I am part of Forerunner Conflict, it is a war sim clan that has been going on for 5 years, if you would like to join or learn more about it feel free to message me

aim to the left of the head, it seems to recognise shots better or at least for me

I find that if you're trying to get someone with the BR, you should get your first 3 shots on the body, then go for the head. I tend to use a sweeping motion upward toward wherever they're moving.

Your mind is in the gutter.

erm, you have 3 options:
1. good grenade plus 1 headshot=kill
2. All shots in the head=kill
3. Burst in the body and when he is 1 burst left, jump so your aim will be in the head.

Condoms.

At least I'm going into battle protected. Haha


Yea, the last thing you want is are some elites strapped your your back while a grunt massages your nuts unprotected.

If you zoom in, there is actually a little thing on the left of the reticule that shows how much to lead shots.

  • 08.18.2010 6:19 PM PDT

Is there really? I'll have to look for that.

  • 08.18.2010 6:20 PM PDT

If they attempt to get within beatdown range with an AR, back up and continue shooting. If they can't beat you down, you should be able to kill them first.

You 2 need to take it to the Guardian battle fields and duke this out. :)

I've been trying to get my BR better recently.. I like

#2 on the above list is dependent on the playlist you're playing under (MLG is 4 shots while Social is 5 to the head I believe). So if you're trying to practice your BR- I would suggest going into Social and trying to sink all of your shots into the opponents head(s) for a bit (note how you like it, and then just do it to get your Aiming down) Then I would maybe practice #3 a little and see which one you like more, which feels more natural for you. I've made a target practice level which helps to understand leading your br shots and just for general aiming practice.
(check fileshare 'target practice')

hope this helps?

Nah man. Guardian is my wolf's bane.

I always recommend grenading by throwing it off a wall. Then go in and BR each player. But when it comes to BR battles Strafe alot and jump up and down. I never really had a problem leading players cause they never really ran sideways, just towards me or back to safety.

  • 08.19.2010 12:08 PM PDT

i say just develop your own technique, itll come naturally eventually

n to those that are arguing, settle it like Halo-Men and battle it out on live

I agree with the strafing part, but its not really a good idea to jump a lot. To win br battles, you want your movement to be unpredictable as possible. You want to frequently change direction and speed. If you jump however, you cant change direction, which makes it a lot easier for your opponent to properly lead his shots since he knows that you cant change direction. Jumping can sometimes help throw off your opponents's aim, but only when combined with a confusing and unpredictable strafe.

If its aiming your not good at, then just practice.

I don't really know what to put here....

to whoever said its 4 in MLG and 5 in social, its a four shot in social. hence the term "4-shot". It is a kill if you get the first 3 bursts in the torso, and then the complete last burst in the head. Otherwise you'll need a fifth burst. Some tips are, don't try to use the right stick to aim everything. If you both are on even ground, just use strafing to aim for him, only make slight adjustments with the right stick, that helps a lot

Butthurt? Good....go fist a goat.

Unless you pull host, you're not going to be 4 shotting in social.
