Subject: Bizzare Halo kills! Tell your story!

Once I was in one of the BFM Racing servers (those jerks have a lot of rules) on Gephyrophobia.

So I was riding in the turret seat of a rocket hog, and we found ourselves behind at least 3 enemy warthogs (I think that the entire team was within those hogs). Eventually, they noticed we were beind them, and they all fired at us (2 rocket hogs and 1 regular, so we had a good ammount of ordinance flying at us). 2 rockets hit (and killed) us, but I had fired one rocket before I died.

What happened next, was that my rocket hit the back-most hog, and killed the one guy onboard. The lead hog fired its rockets, but it hit the other two or three hogs, resulting in the death of more or less the entire team, and I got the kills and a killtacular. The BFM admin then accused me of cheating and booted me.

The moral of the story: BFM are jerks.

The Ultimate Halo PC kill

I threw my disk at a wall, bought a 360, and played some better games.

THE END

Let me guess, after you got a 360, you played Halo 2 and got beat by "all teh noobs", and then threw your 360 at the wall, and went for a PS3, because you believe them when they use the marketing ploy "The best in entertainment.". And you sit there all day playing "the uber-1337ness" game Spiderman online, and "pwn all teh noobs". Cheah right.



No, in fact I do not play Halo 2 on my Xbox 360 which I am a proud owner of, I play Gears, forza 2, ect. And I didn't get rid of my Halo PC game because my friends told me "zomg teh new PS3 is out, overpriced, get it.", it was because of the modding on every server, people quitting in the first 5 seconds of the game, the -blam!-s that would constantly type annoying things on the screen, and the overall bullet lag of the game (just lead a little bit isn't a problem solver, it's an excuse for not solving a problem) So yes, that was my favorite Halo:PC kill.



If you don't play Halo PC, why are you here on this board? Where we discuss the game.

On Damnation, there was a snipers game, CTF, no shields. I got a triple killtacular throwing grenades and firing through the smoke. I eventually died getting the flag though.

You're wrong of course... That's still hilarious.

I've never killed anyone in Halo before.

Ever.

On purpose?

--Wonders because of your Bungienet ID


You know, that was actually quite funny.

I'm impressed.

They still exist? There's saying some topic about BFM saying how pointless their rules are. I actually got banned for having my clan tags on. (it was JLA btw). Thought they just died out of nowhere. I guess people are still into BFM.

Ok, here it is.

Race Clans too Strict?

Alright, this is from Boarding Action, and it was just one on one, on the X-Box.
Some info about the stats at the time:
Me: 12 shots left in my Pistol, Half-Health, No Sheilds.
My friend: Rocket Launcher with Full Ammo, Oversheild, and Full Health.

Now on to the story

I was looking around for my friend, and suddenly, he drops from the ceiling and shot me with the rocket, point blank, and not only am I NOT hurt, he is laying there, dead.

Not too exciting, but funny as Hell.

Let's see...

The large amount of backsmacks I've been getting lately are somewhat strange for me.
I think I killed a Banshee with a Plasma Pistol earlier today.
A couple of days ago, the combat I was going through synched up EXACTLY with the Marathon 2 theme. (Bleep)in' awesome time, I felt like an action movie hero.
I was able to close with a sniper from one side of Blood Gulch (Mind you, not that kind of side, I mean left-to-right when standing upon the blue base.) with a shotgun and mercilessly slaughter him from very close range.

k i have a complaint about "bizzare" kills,
anyone else here notice in halo 2 pc online that when you WHACK someone and then they WHACK you immediately back they kill you with that one hit which you failed to kill them with? i mean it happens to me EVERY TIME i whack them, i dont know if its a glitch or if the designers made it that way, but its kinda -blam!-

Well, speaking of whacking....


Worst lag story ever.

It was a 1-v-1 slayer game in Blood Gulch. I'd been having a plasma shoot out with the guy for ages. We both finally ran out of juice on the plasmas. So we switch over to pistols. I empty a clip into him while he was reloading, then ran up and whacked him twice. I still have full shield and health. He just got shot 12 times and whacked in the head twice. He hits me once. I die. And not even in the back of the head for auto-kill. He just whacks me once while I'm whacking him and I go down. Right after I respawn, he's coming at me with the pistol, and just dies. I get credit for the kill. After he dies, I zoom to the other end of the map and back, then into the cavern thing where the flamethrower is, then back to where I respawned. I was so lost I juststarted running in circles and shooting wildly. I actually got in 2 more kills.

I love it when that happens.

This isn't bizarre but I think it's really quite funny-
OVer the course of my last few games there have been lots of people who try to run me over either with a hog or a shee. And with the exception of 4 or 5 times, I'd wipe em out with my plas rifle and shottie by the time they got near me. Then half the time they'd get back in their vehicles and try so hard over and over again to kill me with vehicles... using the same tactic.
Itd be like this- shee takes off, starts coming at me guns blazing, gets near and then dies. Reload and repeat.

i was playing sidewinder ctf then i got the camo(the one near enemys base), went out the tunnel thingy(the ground level one), then went in their base. they had a rocket warthog in there so i stuck it and everyone was either dead or their shields were down. so i took the flag, went through the portals, and scored

  • 07.20.2007 1:00 PM PDT

I can tell by the look on your mom, that you think I'm cool...

oops, did I just steal a cookie?

