bah

What was your sweetest moment of revenge in Halo? Not the best kill, or your moment of glory, but the sweetest revenge you've gotten on someone. Like taking out the tank that was harassing you by using the AR, or whacking the shotgun spawn killer in the back, or whacking in the back someone who just killed you and they were... disrespecting your corpse.

For me, it was at a Halo tournament. The enemy team had two guy on our base with shotguns, and they were spawn killing, and they were mouthing off too. For some reason, we kept swapning on top of our base and never on the ground, so we were getting screwed pretty badly. We finally respwaned on the ground, and killed those SOBs. Moment of revenge? Hardly. I proptly got into a ghost and rode it all the way to their base, took it right up the ramp, and went on a running riot running them over for 2 minutes, all the time letting them know just how fun it was killing them. It took the combined effort of them all to take me out, but it was fun as hell, and worth the death.

My best revenge was yesterday. I was on a server with a jackass named deaphtone. we where playing on sidewinder and he tk's me out of the blue. He then does it again and again and again. And while i respawned he tk's everyone else. so I finaly get sick of it and hit him in the back if the head when he wasnt looking. I then do it again,and after witch he starts threating me, i tell him i like to see you try and leave the server. I then went to my profiles and changed my name, went back in and did it again. He figures out it was me ond says on i-quote " I wish I could see you in real life s I could kill you", then he quit. I felt justice was served.

My favorite moment of vengence had to be when we were playing a team slayer game on sidewinder.
The other guys had set up a sniping fortress in the top of their base. They had FIVE guys all huddled in a line sniping anything, and everything, that moved. We had tried the tanks, to no avail, for they would all fire at the same time, just an instant before there was an opportunity to aim, so they were sitting in easy sniping range. The Rockets didn't work because of their poor speed, plus, the moment you could be seen there would be two or three white lines converging on you. They kept on racking up kills every time we tried to get to them, and they had two guys downstairs covering the entrance.
Then, my freind ran in from the tunnels with an over-shield, and by the time they killed him, they had depleted their ammo, so they went upstairs. They didn't notice the cloaked guy run after them and throw up a few greandes.
Four grenades. seven kills. Instant Kill-tacular. It was amazing. we still lost, but that moment was worth it.

My number one moment was one game where I was playing team slayer with my girlfriend's brothers. One of these brothers has always bested me and has always had a healthy competition going with his younger brother. Well this time I was on the younger brother's team and I planted myself on the ridge behind our base on Blood Gulch with a sniper rifle ( which I'm not known to be too good with) and the older brother was in a fire fight with my team mate. That is until I nailed him in the head with a shot from the sniper rifle. After some cursing he respawned in the same area and started the battle with his younger brother again and BAM! I nail him again!. This happened about 6 or 7 times and I got my first killing spree. It all ended as it should have with a rocket to my face from the oldest brother (the other team mate). Victory was mine for the first and so far, the last time.

Some complete bandit was driving around in a warthog for aaaaaaages killing anyone who respawned at that base. with 16 players respawning anytime, it hapens quite a lotand he got me loads of times - way too much for comfort in fact. My whole room respawned at the other base and we plotted his death with... 4 ghosts (the other two were already there). We massacred him, again and again cos he kept respawnin at the same place :D

Revenge is a dish best served with needles.

We were playing a TS game of 4v4 at Battle Creek on XBC. This one player on the other team was being a real rocket whore, so much so, that he was annoying our rocket whore. I had tired of this and being that I wasn't doing that much damage in the first place, I grabbed the needler and headed up to the rocket. A massive firefight was going on in front and on top of the one of the bases, facing away from the rocket, and the player I speak of was being slick and firing on my teammates while jumping for the rockets....and hearing a needler clip unload right behind him. Nothin' says lovin' like a back full of needles! This guy blew sky high, I grabbed the rocket and we owned the game the rest of the time.

My best revenge wasn't by me, it was more of a good justice. I was at a LAN party and my friend was camping in a spot on the map with a shotgun where he was very, very hard to kill. We had no radar so whenever anyone walked past there he smoked us. Our whole team was getting pissed until finally, the biggest n00b out of us all who had only even discovered halo when we invited him over accidently killed the camping SOB. Then we all laughed and laughed at him for the rest of the night

Sweet! I love all of these! My favorite has to be MoDaConQuErOr's so far because it involves using someone's tactics against them. The best revenge has to be the kind where you use their tactics against them.

I'm going to have to copy some of these and give them a permanent home somewhere. Just edit your post and tell me if you'd mind or not. It would be like a database, with your post and name. I've been thinking about making a chapter, but I might wait until the new 7th column goes up.

