The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

I like this about H3. Less auto-aim requires more skill, and rewards skilled players more than H2.

I think you're getting confused between reticle stickiness and auto-aim. I know this is a little nit-picky. For me though, it is a big reason why I dislike H3 even more so than H2. Which is saying a lot.

Auto-aim is exactly that "auto aim", meaning it moves the reticle for you. Reticle stickiness does not aim for you. It simply just slows down the reticle movement over a target. Launch up H1 and sweep over a opponent, you'll notice the reticle slows down when your over the target and speeds up when you move off the target.

H2 had both auto-aim and stickiness. H1 primarily used reticle stickiness and had no auto-aim, except maybe a slight amount with the rocket launcher.

H3, on the other hand, is almost the exact opposite of H1 here. It uses all auto-aim and really no reticle stickiness. This makes H3 aiming with the sniper and battle rifle feel "loose".
