    Brother you can’t say jackals had a balancing issue and complain about them being able to snipe you from a mile away unless you’re young enough that you didn’t play halo 2 on console.

    That’s who they are. That’s what they do!

      Yes, but we all continually bitched about Jackal Alley in 2005 and I will continue to do so now

      Walking around a corner and getting instantly domed the nanosecond the enemy has line of sight on you has never been fun. There is room for it to be bearable if the shot doesn’t one-shot you but on the higher difficulties it was some bullshit back then and it remains so now.

        Boo this man!

        Halo 2s terribly hard difficulty was consistent. It did not relent to your failures.

        Horrible difficulty is APPRECIATED. difficulty that relents to my failure IS NOT.
