Die all covie bastards!
*suidice difficulty pic*

Okay... just today i played tombstone for the first time on Team Slayer BR.. and guess what?? EVERYONE one the other team was Quad-shotting me.
-blam!- cheaters, -blam!- quad shots, -blam!- encryption codes, -blam!- undoable glitches... -BLAM!- CHEATERS!!!!!!!!!!!

You can clearly guess that I hate cheaters. That is the only problem that i find stressful with Halo 2 online. too many -blam!- cheaters. I know there isnt really anything I can do about it, except keep my trap shut, but I am asking, desperately, is there any one else out there who feels the same way I do about cheaters that give Halo 2 and xbox live a bad name? If Frankie sees this, then I would like to get in touch with him. Personally.

Its hard to move the right joystick while doing the quad shot.
You are over reacting sir


Exactly.
Either you are not good, or they are incredable at quad shotting.

But your also playing on tombstone, a VERY large map that is hard to aim from the far distances..unless you have host.

Some of you apparently lack basic reading comprehension. Stop picking and choosing between posts to suit your vision of "reality", and try reading them together. This includes you Predat0r, since you're apparently trying to run the thread off topic by trying to start yet another -blam!--fest about bugs, even though there are plenty of other threads about this and the issue has been beaten to death already. Do it again and you'll be banned for a while; I have little patience right now for more idiotic trolling like yours. If you don't like it, tough, go whine to the Halo2Sucks.com guys, they like talking about that kind of thing.

Here are the facts - these aren't "opinions", or whatever word you are using to avoid what you don't want to hear.

1. Any use of a glitch/bug in a game to acquire an advantage is cheating on Xbox Live. This includes but is not limited to superbouncing, flag through the wall tricks, leaving the map boundaries, triggering an animation bug using a sequence of button presses (BXR, etc.)
2. Anytime you see someone cheating, you should leave feedback on them, but it is up to you whether to do so. You define whether an action is cheating - you can define the above actions as normal, or be hardcore and define all of them as cheating. Since you're the one reporting the cheater, you get to be the ultimate arbiter of if cheating is occuring. This is a very obvious thing to say, but most people don't understand this.
3. Different organizations have different rules. When you're on Xbox Live, you have to deal with our rules (which are in point 1 and 2). This means that anybody who is bringing up "what MLG does" needs to pull their head out of their ass and look around. Are we talking about an MLG tournament? Is this the MLG web site? No! That means that we're talking about Bungie rules for playing on Xbox Live. MLG is free to define whatever rules they want, and in their rules, button combos are part of the game. Super jumping (I believe) is not. But as what they do is off topic to this discussion, you need to stop talking about it like it matters to what happens on Xbox Live, because it doesn't.

Now, I'll let this thread continue, but you people need to stop dancing around the points made above - they are not opinions, they are "how it is."


Now GTFO.

Just so you are all wondering how i know this next statement: HE IS MY BROTHER

you are dead on ryno, he is not very good, AND he sucks at quadshotting.

AND you are right, he is overreacting with his -BlaM's-

too many..... :S

  • 07.03.2007 4:50 PM PDT

RIP Halo 2.

Oh, boo-freakin'-hoo. If people can consistently quadshot you, you ought to respect that instead of whining about it. If the other team has the ability to pull off quadshots whenever they like, it means they're good enough that they'd wreck you anyways without button glitching. Button glitches ar enot worth whining about, they add depth to the game.

I don't even believe that you were getting quadshotted. I checked the game and you got beat by two kids against your team of four. Chances are they were smart enough to team BR you and synchronize their fire. You, unhappy about losing to a team half the size of yours, decided to come on the forums and scream "z0mfg h4x0rz" to anyone who would listen just because you were upset you lost.

its not like anyone can quad shot (and kill very efficiently) and get away with it....it takes a lot of practice to be able to use it in MM .....so in my opinion anyone who quad (double) shots i give my congrats....cause its not all that easy to master

i may sound noobish cause well im recently new to halo 2 im just lvl 12 or 13 one of those so im not very high and still learning so can anyone explain to me what a triple and quad shot is? im just taking a wild guess here but is it something like shooting a gun 3-4 times really really fast or what? Thanks. and please no rude remarks as i said before im new to halo 2

yep that is the basic idea....just a series of shots in rapid succession.......a double shot is when 2 normal br shots are fired at a fast pace.....quad shot is obviously just double that

What i enjoy the most is how the topic is called "Tombstone Cheaters" almost as if tombstone is the only map that people quad shot on....

lol good point Sphincter (also nice name) but it is a very easy map to....well not easy but it is wide open and if you have host and quad shot it certainly helps

more than one of em could have been shooting at you too. Tombstone irritates me when my team does not have host. Whenever you are shooting at host they always hit you, and their aim never seems to fail even when they are being hit from across the stage.

Thusly, I use needlers and camp beams, ramps, and tunnels until some unfortunate bilge rat shows up.

Complaining about it here won't do anything. This might help though, or at least bring it to the right peoples attention. This was taken from bungie's cheating faq.

What to do if you suspect you've been the victim of a cheater:

Our team is constantly monitoring the data we receive from every game played on Xbox Live but due to the sheer volume of games (nearly 500,000 people per day are playing Halo 2 on Live) it takes time to track down people and investigate offenses. We've created a cheater "hotline" email alias to give our community a chance to help us identify alleged cheaters. If you encounter someone online whom you firmly believe is cheating in some way (network manipulation, hacked maps or game files, boosting, etc..) we ask that you please send a mail to h2cheats@microsoft.com . Please be sure your mail includes the following information:

- Your Gamertag
- The Gamertag(s) of the alleged cheaters
- A summary of what you witnessed or observed
- A link to the game(s) on Bungie.net


At least these people can help you. Nobody in the forums can really do much of anything.

I see your point IIDWells55XII. You really made me think with that "adding depth to the game", but what do you really mean by that?
Thanks,

(like i said before, im his brother)

HAHAHAHHAHAH OOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow lol he is trying to make it seem as if these only happen on tombstone (hence the name) when we all know it happens on other maps, as you sometimes see people shooting their BR's freaksihly fast, and your dead before you can say ZOMG!!

BTW whoever said he was lying, he is not, i was his teammate in that game TGC DIABOLICAL, and they were cheating. there was NO way we could have lost that match, because they were firing 2X faster than we were.

NOW do you believe me??
Who's in the wrong now?
Not me!!!
So it must be you guys.
I feel that Tombstone is the main map that people cheat on.
Go to my recent games until you find a Team Slayer BR, in which we had our asses kicked.
