Not when you get to the thirties.

Tombstone - Top of green room.
Ascension - Top of Rocket Spawn (Careful not to spawn your teammates in the open, though)
Lockout - Library / BR 3
Burial Mounds - Nipples (with host) / Beam spawn
Turf - Scarab (I get on top of it using jumps. 100% legit)

The best spots are:
Lockout: BR2 if Radar is on, Sniper 2 if Radar is off
Ivory Tower: Around the lift area
Beaver Creek: Area around Teleporters
Ascension: Shotgun/Teleport Area
Terminal: Under Tracks
Burial Mounds: Rocket Area
Zanzibar: The small areas behind each turret

Those are the main spots if you want the most kills and are managable by yourself without cover from your teammates.

The 2 best Visa Credit Card jokes.
Halo 2- 55$
Xbox 360- 400$
Xbox Live- 45$

No Scoping a kid in the face who had the sword and hearing his squeeky voice go WHAT THE----as his voice gets cut out.

Burial Mounds: The closed area right before the rocket bridge

Lockout: Well basically anywhere.

Tombstone: Control room and back of red.

From my experience, at higher levels especially, teams like to hold down the beam rifle spawn area on Burial Mounds because thats where you get out of the map at. Same with the base at Zanzi.

Headlong - top floor in corner(sword) building
Terminal - upper level parking lot
Ascension - try to hide at shotgun hole, sniper roost, base, and make the other team spawn at Banshee pad
Burial Mounds - walk all around the edges of the map, where most of the cover is
Lockout - the best spot always seems to be the sniper tower

its good to mix it up and try something different they won't expect evry now and then. Like,

Lockout: crouching in sniper tower after barrels are gone. lower part of battle rifle tower looking down hallway

Backwash anywhere

Zanzibar:ontop of building were defending team is, the rockwall next to the sniper spawn.

Coag: behind the blue base and on the left of the red base(accessable by banshee only)

  • 07.29.2007 7:03 PM PDT

Headlong: By the road towards the beam rifle, the place you get to after you pass the camo place.
Terminal: At the very back where the hilly spots are, there is also an overshield close by there too.
Lockout: Back ramps of the battle rifle tower, you can be protect better then on the tower's roof, and not many people go there.
Tombstone: On the top of red base (not the part where you have to take the stairs) the huge space inbetween that and the map's walls. (There is a little tombstone stone thing there)
Burial Mounds: That level I think you have to keep moving around, nowhere is really to safe.

Though in team snipers, in Terminal try to stay on the upper level on the parking lot, and Headlong stay on the top level of red base. (Where the sword spawns)

Lockout - BR spawn on top of base
Ascension - Top of Big Base (only if you can no-scope or you have good secondary weapon)
Burial Mounds - Beam Rifle Spawn, Purple Tities, Rocket Spawn
Turf - Top of scarab (if you can jump there), Warthog Spawn
Ivory Tower - Boardwalk, where the trees are
Zanzibar - Top Wheel (if you can superbounce), Camp Froman (not on the ledge that goes higher)

You're asking people to state which non-released game they like better?

It's like asking a virgin whether they like being on top or on bottom.

Who snipes in spots? Good snipers in Halo always move around after one shot or two. I snipe while running so I never am in one spot.
