LEAD WITH CONVICTION

I'm sure all of you see it on a daily basis...you're about to die, and you being to throw a last second nade in hopes to kill someone......you die with nade in hand and it disappears.......or shot a rocket and the same thing happens. WTF!!!!! If it's in your hand and you can see it should at least explode where you land when you die. Or the rocket should fire off. So lets hear it...does this piss you off or not?

Happens all the time. You think you'll get a kill from "beyond the grave" because you SEE a grenade start to leave your hand and bam, nothing happens.

Yeah. You decide to throw the grenade, your xbox sends this information to the host xbox - but because of the delay the data takes to get there, the host ignores it as it has already decided you are dead. This delay, called latency or ping, is everything in real-time online gaming. It is the reason for all the crazy BS you've ever had happen and it is the reason that being the host or playing on system link is so much better.

It is rather annoying.

Anywise, you shouldn't get angry over this and submit your personal problems here. You're simply inciting other members to contribute aggression and anger aswell.

Follow your signature's advice; logic over emotion. Logically, if this incident occured, you'd accept that it is annoying, then, you'd get over it.

Haha, today I was playing Team Training as an Elite to make people embarrassed they got owned by an Elite, and you know how when you get shot in the face by a sniper you do a back flip? Well, I was throwing a suicide stick, right when I got shot in the Head, and I did a back flip, came around, caught the sticky in my crotch, ended up on the ground, and when the sniper started to Teabag me it exploded. ROFLMAO. It was so extremely funny!

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

I didn't know bragging was the topic.

It's not. Who bragged? If you are talking about my post, I was explaining why I was an Elite, and how the sticky caught my over sized body during the back flip. I was just sharing an amusing story.

I've had the same thing happen 2 times in one game. I saw the nade stick somebody...and they walked around for a split second and it exploded...but no death. AAAGGGHHH!!!

RIP Halo 2.

It's the frsutrating result of how Halo 2's netcode handles off-host latency when dealing with grenades. Yes, it sucks. They fixed it in the Halo 3 Beta though.

You guys are wrong, nades never dissapear and rockets always fire. Maybe you guys just have your handicaps on?
