I know that isn't so much a "gameplay" issue, but it feels weird to me that even though 2 and Reach both had amazing maps (a nice blend of original and remade 2 maps), 3 has like. Reach fixed this somewhat by beefing up the Magnum, Plasma Pistol, and Carbine/Needle Rifle, but it basically left the projectile weapons untouched and all but removed them from map placement, which makes me sad, because I really liked their Plasma Repeater and Spiker designs. When a game with a plethora of weapons never urges you to grab any outside of the one-hit-kill Power weapons, it feels awful. Off the top of my head, the Magnum feels almost unusable if you don't have a controller and aim assist, Carbine is inferior to BR in every way, Plasma Pistol is the weakest it's ever been, SMGs are okay, the Assault Rifle is pathetic, projectile weapons are inferior to the BR and the SMG, Maul is just a dual wieldable shotgun that is a little bit weaker but fires much faster, Needler is still pathetic, and Brute Shot is fun, but fires way too fast and isn't nearly as fun as 2's Brute Shot or Reach's Grenade Launcher. It's weird too, because since controller players get bullet magnetism and aim assist, you're basically handed an enemy's head on a silver platter if you're at all competent with that control scheme, but the lack of bullet magnetism makes it insanely difficult to consistently land headshots on M/KB (which is a death sentence since you almost never see other M/KB players online). So many of the weapons feel nigh useless, dual wielding is a fun concept but it never really worked in execution in a way that was balanced (all the weapons feel much worse when dual wielding, it just turns close-range fights to the favor of the dual-wielder - if it isn't just "melee fight"), BR fest plagues the game, and with the generous aim assist controller gets combined with ungodly slow movement and acceleration, it means if you're out in the open, you're gonna die.

I played dozens of hours of Reach and 3 on the OG 360, and a LOT of Halo Online/El Dewrito over the past few years, which is essentially 3 but with on PC with no aim assist, optional Sprint, and Reach assassinations.Īs a M/KB player, it's almost impossible to enjoy myself with 3 in MCC. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingĭesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creeschĢ's gameplay is very good aside from the Needler and Plasma Pistol being pathetic, but 3's gameplay being the "pinnacle" of halo pvp baffles me, especially now that it's playable on PC.ĭisclaimer: I'm not entirely new to Halo gaming with the PC release.
