Halo 2 for Life!

I thought smacking dead avatars was the way to go.

I only humped dead avatars only when there was a need to. It was sort of like trash talking through body movements like I just killed you, and here is something to remember me by lol. Don't bring that weak stuff to a gun fight.

It was a sign of respect also. If you just shot your teammate by mistake and he looks back at you, I would crouch to say don't betray me. Or it was used to taunt enemies that couldn't kill you. I have control of this ground lol.

The best is jump 360 crouch, uncrouch, crouch jumps.

Here is a thing get on top of relic and see how many times you can do crouch, uncrouch, crouch well spinning lol. I estimate about 7 times.

It was cool to practice the timing of jumps by crouching and jumping also.

It was sort of a sign of having fun/ or of practicing the timing of when to crouch.

Next time you hump an avatar just say you were practicing bullet dodging (as the best players would crouch to gain advantage in br and other weapon battles).

If you hit a dead avatar it was to say play fair or try harder to give me a challenge or leave your wasting my time, or if I can't have a fun game by defeating your strategy I will have some fun beating your dead avatar so you have a reason to step up your game and try and defeat me.

Nice topic.

In Halo 2, 3, and Reach, if I wasn't using a mic, and accidentally betrayed someone, even while in the middle of a fight, I would stop, look down, and crouch. Whether I get killed or not.

Honor system. My way of saying: "Sorry."

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

in this game. This stood for many things like "Hello" or "I'm not going to kill you" or "okay" or "yes" or...you know. People don't communicate like this in Reach anymore :(. I'm not sure if you guys know what I'm talking about but if you played a lot of Halo 2 then you should.
We know exactly what you're talking about. This is what players did if they did not have a mic. For instance, I remember always getting matched with guests in Team Training who would rage quit mid-game. There were a lot of times where I was in 1 v 4 situations. Funny how simple things like crouching up and down in front of the enemy would allow you to practice Superbounces the rest of the game with the other team.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

I still crouch in Halo Reach, but it doesn't seem to have the same effect as it used to. The crouch worked in Halo 3, but communication itself has declined since the formation of Party Chat.

Party chat has caused a decline in communication between players in Halo nowadays. Most people would rather talk to their friends then with some random person in the match, and yet somehow teamwork between teammates who don't chat is still the same as with those who do chat.

Halo 2 for Life!

Yeah I agree, also not being able to talk to the enemy sucked. Trash talking isn't a bad thing if it's for fun or somthing like this lol.

I think the more communication modes the better and H3 had very few to no communication modes (or very restiricted ways of communicating).

  • 04.10.2011 8:38 PM PDT

If you didn't Play Halo: CE or Halo 2 MP, your opinion about Halo means nada.

CE + H2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> H3+Reach+H4

So true.

Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

I know what you mean.

In my early days of Halo 3 matchmaking, I didn't use my mic, so I had no better communication to my team other than shooting at them once or twice to tell them I'm there. Then, in the middle of a game on Last Resort, me and some elite guy were sitting in that room under the gate controls. The elite starts randomly crouching up and down. I thought he was T-bagging, so I copied hiim. That elite then gave me a ROCKET LAUNCHER!

This is my tale of crouching.

Halo 2 for Life!

? when someone tea bagged for on reason I BXR'ed them lol. If there was a reason like they were trying to communicate something then I wouldn't. But I recall a few time people crouching all game for no reason... very annoying in those cases and gives reason for BXR'ing.

Tell me what your trying to communicate or shut up lol.

Everyone uses tbagging to communicate on the 360. In every single game, people do it. From most FPSes to MMOs like PSU to just about every game where you can crouch or sit, everyone tbags.
