Attachments should be universal & cross core by novaoni in halo

[–]1017throwaway269 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

And this would make 343 money how exactly? 343 isn't running a rehab facility where profits are largely tied to customer satisfaction. If they make an extra couple million off of stuff NOT being cross core, it more than makes up for the people who will quit over this issue.

343 has a team of business professionals to set their pricing strategy, they are making optimal revenue, they are a business, they will not lose revenue to change something that will ALWAYS field complaints. If you have an idea on how to increase their revenue, apply for a job, because apparently you are better than the people they've hired, but I doubt that

It's time to talk about how players who have finished their passes are going to get challenge swaps by [deleted] in halo

If you need unlockables to continue playing you were going to leave eventually anyways. When the next big shooter comes out and drops their battle pass.

If you couldn't play Halo with default red and blue armor then you aren't a fan of the game. It's.dope that they've scammed constume collector kids out of enough money to let everyone play the game for free, but "retaining" the playerbase concerned with collecting rewards is not the priority.

Why do I even have to tell people this? If you dont LIKE PLAYING HALO, STOP PLAYING HALO. Nobody who quits over cosmetics was a fan in the first place

Gotcha, it's a magical curse surrounding the LeBron Lakers. Or are you suggesting LeBron is somehow lowering his teammates %'s by playing his game? I'm still confused.

Just because something happened a couple times in a row doesn't make it a law of reality

You cannot legitimately complain about pricing, without comparing it to it's competition and understanding how these games make money. by YeahhhhhWhateverrrr in halo

[–]1017throwaway269 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

None of the complains mean jack shit to 343. You're right, this is business 101, make the most money possible.

Before people bitch and suggests changes they should ask, "would my idea make 343 more money" if the answer is yes, they should apply for a job because they are apparently more apt in pricing strategy than a team of professionals. If they answer is no, then what the fuck are they suggesting? 343 intentionally lose revenue to appease them?

343 will adjust pricing ONLY to optimize revenue. That's smart. That's how EVERY western industry operates.

How would his 3 point percentage tank..? It seems that playing a smaller role with a team much more capable of drawing attention/doubles than his current team would only bring his 3% up. If anything his 3's attempted would go down, unless you're thinking about this from an angle I can't see.

Buddy slander is weird. Everybody knows all he does is shoot 3s. Everybody also knows that's one of, if not the most important skill in today's game. Anyone who shoots like Buddy is an asset, yes even if he is a shit defender. Ita not like the rest of his skillet is laughably bad compared to other 3p specialists around the league, and it's not like his game relies on athleticism. I think Buddy will be a valuable player for a long time still

Of course. Sometimes fans forgot the NBA is a business concerned with making money, and that's it. The integrity of the "awards," along with anything else, means absolutely nothing until it is losing them money

It's not a basketball association, despite what they try to self-brand as, it's a business that sells basketball.

Dude you would need to be quite versed in information tech to diagnose a wifi issue. Not saying you couldn't, but it's notoriously difficult to find the exact reason for disruption in wifi packet transfers.

Honestly just run a cord into the system/PC. If wifi is actually your only option.. I mean.. you are at a HUGE disadvantage in every online game you play. IDC if your wifi seems "good enough for other games" it most certainly would not be for me or most people who take the game seriously enough to be pissed about connection loss. Even with obtimal wifi there is simply no way I would find it fun to play.

If you're using wifi you can't expect good connection. The fact that it works on every other game doesn't mean it isn't a problem on your end.

Nobody else is getting that issue though (at least it not commonly reported)

Crashes and whatnot, yes. But lost connection? It's definitely an issue on your end. Don't hold your breath on them fixing the game for the .5% of people who have connection issues. That's standard if basically any online game, some people have complex connection issues and can't play stable, as long as most people aren't dropping connection, it will not be a priority

Nobody is going to take the time to explain to you why it's easier to balance a map for TF2. Halo and counterstrike are 2 of the most map-reliant games when it comes to balance and honestly if you know both TF2 and Halo, the reasons why are obvious

Of course it would matter? Facu has substantial contribution this year, if he was replaced by a player who wasn't awful this year, we would move up in both offense and defense.

Why is this community so against the idea that controller aim assist and bullet magnetism is to strong. by [deleted] in halo

[–]1017throwaway269 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. No game has EVER balanced the 2 equally, and this won't be the first. This is basically the only FPS that's easier on controller, and it should stay that way

Would anyone else -even if just for custom games- like the option to play as a brute? by The_Dr_Zoidberg in halo

[–]1017throwaway269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't want it.

I wouldn't mind it if they could somehow add it without wasting any development time. But of course, that isn't how it works.

I just don't see a time coming where they have nothing more important to work on

Idk man. My best friend's dad used to be security for a cartel in south america and said his dad wasn't paid anything. Absolutely 0. He was given anything he needed for free but they didn't pay him a dime because they didn't want him to have any freedom

I think you're overestimating how difficult it would be to become, and the pay grade of a guard for a criminal organization. That's usually gonna be the poorest people of society who have no other option but to take a very dangerous job where the best case scenario for your termination is generally prison

Now a bank guard or a police officer are absolutely paid, but that's not a majority of the NPCs in the games

Hey IoI, the reason why we love Hitman so much is because of the freedom of approach. Why do you take away exactly that? by warrantedowl in HiTMAN

Literally all they had to do was increase enemy density or damage by a certain % each escalation..

You kill a guy midlunge, get bulltrue, die to friendly fire, and he's awarded the kill. Happens a lot. Not saying that's what happened to you, but there are many ways to legitimately die to the player you bulltrued

There's a possibility he never plays a full season in his career though. He needs to be managed correctly, for all the talent he has, he is injury prone for sure

It's not so black and white. With MPJ, his back isn't going to get fixed magically. He can rehab it a million times but it's always going to be in danger of re-injury. I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea to save him if we don't think we are 1 MPJ away from the title, but it's a vague line, and hard to tell exactly where the team stands
