Azaxx Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I liked armour lock. I didn't use it, but I never saw it as bad as people made it out to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedzish Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I liked armour lock. I didn't use it, but I never saw it as bad as people made it out to be. My way of thinking was it was made to destroy vehicles right? so why on earth was it ever put in team slayer? where it was just used and abused and just dam right annoying.

FaTaL Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I am fortunate enough to not have ever played Halo Reach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cephemin Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Horray! No Armour Lock! I agree, one of the best features of Halo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkItZo1041 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I never had a problem with armor lock. So long as you know how to fight someone using it instead of throwing grenades at them and punching them >.> it's actually not hard at all to beat. I think of Armor Lock as a way to stall for your teammates to back you up, or to destroy vehicles, or to protect from grenades/rockets/fuel rods etc.. Honestly, I'd rather have armor lock than that stupid shield >.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A7xBTF Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Armor lock is just one example of the many faults that were present in reach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn Wolf Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I ******* loved Armor Lock. I'm starting to think that most Reach players are dumb for some reason, and don't understand how easy it is to kill players in Armor Lock. (Why does everyone run TOWARDS me when I lock, instead of backing up and throwing grenades?) It was great. It wasn't OP, it wasn't even nooby. It could be used very intelligently and creatively. It was easy to counter, but strong to counter other powerful things in the game. But, it wouldn't fit into H4. I don't miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TransientHalo Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Armor Lock was the MOST annoying thing about Halo Reach. I could understand it as a 'balance' issue, but if Armor Lock was replaced with the HardLight Shield from Halo 4, that would be awesome. Armor Lock and JetPack were the two most annoying armor abilities in Reach, but I at least respect the JetPack because it takes skill to use the jetpack effectively, armor lock was a newbie skill. Small maps like countdown and sword base, i'd take someones shield only for them to armor lock and their teammates clean up, very very annoying. I never really used armor lock in Reach, only to test it out some. I mainly used sprint and occasionally active camo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaytothen Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I never got the hate against Armor Lock. It wasn't that overpowered. It was really easy to time perfectly and drop a grenade right when it ran out. Or hang out behind the guy and assasinate him as they came out. About the only annoying thing was using it to kill Ghost's or other vehicles and making it impossible to splatter anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bball160 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Im with you on that one. The armor lock just slowed down the game in Halo reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkItZo1041 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 At least you can still nade kill the shield lol except when they are across map that bugs me a little lol I'm not saying Armor Lock was amazing or anything, just that I didn't have a problem with it really. I just got used to it, and usually waited in a safe spot and got the headshot when they came out. It got annoying here and there, but I don't think it's any more annoying than people throwing up the shield, walking backwards around a corner, and running away.

Field of Mangos Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I liked armour lock. I didn't use it, but I never saw it as bad as people made it out to be. It never was. Elitists just got butthurt that they couldn't get a kill they thought they were entitled to. Basically if they shot first, they thought the opponent should just hurry up and die because they were gods gift to Halo. Armor Lock worked exactly as intended, it was never anything more or less than what it should have been. That, and the haters hilarious claimed to be good players and that Armor Lock was for noobs, but if they were as good as they said they were, they'd be playing against other high skilled players who clearly chose to use Armor Lock, not making it a noob armor ability.
