disregard video games

i have tons of games saved in theater on Halo 3 where Aussies bridged against us, lost the opening rush, got spawnkilled a few times, then standbyed us for the rest of the game.

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

Oooo you're gna die!

I'm from the UK and have the fastest home broadband you can get here (100MB) but never, repeat, NEVER pull host.

The system favours Americans so much and yet they still lose most their games against me and talk -blam!- afterwards. American education really needs to stop teaching them that theyre the best in the world cus the majority of them are far from average compared to the rest of the developed world.

I love how you give no reason for that statement.
Talk about making yourself look retarded.

This is actually very true.

Edit: most of the other stuff you said was not very true

Well at least you aren't blaming it on the fact that we eat burgers for breakfast lunch and dinner.

European education needs to stop teaching you that us Americans aren't as stuck up as you think.

  • 01.14.2011 10:46 AM PDT

As a European myself I don't agree. Most of the time, American host doesn't make me go yellow bar. Admittedly, it is far from ideal but not enough to make a 40 into 50. Aussies have got it the worst I reckon.
I do agree with the fact that a lot of Americans think their host is skill though.

Idk, I would consider myself every bit as good as any aussie 50, with the exception of 1 or 2 assuming we are on the same connection. I have beaten the best aussie I know in MM before, as well as being destroyed. Its difficult to tell because we have both beaten each other off host. Where you live doesnt really matter, either your good or your not simple as that. Host gives an advantage online, but a good player can adapt to that connection, I know I have. Complaining about it does nothing.

Oh and whoever gives you the misconception that americans think that we are better than everyone else is retarded. Stereotypes arent made just by americans either, your just as guilty as us. Not you specifically btw. Besides its human nature to be a nationalist, its only natural to want to be the best country, it seems that we are just more vocal about it. I guess we just have pride in our country, and I dont think thats a bad thing

The bar is how strong you connection is, but there is still a lot of latency involved, you could have a 3mb or 100mb connection and you would have the same latency.

I would also like to note that if this is the same ghoulies that I played with before, I did beat you what 15-3 or 15-5 on your host so its not impossible to play on yellowbar, you just have to adapt... Just run with an american who puts you yellow and learn to play on it, thats what I did with jimmy. Now aussie hosts are fine for me

I wasnt trying to attack you or anything, I was just mentioning that host, while annoying, isnt a huge factor in deciding who is good and bad. People who win only because of host arent good, they just have connection, just because they win doesnt mean they are good persay. If I were you I wouldnt make a big deal about host, else you may end up like dopey and turn into a nerd. I just think people place too much meaning in host, I have been accused of playing with aussies and bridging them, as well as playing with them because they get host. That isnt true, people are just retarded and think that host is a huge deal. I play with jimmy, simon, james, and occasionally mat because they are fun to play with and no other reason.

Sure you might get cheated out of a few kills, but thats what you have a team for, if your shots dont count, call him out. And trust me, the connection is just as bad for us. Even if we have host, which only affects one person btw, we still have latency issues.

You're right, but I was more specifically referring to Lone Wolves.There's enough killstealing in that playlist already, yb just makes it worse.

Also when I say host I don't just mean the player who is hosting the game, I'm referring to everbody who is greenbar. If you have a good team yb probably won't matter so much. In LW though its a freaking nightmare ( especially on swords, hands down the most retarded gametype in Halo history ).

I don't just use the 'bad connection' excuse whenever I get killed either, but I can tell when I should have gotten a kill but my connection took it away from me.

I'll probably just get myself up to a 40 in LW which I should get today or tomorrow, whenever I can be bothered, then leave it, it's hard enough to get a 50 in that playlist as it is. I'll just focus on getting further in TS and MLG.
And beleive me, every aussie knows how to play on yellow bar. The only rhing I hate is when Americans trash talk yet they don't realise thst they have the upper hand. Not really a complaint, just more of a pet peeve.

Fair enough, but I know a few aussies that like to talk -blam!- more so than anyone else I know(simon). Its natural to want to when you win, besides you shouldnt take anything anyone says online seriously to begin with. If they talk -blam!- just beat them the next game. If your the better player then dont just think it, know it. If you lose move on and win 10 in a row. If you go + and lose then who cares, your clearly the better player. I know I used to get very mad when I lost and did well. Now I laugh because I just realize how many bad people there are, especially now.

Dude thats so pathetic. This game is 3 years old, why are treating it like it still matters? Cheating foreign kids doesnt make you good, and it certantly doesnt make you cool. Why bother you just make yourself look like an even bigger nerd than you already did.

Why? Because if you're good enough, not to mention PATIENT enough to get a 40 on a yellow bar connection then you not only deserve a 50, but I woud say that a lot of them would be better than many of the American 50s that have the pleasure of playing on a nice green bar connection every game. To be one or two BR bursts behind your opponent and still be able to win takes some serious skill.

Of course if they bridge host every game then of course they don't deserve it, but if they did then it should be fairly easy to get a 50 when you put the Americans on yellow bar.

I'm not saying they are better than EVERY American 50, so don't flare up in a rage saying 'drool drool I WILL PWN U NOOB'.

I'm just saying that if Americans had to play in the conditions we do, where we are severely restricted from what we can do in game, a lot of them would give up before they hit 40.

So well done to all you Europeans/Australians who have put up with the crap connection and persevered in owning Yanks who think their host is their skill.


So i deserve a 50? Oo

I'm from Austria which isn't Australia. Lol
