Its really weird. If I have the mauler, and I go to beat someone with the hammer down, I always get hammered. However, if I have the hammer and I encounter someone with a mauler, I always get beat down...how does that work?

Tony, for you I hope they make every weapon in the game the mauler. If you can't handle an enemy with a specific weapon then my friend you don't deserve to play the game. Go bitch elsewhere, I'm sure the Halo community doesn't need another immature brat stinking up the place. There is always custom games or just another game.

All that aside I think I'll go play some Shadowrun, Halo 3 got pretty stale after the first week or so.

Get bent, Anticrawl. all you do is bitch about games. I mean seriously, whining about the damage system in a demo of a game? weaksauce, chief.

and if you can't see a word like cheapwhorecannon and the post that contains as tongue-in-cheek, you probably should tell your parents to let the internet account at your house expire.

i dislike the alotment of maulers more than the weapon itself. if you're going to put two maulers near each other, you may as well just put a shotgun there instead. what's the point of it? dual-wielded maulers is the same thing as a shotty up close. you're taking away the differentiation in weapons that way, and that's boring.

now, if you put one mauler and another dual-wieldable weapon near it, like an SMG, that is somewhat more interesting.

it's just personal preference, chief. get the stick out of your ass.

Heh, you aren’t really helping your case. I personally liked the shotgun better than the maulers anyway, I never found them to be very effective for my style of play. Not liking the damage system in a game I care about isn't the same thing as complaining in an online game because you don’t agree without how someone else plays. If you don't like the maulers don't play in games with them, if I don't like the damage system in a series I like then I just won't buy the game or play it and then be done with it. I felt something was wrong with the game, pointed it out and proceeded to solve the problem by not playing the game anymore.

I'm a college student living in an apartment, paying my way with scholarships and a job; I like how you make rash generalizations about people you don't like. Not everyone is carried through life by their parents, but I won't make any assumptions here. Though, this all certainly reminds me of my experiences on Halo 3.

Territories is my favorite gametype in Halo 3. It's an awesome team based game that can get very intense, epecially like in Land Grab or Lurkers. I like how there's also Territories BR and other gametypes like Lurkers. As long as everyone on your team has a mike, it's good. Territories FTW!

Guess I'll have to throw Halo 3 back in and try these out. I like Territories too, but only when the people you are playing with actually use the headset!

i don't understand why people are against the mauler. it's pretty much a weaker shotgun. shotgun can take a guy out with one shot, but with the mauler you need two shots in close, one shot with a double mauler, or a single shot then a melee attack.

but with the shotgun, just one shot from in close and the person is toast.

so why not outrage over the shotgun's inclusion on guardian, narrows, high ground, isolation, epitaph? hMmmm?

Because mauler clusterf***s were exceptionally homosexual?

A mauler on a map isn't bad, 4 maulers on a map is bad.

What is the Swat gametype by the way, I certainly can guess but I didn't play Halo 2 online long enough to see that playlist update, was having to much fun in Farcry.

I just might have to try this out again since COD 4 has really caught my attention right now.. I hope that the elimination of the enemy radar is a breath of fresh air and kills the tendancy of people wanting to camp! I do have to hand it bungie though, while most dev's out there barely address a single issue or just release a bullshit patch that does barely anything, they at least try different shit! Thanks for the options!

ogvor... I agree with you that those game types are fun, but only in ranked since thats when people actually care about winning and playing as a "team".

You know what would be nice? How about fixing the stupid meelee system and making 'nades a little more powerful! I'd rather have that than a stupid Team Controlcore or whatever the fuck.

The grenades are just perfect. Plasmas are an instant kill if close enough, and one frag plus a headshot is a kill. How much stronger do they need to be?

The next playlist update is scheduled to hit sometime in January with the addition of ranked big team battle and the deletion of team tactical.

Fair warning for those casual gamers looking to jump into team hardcore: don't be surprised if you get your arse handed to you by a team of four level 50 generals.

X3f, if you truly think that bomb on valhalla is *hardcore* then you should consider yourselves casual gamers at best.
