BigShow36 Posted October 22, 2015 This. Radar set up like that actually seems beneficial to competitive play. How? It's not beneficial to anyone who isn't camping. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
Cursed Lemon Posted October 22, 2015 I enjoy how people are like, "I'm okay with adding 5,000 incredibly stupid things to Halo as long as we can make them marginally less stupid, stop being so pessimistic." That's still a large net positive of stupid. 9 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Mr Grim Posted October 22, 2015 This. Radar set up like that actually seems beneficial to competitive play. it discourages the use of mechanics that the maps are balanced around, so I don't think it would really work out. Quote Share this post Link to post
CIutchy Posted October 22, 2015 So when do people get to play that have an early copy? Quote Share this post Link to post

First, sprint and radar, but next 343 will figure out how we can "nerf" loadouts to a point where people really won't mind them enough to hate them. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
xSociety Posted October 22, 2015 :cry: Makes sense. Watching a bunch of different streams today, if any of these guys went up against decent players they would be getting destroyed. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Moa Posted October 22, 2015 So when do people get to play that have an early copy? Like non-media early copies? Monday probably. ...Isn't that what the matchmaking system is for ==' Sure but I doubt there are enough people playing right now to have fast and competitive matches.

CurrY Posted October 22, 2015 So when do people get to play that have an early copy? If you mean a physical copy it looks like on release like everyone else. Quote Share this post Link to post
Nj Pro Posted October 22, 2015 id actually support radar if it doesn't show normal movement and shooting. That would really fuck sprint Man this would be sooo tricky. -Shooting and normal movement does not show on radar. -Spartan abilities and sprint show up on radar. This would add to meta in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post
Brutality Posted October 22, 2015 ...Isn't that what the matchmaking system is for ==' With so few people playing the matchmaking won't be very accurate today Quote Share this post Link to post

Brutality Posted October 22, 2015 It seems like there's either invis or OS on every map! Now if only they weren't apparently scared to put both on one map.. Quote Share this post Link to post

Banamy Posted October 22, 2015 No radar is an obvious thing. There's going to be an hcs playlist at some point with no radar Quote Share this post Link to post
kidstandout Posted October 22, 2015 i just like to put things in perspective, the only thing people are bitching about is if hcs will have radar... not sprint, abilities, weapons, maps ect but fucking radar LMAO. this game must be good if that is what people are crying about XD 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
overuled Posted October 22, 2015 It seems like there's either invis or OS on every map! Now if only they weren't apparently scared to put both on one map.. It's ok we'll just For......... Honestly from what I've watched so far I wanna play this game a lot more now. Quote Share this post Link to post

TTUVAPOR Posted October 22, 2015 Some of you guys should think before you post. Halo eSports is pretty in the whole right now. Making the game accessible while also having a pretty decent skillgap will go a LONG way towards increasing playerbase and viewership. Complaining about this is destructive. As far as radar goes, I'd HOPE since they covered up the radar at the GC invi means they won't have it during HCS tourneys, if they do? Well, just voice your opinion to @@Sal1ent. And to the guy who said "lol AR starts", can't wait to REQ you w/ the pistol come Tuesday. there's a fine line between accessible and skill gap. Street Fighter is a super accessible game, high skill gap. CSGO, not as accessible because the actual act of shooting is hard, as it should be, and it's got a high skill gap. Halo... accessible... shooting challenge is to be seen, high skill gap... still to be seen. Quote Share this post Link to post
Sitri Posted October 22, 2015 it discourages the use of mechanics that the maps are balanced around, so I don't think it would really work out. I think that's fine. It forces you to either think or wait in order to use these non-Halo abilities. I wouldn't mind if it was only sprinting or shooting that triggered the radar, though. It seems like there's either invis or OS on every map! Now if only they weren't apparently scared to put both on one map.. I believe I saw both on Eden, but only for Strongholds. Some maps seem to have different layouts for that mode. A competitive game should never give an advantage to the slower moving player. Counter Strike does. Quote Share this post Link to post
