Default Re: Halo 3: Post your likes & dislikes of multiplayer

I really dislike the sand map and Snowbound. The rest are pretty decent though. I feel like the SMG, pistols, and plasma rifle are pretty worthless. I mostly stick to the AR/brute shot/shotty in close and it seems to work well for me.

Also, I really like all the crazy variants, but the jerks always veto the cool stuff so we can play the imaginative 'team slayer' for the umpteenth time.

I like those maps and really like all the maps except the really big one w/ the two bases (I forget the name). I just wish there were more of them...

I haven't had any team variations besides shotty/snipers, what team games have you played?

Dual wielding the SMG is a pretty good weapon, but finding 2 can be challenging. I also stick w/ the AR, but will take the shotty or gravity hammer/sword for close range, neeler/BR for mid range and try not to deal w/ long range fighting.

more maps would be better, but that's bound to increase over time...

u guys have any comments on the type of games, vip, etc...

i too have noticed the diminished effectiveness of grenades because of lack of radius...

need to try out the needler some more, i still have a weak view on it from H2...

Here's a button glitch: you can melee twice quicker by pressing melee, grenade, switch weapons, then melee.

Also, I think that the needler can be dodged by jumping, but I haven't really tested that (only seen and tried it in game)

Overall, I think the multiplayer is decent. I agree that the maps could be better. I defintely like the decreased autoaim.

I played about 20 team games with a couple friends last night and had a blast even though I mostly suck. We never saw any variation other than Shotty/Sniper. Overall I liked the maps and absolutely loved how the snipers have been downgraded. I used to be dead before I knew from snipers it in H2, but now I can actually survive if I react quick enough.

The button glitch is only slightly faster. Pretty useless IMO and its not going to do an autokill like in H2.

The needler can be dodged. It's best as a midrange weapon, attacking those who can't see you right outside the radar. If you can surprise someone it's almost an auto kill, but I think you need to land about half a clip.
