Wow. Some fanbase I chose to be a part of.

I wish I could just be playing Custom Games on Reach again instead of this....
Then why aren't you?
Because no one plays Reach anymore.
For somebody not wanting to make stupid assumptions, you sure are contradicting yourself.
Of course I am singled out for making an obvious exaggeration. One that the vast majority of people here on this site, and elsewhere have made about any game that has a very low population.

If you find my exaggeration unsatisfactory, let me know, and I'll be happy to edit it.

#AlwaysAngryAllTheTime

Yep because we are being blatantly lied to and 343 won't swallow their pride.

Give me a few good reasons why sprint is good for halo.

I gotta go to walmart, but when I get back I'll easily refute every point anyone makes.
Lied to about what? They gave the statistics. They made their decision. The point of a poll is to read what you're choosing before voting. You can even go back and change every option you made before submitting the survey.

They are idiotic because they agree with your opinion?

They are idiotic because they are casuals.
But they don't want Sprint, and they cry for classic Halo gameplay. So how are they casual again?

Because they request things such as 32v32 BTB.
How is BTB a bad thing again? It doens't even concern what you like about Halo.

All I see you saying is that they're idiotic because they're different than you.

Nothing is bad about BTB, I actually play 90% of my games in BTB.

But trying to get halo 32v32 is a joke.

You realize that BTB for Halo is casual in nature right?

Like, it's the most casual thing about Halo's MP.

BTB.net brotha.

Competitive BTB is where its at. Its easily the most fun I've ever had playing Halo.

righttttttttt
Let me get this straight. Your primary method of fun on Halo is in BTB on BTB.net's Tournaments and gamedays. If sprint is now toggleable, you'll never have to deal with it again because you're operating primarily in BTB.

And then its completely different from the vanilla BTB playlist. So people are less likely to watch BTB.net tournaments.
Who the shit cares who's watching the tournaments if you're the one playing and having fun? If Sprint is so widely regarded as being detrimental to Halo, then why do people want it in custom tournaments where they now have the ability to change that shit?

I care and the competitive community all cares.

We want tournament settings to be as close as possible to the vanilla matchmaking settings. Ex: LoL and Cod.
So then fucking play with Sprint if it's in the game! If the competitive community refuses to edit it out even if it takes a huge shit on the game, why are you even in that community?

Thats my point. Waypoint is known for being a huge causal community. And even the non-competitive folk can see why sprint needs to be removed.
That logic doesn't make much sense.

If they are idiotic, then how are their opinions credible?

Methinks you are proclaiming they are right because one opinion largely coincides with your own.
No, the thing that makes them idiotic is how casual they are and despite them being casuals, even they can see why Sprint is horrible.
The backwards logic is dizzying.

The stat has everything to do with marketing. They want the classic fans to buy H5. They think if they toggle sprint, it will make them.
I don't see a correlation between the point and the argument you're making.

Based on what you're saying, it'd be better to not announce the changes being made to the game based off the beta because it's a "blatant" marketing tactic. Shit, you could argue that removing sprint entirely is a marketing tactic. Anything is a marketing tactic if you try hard enough. Same with everything being a gimmick if you try hard enough.

Why would I abandon the franchise? I'm better at every game than you are and I've been playing longer than you have. If anyone should abandon the franchise, its you.
How good you are doesn't mean shit if you aren't having fun. You have contested a significant amount of decisions 343i has made. You didn't and don't enjoy the past few Halo games. Nothing indicates they are going to make the kind of Halo you want any time soon in the future.

I mean, you can suffer in turmoil and anger if you want, but there's no point if you're not enjoying it anymore.

I don't know why you're suggesting I do. I've enjoyed the franchise past and present, and I'm enjoying the firction it is going in.

The question. Its ELEMENTARY to skew the stats from that question!
The shit is skewed about that question? It's very clear cut. Also, congradulations on breaking the terms of use.

Whats skewed?

Theres 3 options that are anti-sprint.

Yet 343 only posted the most extreme option and claimed it was 11%. I'd pay good money to find out what the Percentage of all 3 of those options are.

I'd bet my life its somewhere close to 75%-25% in favor of No Sprint.
And how do you know which one they chose? Pro-tip: You don't. Nor do you have the evidence to back that up.

11% number is a flat out lie.

343 just don't get it. They can't swallow their pride and make a better game.

What a joke.
"The results from the HCFP surveys showed that nearly 11% of HCFP participants felt that Halo should not have sprint."

Statistics don't lie PSU. Suck it up and accept it.

LOL @ 11% don't want sprint in Halo...sorry, I don't believe that shit. 11% is not a big enough number for them to add toggles, that number is much higher.

Stop believing everything you read. My company misconstrues stats all the time. Its actually a big part of my job in marketing.
First off, this statistic has nothing to do with marketing.

