I just got done playing Double Team and i was called a "Noob" for using the sniper rifle on ivory tower? Umm... since when is that an easy thing to use or at least being called a newb for it. They said that all you had to do was sit in a corner and camp with it and wait for peoploe to come next to you. Being there is a rocket launcher, sword, BR, and more snipe ammo that respwans every 5 seconds, do you agree with me that the snipe is NOT a noob weapon and is not easy to use....Unless you know how to use it.

Dude who cares. Maybe you should tranquilize your ego. It's a game, settle down, quit trying to justify your opinion because somebody called you a name. Playing the victim sucks, so knock it off. There's your advice.

let them eat cake. I gurantee you when they have all the power weapons they won't complain. To remedy snipers camping snipe spawn, bounce grenades off the ceiling from below, or grab dual needlers and sneak around to the near part of the ring where you can see them, preferrably with a teammate for bait.

You can run. But you will only die tired.

It's called talking trash. Don't let it get to you that's the whole point of it to make you mad and get you to make mistakes and be sure to talk it back.

Answer the talk with NO SCOPE TEABAG when you nail one of them.

That's why I hate that map, too many powerweapons in a small confined space

My only issue is the sniper spawn time. Its a bit too fast, but at the same time sniper usually isn't an overbearing issue in the average game.

all the double team games are absurd, all they do is throw grenades, get noob combo and other noobish weapons. I recommend Bungie to ban sniper, rockets, rifles and grenades, that way, it will have more balanced and more fair for double team matches.

Rofl. So half the weapons in the game are "noob" now?

Using the sniper on IT is the exact OPPOSITE of noob, anyways. It's really not a sniper friendly level (yeah, I know it has its uses, but I'd take the rocket, shotty, sword, or even BR over it), and using it continuously can be a challenge against a half-decent team. Hell, my best weapon is the snipe, and I don't even use it on IT.

Therefore, I think you made those other guys jealous by kicking their ass. Thus, they complained. Like someone else said before, they are just trying to rattle you. Either talk crap back to them, or ignore them completely. Nothing shuts up trash-talkers like staying silent and not responding. Better yet, mute everyone in the game. Do you REALLY need to hear voice in Matchmaking on Live anyways?

I refer those weapons as "noob" because it doesn't require much of the skills, well, except for the rifles, but that's it, sniper rifle may involve some skills, but however, sniper is overpowering in dt. so yeah.

The sniper is most definitely not a "noob" weapon, like those people said. It looks like the players in your game couldn't keep their cool and were upset about losing, and they attacked whatever (or whoever) they could to vent their frustrations.

One thing to keep in mind is that whatever insults they yelled don't matter in the slightest. You played the game (obviously not how they wanted you to), and they're upset about it. I'd recommend turning off your microphone input when you aren't playing with friends. This sacrifices your ability to work well together with teammates that use a lot of communication, but if you're not having fun because you're forced to listen to angry people while playing, then it's well worth it.
