I can't stand how every H4 forge map looks cluttered as shit, 343i really fucked up forge. You can perfectly tell how they had no idea what they're doing, if ONLY they'd have asked actual forgers for advice.
So...I don't have much fondness for the Halo 3 Brute Shot, or its reskin the Concussion Rifle. A part of that is the huge physics impulse and its effect on vehicles (and players), but I think that's probably only half of the story. It's just really easy to use with extreme effectiveness - there's not much to it other than "aim at thing, mash trigger" because those physics impulses are additive and can have huge effect without a whole lot of effort. Now, you take the Halo 2 Brute Shot where it has to bounce before it detonates, and I think the story changes quite a bit. You add that little requirement that forces people to maybe have to position themselves better to get good use out of it since they need to get bounces, and it becomes a lot more interesting. It's not really that I think the H3 Brute Shot doesn't have merit or that it shouldn't have those physics effects, it's that it's so easy to use that it becomes a very one-note, spammy weapon. It's sort of mitigated by its magazine size, but at the point where you've hit three or four of the six rounds, you've probably already served your purpose and that Hog is likely off the cliff without any way to recover.
That's what she said
I got the Mongoose there but never thought to clip through the walls with it.
I saw this on a car bumper yesterday. Looks like he's got a few fans in Portland, too.

That must have been funny, I get stuck a double's because there is no one else in the immediate vicinity. The stat's are really interesting to look at double to triple 12.11% chance using the total number's, so it's a 12.11% ceiling.

Nice work karl
If my math is right I only got a triple kill from 13.54% of my doubles, and triple to overkill is 14.38%
Karl, you glorious bastard. The graphic looks great on mobile, too.

Yeah, I think I got 10 - 15 perfections in my 17+ days of playtime in Reach, lol.
Don't feel too bad it's impossible to have less than me.
Putting in that work, damn son.Thanks again!
There will be another image that features Gabo's hi-res Reach medals and another article talking about what I think should be included in detail. But that won't be for a little while. In February, I'm launching a 4 part series that Fyrewulff has been asking me to post for ages that covers the Halo series' feature set. It'll cover a brief summary of what the feature is intended to do and how I think it can improve. I've got parts 1 and 2 all written up, and I'm making some revisions to part 3 right now, while part 4 is about 40% done. I still need a few images before I post anything though.