This guy was chasing me with the energy sord on Lockout and I accadently jumped off of the edge. So as I was falling I threw a plasma granade up and it stuck to the guy with the sord.

Some of my accidental kills where;

1.Onbeaver creek(edit) i threw a plasma grenade up in the air from the blue base and it landed on somebodys face on the red base

2.On zanzibar i had a sniper(human)with only one shot left. Somebody was getting in ghost about 70ft away, and i jumped in the air and shot without really aiming and got a head shot.(i had a rocket as my other gun, so thats why i just wasted my last shot, i was not expecting it to be a hit.)

This one happened this morning before I went to the movies...

I was in Blood Gulch, CTF game.
I was on the blue team.
3 reds vs. 2 blues.
I get over to the red base and a guy starts shooting at me with a shee.
I kill him with my shotgun.
Shee falls and slides some, killing one of his teammates and him just as he respawned.
Other red guy is afk, so I got the flag and scored.

Playing a 3v3 KW on a Texas server against some good US players, the game is hang em high team slayer no heavies.

The score is 48-48 with only a few seconds remaining, and although they have ping advantage, we have map control, I tell my team to hold back and it appears that the opposition is also holding back, with only a couple of seconds to go I pop out and 3sk an enemy with only a fraction of a second left of the game and then die. Luckily their kill was out of time and we won 49-48 in one of the most intense matches I have ever played.

This isn't "bizzare" but sticking an enemy rocket hog near your base in B.G and watching it fly on top of your base. What happened was there was an approaching rocket hog and I managed to stick it, hence the previous sentence. Anyway, I managed to whoop the driver but the gunner managed to survive on top of that base. I 'naded him and I managed to get two kills from a pretty interesting plasma 'nade throw.

Once, I think it was a FFA King on Derelict, I shot someone with a plasma pistol and melled him at the same time. he was killed by the guardians. No credit. D:

Another, on Blood Gulch, it was me and this one guy. I was trying to run him over with a hog, but he shot me with a rocket at just the right spot, killing me, and the hog kept going and killed him. No credit for that either.

In Halo 2 there are many Glitches, one of them being a melee glitch.
there is a video about some glitches in the multiplayer but I just want to point out that there are 3 melee strengths, and certain actions that make the melee a certain strength

1 - weakest melee is a standing melee, which involves you hitting him while YOU are standing still

2 - good melee involves you running up to your opponent and hitting, also known as running melee

3 - BEST MELEE is a jumping melee, where you jump near your opponent and hit em on your way DOWN

(note: These melees only work if you hit your opponents' front or side, hitting from back is an instant kill)

On single player, the first level. There was an elite on Legendary who had my number. I couldnt get around it and I was out of nades. There is absolutely no one around but me and him. From behind cover, I heard that sound when elite take damage... followed by the scream of death. I walk over and hes just dead with no one around.

On multiplayer I had a single rocket and two banshees coming after me on Timberland. I was just about to make it into the base when I turned and fired the rocket randomly. Somehow the two banshees were close enough to be hit by a single rocket.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.

Yeah, those dudes on BFM have way too many rules. Plus, they suck.

[EDIT]

By the way, I was playing on Blood Gulch today in the morning, and this rocket warthog was spawn camping us and running around the base. I was coming from the hill with plasma grenades to grab some more sniper ammo. I was running towards my base when suddenly the warthog trys to run me over. Luckily, the gunner sucked gunning rockets and didn´t land a hit on me. I stuck a plasma grenade on the driver´s head and kill the three of them. The warthog flewover to my base, thus falling on the two blues running towards the portal, with the flag. Hahaha...

I'm playing the Halo demo CTF at Blood Gulch and I I grab a banshee. Some guy starts cursing at me for killing him when I just went and blew the warthog with hostiles. Now the guy is shooting me with the assault rifle and I'm thinking What? you want the banshee well first come first serve. So I kill him. Then I fly to the enemy base and blow out like 2 guys. They call me noob(and most people dont even leave their banshees while I get out alot) typical. The game ends to a draw. So Roy starts flaming me and I'm like what did I do. He says that I killed him. Now I had no clue since I paid more attention to the screen than what I killed.

On Infinity: I come out the top teleport to the bridge, see a red in front, shoot once with pistol and throw a plasma grenade. It hits the guy, who dodges out the way of the plasma grenade off the edge of the bridge. The grenade on the other hand... hits the guy directly behind him in the face.

Yeah, that was hilarious.

On Blood Gulch, an idiot was trying to run me over with a hog.. fortunately, my trusty plasma grenade stuck his wheel. He jumped out, the plasma grenade exploded... and the explosion sent the hog bouncing off the hillside and directly back at him, squishing him.

Oh, and just now on Ice fields... I was typing a long sentence out, when an enemy threw a grenade at me... fortunately, I managed to finish the sentence and start fighting back, taking down his shields and health.. except suddenly he stops as well, obviously typing. I stand near him, waiting for him to finish (since I'm just as honourable) and wait for him to finish. THEN, another red comes along and throws a grenade at me. It bounces off my face and lands at our feet, killing the typing guy but NOT me. A lucky 3sk later...

It was pretty funny, since it turns out he was apologising for nearly typekilling me... XD in the end he got TK'd AND typekilled.

One more thing... I just love Death Island, because you can do this...
