You can't kill what's dead.

I don't think the word betrayal should be used anymore at the boot system. It has such a negative connotation, that even if the person betrayed you by accident, you still have this reaction to instantly boot them. Any other word suggestions?

I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.

I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.

Let's not use red ink when correcting children's tests because of the negative connotation. I mean, what if they just don't get it? Red is such a negative color.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite airstrike.

rofl that old debate.

i think it should be changed. When someone on your team kills you, the voice over should say something like 'that's MY sniper rifle!'

Maybe since most team kills ARE purposeful betrayels. I honestly have only been team killed a few times, but I've been betrayed for having a power weapon, trash talking, driving a vehicle, gunning in a vehicle, you name it.

my vote is Betrayel stays the same.

The name's Ian, Game Designer at Whisper Game Studios, very off-and-on Bungie.net visitor and avid Bungie fan overall. Message me if you wish.

Spartan I013 made you deceased and he was on your team.

That any nicer? Would you prefer:

Spartan I013 massacred your face and discraced your name but brutally -blam!- you up while you were on his/her team.

I want the option to boot the player with the most kills. It's a weapon with one shot, that spawns randomly, both location and time. Think of the strategy it would cause! You could be in first place and not be effected (nobody finds it) or you could be in 2nd and get an easy win! It's genius!

Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

How about if you get betrayed you're forced to watch a 3 - 5 second clip of what they were doing when they betrayed you? That way you'll know if it was on accident or not.

For example - the enemy team has a Warthog with 3 people in it. You have a laser. You destroy it and get a triple kill, but unbeknown to you someone on your team started boarding the side opposite to you and you killed him. Him being an idiot, booted you without any hesitation.

I think for the Boot option to appear, the same person must betray you three times, but they do not have to be in a row.

I'd like to thank my fans who made all this possible. OM NOM NOM UNF. In that order.

Lower it to two if it's the same person, 3 if spread across the team. Once, eh, could have been an accident. Twice? Either the betrayer is a danger to everyone around him, or they are really griefing. Threee times? OUT.

I think betrayal is fine. as long as every single betrayal is not a bootable offense, a couple times I have accidentally betrayed some teammates, once on Sandbox I fired a rocket at an enemy getting into a Chopper, only to have my team's Warthog prematurely detonate the rocket by driving between the Chopper and me

I think the word is fine.

However they should change the system.

Im kinda tired of being betrayed 3 times by 2 different guys and not being able to boot them, then i kill one of them once and get booted.

  • 11.01.2009 8:27 PM PDT

I think I've come up with the perfect solution to the whole Betraying/Booting business. After you've been betrayed a message pops up that looks a bit like this:


You have been BETRAYED

Sucks to be you, doesn't it?

Press B: If it was an accident.
Press X: To do this.


If X is pressed the player is out of the game until they are finished with their punishment. Then they will repspawn.

way too harsh, people would rather have their ranks reset than have your idea. Just imagine watching that on a big TV screen...the horror...the horror...

Serves those Teamkillers right. How about this? It's still pretty harsh, but there has to be some form of punishment,

Why So Serious?

I don;t think there is anything wrong with the word "betrayl", but there is one thing i would like to see fixed related to this topic: The Boot System.
