[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SoonToBeNinja [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] privet caboose The Laser completely destroyed vehicular combat in Halo 3, so I'd be pretty damn happy if it was gone. Halo 3 had; -Laser -Rockets -Missile pod =Power Drainer -Tripmine -Grenades -Human turret -Plasma Turret -Brute shot -PLASMA PISTOL. All anti-vehicle weapons. Halo 2 had; -Homing Rockets -Brute Shot -Grenades Halo CE Had; -Rockets -Grenades For Reach, we've seen; -Rockets -Grenade Launcher -Plasma Grenade Launcher -grenades Already we've got enough anti-vehicle weapons. The laser ruined vehicles, and rendered them useless. On a map like Valhalla, the entire map was turned into infantry map rather than a vehicle map. That's the main reason why Valhalla fails as a spiritual successor to Coagulation. Coag focused on vehicles, and Valhalla focuses on the Laser. [/quote] good post but obvious fail here. Valhalla is a spiritual sucessor of [b]blood gulch[/b], of which coag is also. Go play halo 1 for while, maybe a few lan matches and you'll see why there's a big difference. I do agreee though that Valhalla does fail as a successor of BG because in all honesty it was based on vehicular gameplay and Bungie put every anti-vehicle weapon on the the map that was supposed to focus on vehicle gameplay the most. On topic I would like to see the the splazer gone, although it did do one thing correct in that it severely hindered cqc use. I think 3-5 anti-vehicle weapons is more than enough. And the splazer takes little to no nessecary skill at mid-long range. Its just too unbalanced. Each base spawns with the same vehicles for a reason. but the reason becomes pointless and the gameplay unblanced as soon as you add a weapon that can take out as many as 5 vehicles. each only needing a single shot. it's awesome but too much.[/quote] I'll have to refute you on this. Further away the target, the harder it is to hit. MUCH HARDER. One, you have to *slightly* lead the target and account for the *slight* jump and pause the laser gives when fired. It's barely there, but enough to throw off a shot. The reticule doesn't help much either. It's a -blam!- to aim that thing accurately at a distance. Possible with practice, but hard. Finally,90% of the time, when I see people get killed by a laser, it is because A.) They attempt to rush/splatter the laser man B.) Are not keeping a track of their surrounding C.) Flying, in the open, up high, with a Banshee, when the laserman has a clear shot. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR SHEER STUPIDITY
