[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Zomechin [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik It keeps trigger spammers from appearing to have more skill than they do.[/quote]By bringing forth inconsistency? Yes, infallible logic. It's as if you skipped over the OP completely. Recoil and bloom have the same goal, but while bloom only fulfills its goal inconsistently, recoil fulfills it 100% of the time. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik The only people asking for bloom to be removed from Reach are panic patrol and people who JUST got beat down, decided to get on the forum and then made a thread to complain about it...[/quote]Oh, really? Let's take a look at [url=http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/Default.aspx?player=ZomeChiiN]this.[/url] First note: "Last played October 18th" Second: "Victory Streak -- 25" Obviously this is an act of impulse from rage due to my inability to adapt, seeing as [i]I've very recently played this game and very recently lost[/i]. (The italicized is sarcasm, by the way.) [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik ...instead of spending that time learning how to PACE your shots.[/quote]God, are you really that ignorant to what's being complained about here? [i]I[/i] know how to pace my shots. [i]Everyone[/i] knows how to pace their shots; it isn't very hard at all. In fact, my 96 year-old grandma could learn how to effectively pace her shots with due time. The problem is [url=http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=21774689&player=ZomeChiiN]this.[/url] If you don't see a problem with this, you honestly should probably just stop right now because you have no grasp of the game, but to be fair, I'll outline the problem: [i]You don't have to pace.[/i] Spamming can and will net you undeserved kills, and in a very inconsistent manner. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik ZB will be just like the BR.[/quote]First off, your use of future-tense leads me to believe that you are unaware that ZB already exists in Reach. Secondly, no, it's actually nothing like the BR, Halo 3's or Halo 2's. A single-shot weapon with zero recoil and an extremely fast RoF, shot against enemies with an extremely low movement acceleration, is [i]nothing[/i] like the BR. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik Panicy little noobs will use it to nullify all weapons in the game and go "SHOOT SHOOT OH SHOOT OH OH OH SHOOT!!!" as soon as they see an enemy. They will then get lucky roughly half the time and it will make them feel better about their meager Halo skills. [/quote]There is nothing to be said to this post, except: LOL. I'm sorry; you have no competitive grasp of Halo. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik They come on to these forums and complain about bloom using terminology they don't understand, nomenclature that heard in a Youtube video and ill-conceived ideas they heard from other people who panic when the get into a firefight.[/quote]I'd like some examples for your claims. Thanks. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik It's the same kids (yes kids) who RAILED against Armor Lock because they had not the wit to counteract it. They got owned by someone with patience, got upset, and came to the forums to RAIL against Armor Lock.[/quote]Oh, God, someone is [i]still[/i] defending that abomination? Isn't it ironic that those who complain about it are statistically the best? Nah. I also like how you used the word "counteract," implying that there is a way to counteract Armor Lock -- well, at least [i]was[/i]; 343 has proven competence by actually providing somewhat of a counter against it. I also like how the basis of your claims and logic is basically "people are bad and they can't adapt." No, seriously, that's basically your entire argument all of the time, and it's funny because [i]you[/i] don't hold true to it; [i]you're[/i] horrible and cannot adapt. So, it's really funny because, first off, your argument is based off of retarded standards, and yet [i]you[/i] even break said standards. It's really quality stuff. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik Bloom is the same. The people hating on it are children who can't learn to calm themselves (at least some of the time) in order to pace their shots. They are also the same little person who yells into the mic.[/quote]There's that quality logic, once again. You do realize that there are dozens of older players as well who show complete and utter disdain toward bloom? What a totally uneducated generalization. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Swamptik The loud, immature children will always make the most noise and get the most results post launch. [/quote]"Something isn't my way so __________." <--- Put excuse in there, in your case "loud immature children are the reason that bloom is complained about a lot, simply because I like it and I d-ride Bungie all day."[/quote] QFT
