It Ain't Easy Bein Skeezy

To me a entire team sitting in one corner of a map while 3 of them protect the sniper isn't exactly showing any skill. It happens almost every game I play on Colossus now without any weapon changes so it's only going to get worse when things are updated (if it's even considered an update .... personally I see it as a downgrade if anything). For all you that can only win a game by sniping, obviously you'd be in favor of taking out the plasma/battle rifle combo. I think the actual change should include taking out the sniper rifle as well .... then the playing field will truly be even. I've been in Slayer matches that have done a 10-15 kill turnaround by eliminating the b.s. sniping. If the combo goes, so should the sniper rifle.

I live in Fl where comcast is and there is no problem with connections on comcast no lag and you are liars!

I will let you and no lag have the first words.

I dont care if bungie takes out the pbr combo or keeps it.

Pbr is for noobs I can beat anyone that tries to use that combo.

If they take out the radar they have to take out that combo.

Usually I would see somebody on the radar jump out the back window in ascension they would come up the base then id come behind em and smack em in an instant kill.

Then I would go back to sniping like always. My smg and a grenade takes out that combo everytime so It doesnt matter for me. with the pbr out of the way and radar out of the way it will be much more balanced on gameplay.

That way if they didnt take pbr out but took the radar out it would be chaos and certain victory for the people that use pbr.

I dont use it because its too easy to kill people with it and it gets boring after a while of using it all the time.

So imagine this radar is taken out pbr is left in.

Someone with pbr enabled comes up behind someone starts shooting before the person has a chance to grenade or turn around he dies.

Basically the person will have no chance of survival with that combo in and the radar out.

So with radar out the pbr combo must be taken out!

The only thing I dont like bungie doing maybe it was just a rumor Ill have to teset the game sometime is lessening the pistols damage.

But, since they are taking the pbr out. That will balance things much better.

Before the pistol combo could beat the pbr now it cant!

But thanks to bungie removing that combo that will not matter anymore.

You people that dont want bungie to remove it are people that dont know how to use anyting else!

If you dont like being sniped then get better and beat the snipers. Im a good sniper and good at taking out snipers without a sniper. All you need is a grenade and any other weapon to take those people out.

At different times dual wielding weapons is nice to do too.

Using one combo all the time and never doing anything else is just boring!!!!!!!!!!!! and really cheasy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So if you cant handle the pbr being taken out you are the noobs.

Sniping takes real skill and you should get better and stop dissing the people that snipes because if they are that good at sniping they are just as good as taking you down.

btw my turning speed is on 10!

Pretty much i read like 7 1/2 pages and didnt want to read nemore every1 kept repeating.... br/pp shouldnt be taken out cuz noobs... they should make it so the pp doesnt follow as much cuz sometimes its like 90 degree turns and thats wack.... and the pp/br isnt hard to defeat cuz dodge the pp by going behind a rock/wall (inless it does that 90 degree thing >_< but they shouldnt take nething way cuz noobs the new maps, awsome, maken it mlg on some maps, awsome, and ppl complaining about reseting the stats, its going to be eaiser to gain ranks so ppl can actualy get to 50 and like they said like 90k times its just for same skill yea i like sayen im a 17 (kinda sucks but still) oh and the last auto update with nades awsome, the sudden death taken out umm ok i guesse but maybe there should be just a time limit on it and doesnt reset everytime they re contest the bomb/flag bungie keep this shyt up just some update umm well shouldnt do the pistol should have more damage just by a bit cuz yea it was true it was overpowerd but now u made it suck but i still use plasma rifle pistol sometimes but mainly my sniper br ^_^

PS. ne1 that says the no radar sucks cuz campers will have even more advantage not true they cant see u coming behind them or nething if they camp , so pretty much u dont have to crouch everywhere to search for them,and for people that are woundering bout the hole banning thing for suicides and betrayles there not going to ban u for haven 1 or 2 it'll proly be like 5 and see the time between them and what games u did it in and everything like that. bungie isnt stupid so dont worry bout that

PSS. i forgot another reason u shouldnt take out PP is some ppl actualy use it close range since the melee hurts now, i use the "combo" but not actualy use it i take the PP and melee close range and br long

Hey who the Hell are you. Bungie acted on the whims and wishes of good players who wanted to get rid of this stupid easy kill 'noob combo' or 'pbr' as you refer to it. Only noobs or people generally crap like you use this and its about time it was removed. So leave bungie alone and make ur own custom game on Halo 2 called pbr and play with all ur friend (not a typo).
Oh and how can bungie suck on ur nuts if u dont have any??

