Hey halo fanskis.
Im sure you all know the feeling of playing Halo mulitplayer with a pal who hasnt played Halo before, or rarely plays it, or is just plain rubbish at it. My question is, when in this scenario, what do you do? Do you play less well than normal, let your pal win, or absolutely positively annihilate them?

What I would do is this:

Let him/her take me out, by doing the stupidest things you can do. Like stand miles out in the open (and still) so he/she can easily take me out with a sniper rifle. Or, on Sidewinder, when you can see him/her coming through a teleport that leads to you, stand completely still with your sniper rifle out (pretending to look for him/her through the scope).

Then when he/she is winning by miles (and is really boasting about it), let's say 12 - 3 on a 'frist to 15 slayer match'. Once it reaches around there, turn on him/her, show no mercy and pummel him/her into the ground!

It gives them the chance to get a little better with the easy shots and makes him/her feel like they are really becoming a better player (maybe even better than you! lol). The point at which you turn nasty and really start to play is when you show them what you're made of.

Just eb as stupid as possible like on Hang em High. I was playing with my little brother and the whole time I was jumping on the blocks.
