I donj't understand why people say that using a plasma pistol bolt to take out shields then popping the enemy in the head with a BAttle Rifle is cheap. Its a perfectly good startegy. The only reason people get so uppity about is because they're a bunch of soar loosers. SUCK IT UP ITS A GOD DAMN GAME!

Stop complaining about radrar! Very few people actualy use the crouch walk tactic because people don't usualy even use their radar. Trust me, I' once followed any enemy for about 2 minuts before he actualy realized that I was right behind him. And I was running!

Hey frankie why did you guys put a gametype CTF COV on matchamaking, and to top that off why in the hell is it on BURIAL MOUNDS?!?!?!? WERE YOU GUYS DRUNK WHEN YOU DID THAT!?!?!?! jeez man, its impossible to get a flag, because they grab wraith, grab rockets, then a ghosts rushes over and grabs Beam Rifle, and they have all the stuff and all you have is a SMG and a Battle Rifle? thats just plain stupid...

man i still think the br and plasma pistle combo should be almost imposible to get because really only noobs or crapy players use them and they are not a good strategy wepon combo its almost imposible to dodge a close range plasma pistle shot and then all u need to do is shoot them once whats the fun in doingthat and some a holes that use that combo if it fails to work they just start throughing every grenade they have at u and that is bull s h i t and any one that uses that combo should do every one else a favor go into your bathroom right now and go shove a razor up your ass right now and just like go die a very painful death or something its like this that combo is the same as only throughing grenades in a sword match

I stopped playing ranked after the update. Though I enjoy more powerful grenades as I am quite the "Nade Whore" <rolls eyes because im apparently the only player who has access to grenades on the map> the rest of matchmaking is screwed up. All I do now is play training but only melee and grenade without shooting. The funny thing is, if every mistake on Halo 2 was corrected, we'd have Halo 1 on xbox live... which would be awesome. Release THAT bungie. Release THAT.

Also, I'd like to add that Halo is a game, and unlike real games (ie: baseball, football, hockey, etc) you can't get hurt playing them, so there's no risk and no reason to brag about anything really at all. Play the game, don't talk trash, just have fun. Calling someone a "noob" just sounds nerdy, and using terms like "owned" and "raped" just sounds like you finally won a game. If you really want to make someone think, just beat them and be nice about it.

My friends and I usually get on and dick around like i mentioned by not shooting and stuff, trying to get someone to talk mess after the game which makes us laugh. (Imagine if someone on the other team shot 5000 without getting a kill, obviously not trying since it's TRAINING) Then they say something really threatening and scary like "lets go 2 on 2 right now, noob" which after we stop crying from being yelled at through a tv, we play them and win. THEN they try being all nice, and we laugh at that too. Halo's a funny game, it's like insulting a nerd's palm-pilot and seeing how mad he gets. Just be cool from the start, even if that means smokin a bowl. (or as we'll call now, "2percent'in it.")

Hey Frankie. Im sure almost everyone knows about Halo 3 by now, i just want some info. I mean you cant deny it any longer because Bill Gates himself said it in TIME Magazine. Just tell us what the plan is for it. And more than "its coming out in Spring". Like how about finishing up on that cliffhanger that was "intentional" and gameplay. That sort of thing. Thanks a lot Frankie!
PS: What if Sony surprises everyone and comes out with the PS3 this Christmas? Will you be ready?

We'll first of all like I said Its just a game so suck it up. Second, the plasma pistol was created to mainly take away enemy shields quickly, so whats the point in whinning about it when you have a perfectly good weapon at your disposle. You might as well whine about how you can kill people with one or two shots from a sniper rifle or how shotguns can be used to get on hit kills by camping. Which is also a good stratagy.

i'm in full agreance with Weasy there. Although all those tricks are cheap at times, it does take some skill for some of them. Now i hate nothing more on Halo 2 is when a person owns the whole game by using the Br/Pp trick. But whenever i use it, i understand how the users feel because for some reason it feels good to whip out the battle rifle and shoot that guy in the head in like half a second. But it's only cheap if the person is freakin awsome with it. I can actually go either way on this argument.

well icould say that the sniper and shotgun take alittle skill to use unlike that combo and i dont really care about your rank its simple just dont use that combo because people dont approve of cheap kills and u wont get any where if u use it i could under stand using it agenst maby a oversheild guy that has a sword but other wise that combo should be used less

I honestly really dont know why everyone is b#tchin about the br/pp combo, why dont you all complain about somethin more serious, like the rocket launcher. i mean, you are complaining about a clever combo and not one complaint about the launcher. it kills faster than the br/pp combo. like 10 times faster, because the overcharge bolt flies at almost the same speed as the rocket does, but when the bolt hits your target, it doesnt kill them instantly, but the launcher does in 1 hit( unless your rocket hit very off and didnt kill instantly or the overshield was probably equipped by your target, but that hardly ever happens!) so why doesnt everyone complain about somthin else stronger like the shotgun,sniper rifle,or the rocket launcher???

theres nothing wrong with the rocket launcher only bad thing is if someone uses it the whole round but its not hard killing someone that has the rocets and if u keep on dying well your an idiot the shogun is close range so if u dont want to die from it dont get near it kill them from a safe distance killing a sniper isnt hard just catch them on their blind side and kill them but br/pp combo is bull because the bullet homes and take s the shield and then the battle rifle kills them thats just cheap and theirs almost no exscape from the pp bullet and the people just start throughing grenades at u and thats so cheap

i dont think so. if the enemy is very expirienced with one-shot-kill weapons, then you wouldnt be an idiot, so it wouldnt be your fault.

if your worried about getting killed by a one shot kill gun then get that gun before them and use it or just kill the person with the good wepon and get someone else to use it and its not hard avoiding them just hide until u have a chance to kill them take it from me im my clans sniper its not hard killing someone that has a good wepon and if u really cant kill that person get a better wepon and fill them with led

Bungie I have one question and one question alone. Do you incredibly talented, extraordinarily creative, insanely sick dudes have any ideas for Halo 3, which the big guy himself confirmed would release in the second wave, for the Xbox 360?

although i still dont know why someone would complain about b the br/pp combo? someone porbably came up with a really smart plan like that and decided to use it. its kind of like experimenting, like maybe a pp/rocket launcher combo(overcharge plasma pistol, fire it,then fire a rocket like a couple seconds after the pistol fired.do in very quick succesion. it will increase your chances of killing your target dramaticly)heck, i bet everyone of you would have at least experimented at least ONCE to find the perfect combo, like needler/plasma pistol combo(fire off a LOT of needles,then quickly switch to plasma pistol,overcharge it, then let fly with it. the bolt will hopefully speed by the needles and hit the enemy shields, bringing shields down, then target becomes a purple explosive pin cushion. your enemy will surely die!) you all might find a good combo and use it yourselves. go on! its not cheating when your finding your own combo! heck, you could probably RULE matchmade games if you get the weapons you found very powerful and unlikely. you can find out best weapon combos on custom made games by yourself. you might find the combo you like and try on matchmade games.(dont try sentinel beam. it never shows up in matchmade games.only on default ;)

trust me about this! if you dont like combos, then you are going to have an extremly hard time dominating games( if you dont duel wield, i am surprised you are actually winning on this)
