Agreed. People who are getting worked by Thorn need to really work on their strafe. I have had zero problems with Thorn. Period. I know this is a crazy concept to the entitlement generation but sometimes--just maybe--it was your fault and you could have preformed better.

  • Thank you. I love the strafe game. I think large portion of the player base doesn't even do it though. If I die in strikes or raids and watch other players, a lot of them just stand planted in one spot while they shoot something. I'm constantly moving around.

  • I think being a Halo veteran helps immensely. In halo your strafe was what won you battles a lot of the time. I'm just dumbfounded by the complaining in this community. Thorn is strong but it's definitely beatable. People make it seem like all you need to do is close your eyes and shoot and voila you've killed someone. Yes, thorn is two shots to the head for a kill but try doing that against someone who knows what they're doing. Were it so easy. I'm really not sure why I come to these forums anymore--all they do is make me rage lol.

  • 100% correct. I played halo 2 a huge amount and did quite a bit of traveling to play it. In a BR fight a good and unpredictable strafe was a massive advantage. It always shocks me when people run at you and shoot and even worse stand still and snipe.

  • I know lol but it helps if you start muting the fools. I didn't think about being a Halo vet. You're probably right. Most of the CoD players who've moved over don't do that, because CoD is all about reflexes. You usually don't even have time to strafe
