He is playing Halo like a twitch shooter, which is why he kept getting dunked on. You have to be a lot more careful about approaching situations in Halo because the long TTK allows for more strategies and unexpected maneuvers. It isnt better or worse, just different. You can often-times be MUCH more aggressive in Halo than other games because of the TTK, but you have to approach situations much differently, especially with the movement, strafing, and descope mechanic. Getting the jump on the enemy is not a guaranteed win like it is in most games. You have to approach from a good angle, have a plan, scavenge weapons. I hardly saw Shroud scavenge, he would go off spawn and ignore pickups half the time. Halo is 70% planning, 30% execution. On top of all this, instant and flick accuracy is much less important than tracking in Halo. You might be a god with twitch aim, but the high TTK makes strafing and maintaining accuracy much more important.

[@bleepbloop7039]

honestly I've found so much success in this version of halo thus far by kinda playing like a scaredy cat, like ill shoot the shit outta someone then fall back and group up with everyone else, then when the other guy tries to chase me down he gets screwed, or sometimes I just bodyguard someone else the whole match sticking to them like glue and in the end we just overpower random people, having the longer ttk is actually fun and switches things up, this game is awesome for those people who do shift at work, come home and have may 15 mins to have an hour to play as well, they did a real good job with this compared to some other high end titles.. cough cough battlefield

[@hughJ]

I've not played any Halo before, but reading what you said here definitely makes sense given the period of time that the original Halo was in development.

Short TTK does not mean good. It's a preference. A longer TTK means you need to be consistent with your shots and cannot rely on luck as much (like getting a triple kill with a random grenade or enemies lining up). You also need to use everything you have and have great movement/positioning to get multi kills. If you want short TTK in Halo, control power weapons and use grenades.

​@@caspertrog1046 I wouldn't call it bad game design, you have to be able to consistantly hit a sngle enemy in halo, take the sheild down and then land the headshot to be the best. Or be good at getting to the center and getting the good weapons like the sword or the sniper that generally kill in 1 hit. In other shooters, it skips the shield part, meaning you can get 1 lucky hit or have a quicker reaction time and you win. It promotes different skills I'd say, neither is bad game deisgn, it's just a different type of gameplay.

[@nahhh5284]

@@caspertrog1046 That makes no sense. There’s a lot of movement in Halo so you need to actually be able to track your target and maintain accuracy, so a skilled FPS player would still win in a fight against a mediocre player because he lands his shots consistently, has better movement, and is more efficient with his ammo. And good aim isn’t the only type of skill. If the player was really good at FPS he would understand that weapons on the field give the advantage and controlling that means controlling the fights, which requires good positioning, map traversal, and aim. So no, Halo gunplay isn’t no skill. It’s actually higher skill than most games that aren’t comp shooters

[@TheDinis553]

@@caspertrog1046 I'm sure people pointed out the other things like movement and positioning, but let me tell you, headshots actually do matter quite a bit. Your character has 2 health bars, the shield health and your actual health, you only take headshot damage to your actual health (makes sense thematically, as a full body shield is a consistent layer). The headshot damage makes a LARGE difference. Once shields are gone, you die in 1-2 headshots OR 3-5 body shots (all depending on your weapon). So once the shields are depleted the damage formula turns into that of any regular old shooter.

[@TheDinis553]

I'm sure people pointed out the other things like movement and positioning, but let me tell you, headshots actually do matter quite a bit. Your character has 2 health bars, the shield health and your actual health, you only take headshot damage to your actual health (makes sense thematically, as a full body shield is a consistent layer). The headshot damage makes a LARGE difference. Once shields are gone, you die in 1-2 headshots OR 4-5 body shots (all depending on your weapon). So once the shields are depleted the damage formula turns into that of any regular old shooter. Sure, the overall time to kill is longer, but killing someone in 9-10 bullets vs 14-15 still gives a lot of room for skill expression. Also makes annoying cheese strats less prevalent, since you can't just get onetapped in the back of the head by a corner camper who's actually significantly worse than you in an all out aim battle.

My first online pvp game I ever played was Halo 3 back in 2008. I’ve play ever ever halo since. Except Halo 5. I was a machinima maker, featured on Bungie’s blog twice. Part of an awesome clan. I was in it. In 2018 I got a pc and became a PC gamer. I love shooting people in the head. I played Halo Infinite for the past two days and honestly I can say is the game is designed for controller. Not mouse and keyboard. It does feel like Halo, but I’m not a controller gamer anymore. I just wasn’t having that much fun. The skill gap I have with other m&k is I can aim at the head pretty good. In halo, headshots don’t weaken the shield any faster that limb shots. So until the shield is down, headshots don’t matter. And I think that’s what makes it a controller game. And I thing it should be controller. Halo is a console game. As it should be. If it changed to work with m&k I think it would loose its essence. Anyway, if someone read all that well done. Lol

@@ulisesmora1282 Think of it this way. The shield protects your entire body equally, without it, it's regular FPS damage formula. So if you headshot someone with their shields on, the excess damage that goes to your actual health is affected by headshot multiplier. So let's say you have 100 shield and 100 health. A weapon that does 150 damage, on a body shot, will deal 100 damage to shields and remaining 50 to health. If it were a headshot, it would deal 100 damage to shields and the remaining 50 damage to your health would receive the headshot multiplier, making it a 100 damage for 200 total.

I remember in the original Halo, one headshot with the pistol took down the whole shield, second headshot killed. It was broken.

[@midkn1ght231]

close, its actually two shots to the body and one to the head. halo ce was really something lol

[@sethdbrown30]

Once the enemies' shield is broken, ie. they're glowing, any of the single shots will get a 1 one shot kill to the head. For instance, 3 shots with the BR to any part of the body (3 to body, or 3 to head, or 2 body and 1 head), will break their shield, then 1 more shot will get the kill, resulting in a 4 shot kill. if you do not get the 4th headshot, it will take 3 more to get a kill, resulting in a 7 shot kill. Same thing with the pistol, takes it from a 10 shot kill, down to a 7 shot kill. Head shots matter a ton!
