Good Thread. It's pretty useful, and kinda shows everyone. Team work is essential in team based games, not just being tough stuff and take them all alone. Like players I've seen before.

Thanks for these useful tips. Also not to be advertising or anything but TC Legend and a few other MLG class players composed a great guide for matchmaking in halo 3. I have it, it costs about 35 dollars now a days. It has special jumps spots nade tosses weapon tips to use and avoid hell its got it all but personally I think they expect a little to much of someone who actually buys it. I mean I know I am bad, I know I have a less then 1 KpD and yes the guide helped me but it was not designed for john everyman. You on the other hand provide genuine motivation and strategies that work without rehearsing every situation. I hope you hit that 50 on your main account I know I will try!


hmm sounds interesting. link?


Here is the link you asked for, sorry I never responded, couldn't find this thread again lol, got it saved now :D

thanks, i just purchased it. I'll check it out and see what I see as very informative. It may help me out, and in turn, will help others out when I release my free ebook.

(no, i am not taking things directly from the Ebook by ProHaloTips.com, or the videos included, I just want to see if there are certain things I am forgetting, which I will include in my guide, in which all credit will go to the guide by prohalotips. And before anyone asks, the guide by prohalotips requires you to have an account and password to view it, so no, even if i wanted to, i couldn't send it to you. And no, i wont give you my password.)

Thread saved. Finally! SOMEBODY who understands the value of the SMG. Thank you!


lol thanks. Yep. Now with dual wielding such a rare occasion in Halo 3, the SMG has become a looked-over item... which it deffinately shouldn't be. I challenge anyone in here to an SMG vs. AR fight. SMG will win.

I didn't belive my friend when he told me that so we tested it.
Close range - SMG wins
Medium range - AR wins
That's what I figured but I could be wrong.

yep, thats why i said on maps like high ground and valhalla, it'd be safe to go with the AR over SMG, but on maps such as Guardian, Blackout, Ghost town, Epitaph, etc. I'd go with the SMG. Basically, if you know its a wider and more open area with little cover, use the AR, as it has a longer range. If its closer combat, use SMG.

NOTE:

Someone on here challenged me to a "run-at-the-person-while-shooting-and-then-melee" fight, with him using AR and me using SMG, and SMG won. We were on Guardian though, with me at S2 (middle sniper tower), and him in the middle from the upper lift.

most of the time, yes, but in long distance maps, it would be a good idea to stick with the AR for it's distance.

Reeeeeeeeeeeach, mmmmkay.

Good basic tips. Teamwork is the key.

Also a second gamertag helps. So many of us played a lot of social when the game first came out that we have this MASS of EXP. It's easier to rank up a 2nd tag when you have very little EXP.

Well, EXP does not directly effect your ranking, although it does semi-mirror your Sigma (a variable in the TrueSkill system). Each playlist is different, so it's like creating a new gamertag when a new playlist comes out.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Another strategy I use in TS is if no one on your team is good at headshots with the sniper, they can still body shot and have a teammate with a br finish the job. Or body shot, switch to br. It's what I do if I miss the head, which is a little less than 50% of the time.

Thats very good. I do this as well every time in MLG with my friends. In MLG, its all about total kills, not individual kills, and as I tell, you think the same way. It's just so easy to pull off a headshot with the BR that taking out the shields in an instant is crucial, as the sniper can do, and wasting shots for headshots is pointless. Just coordinate with teammates (i call them my "spotters"), and tell them where you're looking, then i say "shot on *input MLG callout*", and he'll just grab a headshot and get the kill.

Yes, you may end the game with a -8 spread from not getting as many kills, and your "spotter" will probably have like +19, but the TrueSkill system doesn't count spreads. It counts wins and losses, and this strategy can determine which one belongs to you.
