Squeaky Wheel Versus Phalanx Shield of Death

This is just an idea, and I'm hoping I'm not the only one who has experienced this, but think the Dev team could do some physics tweaking on the Phalanx jerks? Let me paint the picture real quick... You're fighting a load of Cabal in a strike (be it regular, heroic, nightfall) or even in a simple patrol or mission and you find yourself versus the Phalanx. Now they're fairly easy to take down, but every now and then you're bound to get hit by one. Doesn't sound too bad right? Well like some of the physics issues we've run into in past Halo games, more than often I find that when I DO get hit by said phalanx shield, I tend to go flying across the map. During that unfortunate situation, sometimes I can get out of becoming a wall decoration by using my jump to help slow me down. Often though I find that the Destiny physics are just too powerful and I become someone's wall poster. In other cases its a situation of being stuck between a Cabal in a hard place. I've had incidents where I could shield shoulder shrugged (not too big of a hit), but I'm unfortunate enough to be too close to a wall and I get glitched to where I am quite literally sandwiched to death. I am currently working with my fire team buddies to get footage of these cruddy incidents and will create a video to help further emphasize my point. I do feel that this is just one of many physics issues i the game that could use some tweaking, so we can all further avoid being killed by the Architects. For those of you reading this know what im talking about, please like, share and bump this thread and feel free to share your experiences in the comments section below. If you know of any other threads discussing this particular topic, please also feel free to share the link to said thread in the comments section :D Sincerely, -The Squeaky Wheel who has been a wall poster one too many times. EDIT: If you, the people have any videos of such craziness, please feel free to share them!

  • I have a beautiful video example. It just happened to me while playing the Daily Story. It's always funny when it happens lol.

    • I personally think it's hilarious but it's gotta be a glitch or something. Getting hit in the face by a shield from a phalanx doesn't hurt so much as the impact if hitting the wall does. That can't be right. Did get to experience the joy of watching a captain teleport and body-check my friend so hard he flew into a rock and died.

    • Sometimes the phalanx are the ones that go flying, it happened to me a few times XD and you go flying because the phalanx are whispering FUS ROH DA! As they lung foward at you.

    • It's a shame this post didn't get nearly the amount of bumps as my post about the D-Pad lol.
