I know that thanks to X-Box LIVE we can now taunt and jeer at our opponents as well as talk to our fellow teammates thats to the headset but i was wondering if it would be good to have afew default taunts. now as far as i know, the D-pad hasn't got any use in halo 2 so far so each direction could do a taunt that everyone (or at least enemies) could hear.
for example your an elite and you see someone so you click on the d-pad and the words "wort wort wort!" boom over the headsets of all the players. someones knows that they're in trouble. you hit them in the back of the head with a plasma sword and click the d-pad again to do the elite laugh they do when they kill you in the main game. that would be cool and would really add to the atmosphere of the multiplayer game. spartans could be given some cool phrases too.
I'd like to know 2 things, what do you think of my auto taunt idea and what are your own personal things you would say as taunts when playing halo 2 on x-box live?

Some idiots would keep pressing the wort wort wort, making it really annoying.

I'm not a big taunter when it comes to games.

I believe it did. That would be cool, but like someone already said, some n00bs woulds abuse it and it would get very very annoying. Maybe, instead of spoken taunts they have the action taunts like in UT 2004. Like you push up on the D-pad and you do the Halo hump.

I'd prefer to do my taunting personally. i think proximity voice will allow this.

I dont like taunting in Unreal and it would certainly be annoying in this.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

How about just taunting them through your headset? Or yelling at them at a LAN party.
