Perfect shot? That's the attitude that will get you back-shot. Here is some advice I'll offer as an experienced sniper:
1) Once you fire upon your enemy and they spot you, move to a new sniping spot, regardless of whether you hit or miss.
2) Learn to get a lock while you move and stop for only a second to fire; then get moving again.
3) Lag is a sniper's nightmare.
How about the "sore losers"? They join a game, get killed a couple times and then leave immediately. Some people might have real life affecting this, but sometimes they'll make a comment and just quit.

EDIT: After looking through the posts, I guess I could classify myself as a Lone Wolf. I also use kamikaze tactics before I die. I've been in a situation where I'm being flanked by two players of the enemy team, and my health is down to one bar. No shields, and no hope, I throw a frag at my feet as they close in, taking both of them with me. That is how you make them regret. Mwahaha... *cough*

O yes, the kamakaze. I'm can be one of those at times. Mostly when my team is pissing me off and I have nothing to lose. Just go in with heavey weps (the only time I use them) and blast away! Although that wouldn't really be kamakaze would it? I do throw nades right before I die though.

My -blam!- Point for the day: It's spelled kamikaze. It's Japanese for "Divine Wind". Kami loosely means "God" and kaze means "wind". I'm done now. :P

well i am basicly a preety good sniper and rocket(i dont care if most of you consider that newbish) but i really hate when 4 or more people are just camping in a base waitng for you to respawn there so they can blow your brains out in ctf what i really hate are people who think they can do things on their own without anyones help and finnally i hate and detest those little sons of ****es who like to take all the glory you do by betraying you then stealing the flag or vehicle or weapon you were wreaking havok with sorry if this offends any of you im just stating my opinion

this is a bit off-topic but u think they could fix the short messages (you'll notice it'll get cut off a lot) and add voice with mics. to the game, i really think something like that is addable in a patch, maybe if Gearbox got off their lazy asses and remebered that they created a game called Halo PC not so long ago....

Red Mage, I am most like you. I agree with all your tips. sersiously, i'm probably not as skilled, but i can do some good damage when armed with a sniper and pistol. The one problem with being a sniper is that ammunition is a constant problem...

Reaper, i agree with you whole heartedly, and those two types of people are detailed as the "CTF glory seekers" and the "Backstabbing Murphies" in previous topics.

I for one can be a pretty good spawn killer when armed with frags and an assault rifle. as detailed in an earlier post, you wait for people to spawn at their base, then frag and assault rifle the hell out of 'em.

I will only leave the game either when my roommate needs on (share his comp on the dorm wireless), when i need to go somewhere, or when I know i'm overmatched (gets frustrating), or undermatched (way too easy).

Feeling like I'm quite a bit like Red Mage,
Yout3

PS I seriously agree with you jman

man I HATE it when that happens, lately it's been getting really bad, i guess that has to be some of the bad things about being pretty good. Ya and i've been playing less and less because of it.

Hey there, Yout3, we should game some time. And on the topic of ammunition, I try to gather all 28 rounds before I take position. This is hard to do on stages like Blood Gulch (or any stage for that matter) when the game isn't snipers, however.

Oh, yeah... If you wanna come up with a type of person, here's how I (and i think a lot of other people) do it: First, read the thread, and look at the types. Then proceed to play Halo PC/CE online until you find a type of person who bugs you, and isn't one of the types already mentioned (this is becoming increasingly hard, as most have been posted). Then create a name for them. Post the name and a description. Remember, though, that the more you say noob, the better chance this thread will be locked off, and the more you curse, the better chance you'll be blacklisted/the thread will be blocked off.

Cheers,
Yout3

That would be fun Red Mage. I don't have CE (they never ported it to mac), so it'll have to be on a regular old Halo PC map. As for you hihi, i am getting more and more pissed at you. Please, keep yourself under control.

off topic: what a potty mouth

on topic: Anotherh type of player, the repitive person. They always kill in the same way, and in CTF, will always get the flag in the EXACT same way.

I also do the kamikaze, but in a different way. When in despersation, I stick a plasma nade on my leg and run in.
