Subject: Double Shotting/ Bxr-ing in ranked matches

Circumstances do not make the man, they merely reveal himself to himself.

Many ppl do double shots or bxrs, they are as common as a superjump, but to pull of these things in ranked matches i believe is wrong. It isnt an actual function of the game that they explain to u. Not everyone knows how to do it, or at least do it well. Im always in a ranked match of team slayer or hardcore and someone decides to just bxr or double shot me, result: we lose the game, my rank goes down. U guys express ur hate or love for the glitch, i dont care, then tell me y

Button glitches arn't illegal in MLG, people do them all the time. Superjumping is against the rules, but bxr and double shot are not.

I have a few things to say here. First off, how do you know what kind of glitches will or wont be in Halo 3? Can you see the future? The H3 Beta was a TESTER. A beta is simply a very early version of a game, you have no idea what the finished product will be like. Besides, just ecause there wont be a BxR as of right now dosent mean there wont be button glitches. Someone will find new ones within a few days.

Secondly, I cant stand it when little kids cry because the other team uses the combo against them or uses button glitches. Just because MLG players use everything available to us on the map and we train to get map control, you people sit there and whine about it not being fair. I hate to tell you this and it probobally will come as a shock to your tiny brain, but we would still be destroying your kind without button glitches. My players will stop using them on command if I tell them to and we still dont even come close to losing. ITS CALLED BEING BETTER THAN YOU! Now quit whining and making excuses as to why you suck and go play some Mario Cart.

noob combo isnt being better than someone literally anyone can pull it off, and kill anyone with it. I half dead monkey retard that has no arms culd probably pull it off and kill u. That is how simple it is, and xbox magazine, says they have gotten rid of both with a personal interview with Bungie staff

They havn't gotten rid of the BR or Plasma Pistol, all they've done is make the PP track less. It's still a lethal combo that was never unfair to begin with. If you're smart enough to pick it up you should have the advantage of the combo.

Since when has picking up a useful weapon in halo 2 been a test of smartness, rather than where you spawn!?

hmm....fine so the noob combo isnt so bad....but ppl really yell at u wen u do it in a game, i mean wen i ever use it at the end they just keep callin me "noob, u suck, ur a noob" all that stuff. I ignore it naturally but it still pisses me off wen someone uses it. Ill try to get more accustomed and accept it. Other than that im a good player, i play good, i act mature ( i guess wat i really hate is ppl with noob combos that brag their butts off, no wat i mean?)

Even if they do get rid of it, its typical that Bungie would play down the game for the bad kids of the world. Since most of the players on here range in skill from absolutely horrible to bad id say right off that they would do stuff like that to please their audience. Ive played with the Bungie guys and I have to say I wasnt impressed in the least. Its their way of evening out the playing field so that the bad players can get a few more kills. I hate to tell you but when H3 comes out it wont make any difference. Do you want to know in one word what truly makes a good Halo player?


ADAPTABILITY- The ability to adapt to every situation and tactic used by the other team. Good teams know when their strats arent working and they know how to shift them on the fly so that they can make it more effective.

Only bad kids brag about basic kills. I dont allow my clan members to brag about anything less than a Kill Frenzy or a Berzerker I dont care how cool it is. No one cares about your kill or even how you got it, good players do it all the time and im almost complacent because ive gotten so many "leet" kills.

Never.

There's no smart decison making involved in picking up the combo, any more than there is picking up the sniper or rockets. Either the weapon is there and you take it or it is not.
