No certain order.
1.If your own team mate is shooting at you nonstop but not killing you, don't kill him he just wants to boot you.

2.The noob combo is able to be countered.

3.If you leave your aimy thing that turns red when you point at an enemy where it is when you first appear, its automatically at head level.

4.clans are pretty much just a second friends list.

5.The sword lunge can be dodged.

No matter what, it's always fun. If you win. So try harder random.

6. I never look at little kids the same anymore

7. Big Team is where every little kid in the whole world goes to scream

8. Boot ANYONE that betrays you, even if it was an accident.
I learned this one from big team!

9. Booting is the best part of the game, and it should be used whenever it can be

10. ALWAYS BOOT THE PLAYER

11. When you boot him and it goes into blue screen, tell every one that you booted him and just keep repeating it
"I booted him! I booted him! I booted him! I booted him! I booted him! I booted him! I booted him!"

12. Plasma pistol can take down a full overshield
13. A sensativity of 3 is going to make it very hard to snipe moving targets (especially vehicle drivers)
14. Never whore vehicles without checking if your team has rocks :P
15. Turn off your headset after the game if you intend to stick in the lobby to look at the scores lest you be spammed out by kids telling you how much you suck.
16. There are a lot of white and black colored armor players, very few orange or pink.
17. Do not assume the person with the pink armor and the name like 'sexyvixen' or 'prettykitty' is a girl. Sometimes they sound even gruffer than you.
18. (I almost didn't add this one) Apparently everyone has -blam!-dar.

What about -

What you see on your screen isn't necessarily what is happening on the host/official record of the current game?

-Way too many noobs on live, namely little kids.
-A double kill is apparently a great achievement nowadays.
-People will say you suck even if they are getting owned.

actually, I use a sensitivity of 2 or 3 most of the time and I, by my own guess and others' observations, am an excellent sniper, specializing in the removal of drivers from vehicles with single headshots....in other words, its not that hard

19) Mute the annoying little kids in step 1 or 2 of matchmaking. And the screamers. And the singers. And the people with the over-sensitive mics. And the pre-game trash and smack talkers. I mute lots of people... Blessed silence.

I would have to agree with the whole little kid thing. I mean I have been off of the game for a year b/c of the Navy and I must say that I thought it was bad before I left man has it changed in that short of time. Halo in general has changed but some for the better. I am still a fan of BTB but I hate how a lot of people go in there to betray there own team. One of my biggest pet peeves is people who play the game but think they are so good they dont' need their team. I mean Iam the type of person who calls out where the enemy is. But you have people who dont' say anything and die and then you are left in the dark as to where the other team is. I am alos finding it kind of hard to play with decent people b/c I can't seem to find any on halo 2 like I used too. Oh and one other thing that bothers me is when there is a girl in the room or game and like everyone is freaking out about her. I mean damn let her play. Why do these guys think they are going to impress the girl by running up to her character and saying "ooh here is a kiss for you". I mean come on can you say LAME.

All great trilogies end in fives.

I use a sensitivity of 10 ^^

wow, way to add your own rules,lol. nice that you caught on in a month though personally it took me 2 days to find that out = )

It's only been a little over a week now, but what I've learned thus far:

1. Always play on mute. I play without a headset because my son also plays. Nothing like to trying to explain what "F this" and "F that" means plus I don't like getting cussed at by people who sound like Mickey Mouse on helium.
2. About 75% of my games are played on Lockout.
3. My favorite map is Midship.
4. Using the sniper rifle is a heckuvalot harder online than when playing the campain.
5. I'm not calling it cheating, but I'm not a fan of folks who uses glitches to win -- probably because one player beat (very badly I might add) me and three other players on SWAT Team Slayer BR on Sanctuary by use the double shot over and over and over -- which leads to my No. 6.
6. I need to practice . . . a lot.

LOL, I know what you mean.

I think I've played with you before. I remember the gamertag.

How do you copy what someone else said and put that black box around it?

  • 07.03.2007 12:08 PM PDT

Please no group invites... I only play MLG customs and don't spend my time wasting it on groups,clans or any other internet social crap.

2. About 75% of my games are played on Lockout.


I want your XBOX and connection to their gamming server. I MIGHT get Lockout 15% of the time.

1. Playing pissed off only makes you play worse
2. EVERY gamer has his or her own position and prefrence when playing (can only get good in a computer chair leaning forward, like MLG tournaments)
3. Play with what sensitivity works the best FOR YOU. I know people that play from 1 to 10
4. Recording your gameplay does help a lot to watch mistakes, *cannot wait for that to be built into H3*
5. Sniper rifle has MEGA aim assist, just shot you'll probable hit him in the head
6. If you don't have a team, you won't go anywhere in levels
7. Clan *Leaders / Captains* always think they are the best players in the clan and ALWAYS think they know the best everything
8. Custom Games are where the fun is, SHOULD allow customs to be seen across the board to members can join them
9. If it's SWAT don't run your mouth if you lose to people just jacking around not wanting to play searious, it's rather degrating to have to create a custom game for you to only stick around for 2 minutes before you quit out.
