Mat Logan Posted March 10, 2020 Trying MCC CE on PC right now. Doesn't feel any better than MCC Xbox. Also, is it me or competitive 2s aren't playable at the moment? Quote Share this post Link to post
Riddler Posted March 10, 2020 17 hours ago, Arlong said: You know I’ve said this before but the reason McC sniper is probably easier, is because of the Xbox one controller(which let’s be honest it’s way better than the OG one in every way, and the 60fps+(60 only on console). In h3 it was harder to snipe on 360, but it’s way easier on McC because of the 60fps and controller(many will say 360 was better but that’s just the bumpers I’d say the analog sticks are better on the one. Ur worse than the waypoint kids. >Not have played ce >claim whats dif on mcc compared to og yeah ok. The difference is the hitbox or perceived hitbox when moving. You can lead a full reticle ahead or behind where as on og you generally wanted it 80% on the head and 20% ahead of the direction. Leading any amount behind would never give you a headshot and leading full reticles is xbc shit. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Ok then that’s a hit box difference, it’s not exactly hard to get your reticule on someone and hit them here. Quote Share this post Link to post
Basu Posted March 10, 2020 Arlong there's a flashlight in CE for a reason. 1 2 1 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

Probably right. 1 hour ago, Basu said: Arlong there's a flashlight in CE for a reason. That just makes it easier to see if someone is aiming at you with one. That doesn’t mean you can do shit if they hit you already. Quote Share this post Link to post
Snipe Three Posted March 11, 2020 I think the random Reach DMR spread on the CE pistol in 4s/BTB is probably the worst experience in MCC. Its crazy when you go search 4s because you can't find a 2s game and people are immune to bullets when your gun quits working at random lol 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Hully Posted March 11, 2020 I played MCC for the first time since Reach launched last night. Am I crazy or did the framerate take a massive dive or something? Quote Share this post Link to post

You will miss that shot 10/10 times on LAN. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
_Synapse Posted March 11, 2020 The more time I spend sharing my existence with that of the CEA PC release, the worse my opinion of the whole push to release on PC grows. 343i's been getting feedback on the bastardized ports on MCC for more than 5 years now, yet their first major step is to waste time adding Reach to MCC, and putting said terrible ports on PC. If the higher-ups at 343i cared enough to restore the games to their original states, then we could have had all the games in their ideal states by late 2018-early 2019. Instead, we're still seeing anti-aim on CEA PC and the last major tournaments were Halo: Reach. Is it possible to be optimistic as a competitive Halo player? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Knighty Knight Posted March 11, 2020 I've resorted to an attitude of "Cautionary Realism". I'll never be pessimistic - it's just not who I am. But I've lived through enough mistakes and misfortune that I plan for the worst and shoot for the best. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Lol, now imagine it's sixteen years ago in november and you'd been playing CE for 3 years strong, mastering the depths of is game play. How do you react when the sequel is H2 and those depths have suddenly become a shallow pond, plus every subsequent release moving further and further away from the precedent of the original? 4 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
Knighty Knight Posted March 12, 2020 No more Assault Rifle. No more Pistol. Battle Rifle is a 6 shot minimum due to spread. It takes 8 beatdowns to kill someone full shield. The overshield is now visible. The camo is now visible. It feels like you run slower on smaller maps. The radar never disappears off your HUD. The graphics seem worse. The plasma rifle and plasma pistol don't freeze anymore. Oh boy, it took me a while to get over that one. PS. The noob combo.. 5 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

I appreciate H2's gameplay for what it is, though it most definitely ruined most of what made CE great. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
Hard Way Posted March 12, 2020 Never forget how much of a struggle it was to get BR starts. That might have been the worst part. Launch H2 was AWFUL. The only thing I miss was Clan Matches. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

If I only search H3 I can't find any matches, but if I select H1-4 I get in H3 matches pretty quickly. Makes no sense. Quote Share this post Link to post
