*tisk tisk* What a waste of bandwidth. Liton, Sniper 00029, and Draerden. You guys are not a waste of space. it is those other two idiots that are spamming up the forum.

I don't need a tissue, I have a life, I could care less if anyone agrees with me and this topic was originally meant for good debate on tactics, not a senseless flame war.

*sigh*

Such fools.

Again moderators I am asking you to lock the thread.

No one else respond to this, there is no need to feed the fire.



Yes, your life consists of playing Halo all day (occasionally posting here), and writing five paragraph tactic reports for a video game that game out two years ago. In the wrong section no less. Again sad story, and again the idiot crack is funny. Being as you are so smart, try posting in the correct section next time. This is the Halo 2 section. This thread should be locked because it's in the wrong place.

Wait wait wait-
Did I do something wrong? I was just trying to provide an alternate view point, not flame anyone at all. I respect what Hikaru said, and I was merely trying to build on it. Sorry if I said anything derogatory ;(

That was well done Ragnarok, thanks for the paragraphing. It made all the difference.

You're right as far as Halo goes but a true sniper is dead the moment he allows his position to be spotted and no sniper would ever fire on the run, it's just not possible.

That's rather why I was hoping for some jitter and noise in the control of the sniper rifle in Halo2, to bring sniping as a skill back to the sniper rifle. To make it a little more real.

I'm also going to be happy to see more cover in Halo2. Halo1 was long empty spaces which made maneuvering for position with the sniper rifle a little bit annoying.

To the moderators.

I know you are reading this thread.

I would kindly ask that you would lock it down. It seems we have a few idiots roaming around spamming it up and wasting Bungie's precious bandwidth. From what I can tell they are lacking in intelligence and thus are ruining the original topic that this thread was made for. They are incapable of realizing that the 9AM to 2AM is way too damn much for just one person and that such an amount of time is a joke, no matter how much the player enjoys Halo and other amazing Bungie products. They are making pointless flames and baseless attacks. They are a shame on the Bungie forums as a whole. Their representation is a bad example for newcomers and veterans alike.

They are wasting our time and our effort at smacking them upside the head.

I'll ask once more. Lock my own thread. Please. Thank you for your time.


Indeed, lock it up. Some people ^^^^^^^^^^^^ are idiots and can't take other people opinions and think that they are the only ones that are right. CAN"T EVEN PUT A TOPIC IN THE RIGHT FORUM. This forums are starting to go to hell. With all the new people coming in making repeat threads and the same questions over and over. Then there are people who can't even put their thread in the correct forum (new Mombasa = halo 2, what the hell is so hard about that). Then there is hikaru, learn to take others opinion. Your word is not the word of god. Camping is a tactic for sniping.... and ur just..... a fU*king @s$hole (/flaming)


People need to be less opinionated on this thread such as "camping isn't sniping", well, if i have a sniper rifle in my hand, and i just killed you from 500m away, i think it's sniping, who cares if I move or not, ur falt u can't kill me.

And most people that are good at halo don't go around like some people (hikaru) acting like they are so 733t in sniping. Most people I have played that say they are good really suck, because they don't get out and only play the same people. Where I have seen other people who are quiet and turn out to kick my ass.

Hikaru, letting the mods close this down is letting them get their way, you should do what you told me to do, don't feed them. Just ignore them and get on with your posts. Besides, if it weren't 10:30 You'd get alot of people here

Very much so, Drae. And thanks.

I agree. I really think the sniper control should be kind of a cross between the unsteadiness of Rainbow Six 3 and the controllable zoom of SC:PT's. Then again, Master Chief is super uber mega strong, so it probably won't happen. I mean, he can flip over a tank. What's stopping him from having an unwavering gaze through a zoom lens?

Okay then this is my last post inside this thread. You people just aren't worth my time anymore.

My life consists of anime, Halo, God, my interest in the US military, my girlfriend, my ever growing collection of guns, writing stories, and politics. So there's more than just Halo and here. As for the wrong section. I posted this in every section excluding the Septagon and Underground. And it should be locked because of people deviating from the original post on such a large level.



So, you posted it in eight wrong sections? This guy is the epitome of narcissism. Unstick yourself from yourself, and realize other people have different opinions. Not worth your time? Yeah it could be better spent writing tactic reports for a video game, and then posting them all over the boards (btw against the rules Mr. Bungie brown noser) so you can get attention. I wouldn't want to take away from your time.

Hikaru's smart. He took the time to type something up. At least respect him for that, even if you disagree. He and I share some common interests, so I can sort of relate. He likes anime and Halo, as do I. He has an interest in God, which I consider very important. He likes writing stories, something I've nearly devoted my life to. And he has a girlfriend.

....


OK, I can't relate to that one, but I can still defend him. How old are some of you people? Argue logically, please. I'm not trying to flame anyone, and I doubt any flames were intended to be allowed into this thread by Hikaru. Respect him. You're posts aren't just annoying- they're downright hypocritical. Now everyone has to put their heads down until you can all say sorry.

So let me get this straight. He's smart because he can type? There are monkeys that can type, so should I respect them too? Who cares about his interests? Or yours? Or mine? Cartoons (yes anime) are stupid, God is a joke, and I have a girlfriend. Where's my respect? Get serious. I'm 22 why do you ask? I'm not the one acting immature and spamming the website. I will not respect an idiot brown noser who can't even follow the rules of the company he's brown nosing. Please explain to me how my posts are hypocritical.

Hm? I just came to the conclusion that if people don't just see things for what they are then it'd be best to leave it alone. An example: You blamed me (or Hikaru) for being immature, yet you were the one who was instigating. If nothing else, just leave it alone.

I didn't blame you for anything, I was talking about the moronic starter of this theard. I wasn't instigating, I stated my opinion, for which I was called an idiot. That's where the problem started. You seem to have not read all the post so...You should leave it alone. At least untill you do.

You guys quit bickering sniping takes alot of skill to be a good sniper. If someone is "camping" then have someone on your team take him down. if you have read subnova's e3 impressions they say the sniper rifle kicks after each shot ala Return to Castle Wolfenstein thus forcing players to go for headshots thus keep ppl from spraying and praying from a distance, so only skilled player can use sniper rifles. And being a sniping fanatic I believe if someone is sniping my team It's my job to take him down its all part of real warfare and thus extremly fun, as the saying goes "you play to win the game" thus I usually try not to complain when someone kills me
