I always felt so alone in Halo 2 (which is still my favorite) when I told people I preferred starting with the SMG. I loved picking up the different variety of weapons and seeing how different the gameplay was. I said the same about the assault rifle starts in Infinite. People said I was nuts. I played a little in the competitive scene in Halo 2, and the BR starts got boring to me. Glad I wasn’t alone 😅 Halo 2 was my favorite gameplay mechanic wise (even though they were broken AF) but Halo 3 had the best overall content for sure.

YESSS!!! THIS!. starting with the battle rifle ALWAYS ruins Halo. Shyway keeps promoting the idea that the precision meta should always be the core of Halo's gunfights.... That's bullshit and Malachy. Halo is best when the sandbox facilities how you want to play. Battle rifle starts forces you to keep the battle rifle because you'd always not want to be at a disadvantage. and you'll never need the pistol or assault rifle. EVEN in ranked/pro play.

Halo Infinite's MP is a sweet juicy chocolate cake wrapped in a layer of fish skin that is the progression and monetization model. The cake itself is SO GOOD once you get past that smelly outer layer, but even if you're willing to completely ignore it, that occasional hint of fish finds it's way into the chocolatey goodness and reminds you how much better it could be.

@@michaelzuniga3008 playable elites are something I want but also something even Bungie was moving away from in reach (elites got shafted in reach). Dual wielding caused a shit ton of balancing issues in 2 and 3 to the point Bungie realized it wasn’t worth trying to work around. The paying for armor thing is just sort of a “deal with it” part of it being free to play. There’s no way it would be as widely accessible to mainstream audiences if it cost $60. The store prices have been fixed and the battle pass is continually being improved. And to be perfectly honest, color customization has always sucked and never mattered outside of a handful of modes. At least here you can actually see them. While the options should be expanded, it’s not like color customization was at all an important part of Halo’s multiplayer. The gameplay is the best in the series IMO, and the fact you can’t really knock the core gameplay that much is a testament to the game’s quality.

A tip with the pulse Carbine: It’s actually what the precision weapons were meant to be. You have to get back as far as you can, and then try and get the crosshair to turn red, then fire it, and maintain the crosshair being red and it will just track like the needler. It’s meant to be a long ranged weapon. I’d recommend trying it on the big watch tower thing on live fire.

At first I hated the Disrupter but now always pick it up; it feels quick like the Sidekick, and while its Damage Over Time can get some satisfying From the Graves like the Needler, its MOST important feature is how long the shields go down after you pop 'em, so if you don't secure the kill it can give your team more opportunity or at the very least take an enemy out of the fight while they tuck and wait for recharge. Also there's the vehicle disable, and chain damage good for clusters like in objective modes, all around a very versatile and underrated weapon.

Great video as always Act Man! Two things you may have gotten wrong though: 1. The Shock Rifle is not the weapon made to replace the Spartan Laser, the Skewer is. It takes the no-skill laser vehicle kill weapon, and replaces it with a weapon that requires precision, actually leading your shots and accounting for distance and fall off. 2. In the Banshee clip you showed of you getting "2 shot" by a sniper, you actually got shot by 2 sniper shots, some small arms fire from an AR, and a Skewer to finish off your vehicle (look at the kill feed). Just some small errors I noticed from the video. I also think that the Sidekick is way too overpowered for a starting weapon, but it isn't one in ranked so it doesn't really matter to me and it is also just my opinion. I love to see your Halo content, keep making it awesome dude!

I had trouble with the AR start at first, till I realized the Sidekick is as good as it is, after that I enjoyed the gameplay a lot. The thing I don't enjoy though, are the stupid challenges it makes you do. Us not having the ability to pick what mode we do, makes specific ones really difficult to accomplish. I have been told you can do them against A.I unless it specifically says otherwise, but even then I really don't like that I have to do chores essentially to obtain a slight EXP boost on a battle pass. I think the way that Warframe handled its battlepass was a bit better, but not perfect and it wouldn't work with Halo. If they approached a more "Achievement" based EXP system that works with core gameplay, I think it would work better. If it said: "Earn 50 kills with a BattleRifle, 100 EXP" and then "Earn 100 kills with a Battle Rifle 150 EXP" and so on, it would actually reward you for just playing, and it would incentivize players to grab weapons they are not comfortable with. Because as it stands, you have to go out of your way, to SPECIFICALLY not do what you want, which in most people's case is "play" most people enjoy just playing the game and having fun, the Battle Pass quests should not drive you completely away from that main goal of playing and having fun. I'm no expert, but seeing as how the current set up is literally ruining the game for a lot of people I know to be hardcore fans, means something is very very wrong.

But in the end we have a mode specifically for br starts. And the maps have enough precisions weapons that it is not the end of humanity.

