This update will make me very happy, and it shows that 343i knows what they're doing.
Fucking YES!humansArmour lock always has been, still is, and always will bestupida dumb, overpowered gimmick. Except this update changes this. classic magnum might be cool, unless it's whored. Bloom is stupid too, glad to see it gone.
Looks like i'll be going back to Reach.
The classic pistol will only be in the classic playlists, which is awesome so it won't be whored in playlists with the DMR and all that.
Never had a problem with the bloom, myself, I just sort of delt with it like everybody else who played the game was forced to. I'm neutral on the implementation of a bloom option. Though I think no bloom will even the playing field with H1 pistols.
I'm just glad they realized shipping Anniversary with nothing but MP maps was going to cause nerd rage.. I welcome this TU
Neat.Quote:
the addition of Halo: Combat Evolved’s iconic magnum to “special, classic playlists”
Fucking why didn't Bungie think of that.Quote:
a change so that the armor lock ability only absorbs damage based on your remaining energy, rather than turning you into a glowing ball of invincibility.
Would be better if it was just permanently disabled for all playlists, but still cool.Quote:
the ability to disable reticle bloom for weapons
Good, camo was annoying.Quote:
a reduction in the duration of the active camouflage armor ability
YES YES FUCKING GOD YES IT'S ABOUT TIMEQuote:
a new inability to block sword attacks with anything but another sword.
Looks like I'll be picking Reach back up. This is how the game should have been from the start.
This. Though with all of the TF2, occasional JK2, and non-gaming I've been doing lately I'm probably going to get bullshat by something completely unrelated and ragequit Reach again. %-)Quote:

Gonna be hilarious if they do Halo better than Bungie did. They did wind up with some of Bungie's big employees so I wouldn't be suprised
From this, I can conclude that 343 has a better idea of gameplay design than the Reach team.
D ear god yes. I can play reach again.
