Is it the Needler? If there is no cover within a few feet, you are already dead.

I actually don't mind the needler as much as the weapon I was thinking of, which is the SAW, of which there are usually 3 per game, with enormous reserve ammo and way too long a range for it's damage. Such an obnoxious addition, the AR is bad enough as it is.

Unless I'm holding one. Then all the needles just scatter in random directions ;P

That weapon is scary as hell. Not much you can do about it once its headed your way, provided you don't have something between you and those needles. Just, welp.

But yeah, the SAW is a whole nother level of terrifying. And unless I'm packing something that can drop him in a moment, or moving with a pack, I stay away. At least its loud, so you can sometimes plan ahead. That or just listen for one of your teammates yelling "fucking bullshit!"
 
I mean I'll take down a vehicle if people are complaining about said vehicle, but it's much more fun picking off individual dudes at range.

Most Halo 4 vehicles are death traps anyway.

Some of the spawns in this game. :|

Nothing like working your way to a ramp and having 3 people spawn above you.
 
Just got off a 12 hour shift. Too tired for Halo, and only a day of Snipers left.

Same again tomorrow. Fuck.

Wtf people shitting on the AR?? I had a class with Firepower, DMR/AR combo for a long ass time and that shit rocked.

Its fun to use the AR. But then i also like using the Double Barrel shotgun in gears pre patch...

Use whatever gun you want, fuck feeling cheap or guilty Its a video game so thats just sad.
 
Don't think I've ever got this.
I've gotten four so far but I feel like getting them framed or something.

And sorry for being vague - you get a retribution medal for assassinating the player that killed you last.

But if I liked it off the bat, does it mean I am a bad person?
Yes. If you like it you're an ignorant bad person who never liked Halo, and if you're disappointed with it you're a hypocritical asshole. This is only according to my notes, so I might be missing something.

Lazy Sunday morning. Thinking I'm going to finish the campaign again today... after what feels like forever grinding to SR-52, I'm a little burnt out on matchmaking. So glad that they're releasing DLC early for this game - should make things a bit more interesting
 
I know I am posting this at the exact wrong time, but I am new to halo and would love to find some people to play through reach at some point. :)

I am ordering Halo 4 and ODST as well.

Anyone feel like playing with a beginner?
 
Does splattering feel inconsistent or is it just me?
I've only noticed problems when the game is laggy. Then everybody seems to have splatter specific overshields.

Of course when I'm driving the hog and trying to navigate around a teammate at 5 mph even the slightest sideways glance will kill.

Funny thing is, the more I play the better I'm getting at jumping over oncoming ghosts. Still need to work on my mid-air spinning plasma grenade twirl though.

One last bit - laggy games can be pretty damn deadly. Had two matches last night where I was flying the banshee around minding my own business (OK, maybe not), only to be instantly teleported into some cave to look at my crumpled body on the floor before hearing "suicide". I'll try and record it if it happens again because I'm damn curious whats going on here. Am I teleporting in front of the banshee and running myself over? Teleporting into a mountain? Who knows.

When you get H4 I'll play with you, my reach copy is KIA, haha.

Would the explosives upgrade thingy effect the sticky detonator? I don't want to say the damage seems inconsistent, but it may explain a few of my experiences.