For the Segment on Assault Rifle Starts 23:34 - I like this system perfectly! Ranked matches start with a BR, and any other casual play starts with the AR. I think the BR is absolutely cracked on anyone who can land all 7(4 for perfect) burst shots, cause thats the TTK(Time to Kill) and it shoots rather fast. The AR spitballs all its shots in a higher rate of fire, which if landed all your shots is on par with the BR, but very rarely would you land all 20(15 for perfect) shots. Which is perfected for competitive players in their natural habitat of Ranked Matches that start with a Competitive BR, While people who just want to have casual fun on Quick/BRB plays starts with a forgiving AR that new players will never feel ashamed to have/trade off for a better weapon. (It's the cool explosives and impressive lasers that really has me pick up any Power/Plasma/Shock Weapons. Cool blinky lights) With that debate of AR vs. BR section done, I do think alot of weapons need buffs, rather than just nerfing the AR. Here's some quick TL;DR of my impression - Note: All of the ratings are my personal opinions Rifles: MA40(AR): Perfect blend of ROF(Rate of Fire), coupled with plentiful ammo/reserves, make for great CQC action. 10/10 BR75(BR): Great Mid-Long range capabilites, with rewarding shot placements. On Par with AR in it's respective role. 10/10 VK78(Commando): Great for feather tapping, and treating it like a DMR, but its Automatic ROF is slow, and Recoil is high, with not ample enough Ammo. 6/10 *Solution Buff* Add another clip worth of ammo, and tone down the recoil and lightly push up the ROF. Pulse Carbine(Purple SMG): Insane stats on this powerful rifle, and would be effective if it didn't feel like you were launching molasses tarred marshmallows at the enemy... 3/10 *Solution Buff* Increase the projectile speed. And add more Charge to that battery to give it some longevity. Striker Rifle(Red DMR): Hard-Hitting lasers, with High Powered Scope, with good Long Range capability. 7/10 *Suggested Buff* Give it some tiny increase of damage, to make body shots feel better, while maintaining a strict balance of 2-headshot rifle. Shock Rifle: The hands of Zeus guide the same hellish thunderbolts some say. Powerful Rifle that gives S7 a run for their money. 11/10 *Nerf* Feels weird to have a rifle with insane TTK, and with the ability to have EMP aspects... Either make it 3 shots to disable a vehicle, or reduce it to a 9/9 ammo composition so it doesnt steal the thunder from a S7 Sniper Rifle POWER WEAPON... HYDRA(Explosive Rifle?): Homing Rockets, with great Vehicle/Player destruction. 9/10 Sentinel Beam(Laser Beam, duh): Falls oddly short compared to some, but rewards the greatest of marksmen. 8/10 *Suggested Buff* Ease down on the recoil a tiny bit, perfect weapon. Ravager(Grenade Launcher): Giant Block of Blob on your right screen that pastes enemies red with meatballs. Charge the weapon to slightly cook your pasted meatball'd Spartans. 2/10 *Solution Buff* What Act Man said... Revert it to normal with a higher splash radius(if any at all??), and pump up the damage on the charged shot. Pistols: MK 51 SideKick: Aptly named, Great Swap/Backup weapon. Doesn't feel too strong to compared to the magnum, but with great skill longer range can be acquired. 9/10 Needler(Technically smg?): Honestly the best place Needlers been, slight homing needles like a swarm of wasps are shot at you. 5/10 *Solution Buff* Just increase the homing projectiles a bit more, it lacks even in CQC compared to other Dominaters. Mangler: Absolutely busted with 1 shot/melee combo, but with projectile drop and slowness, makes the roles feel reversely powered. 6/10 *Solution Buff* Make it a 2-shot/melee combo, and increase the damage to 3 shots(2 head), would do wonders I think. Plasma Pistol: While I do think the roles of Plasma weapons is to deteriorate your enemies shields, the damage on body contact feels ABYSMAL. 2/10 *Solution Buff* Please for the love of god buff the damage. Doesnt have to be strong, but it give it more so it can at least compete with SideKick... Disruptor(Shock Pistol): I love this weapon, but it screws the pooch. Shoot mini tasers that disrupt shield recharge and begin to tick away shield/health, but it's damage falls short. 4/10 *Solution Buff* Increase the damage, but disperse it with longer tase times, so they would kill in less shots, but over a long period of time. Offset the Shot to kill, and how long it shocks players. Also add more Shock Damage to vehicles to replace the shock rifles EMP role. Shotguns: Theres only 2 CQS48 Bulldog: Oh how they massacred my boy... Its a shotgun, but it doesnt feel like the old bulldog but still... It's a shotgun. 5/10 *Solution Buff* Make it a 1 shot, but with slight longer range than the Energy Sword Lunge, so it gives Sword users some competition. Heatwave: Fantastic weapon, ricochet shots for impressive, and crowd killing plays! However it feels depreciating... 6/10 *Solution Buff* Give it more bounces for the ricochets, and make it only required 10 blobs to kill instead of all 12, then it's perfect. POWER WEAPONS: MK1 SPKNR(Rocket Launcher): You know it, you love it, you repulse it so much you love it. 10/10 S7 Sniper: It might be just me, but this Sniper does not have many faults at all, and I think it's perfect where it's at. 10/10 Skewer: Think of it as a 45mm tank gun you just yanked off from WW1 that shoots AP Rounds. 8/10 *Suggested Buff* Amp up the Reload speed a bit and it's perfect. Energy Sword: Their everywhere... Grapple Hooks and Sword... The horror... 10/10 Gravity Hammer: GrAv HaM gO < B) O) N) K) 10/10 Cindershot: 1 bounce boom balls that boom immediately with direct contact with Spartan. Control Boom Ball with Aim to Manual guide Boom. 9/10 ======== Hey thanks for reading this :)

