Explain why You Hate Bloom.

I find it a bit more realistic. Bullet spread would happen at a higher rate of fire. EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT Actually I now understand how bloom should have been. What one of yous said down below or something, the mechanics of bloom and how it should have been. Guys, really? This thread is way too serious... Like, stop commenting...

Or having to stop fighting because you gotta take a piss? Or hell, you're firing a USMC weapon and it jams? Screw realism.

  • I don't hate Bloom, I hate its current mechanics. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHGItn8JCz0]How Bloom should have been[/url]. You shouldn't be rewarded for spamming, that goes against the entire purpose of Bloom.

  • I like bloom when I am in a vehicle and dislike it when I am not. The solution is obvious - 0% bloom for me and 200% for everyone else.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Akamia179 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Ich Blitz [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Bartybum I find it more realistic.[/quote] This is Halo. [/quote] So? Realism would raise the skill gap. In fact, anything in real life is more skillful than Halo. Or any video game, for that matter. This is why I believe this to be true.[/quote] Any other video game is more skillful than halo because halo is unrealistic? You are a funny man.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] tsujen [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Bartybum I find it more realistic. Bullet spread would happen at a higher rate of fire.[/quote] The year is 2555 not 2010. The DMR has bullet spread like a gun in the civil war. With the advanced technology they have in 2555 you would think a gun they are using would shoot straight every time and not be so random, right? [/quote] no ones arm can stay dead straight after a gun shot, its not the gun thats in accurate its the user. also I think bloom should increase that way spammers are punished and then assult rifle actually has a use compared to dmr, CQ

After all, the bigger the skill gap, the better, right?[/quote] Obviously hasn't played the updated MLG playlist.[/quote] You are correct. However, I don't need to play MLG to know what I am talking about.[/quote] I find it hard to believe than you can recognize a change in the skill gap when you get dumped on in almost every game you play. From your POV, everyone is better.[/quote] I can recognize it just fine BECAUSE I get dumped on in almost every game. It's by [i]how much[/i] I lose that I can identify this. That, and I have a little brother who is much better at the game than me.[/quote] Wait a minute Daisy. How one can justify the non-randomness of Bloom when one has a negative KD and almost no experience playing the game, is beyond my comprehension. Stop arguing about something you have no knowledge of.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Bartybum I find it more realistic. Bullet spread would happen at a higher rate of fire.[/quote] The DMR seems to shoot a pretty weak round, and on top of that: it's semi-automatic with very little recoil. It's also being shot by Spartans (who are supposed to be damn strong). I don't see any realistic reasoning behind the bloom. [Edited on 12.09.2011 12:08 AM PST]

  • I hate bloom because it only works for me. Whenever I try to fire faster than the optimum RoF, I will miss shots. That doesn't seem to happen for anybody else I play. And with my Pistol, holy nuts does bloom screw me over. I simply cannot kill anything with one clip from my Magnum because bloom makes me miss 3/4 of my shots, even if I let my bloom completely reset. It's redonkulous and incredibly frustrating.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Kaiser TheGreat [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] triggerhappy964 To those who are saying bloom adds realism: Have you ever actually shot a gun or do you just play CoD? If you have ever even picked up 22, you know bloom is not realistic. [/quote] I play a lot of Battlefield so I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about when it comes to realistic guns. [/quote] Ahem, Battlefield may be the most realistic FPS game around, but that doesn't make it identical to the real world. EDIT: I hate CoD... [Edited on 12.08.2011 10:31 PM PST]

Coming to think of it, it does, :/. GUYS NEVERMIND. I REJECT MY STATEMENTS, AS I DIDN'T THINK THE BLOOM WAS THAT BAD.[/quote] But, then again, the DMR in 2555 would be pretty much the same as a gun of the equivalent in 2011. It's just physics, the force tries to push the bullet out of the barrel, making it go wherever it wants. Because it's going at approx. 1,600mph (the bullet, that is), the pushing force would direct it straighter, just because of its speed.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NinjaLord77 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Akamia179 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NinjaLord77 Best fix is to just use a different weapon all together. I like burst fire weapons better then single fire[/quote] Not so much a fix as it is an avoidance. If something's going to be put in a game, I would rather have it actually work right, instead of simply avoiding it.[/quote] Well in Reach you're stuck with it you either love it or you hate it.[/quote] How unfortunate.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Viper Skills [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Akamia179 [/quote] I am simply arguing that when people cry for realism in bloom they are being completely stupid whereas you are, at this point, arguing semantics. I don't mind 85% bloom but that's because at that point it's almost non-existent. Default Reach's bloom was poorly implemented and, for those people who cry for realism, is NOT realistic. The DMR is a joke by today's standards. How that weapon is running around as a standard issue AR in the year 2552 is beyond me. Damn budget cuts.[/quote] Hmm... I suppose that makes sense. Perhaps it's not as realistic as I thought. But then, what about if Bloom was changed so that it would send the bullet to the far left and right of the moving reticule only? Depending on the range, it would indeed decrease one's incentive to spam. Reality breaking? Sure. Acceptable? Up to you. [Edited on 12.08.2011 10:03 PM PST]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Kaiser TheGreat [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NinjaLord77 The dumb circle in the middle shouldn't be going all crazy and sh*it, I mean if it moves a tiny bit then that's OK but it goes wacko and that's not cool. Bloom is from the devil[/quote] I really like 85%, normal and 0 bloom can both BE annoying at times. [/quote] Honestly I can play with it or without but it's funner without it

  • What rifle are they gonna use for Halo 4. People won't like the DMR but if they bring back the BR then people might say that it's overused.
