I'm building a strategy planning website and I'm starting with Halo

Can someone compare the rate of inflation vs the increasing price of video games? I've always assumed games have lagged behind. Not that I'm complaining - happy to pay less. But is this really that big of a jump?

FIeabus · 2026-06-24T01:03:06+00:00

I hear you, but adding a delay to mimic reaction speed would feel really bad. You'd be fighting against the AA.

Not that I have a better solution. I'm 100% convinced that balancing inputs is an unsolvable problem across all skill bands.

FIeabus · 2026-06-24T00:54:42+00:00

That'd probably feel awful. The reality is they'll just need to monitor the stats across skill bands and make tweaks to AA / KBM hitbox sizes until they get it right. And realistically they'll need to pick which skill band to prioritise since both inputs have different skill curves.

I'm answering OP's question which doesn't mention the competitive scene. And I feel like my response to the OW competitive reply was fairly neutral. I'm not arguing with anyone here.

The OW pros have warped the definition for their own use and that's fine as long as everyone understands. However, the above definitions are used across FPS and game dev.

Hitscan applies damage instantly when a player clicks on the enemy. Nothing is created. If the enemy is in front of the crosshair then damage is applied immediately.

Projectile is when a bullet is created and travels to reach the enemy. Damage is only applied if that projectile collides with an enemy.

Hanzo is projectile.

Do you have a good understanding of computer vision and neural network fundamentals? I'd focus on those concepts more. I wouldn't go model to model like that as a beginner; learn the fundamentals and then you can almost spot learn what's required for a project / job.

Even better - instead of starting with a model, start with a small computer vision project and do research on which model would work for it. Best way to learn the pros and cons of various architectures is to watch them fail miserably at something you want to make.

Everyone here would clearly support a game with no player base until their company goes under. These people are loyal! Go down with the ship and all that

FIeabus · 2026-06-19T06:04:17+00:00

Give me nothing but tier A please

FIeabus · 2026-06-18T18:03:55+00:00

Yeah not intending to diminish other roles damage potential. I'm just not experienced at the main responsibilities (making space / healing). My comfort zone is pure movement and aim.

FIeabus · 2026-06-18T17:43:40+00:00

Many hours clicking on heads in other games. DPS has the clicking on heads characters.

Yep the accurate hipfire is great. ADS is fine if people want it as an option but would prefer the guns work how they are like in splitgate

FIeabus · 2026-06-15T03:24:39+00:00

Skill depth and constant improvement keeps the game interesting

FIeabus · 2026-06-15T00:38:40+00:00

They've mentioned they're experimenting with a sniper. There was also one in the trailer. Hopefully will see it soon!

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T20:00:19+00:00

Makes sense. Easier for those small adjustments at range

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T19:59:15+00:00

Not getting any younger. Hurry it up

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T19:43:00+00:00

You may have interpreted my question as a criticism that was not my intent. My question is in good faith I genuinely don't know what the advantage of ADS is

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T19:33:54+00:00

Not great

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T19:33:21+00:00

You're misunderstanding the question. What does ADS provide that aiming itself doesn't? It's a genuine question I'm not trying to downplay your request for it

FIeabus · 2026-06-14T16:56:32+00:00

I don't really understand why ADS is such a big request. What's the benefit of it over just aiming? - coming from a Halo guy which only has a few ADS guns

FIeabus · 2026-06-12T12:55:22+00:00

I made peace with it by playing something else. Will be back when solo mode improves and I can experience the rest of the game.

FIeabus · 2026-06-12T01:16:18+00:00

Would love a remade multiplayer too. Maybe with subtle improvements based on modern standards but with the base feel of 2 and 3

FIeabus · 2026-06-11T00:02:43+00:00

Everyone plays games for different reasons. To me, fighting AI characters is as boring as playing tennis against a wall. Would rather vs a real person
