Wow dude .. you really are afraid .. sigh .. sometimes I just can't get through to people. And all you do is try and do this "I'm so much better than you because I don't go to tournaments, but I'm cool enouch to go post on the bungie forums." Either be into Halo fully or get out, and don't say people suck when you aren't even willing to play me.

Uhh, you're posting in a Halo forums .. and what does "knowing when someone is trieing to help you" have to do about Halo at all? You obviously aren't playing the same Halo as I am.

Also if you're gonna play CTF you guys probably need to get some practice in playing on smaller maps that require actual skill and not driving ability, you can't enter vehicles with the flag in Halo 2.

That is an incorrect statement. You can enter vehicles with the flag, but you cannot drive with the flag. This is to promote team play.

Of course BG is not fun over XBC. Anything less than 10 players on BG is not fun and Sidewinder need even more players. Also using vehicles for most gametypes other than CTF is also not as much fun.

Now Zanizbar is the same size as BG. What makes it more fun to play? The areas are section off into smaller battle areas. Bungie specifically designed that map to concentrate the fighting in the smaller courtyard areas. I trust that all maps will be created like this, the larger areas being broken up into seperate smaller fighting areas. Then throughout the game the battle will flow from one area to another.

I hope this is the same case, I don't mind having big maps like BG in Halo 2 .. I just hope they have still have good small maps aswell .. I know there are a lot of people who like BG and that's fine. But I want to see smaller maps aswell. If anyone knows where a picture of 'Lockout' can be found, I'd really like to see it.

Btw .. you can drive with the flag. Are you people on PCP or something?

I just cant wait for halo 2 and X-Live when most these people here will kick your arse. Now im not being big headed. I'm not brilliant at Halo, i haven't completed it on Legendary all the way through, but i've been here longer than you and i know that little -blam!-s like you just get torn to pieces coz you come in thinking your brilliant and all and your so big headed, and you claime youve been to tournaments. Well you wait then you die on X-Live. I'm not brilliant. im a fan, i do Lan 3 times a Month on average, im 5th best out my group of 12 <before you cuss the group, im gd at Mp, and dont own the game so cant do single player> and yes iv been to Uk tournaments and yes i did come 3rd from bottom but i had a good time. also i had a good time here on the forumns when im on. and little -blam!-s like you need to learn that arrogance like above is just gonna get laughed at when you go and pick on someone like Char thinking your the best here, and then ho woops you dicked on @ss 50-0 like he will most people. Now grow up!

I will play anyone .. if no one is willing to challenge me then I will keep talking about how good I am, until someone plays me and learns something .. and if you're from Europe, you have no chance in American Halo. We've seen European play, through vids, it's really nothing.

I'm pretty good at halo. I've only had about 2 tournies (but I came in 1st in both. I live in Ohio, and my parents ARE NOT going to take me to a tourny in another city/state) but, I have to say I like both big and small maps. (Blood Gulch is a little... cheap... Unless snipers are off. One of my friends can only snipe. BG is the home of the snipers, 'cuz they can just pick up the sniper and they already can kill anyone on the opposite side) I like what bungie is doing. It isn't open field large maps (BG will probably be incorporated still; its a fan favorite!) it's going to be sections in a map! (snipers going to have to make an effort to shoot somebody know. They're going to have to go and fight their way to get to a good position to snipe) I like that Idea. They can't camp the whole game either anymore because of all the different obstacles people can hide under/beside/etc. Snipers are going to have to watch their backs now... heh heh.

Ohio is a good Halo state .. OGRES and OpN are from there. So is eCo. But they're not even in OGRES league.

But Americans are the best .. we've seen vids of Europeans like .. PDT, Polish dream team I think .. they suck .. but atleast it's picking up in europe that BG is not cool. A guy from Poland came to AGP (A tournament I went to) he was amazed by how good we are .. it was odd, what a loser he spent plane tickets and hotel just to play Halo .. anyways .. BG sucks no matter what gametype you play .. I play realistic games where both sides have a shot.

No, I don't think I"m the best, But I do know who the best is atleast.

Blood Gultch sucks! All it's about it is pistol sniping and powerup whoring with rocket launchers and tanks if your that stupid. Thank god zanzibar actually requires skill to play unlike BG. Sidewinder is much better than BG it has strategy and multiple tatics can win you a victory. I dont want a large map that I can snipe people all the way acrossed the map! I want something more from my maps than two generic bases and a open field in between. But that's just me also only one can be the best it's unlikely any of us are the best I would mearly call myself a good halo player not the best but capable of noobie stomping.
