Subject: Any tips?

Yesterday, I played a multiplayer game 2V2 with my friend. I manage to win technically cause my dad fetch me from his house when I was about to finish. We played at Headlong and both of us are good. HE manage to kill me with dual magnums several times and the human sniper.

So any tips for me to play better? Just to tell you that I only use Covenant weapons yesterday cause I played as an elite.

He doesn't have Xbox live so thats why we play 2V2. But if his cousins come, we play 4V4

I think he meant Headlong is the problem, not 2v2. Headlong is one of the largest maps in the game, it is not very well suited for four people.

Don't only use covie weapons. And don't be an elite, bigger hit boxes.

Covenant weapons - take shields down faster but harder to kill
human weapons - kill faster but take down shields slower

hmmm i am not understanding this post.

If covenant weapons take shields down faster, how can it be harder to kill. I mean once someones shield has gone, its practically gameover. You only need to fart after shields. If human weapons kill faster, does it matter about the shields ?

You probably know what you mean with your post, but it really doesnt make sense to me. lol

OP, you really do need to start getting good with that BR..... nade and BR combo is deadly. Don't waste sniper ammo trying to grab that headshot. 2 body shots is enough..... never stay in the same place either. Best bit of advice i can give you though is this....... when confronted by a member of the other team, try and put yourself in their shoes and think quickly. Are they going to flank back around and surprise you, are hiding cos they know you will come rushing as they have the sword etc.... so what i am saying is, try and be clever.

Usually the smartest players come out on top.

Covie weapons do the most shield damage, but as you can't get headshots with them, they're hard to finish kills with. Look at it logically, energy shields are made of energy right? Plasma rifle, sounds like energy to me. Covie weapons weaken so you can finsh them off with a bullet. It's like if you Tazer a guy, it's gonna much easier to finish em off. Sorry if i ranted a little, anyway, the best combos come from a combination of energy and bullets, If you want a REALLY effective combo, try Plasma rifle and SMG. It may seem Nooby, but if used correctly, it can be a power weapon.

Well its his game so he made the rules. I played as ELite os he only allows me to use Covie weapons. Especially on Coagulation, still frustrated about our last battle on Monday. I got no sniper while he has one cause it human weapon.