Why should the non-power weapon bulldog compete with CQC power weapons such as the hammer or sword?
@generaldemian5370
2 жыл бұрын
Really good feedback, I agree with almost every one of the suggestions, except for the Bulldog and AR. The Bulldog is a non-power weapon shotgun, making it viable but not OP. I think it is in a nice place right now, not replacing the old shotgun, but adding to the standard loadout. But I do agree that in CQC the sword has no equal, so maybe bring back the old shotgun, next to the bulldog, as a power weapon? The AR is really nice rn, but I think not a 10/10. I'd give it an 8/10, since it kills slightly too fast imo. Atm it is hard to compete against it on mid and close range, unless you have really good aim vs mediocre aim. Tone down the dmg a tad tiny bit and it would be 10/10. Just comparing visions, no hard facts here, just opnions :p

I read an IGN article about Halo Infinite yesterday, and copied a quote from the article that I thought was a perfect encapsulation the entire opinion of the article titled "How Halo infinite's Equipment Reshapes Its Golden Triangle" And that quote is as follows: " Equipment changes the ebb and flow of firefights just as they did in Halo 3. But clever design coupled with limited uses means they fill a similar role as power weapons. 343 turns the classic melee-grenade-gun golden triangle... into a pyramid." As far as the multiplayer gameplay and sandbox is concerned, I believe 343 may have finally released a true Halo game. Now we just got to see about that campaign

@VaderxG "All the reasons are basically nitpicky." What? How is being forced to play modes you hate and having no way to play modes you like a nitpick? How is challenge system that actively encourages players to throw matches a nitpick? I could go on but these are still major issues and not minor nitpicks. "Especially when we have the more ethical version of MTX, we aren't P2W at the very least" Being slightly better than terrible is still incredibly bad. I'm not against 343 having microtransactions, but completely gutting the customization system in order to charge $8 for the color blue on individual armor cores is still outrageously unethical and anti-consumer.

On the whole tire and fruit physics thing, I do think these comparisons are useful if the game is selling itself on detail (i.e. Crowbcat tearing into Cyberpunk), but Halo at its best is a series about having fun while still looking reasonably good. Hyperrealism in games is cool, but it usually doesn’t lead to a vastly better product.

I agree. People don’t even know what realism is. Just played Gears 2 and 3 yesterday and I loved that 3 has more color and less slathered with crisco shaders. They even redid the models so they could actually express a smile when animating instead of being in a permanent angry face. Original COD4 also had that issue of supposed gritty realism. Everything just looks brown.

10:43 the pulse carbine works in a really unique way that solves the problem of precision weapons being op and good at every range. The way it works is the at close range, the bullet tracking usually doesn't work well, and it's really hard to use. But if you move back to medium range, you'll notice that it only takes like 2 burst to kill someone and the tracking works really well. I think a lot of people don't get the way it works and that's why they think it suck. Ascend hyperion made a really good video about this on his channel.

Sure… if your target is at the correct range and is standing still. If they are too close: 3/4 of the shots miss If they are too far: tracking doesn’t take hold If they are a smart player: they are moving back and forth so your tracking shots miss. Face it, the gun has an interesting idea (long range needler) but currently it’s damage, handling, and overall use is trash. If the assault rifle is more useful then the gun has no use

Disruptor is widely misunderstood, it will kill in 6 shots if you land all 6 shots. 5 shots will peel off all shields and start to bleed the health out and the 6th shot will do enough tick damage to secure the kill, it feels underpowered unless you can land all 6 shots without missing or getting slapped first then it feels pretty strong while you watch the enemy run away and tick to death
