The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

So let's hear 'em guys.

Mine:

Double melee (melee, thrown grenade, melee)
Backpack reload (press R twice, switch weapon, switch back)
sticky launching weapons to get them closer to you
instant invisibility (shoot your AR or shotgun right after you pick it up)

moving a 3rd weapon down the map by constantly exchanging two weapons (great for carrying both fuel rod and rockets plus a pistol)

The 3SK (best kill in any FPS)


your turn

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Stay either very far from heavy weapons users to snipe them out, or get really close and try to get them to commit suicide with a close-range shot.

Weave in and out of cover until your opponent is forced to reload, then move in for the kill.

Something smells fishy...

instant invisibility (shoot your AR or shotgun right after you pick it up)

Wow! I never knew one could do that in Halo 1 PC!

It's a key move for sure, especially on Blood Gulch.

Also, a good technique: never let your opponent know you have a flame thrower until they get way too close, then BBQ time!

I search tirelessly for the secrets of the one known as the webmaster and for ling-ling's head.

I like mowing down people with the AR or melting their shields with the plasma rifle but it is always fun to BBQ them with the flamthrower. The best technique I like to use is the simple but effective, warthog mowdown <it never gets old>

It does get old if you're on the receiving end. :P

And yeah, never underestimate the power of plasma. Overcharged plasma pistol on a full hog does wonders when your team is attacking it.

I hate getting run over by the hogs, but it is a nice challenge to try to defeat them or out think the driver. When you see it coming, best to stand still and not move until the driver has committed to a path, then move out of the way. It's always funny though when drivers are determined to run you down and just sit there doing doughnuts while you strafe out of the way.
Sometimes it's fun to drive a hog towards someone and then jump out and fight. If you are lucky the hog runs him over, and if not you can battle it out like men.