OK I have something to complain about that has been happening to me A LOT since the new patch has come out... for some reason when a fight gets going, I am able to see their back but they are able to assassinate me for some odd reason... is there any way to fix this crappy glitch because it is starting to make me mad...
Thanks for you help

Read the update... the radar is only being taken out of Head to Head! nuff said!

And Yes we all get the idea, the PBR combo sucks and is for noobs so can we all just shut the hell up about it now! And anyone who argues about keeping the PBR combo must have no skill at all... why else would you want to keep the only combo that even a monkey could kill with? consider yourself a monkey if you disagree.
As a matter of fact, in a game type where everyone had a PBR combo i bet the noobs who depend on the combo in matchmaking would get owned by the players with actual skill.

As for the sniper and the three henchmen on colossus, if your team actually comunicates and works as a team its pretty easy to take the sniper out... im not giving any tips because i dont want people forming a counter counter for my counter...(smart people should be able to figure it out themselves)

I guess ill take this opertunity to further my rant at Bungie... yes you should take the glitches out of the game, and get rid of cheaters and time wasters to some extent, but please quit sucking the fun out of the game, a clean fight is one thing but theres no need to steralise the whole game!!!

yep, i am infavor of ditching that snipe, it decides to quickly who has won the game, and some noobs take this thought, and quit immediately after they lose it.

No dont ditch it and dont get a 2nd 1 in it its fine just change the spawn points and i think there doin that... its easy to get the sniper roll 4 deep with br's and if your team has skill there ya go ^_^

oh question for bungie already no the awsner but still.. if your changing weapons on slayer to human does that mean we have to use the human sniper on closses? cuz i like beam on closses.. fits it well

oh and i just talked to my boi and he said another idea for the combo is wait till its done over heaten to change weapons u can still melee but u gotta wait to switch to the br

Leave the Auto Update alone you bunch of cockbiting -blam!-tards. First of all Halo 2 sucks balls now. I'm close to breaking it. They shouldnt of tampered with the -blam!-en Weapons. Secondly he is correct about the whol Battle Rifle/Plasma Pistol Combo. To me that combo was an extention to Dual Weilding. Yes it gets frustrating. But if you cannot beat that combo you're a complete and utter n00b. I used to go into Head to Head matches and end up on Lockout, for example. My opponent would pick up the sword. Hrmmm...what to do? Ah simple answer, PP/BR. Now no one likes a sword whore but there are alot out there. Then if my opponent used the BR/PP he might get a kill or too. However I WAS (Now thanks to the Auto-Update I cant even do that) used to whip him with the SMG/Magnam combo. Everyone was happy before the Auto Update (Discluding the Standbying) but now every (former) talented player sucks. All thanks to the Auto-Update.
Now one more thing, with the Auto Update....IT SUCKS!!!!
Now all a n00b has to do is Spawn, use half (Not even) of his clip then run up and whack you're face. No matter what gun you have even a rocket launcher you're -blam!-. Hrmmm this game is like the Ultimate Shoot 'em Up Simulator (NOT)

yea almost every1 was happy without the auto update at first i hated it but now i like it alot sept the weapons damage was down graded a little but w/e i love br so no biggie but yea it is kinda wack that some1 can spawn up with a smg and melee u without usen a half clip but since he just spawned up with just a smg u should have a better weapon(s) and besides if he spawns up u have the advantage of throwen a nade and sprayen him with the smg or 1 shot with the br so dont get mad just cuz u dont "think" not tryen to be a dick but its true all there tryen todo is make the game more balanced so its more fair

Ok Darkjedi, thats my point you say "...yea it is kinda wack that some1 can spawn up with a smg and melee u without usen a half clip but since he just spawned up with just a smg u should have a better weapon(s)..." My point is you'll still get ass raped regardless if you have a better weapon or combo. It's -blam!-en stupid.
