If i lose a 1v1 firefight with an opponent 90% of the time its because i missed timed the bloom. Stop spamming the trigger is most peoples problems.
I remember Sage saying in a Vidoc he wanted Halo to have a more 'messy' feel, and I think peoples frustrations from bloom come down to this.
Fair enough its easy to 4 shot someone to no shields, and its actually easy to wait for the bloom to go down enough for the headshot, but when you factor in armour abilities/ teamates/ enemies theres a whole host of reasons why bloom can screw you over, even if you can control it.
Then theres lag, I get a lot of 'bloodshots' in some games, and if it was Halo 3 I would presume those games just had a bad host, but in Reach im not sure whether or not its lag or I hit them in the shoulder or something.
So yeah I dont think its fair to jump on the whole dslgunstar must suck bandwagon, bloom leads to messy encounters at times, leaving games because of this though is whats wrong.
