I personally am appauled by Bungie's move to eliminate those good combos from the game simply because noobs are whining about them. I am actually starting to see why many don't like Halo 2, Bungie wants to make it to where the noobs can match up against the elite players. They have elimated all need for skill in the game, besides tracking the targets, and have made it more pray and spray than true skill. I know I am not alone in this, and personally, they have even further ruined the Halo 2 experience. Thanks a bunch Bungie!!!
