SmokexFFx5694d ago

Lost a couple of matches today or something?

Garrus_Vakarian5694d ago

No, I just know when to stay away from the multiplayer for a while.

Then again, I honestly don't think most of the problems with this game will get fixed.

Here's hoping 343i can do a better job(multiplayer and story).

JokesOnYou5694d ago

Yeah looks like you've been taking a beating like me. I just simply dont have time to play enough between work. I post on this site mostly from my cell phone, most of the time when I get home I just want to eat and lounge on the couch.

JOY

thief5694d ago

Looks like the reverse - he has probably won a lot because he has figured out the level of "strategy" needed to win in Halo.

N4GAddict5694d ago

Most popular multiplayer games always have people exploiting them

despair5694d ago

and putting in insane number of hours doing the same thing over and over and over again. No new FPS MP has ever held my attention more than a few weeks. Strange that games like Quake and UT I could play for years but this new set I just don't feel playing them for long.

Swiftfox5694d ago

I feel the same way about most MP aspects of games. To me it feels like the developers are trying harder than they should to keep me invested in their game. Unlockable skins, abilities, classes,weapons, armor peices,a leveling/ranking system, and not to mention achievements and trophies.

I like more simple MP experiences. I log in play a bit get a rush then log off. No worrying about my level, what I need to unlock next or what achievment/trophy I should work on.

Skadoosh5694d ago

Sounds like somebody is getting seriously pwned in the multiplayer. Just get better if you want to play the multiplayer. If you want to rack up easy kills go play COD. I have a K/D ratio of 2.05 and I don't do anything you said.

NewsForMe5694d ago (Edited 5694d ago )

If someone armor locks just leave the area for now. Hopefully they nerf it a little.

If you're taking yellow lift and your team doesn't control it you probably should just stop playing the game.

Grenades aren't a problem, I'm guessing you camp and are pissed off the 'nades get you. If you're moving they aren't a problem.

kaveti66165694d ago (Edited 5694d ago )

Hey just because you suck doesn't mean you can blame the game. Nade spamming is something I'd agree with to a point but if you don't run around like a jackass, letting everyone know where you are by radar, they won't throw grenades.

There's a strategy to every game, and if you try to play it some other way, you're going to die the same way every time.

When I first started playing KZ2 I kept running into corridors and buildings full of opponents without much strategy or thought. It's not the game's fault. It's mine.

Edit: As for armor lock, it's not effective at all if you know how to counter it. You only choose armor lock if you have a buddy who is going to be close by to give cover fire while you're in armor lock. Otherwise, the opponent will just time a grenade so that you will die once your ability depletes.

It's all strategy. This game is awesome.

BARF5694d ago

i agree with Garrus... evey battle in reach comes down to who has the most nades at the time. the maps suck and the jetpack is a travesty (most aa suck actually). i stopped playing after about a week. reach has taken over BFBC2 as my biggest let downs this gen.

crzyjackbauer5693d ago

wait you forgot the n00b combo (plasma charge and then headshot)

i like to do that to dumbasses like u

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion1241d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad1241d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows901241d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff21831241d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows901241d ago (Edited 1241d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde1241d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows901240d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde1240d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator1241d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent131241d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff21831240d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.

Awesome news - so can we look forward to playing Halo: Infinite with no online issues circa 2033?

just_looken1326d ago

"You can download the improved Reach AI mod at Mod DB" This was a mod 343 did nothing so the online will be fixed in our dreams.

SullysCigar1326d ago

Par for the course with 343.

Profchaos1325d ago

They did say they had a 10 year plan for infinite we just all assumed it would be DLC could of been a 10 year netcode rollout.

But seriously this is a mod the community won't be able to modify infinite in the same way

Cikatriz_ESP1326d ago

Combat Evolved was the best campaign, and it's not even close.

just_looken1326d ago

You should have tried this version of reach when it first came out remastered for a year there was no sound because 343 could not locate the sound files.

It was a special challenge.

badz1491326d ago

more like the bunch at 343i are simply mentally challenged

ACEMANWISE1326d ago

Well I guess 12 years is faster than most fixes. I guess this is a cheap way to "remaster" something nowadays.....by just fixing something that used to always be broken.

zidane13411326d ago

Did you even read the article? This is a mod to improve AI from back almost 2 gens ago. Nobody is claiming this is remastering anything. Yeesh.

Crows901326d ago

Halo is dead. Microsoft has other shooter franchises it cares more about now. 343 are no longer Xbox golden studio. They are likely to shift things around or even close it all together and give the IP to someone else.

343i decided to pummel the IP into the ground...and when they see it didn't quite look like Glenn's face they decided to just keep on pummeling. Not sure if Glenn is the IP or the fanbase in this case though.

Profchaos1325d ago

343 were never the golden studio they were a hastily thrown together b team when bungie said we want to do something else cya

Crows901325d ago

Well ...I didn't want to say it but I agree. Makes you wonder why Microsoft gave them the IP and didn't keep Bungie or any of the talent they acquired from any studio.

CobraKai1325d ago

“ Halo Infinite, Halo 3, or Halo: Combat Evolved. It’s hard to say which of the sci-fi FPS games offers the best experience all round.”
He lost me with Halo Infinite.
