You may not be the best, but who really wants to be the best if it means you have to sit in a room for hours on end to get there?

My advice to you is to get better and become an average online player. That way you probably will still lose (not as bad though), but have more fun, because its challenging.

I fall into a group called 'the better players' with my gaming friends. I love the fact that there is about 5 people at the same skill level. Its really challenging.

If you ARE the best in your group of friends, then why not handicap yourself. 4 vs 1 is great!

Do you have Halo on the X-Box? or do you have it on the comp? Because this is the forum for the X-Box and I'm under the impression that you have it for the box, but then you said that tricky word, "internet" and yeah, as far as I understand you can only play halo online on the pc. Clearify, So I can help you out, because I have both and I think I have some tips for both..

Don't feel bad cus you can't beat it on the higher difficulty settings. I own all my friends in Halo, but have yet to beat legendary because it's pretty challenging.

You can play halo 1 over the Internet through xbox connect. Go there and play for a few months you will get your butt kicked but you will learn more. You have to expand your skill by playing different types of people because not everyone plays the same way. If you play there all the time when you play halo 2 you will be a top contender if you practice enough.
Be competitive with it don't just get on and go to a room and get crushed then give up and quit you will never learn I’ve played a group that kicked my teams butt 50-9 team slayer and we didn’t quit because we was learning from them. Also you have to have good teamwork if not you will get owned. Via xbox connect or xbox live come (halo 2) great teamwork=dominance! Good Luck

Well, these guys got you covered...But I'mma chim in my two cents.

Basically it takes time...and a lot of paitence, You have to be able to stick with it...I don't have alot of paitence but since I'm such a big fan I was able to endure my anger which was giving me random impulses to destory the game in all sorts of manners when I first started. But as I played more, I got more confident, and I started to do things like rise sensitivity, jump in a group of elites (on legendary) and duel with em, and attempt other things fear could repress you to do.

Playing on legendary is very good for getting better...Anybody who tells you they aren't good enough to beat legendary and they have played halo for a while are probably frustrated with the fact that it's a little difficult or easily frustrated in general.

have some personality when playing, this takes confidence to chunk a plasma grenade at someone from 20 yards out and stick in his face with it. Jumping just enough to peak over a hill and give a guy a head shot with a pistol. Jump around and aim with a sniper rifle. Trust me, it's hard, but when you start gaining confidence you'll learn it's much easier

So, lets recap, have no fear, practice (but not too much you don't want to be a couch potato), and have some personality when playing. Have fun too..it's just a game.

Hey snipa, Just play it on legendary Co-op And leave one controller sittin on the floor, Go and kill those alien bastards best you can, Just keep goin at it and try to keep your gun moving and blasting, KILL KILL KILL!!. When you die its no biggie, youll be respawned back where u were. Good luck.
