG) were simply palmed off by Masters because 'I like it that way'. When members of the team itself are complaining and being ignored like the rest of us, it really makes me wonder.
If this is any indication of what I can expect for SP v2 as a whole, I'm not even going to waste my net cap downloading it. Why bother when I can have more fun just replaying the original bloody campaign? At least Bungie knew when it was time to give a lame feature the chop, thus preserving the rest of the game.
Start working to some kind of quality standard, for once. Right now the team seems to be a complete waste of talent that could be put to better use elsewhere.
