Subject: cool trick with sniper on lockout

Greatest of all time

Zomg i never knew that! After 2 and a half years of playing halo and Lockout being my most favorite map i still never knew that.

P.S. Tell me who invented sarcasm so i can tell him how awesome he is.

Id have to show you for you to actually see how it works, but ill try and explain it.


Your bomb guy has to stand next to one of the rocks in front of red base (there is a certian one and a certian spot). He will face the rock and stand there. The warthog driver will turn his handicap to severe and drive up on red ridge. Then the hog will drive in a straight line and hit the bomb guy perfectly square and itll launch him across the map to the blue base. If done just right, you can actually put him in the roof of Blue base and land him exactly on the arm spot.


can u just stand there or do u have to crouch n hold forward? i learnt it by crouchin n holding forward.... i'm always the driver n i can get ppl on top of base or at rocket spawn 90% of the time.... we usually use that trick for capture the flag too. launch 2ppl over(one after another) they crouch while in the air, land on rocket spawn crouch into the base n get the flag without them seeing us till we're in... while there doing that i drive the warthog over with the forth guy on our team as gunner. drive back n score. round over in 30-40 seconds=)..... i do the same with assult to, just with a bomb instead of a flag. also instead of being gunner the forth person grabs sniper just in case =)

to the OP yes it is a old trick from when the map first came out, but thanks for posting it incase the newer players(yes not everyone has been playin since the begining) didnt know of this lil trick... dont worry about the ppl that are bashin u, they just dont like it when we try n help the ppl that dont know and are new coz they hate new players becoming good and beating them.... i swear thats what it is anyway. that or mayb there the 8yr olds that scream n talk trash on xbl n have managed to drag there sorry butts away from the tv screen to continue there annoying habits on here...

(EDIT) not all older players that have been here since the begining are like that, some are actually really helpful n are happy to help u out n show u some stuff if ur having any troubles....

also if anyone wants any of thes tricks shown to them u can also PM me....

just offering to help out KEVINBROCK so he doesnt get overwhelmed in PM's n friends request by ppl if they wanna know these lil tricks

lol yeah ive used the trick a few times myself, but i never like being a sniper in the open as it is so i usually just take the extra 3 second to jump up there from the front...

i dont understand why when someone makes a thread trying to help others, they get bashed. i realize a lot of people know this trick, and for those of you who do, you dont need to tell me that. im just helping people who dont know it, i dont care about people who do


they re not bashing u, they r just saying its old, which it is