I'm in gulch in a CTF to 3 cap's and its literaly neck in neck, no team was better than the other. The game had probably went on for 45 minutes. So its near hopeless because they have two hogs leaving are bases with gunner's so we havent a clue wich one has the flag. We make the Wrong guess and Blue team scores so now its 2 to 2. So after 7 minutes of b loody conflict holding bases we are eventualy given 2 hog's at our base. We take the hogs and attempt to do the same thing, we took a lap around oposite sides of the base thus in an attempt to throw them off, and we begin to return to base. We forgot one thing though, THE BLUE FLAG! We turn around to find the whole blue ARMADA after us thinking we have it anyway! It was hillarious, we take'em down and start to invade there base again. Then we hear "red team has the flag!" one of our guys was on foot and had gotten it after they left base going after our unintentional decoy. Since blue had some spawn time it was a cake walk. "Red team score! Game, over."

Rip Saw, I dont mind. I enjoy sharing strategy with our Halo Brotheren.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Hmmmmm.... I don't think I've ever gone for the whole "revenge" thing... I'm not a vengeful person. I just do what needs to be done.

I guess, if anything, it was getting to see my plasma grenade blow up on someone on my screen (that killed me) without them knowing I had gotten a plasma grenade off at the last minute. I watched it happen before I respawned...

But to answer the question in the topic's title (which, I guess, you didn't really ask), revenge is a dish best served as hot as your victim's blood. }>-) Hehehehehehe.

Revenge in-game is fun... in real life, however, I think its pointless. What does it accomplish in the long-run?

I disagree, revenge is in I-quote from the movie Man On Fire " Revenge is a dish best served cold". Cold blood that is

I agree with you Shai. I have never gone on a revenge assault before either. I just kill anyone I see I really do not care who I kill, unless I see someone who is winning and he needs to be taken out.

Well, to understand my sweetest moment, one must first understand my crew. There is one person I play with that used to pistol whip people's bodies after they were dead... Every time. And he would trash talk as he did it.

Well, one time on, um, I think it was Derelect, I he kept on killing me and pistol whiping my body. I got mad. Like steaming, adrenaline pumping, vein pulsing mad. So I started ignoring the other players and targeted him specifically... I grabbed a Shotty and a Pistol and I hunted him down. First I killed him, them I shot him about 5 times with the Shotty. He laughted and told me I was wasting ammo, so I said "You know, you're right." and I switched to the Pistol and started beating his body. He screamed "THAT'S MY MOVE!" and started telling me I was a stupid, horrible at Halo, and a whole list of other unkind things.

I repeated this over and over. I killed him, beat him, then did it again. He screamed some more and got pissed at his team for not covering him...

Before I started the Pistol beatings, we were 5-20. They were winning. We ended the game at 50-31. My team won.

mine was when we had this guy who went around humping everyone after someone died, he barely killed ne1, just followed his teammates around and humping there kills, so one time when i died, i let off a gernade right b4 my death (plasma) and this idiot must not have seen it cause he started to hump me, the gernade killed him as u may have guessed, then i respawned right after his death, right next to his body, so i got some humpage in before i went off

i don't know that i'd call it revenge so much as...well, bad karma. you see, it was at a LAN party. we were playing CTF in BG 5 on 5, 5 caps. the game was a stalemate at 4 - 4, and had been going on for over an hour. one of the guys on my team went haywire and started team killing. we pleaded with him to continue the game, as it was actually quite intense because the teams were so evenly matched. unfortunately he continued his TK rampage. so, the rest of us wasted him whenever we caught a glimpse of him. someone eventually teabagged him, causing him to explode into a fit of laughter (he'd never seen it done before). during his little fit of laughter, he kicked a half full bottle of beer over, spilling its contents all over and inside of the xbox. correction, all over and inside his xbox. the screen went blue as "noodle," during its last moments of life, whirred, sputtered, smoked a little, and then died. let this be a lesson to all team killing kcuf-tards. and let it also be a lesson that beer + xbox = death

thats awesome! karma like a mo-fo! I think my best moment of revenge was one time in slayer on hang em high. One guy was camping with a sniper rifle to the left of the blue base, so he kept killing me and i had enough so i got some plasma grenades and stuck two on him from directly behind, this is the guy who i started the thread about on screen cheating. he wasnt then, cause he got a double dose of death!

bah

The Xbox can survive a gun shot, a fall down stairs, and having a hippo stand on it,(unconfirmed) but like all electronics, it succumbs to liquid. Pity.

Well, probably the best moment of revenge I have ever had in Halo would be in 'Blood Glutch' during a multiplayer with about four people. I was winning the match on large part because I was tucked away atop a ledge shooting people with the sniper rifle. I let the other three go at eachother while I took a kill every now and then. After about ten minutes of this they all chose to band together and flush me out as if I were a member of the Vietcong.

So, they all went on a killing spree for about 10 minutes or poor old me, until I managed to get into a warthog while they went back to killing eachother. I then entered it and proceeded to run over people for the last 10 minutes, in a very wonderful display of power. I lost the match overall, but it was still pretty sweet.
