Fred was born with a pigeon's wing. people never made fun of him, though. one day he looked in the mirror and saw that HE WAS A PIDGEON! he pooped right there as he often did, wherever he was.

Since this is bungie.net, its only a matter of time til somebody comes and insults you for not being a 50 and making this thread. But Im not that person. Good thread and good luck getting your 50 in the future

I have been here since 2003, but in a site update my account was deleted.

I can't believe it's taken 13 pages to say "Get host every game if you want a 50."

This thread sounds oddly familiar, is it taken from anywhere, or any part of it? If not, congrats on a great write up.


Nope. Completely created here. I've seen it quoted a few times, but I can guarantee it was created and featured here. Even on my site in progress-

I've linked back to this site.

Heh it's alright. This thread was actually made back in... ummm... march? At the time, I was a 47 on this account, and 50 on another. When told that I couldn't get a 50 on my main account (shadowstrike1), I took up the challenge, and got it on my main account as well (well into 1,300 exp).

The video was obviously at a very low level. I think that it would be much more helpful if you would post a game at a higher level, just to see how much communication and strategy comes into play.

My only problem is I don't have any people on my friends list that are really the same skill level as me.

I've gotten to a 49 by myself, but every time I try to get a spree going something gets messed up.

Across all accounts I've gotten two 47's, a 46, a 48, a 45, and a 49.

I just need a good partner.

The next video is actually focussing on specific details and tips, rather than a game, and is featuring the map The Pit. For a future video, I think I might break down a game that will have my whole team in it. Perhaps I'll get them to do some voice overs as well... hmm...

By details and tips, do you mean stuff like jumps and set-ups specific to that map?

Once again, Shadowstrike, I must thank you for this thread. It's quite motivational, and provides awesome tips. Hopefully, I might be able to get my 45 soon!


Oh an also, how strongly do you recommend using Bumper Jumper to help increase your playing ability? I switched about 2 months ago (really that long!?) And I love it. It has helped me get out of a lot of sticky situations.

If you would like to know more about Mythic difficulty please go to this thread. Thank you.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

These are very helpful yet even basic tips, it's amazing what a decent knowledge of the game can do for you. Thanks for taking the time to write this up, I know I've learned a few things.

It will include special jumps (such as how to jump from Top Snipe to Training), grenade bounces (learn to take out the Top Snipe from any angle, or clear any hill), Set-ups for your team (Will help you control the map), how to start out (tips on what you should should right at the beginning to give your team an edge), how to control spawns (will help you know when and where the enemy will spawn so your sniper can take them out easily), and many other things you'll just have to wait for.

omg a genral thats not a total douche. thanks alot


np, glad I could help. But keep in mind, Generals get smack talked too. That's the downside. It seems now-a-days that according to everyone else, I must win every game, especially if it is against lower level players. I am not allowed to lose, as it seems. Nor am I allowed to use any weapon besides the BR and Sniper, and if that's all I use, then thats all I can use. If I dont abide by these rules, I obviously bought my account.

But thats a little off topic, and for a different thread entirely. Just keep in mind that those things are going both ways.

halo 3 timer is genius. altogh the vice sonds like a 10year old. nevertheless, its a good program for mid-level to want to go pro gamers who need some help with timings.