2nd do you have a credible source on 11% not being enough to add a toggle option? Do you want them to not add a toggle option?

Shit PSU, just abandon the damn franchise. They're not going to make the game you want.

You want the Halo 5 Development Team to stop making Halo 5 and fix the MCC when there's already a team dedicated to the MCC at 343i?

Yes, because the "dedicated team" working on MCC is fucking incompetent.
They have consistently and often put out updates in an attempt to fix the game. In Frebuary a new update is coming out that completely overhauls the system to fix it.

I'm aware of their updates.

They also said the December update would overhaul everything too. We all know how that worked.
You got a source for them saying they'd overhaul the system?

h2 has bullet magnetism, not aim assist

aim assist is what h3 had

just a bit of semantic clarification
Halo 2 has aim assist. Aim assist makes your reticle sticky around an enemy. A really easy test to see how much aim assist a game has is to pain the reticle over an enemy. If the screen slows down, that's the aim assist.

Halo 2 has a crap-load of aim assist, the main difference to Halo 3 is that the aim assist stops at a shorter range, as does the RRR.

What he said is true. You did try defending the horrible aim assist by saying every game aims for you. Yes games have aim assist but it's not as bad as what Halo 2 is. In that game you can barley be aiming at the person and nearly every shot makes contact. Hell the melees hit when the circle isn't even red. 
Spoiler
Spoiler
Every game after Halo 2 which is true. If you thought Halo 2 had it easy, you should play MW2. That game literally aims for you and every other game that is similar to it. Not to mention how much less skill they take compared to Halo 2.

You also tried to defend Halo 2 about how broken it is by saying every game is like that. You're saying every game is as broken as that game when a lot of games aren't.
That's because its true for the most part. How many games these day are shipped unfinished and literally broken these days? They require patches after patches before they become playable. Halo 2 received only one patch and the game worked always.
Damage control much?

Wouldn't Silentium Flood stomp though?

I'm not seeing how. The current nids in 40k are just an expiditionary force and iirc they've got 5 galaxies worth of nids on the way.

Nids are also immune to infection and logic plague.
Weren't the Flood able to warp space-time and use star-roads to throw planets and stars around like missiles?

Which isn't all that impressive when you take into account just how massive a galaxy is. For the sake of this ability not being completely worthless lets assume that these stars and planets are moving at or near light speed instead of 550 mph and let's also assume these planets are able to retain their mass, size, shape, and state of matter, also on top of that we're going to assume they don't collide with any other celestial bodies or black holes when on route to their intended targets.

If we're to use our solar local area in the galaxy as a measurement then it would take at least 4 years to hit it's closest target of you were aiming at anything outside of its own solar system.

Basically you could only use this inside a single solar system if you wanted to be able to hit anything at all and systematically destroying yourselves doesn't exactly equal victory.
So...the book made no sense at all?
No, it made sense. The Precursors just never did what LC thinks they did when moving planets and stars and altering their densities.

Not really, you're just wrong.
Would you care to actually substantiate your argument with evidence? When I have stated you were wrong, I provided rather concrete evidence to support my argument. If you want to have a "Yes! No!" argument, find someone else.

Quote
It does, that's why it was so popular.
Except that now you're repeating yourself. Halo 2 was popular even when it was severely broken and unbalanced for close to 6 months. I think that is enough evidence to refute that the competitiveness is what made it popular. Of course, once tournaments began to be held, that attracted more attention. You can really do that with any game though.

Look at Smite, the recently had a HUGE ass tournament that raked in a ton of money and attention for the game and devs, despite the fact it's arguably inferior to LoL. Call of Duty has done this before as well despite the fact it's not even that competitive.

Quote
The Rubik's Cube is a ton of fun and challenging/competitive. Just like Halo.
I would argue against how fun a Rubix cube actually is if you don't know how to solve it. As for the challenging aspect, sure but the competitiveness wasn't built into the Rubix cube. It's a construct of its fans and buyers.

Quote
The Halo trilogy has the best and most competitive gameplay. End of story m'lord.
Saying something doesn't just make it true. Show me why it's true.
If you're the type of person who doesn't consider the Halo trilogy the best, you're a lost cause to begin with. Anybody who's actually good at Halo would agree.

No, you can't. Not consistently have a huge competitive crowd of players for 2 games straight. That's really something you only see on PC gaming.

It's inherently competitive. And because it's fair and fun, that's why the Rubik's has such a huge following.

It is true. There's really nithing else to say other than the gameplay is the most balanced and fun. All the aspects that make Halo multiplayer great are absent in games not part of the trilogy.
I told you to come back with evidence if you're going to tell me I am wrong.

Go find someone else to spew rubbish at.
