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.


hahaah WOW, you really think your something hey ?? Geez, talk about blowing your own -blam!- ing trumpet. Man you just can't get enough attention for that massive dome of yours. According to you and some of your posts, no one is impressive except yourself. You want to be centre of attention and as you've already said above................YOU have your OWN team and they will obey your every command at once should you wish to say something.

Your clearly a NUTBAR who plays the game 20 hours a day in your basement ( training as you call it )......hahahaaha awwwsume dude.

Oh and im sure we would all be as great as you are or maybe even better once we have played nearly 12, 000 games.......( as you have )

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!?

...always.

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.

I don't disagree with you on the big picture, but we're specifically talking about the combo here. People don't pick it up, even if they have a chance to, because they think it's stupid or unfair. What I'm saying is that people who are smart enough to realize that it is fair do pick it up and should be allowed to use it without being criticized.

Actually im at work on my break right now. And yes, I got good because I played alot. I dont call it training, I have no intentions of going to MLG or to any other tourney.

Im not the only impressive player on here. Im sure there are tons of really talented players that post on here wether I like them or not is a different story, but nonetheless I respect their abilities. This forum is mostly for all the bad kids to post their frusterations about why they suck so badly. I cant help that you guys cant keep up with the good players. Maybe instead of bashing the talented players or always talking about how bad they supposedly suck because they use certian tactics to beat you.....you could get lessons?

No, we arent sponsored nor do we want to be. A sponsorship just means that someone gives you money to go to events. Since we dont travel to events, we have no need for a sponsor. Besides, if I wanted to go to events id just pay for it myself so I dont have to sign commitment contracts.

I cant really tell yo uwhat rank we are because Clanmatch dosent exist anymore. I think we had a 27 in clanmatch before they decided to get rid of it so we just started messing around in it and lost a few.

Apparently you and I are misunderstanding each other. I AM NOT god's gift to Halo or this community, however, I do get sick of people bashing certian things when im well aware of how they improve the game. As far as MLg is concerned, ive been playing since the circuit started in 2004. Ive completely dedicated myself to mastering (if thats possible) the gametype and learning every facet of the game and all its maps.

Yes, I do know what im talking about and most of the time im happy to share my knowledge and help anyone out that wants to learn something but what I cannot stand is when people bash on certian aspects of MLG because they are completely uneducated on the subject. I realize that people are entitled to their opinions on MLG and all the contraversy that comes with it, but its my responsibility to put all the available information out there if I can...plus ill share my own thoughts quite a bit.

As far as my other posts are concerned, if someone says something that is completely stupid im going to let them know about it. Im not going to let someone open that big gaping pie hole and spread misinformation around without me at least trying to fix the problem or offer a counter-argument.

Accepted.


Its just that im trying to help people wether they want it or not. If people are going to talk about a certian subject they need to be informed about it. I cant sit idly by while people talk about MLG and its obvious they have no idea what they are talking about. When other people read those posts their opinions are swayed towards misinformation because they didnt have all the available facts. I may sound cocky but im not. I do, however, know what im talking about when it comes to MLG, it is my 'forte if you will. Sometimes I feel its necessarry to shed some light on a subject.

i no there will b more glitches but i bet they wont b insanely hard to do or very effective

have you ever actually tried pressing B-X-R. its actually about the easiest thing to do in the game. it only takes about .3 seconds to do. its kinda funny that you guys think that your suddenly going to get so much better when halo 3 comes out because there are no more button gliches when your still going to stink and then make up some unpractical excuse. just SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!

Do you ever see the hardcore pro's at MLG held tournements using button glitches and superjumps etc....ERRRRRR NO.

Why is that you wonder !! cos its cheating. i rest my case.

Superjumps are banned from MLG games for good reason. Button combos are fully embraced and pretty much necessary for survival. You don't get in the way of Walshy doubleshotting. It's just a bad idea. Every single pro button glitches at MLG events. Every single one.

The only people who complain about button glitches are low-ranked players incapable of properly performing them. The best example I can think of is a game of Rumble Pit I was playing. This guy was comboing for the entire game on Turf, so to finish the game I picked up a BR and gave him the old 1-2-Doubleshot to the face. He called me cheap! I thought it was absolutely hilarious for some idiot who uses combo all game to complain about getting doubleshotted.

Since the outcome of every game depends solely on who gets host, I think its hilarious that anyone takes halo 2 this seriously. From an American point of view, im sick of getting the short end of the stick just because i have an excellent connection(T1). ie, laggy people have no problem hitting me but I cant hit them cuz their connection is so bad. And on the subject of double-shotting, it is a skill just like superbouncing. with practice and determination anyone can do it. In case you didnt know, it isnt that easy to land dub shotz consistently.

also the noob combo thing (homing plasma shot) is gone!!! Halo 3 is the gonna b the best game ever!!! muahahaaha all the noobs will b crying


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.


HEY! Mario Kart* is a good game xD

I can use any button glitch easily, but i try my best not to since it is cheating, no matter what MLG says.

Yeah, that explains how I and the other people I play with can consistently win off-host. If you have such a big problem with host, play LAN games or custom games with people who you know have good connections.

You must be joking. Either youre joking or youre stupid, host is an advantage just like having rockets or another power weapon but it can be beaten. Its just one guy....if you dont like the gameplay go try Gears, I hear its pretty fun.
