Subject: Need help with Double Shot and Quad Shot.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

I've tried doing them, but I can never get it. I can sometimes get the Double shot, but never the Quad Shot. I make sure I have a second weapon, then I do the button combos. (RRX and RXXYYRRX)

Do you have to time it right or something?

Why are you here?

It takes practice, but even when it looks like you are getting no where, you are making progress

I assume that was a typo but just to make sure, it's RRXYYRRX, no RXXYYRRX. I think it was probably just a typo but if that is what you're doing then that is your problem.

I am part of Forerunner Conflict, it is a war sim clan that has been going on for 5 years, if you would like to join or learn more about it feel free to message me

Press the x at the same time as the second R and try not to look at it while doing it

I hope you dont get it right, cheater.

You know that MLG players use this, right? Well, at least BxR.

I wish the game would be patched from those glitches.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

Wait, so those button "glitches" are considered "cheating"? Because I thought that Bungie knew about it, and they didn't fix it for a reason...

If it's really cheating, I won't use them!

BxR is cheap because it does something its not meant to.

B=melee
X=reload
R=fire

Now how is this supposed to come to a fair attack that everyone knows about and has equal ability using? If it did, it would be fair. Whether or not Bungie wishes to correct their old game is their affair, but it is a glitch, purposely ignored or not.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's the same as B then R, just that pressing X cancels the wait in between.

Not everyone knows this so its not fair to use. The n00bs your killing are not actually n00bs- it is that in fact you that are the n00b. *sigh* Use them if you insist... but I find it distasteful.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

I'm not going to use them. I see your point. I can't even do them well yet. (Just got the game yesterday)

Besides. I just went 32-8 when my team had one less player without using any of them. =D

Thanks for not bxr-ing. If you want, I play H2 all the time so you can add me to friends.

I'd love to add you. All my friends play Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4, but never Halo 2, because they all like Halo 3 better...

I need friends on Halo 2!

They aren't actually cheating. It is fair because everyone can do it. The only people that complain about them are n00bs that can't do them. Bungie knows about them and never fixed them. MLG uses all of the button combos, they are incredible at quadshotting. Don't worry, you cannot get banned for using them. Everyone respects a good quadshot, except for the people that complain about them, which there aren't very many.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

Think of it this way. Wouldn't it feel better to do awesome without it than with it?

No, I think it feels much better when I fight someone and kill them but I have no shields. His friend is right there and I look over and quadshot him for the double. That is much more gratifying because a quadshot takes a lot of skill. It takes much more skill than no scoping, thus it is more gratifying. I mainly use double shots as a last resort.

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

Look at this quote:

"It was utilitarian and when coupled with a mountain of button combinations, astonishingly lethal. Arguably too lethal."

That quote is from Bungie. http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid= 14347

Bungie says that the Battle Rifle in Halo 2 is too lethal with the button combos.

Yea, I have seen that numerous times, that is the only link anyone arguing about this ever shows. I don't care what bungie says about halo 2, I did when it first came out but after halo 3, bungie stopped caring about halo 2. I refer more to players and they seem to think it's okay.

My your own admittances, it isn't fair. Not everyone can do it. I can see what type you are, so I will cease arguing. It is cheating. End of story. Justify it to yourself at will, you've probably ruined dozens and dozens of games with your f****** combos.

  • 06.25.2008 10:09 PM PDT

"Tremble as teeming hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest error with instant death... again and again."

Well, of course they gave up Halo 2. Because Halo 3 has more players, and makes more money.

But, oh well.

I never said that it wasn't fair, I said that it was fair. Everyone can do it. That's like saying it's cheating if you crouch when you're playing someone with a joystick that sticks.
