Subject: Leading My Shots! I Finally Got It!

Pioneer and Enthusiast for Halo 3.

NOTE: This thread is some-what useless.

So today I went into the 24/7 CTF Server. Obviously you had the idiots who couldn't get a kill without a vehicle. Then you had a clan who just did not know how to use the pistol AT ALL. I was just minding my own business, when all the sudden someone was mid-range, and he was just like me. He traveled on foot, never cared to use any vehicle, constantly was using the pistol; trying to perfect the leading shot lag.

So here we are, looking at eachother. We began to do a 1 v 1 right there in the middle of the map with nothing but our pistols. We we're both strafing. I was getting shots on him. I could hear the sound, and I could see his shields go up. I was ACTUALLY leading my shots. Perfectly...almost.

It has taken me a very long time to learn how to do this with sweet perfection. I'm getting really good at this game, and my K/D will go up.

Anyone else can leave a comment :)

Sometimes I get pretty sweet kills, but perfecting the shot leading will take time...

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.

Great job, Retro. I can only lead my shots when a player moves straight. I still have no idea how to hit a strafing target. If you know how, please, by all means let it be known!

just lead a bit less and shoot slow. slow shooting really helps. sometimes it's almost like i see them where they really are, even though i still lead of course, but i'm not leading in my head. those games just feel different, kind of disconnected and fuzzy. those are my "bot" games, they don't really happen often any more. O.o... but really, can't stress enough the slow shooting part.

I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

It takes a while to get used to, but once you get it down, leading your shots become natural and you become a Halo pro. :D

Hey your that guy that hates banshees, I play halo 3 but at school I play a 16 player Halo CE LAN and it's the best LAN game ever on death island with all the banshees, Tanks and ghosts. The vehicles make the game fun and challenging.

I switch between Halo CE and Halo 2 Vista and it gets annoying because in CE you gotta lead pretty good, in Vista it's like direct hit lol.
