The Universe demands to be noticed, to be seen, and dutifully noted.

What use all those incredible firework dimensions if no eye fixes and reflects, no brain takes notes, no heart moves with passion at the display?

NASA answers the silent cry of the Cosmos for recognition.

NASA is the witness and we fellow witnesses to the endless deeps.

Even better it can hit the rocket back at the person firing it ( if they stand still)

Wow. A ton of replies. Thanks again.

Okay, here are the ideas that we are thinking of testing so far:
- Can a sniper bullet ricochet more than one time?
- Is an AR more powerful than a BR at a set distance when you're firing the AR in short, controlled bursts?
- Does crouching with a BR tighten bullet spread?
- Can you stick a katana?
- Can Mendicant Bias kill you on Epitaph?
- What happens when you stick a weapon and they change it?
- Do Elites jump slightly higher than spartans?
- Can you be stuck on your weapon, drop it, run away, and survive?
- Can you snipe a rocket?
- Can you melee back a grenade?
- Do Elites jump slightly higher than Spartans?
- Can you 4-shot an Elite?
- Does the ghandi hop help in getting away?
- Can a gravity hammer really bat away a rocket?

Can the Spartan Lazer penetrate more than 8 objects or is eight people or objects the maximum?
-Can the Ar flip a warthog like the Br?
-Is grenade jumping even possible?
-Can a bad host actually affect all gameplay or certain idividuals, and are they positive or negative?
-Is the killionaire headshot even possible?
-Is sticking someone with a frag grenade possible?
-Does the E.V.A helmet actually relflect more light than other helmets( easier to spot?)?

You want gaming ladders without out the Hyper-Competitive -blam-Tards?? Check here:

Prove which we apons are stronger

BR vs Carbine
Sniper vs Beam Rilfe
AR vs Spiker
SMG vs AR

This can be done by setting up some pallets on weapon holders and firing a set amount. Then depending on the # of pallets broken = power.

Hope that helps.

"the joke is in your hand"

you can snipe rockets, pick up a rocket launcher and a sniper, shoot a rocket and you can snipe it by aiming at the orangey yellow part

- Sense of humour trumps common sense everytime.

Under what circumstances is it possible to reflect/ricochet a Spartan Laser shot.

If you have a weapon that is stuck, and you swap it out for another one (as in, drop the stuck weapon) you will survive, as long as you get away from the dropped, stuck weapon.

Thank you Brute Shot on Construct. (How I found this out)

can you actually 4 shot an elite

When you stick a vehicle does location matter? (I'm getting sick of not destroying warthogs with a sticky.)

I've done BR vs Carbine and they are equally powerful.
BR takes four shots to the head to kill someone, Carbine takes eight.
The Carbine shoots twice as fast so their power is equal.

Elites are better than spartans? Find out today, on MythBusterers: Halo Edition.

Are elites worse drivers than spartans, as digital ph33r stated.

  • 08.30.2008 9:06 AM PDT

-K

Is it really impossible to get a headshot on an Elite from behind?

  • 08.30.2008 9:30 AM PDT

Once again. Great suggestions. Look for the first episode in the coming week.

We are hoping to make this a series. So keep the suggestions coming. What myth do you want busted?

Also, these videos will be concise (no longer than 5 minutes) and we will try to tackle 5-10 myths each episode.

Thanks again guys.

The halo community is great!

  • 08.30.2008 10:53 AM PDT

Oh, one more thing.

Episode 2 is going to be a Vehicle Special.

So let's here all of your vehicle myths.

i.e. Does a warthog drive slower when the turret is being fired?

Is it possible to do a warthog jump? If you don't know what that is, you haven't been playing very long.
