Yeah. No rushBad news about discord is that no admins/mods online and i think the place is closed down still. We'll get you there eventually though.
EDIT This is assuming you're talking about HaloERA discord...
PM'd you a link.
ThanksPM'd you a link.
Anyone else here who wants an invite to the Discord, PM me. Not sure if links can be hidden in posts yet, will ask about getting one in the OT when it allows.
Thanks fam!
Where have you been man?
ADS creates a longshot game, and the fact that in my opinion it was only added to the game (along with Weapon attachments) to bring in the modern twitch shooter crowd and casual players. and i think it still failed in that regard.
Smartlink is a concept that works in lore, like yeah we dont have to ADS because our suits are connected to the weapons optics, so there is no need for physically moving the gun to the face. zoom is fine.
So did 343 say when the October update is coming for Halo 5? I might just jump in here and there. It's the last week...
Super busy with school.Where have you been man?
Also how did you manage it get into era?
Thanks man, I really hope you give it a go, like I said it was a blast to design, it's definitely going for that Truth and Reconciliation, but dialled up a notchThese all look great, but I want to weigh in and say that the visual style for Containment looks fantastic - I cannot wait to DL it and try it out tomorrow.
Yess Sik, peddle that shit!! PEDDLE IT!Nilla has inspired me to force you all to look at my maps again. All original work.
I'm bored and am making headers for a bunch of different communities. You guys can use it if you want:

We all wonder.Damn, these also look great!! I need to play them, but with forge outputs like this, I can't help but wonder why there isn't a playlist for them in Halo 5.
Yes please.
I've seen Frankie in PoliEra but he hasn't checked in here.
I aim to pleaseThink you fit in here lol
Just remember not to be as cranky as some of us vets :)
I think Nokyard said back in the old GAF Halo 5 OT that they'd be added soonish
in regards to the ADS discussion.
Imo ADS is defined by reduced movement speed, jump height etc. when scoped and significantly decreased accuracy in hip fire.
H5 has neither of these and so it's not ADS.
Also where stinkles at?

Well then standard zoom is ads-lite as well because it does exactly what you describe.But it does do the other things ADS does. It enhances the lethality of the weapon, and tips the advantage to the person who ADS's first favor. It extends the range of guns, the bullet magnetism and homing, it increases their effectiveness and time to kill.
It might be ADS-lite, but it's still ultimately the same mechanic with not as many boxes checked as other games would have on their implementation.
Jem, you are not winning! lol
I'll let you have sprint if you let me have Halo without ADS.
Well then standard zoom is ads-lite as well because it does exactly what you describe.
The only place where H5's ads has any significant effect on gameplay is with automatic weapons. In that it slightly increases their effective range.
For precision weapons the only difference between H5 and the rest of the series is the visual aspect.
I'm completely neutral on sprint. I can take it or leave it.
Also, I actually prefer the classic implementation of zoom. I prefer how classic zoom looks and I don't particularly like the increased range of autos.
I'd rather they revert back to the classic style in H6. I'm just saying that H5 doesn't have ADS.
It'd be more accurate to say that they added zoom to every weapon in H5. The only reason people are calling it ADS is because of the visual changes.
You can't just say it only affects RRR when RRR has such a massive impact on combat. For precision weapons the difference between current zoom and classic zoom is negligible, I'm not sure what you're point is regarding SWAT.In the past, standard zoom has only ever effected your RRR and in rare instances your accuracy.
But H5's ADS doesn't just effect the automatic weapons, it effects things from the plasma pistol, the grenade launcher, the sentinel beam (I guess that counts as automatic?), the plasma caster, the fuel rod gun, and so on.
But even with precision weapons, the ADS does effect their performance. Just take a look with the pistol in swat and see how autoaim and magnetism are altered compared to that of the BR, which unlike the pistol gets magnetism towards the head.
I do realize that there is an argument to be made that if you don't notice it, what does it really matter, but it ultimately does effect the meta of the game and peoples enjoyment. Even with something like the FRG, where the ADS benefit isn't really clear to anyone it begs the issue if it doesn't do anything, why does it exist?
We just need KyleJ and the set will be complete
Frankie was seen in Discord but he got email problems then. I figure he is coming here though, eventually.
