WHAT KIND OF PLAYER ARE YOU?

Below is a quiz for Halo 2 players to find out who they are. This was originally stated in a past Bungie.net Weekly Update from KPaul last September. Just as a reminder, while the quiz is functional, however, it is obviously in no way accurate and entirely for entertainment value. This whole thing is just for fun so don't flip out if it turns out that my quiz says you're a jerk. You may not be. But you probably are. Here is a list of several different types of Halo players in general.

AVERAGE DUDEGUY

Simultaneously the most common yet least conspicuous type of Halo player, the Dudeguy can be found online after a day at school and/or work winding down with a few matches on XBL. The Dudeguy typically logs on with one or more other Dudeguys, often forming a party, and plays largely in customs and unranked or low-level matchmaking. Sadly, the Dudeguy is preyed upon by the baddies of XBL. Fortunately for the Dudeguy, however, he has become proficient at muting and ignoring jerks.CAPTAIN COOLGUY

He’s only on the internet to take a break from all the hot babes waiting for him in his bedroom, as his thousands of hours in Halo 2 clearly illustrates. Not only is there a girl, who totally isn't his mom, audible in the background, but he has made it clear that he has % seasonal sport practice tomorrow morning so this is his last game of the night. Should you happen to catch him on a weekend night, he begins to slur his speech for he has packed in a full night of drinking and partying, yet has returned before 7pm. Be especially careful should you happen to run into a pair of Coolguys, they spin such a strong web of lies that they can convince each other the exact extent to which their beans are cooled. With their powers combined they form the pre-eminent force in jerkbaggery.BALLUS NON-DROPUS

Hidden deep within the recesses of his parents’ basement, the Ballus Non-Dropus dwells miraculously out of earshot of his potentially allowance-revoking parents. He runs around screaming in an attempt to break the glass windows on Zanzibar. Last week, his parents took away his computer privileges because he wasn’t back in from killing ants immediately after the streetlights turned on. Now he works to make everyone feel his immense sorrow. Also... he wants his mother-blam!- chocolate milk. Truly, his is the life of the hard knocks.THE ANGRY PSYCHO

This Halo player typically gives him or herself away in the pre-game lobby with a loud, idle threat directed at the first person that says anything. Said threat typically involves several profanities and often-times forcibly placing foreign objects into various orifices. The Angry Psycho’s affliction is present during the game but is most prevalent in the post-game screen when even more threats are dished out based on the material given to him during the game, typically by the troll-feeding Aggro.THE AGGRO

The Aggro is similar to the Angry Psycho and oftentimes the line between the two is thin. The key difference is that the Aggro needs to be prompted into action by one of a number of different players but the Angry Psycho is the yin to the Psycho's yang. The Aggro can be cool in a game full of Dudeguys but take care not to provoke him, for not only could he totally take you on in a match of fisticuffs if he “saw you on the street ,” but he also knows this dude who works at Bungie who could totally ban your ass.THE MODDER

Nothing screams self-confidence issues like cheating in a game on the internet for the sake of a meaningless number that you know is meaningless because you made it meaningless. Feeble and likely impotent, cheaters spend their weekends scouring the internet for leet nu chetz to unleash upon their next opponents. When it catches up to them soon thereafter, they fruitlessly send Bungie scathing emails threatening lawsuits, boycotts and poor little Jeremiah's life, unless we remove their well-earned ban. When they’re done with Halo they move on to their next fix. Cheating in Halo 2 is like a gateway cheat, in that manner. It leads to harder mods that lead them deeper down the dark rabbit hole until finally they attempt to chetz the IRS and are never seen again.HOST HAX 'R' US

This is the kind of person who is so l33t at networking that they can hit the standby button, or better yet they know how to view current connections! Back in the day they even, like, totally had this program on AOL 5.0 that could kick you from the internets. Not only are they thusly hax, but they can even hack into Microsoft and delete the feedback you leave them! Oh wait, no they can’t. After a short time they find themselves in the same position as The Modder: banned from Matchmaking and shocked that Bungie would do such a thing as attempt maintain the integrity of their product.THE FAUX PRO

These guys are easily identified. Here’s a quick guide: the more X's, l's and/or 0's they have in their name, the more they suffer from the devastating and socially crippling disease of Faux Pro-ness. They develop this complex from many long nights of gaming with other Faux Pros who eventually rub off on them. As with the Coolguys, Faux Pros often travel in packs and can be seen trolling Team Training, Team Actionsack and other unranked play lists that they can get gross mismatches in. Another behavior indicative of Faux Pros is their tendency to use the term “n00b” and especially the phrase “n00b combo."

I'm halfway between Average Dudeguy and Aggro. I like to stay quiet and keep to myself and say good game, but if anyone gets lippy or acts a jerk towards me I go nuts.

The truth is out there. We're just not looking in the right places.

Same guy as above.

SB-117

This quiz should be called: "What kind of cheater are you?".

Nevertheless, it says I'm an angry psycho so it must have done something right.

edit: Fix't a typo.

Carrots.

Aggro, but I CHOSE to be an aggro. More for psychological effect then anything else. I like to be quiet the whole game the bust out in a berserkergang rivaling the true nord berserkers.
My favorite thing is to usually go up someplace high with a weapon that has a fast melee speed. Whenever I see someone crossing below, I instantly jump down and start screaming my lungs off constantly running towards the opponent and beating him down. The result is complete overwhelming of the opponent's senses, resulting in a strangeley satisfying kill for me. Normally people do: melee, step back, mellee again. Even thaugh stepping back doesn't work.
It works like this:
I run at my foes constantly. They can't see anything except my helmet in their visor.
Screaming so that they can't hear anything.
And the melee speed of the weapon makes the controller vibrate.

Skill.

LOL, I guess I'm kind of like a mix between the Average Dudeguy and the Faux Pro. I usually log on, with friends I like to play with and play customs, but of course I'm a mainly MLG player, and in times of extreme boredom, or when there's only a few friends on, I entertain myself by killing guests in Team Training, lol.
