Whilst playing my friend bob and his unskilled friends in a game of 4 player halo I successfully pulled off 5 killtaculars in a row...my greatest basic kill achievement so far

Aren't there running riots? Which are 10 straight kills.

  • 09.01.2004 9:33 PM PDT

bah

Running riots are at 10, 15, 20, etc... And are quite common. Killtaculars are very rare as they require stupid opponents.

So why are killtaculars rarer? They only need 5 kills... where running riots need 10?

To get a Killtacular you have to get the 4 kills within roughly 5 seconds of each other.

Killtacular is 4 kills simultaneously, or 4 kills in a row with no more than five seconds in between each one. Now has anyone ever heard them, I'd think so lol. I hear it at least 4 times a night at our local LANs, it kinda gets boring after a while. The only time it excites me anymore is if I get like 7 kills and get to hear Killtacular three times in a row with growing enthusiasm, then I might break a smile.

Running Riots are 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, so on kills without dying. This does not mean in a row or at the same time, but without dying over a period of time. Running Riots are generally a bit easier to get than KillTacs.. but never the less both depend on the quality of your opponent. Against good competetion Killtacular can be more common than Running Riots.

The people I play with (3vs3) have only ever had one, none of us are dumb enough to give away a tripple kill usually. My brother was once lucky enough to get killtacular from a 3 on 1 then a lucky spawn (pistol and rocket kills).

Killtacs are generally spawn rapings. The general idea behind getting one is finding your enemies at a weakpoint, right after they spawn and are kinda grouped together.. pick off two or three and be working on the others, using nades and pistols generally, you'll find that the ones you killed spawn just in time to be TSK-ed just as they come back into the game. If you time this right and use your nades and shots wisely you can rack up 6 ot 7 straight kills against even the best enemies. It's all about timing and spawn cappin'.

Yeeeeeaaaahhhh!!!!
What Was That ? Sorry got carryed away.
killtaculars are 4 kills in 5 sec. and for every kill right after that its another (rare w/ noobs not to uncommon for good players).
Killing Sprees are 5 kills w/o dying (easy to get)
Running Riots are (as someone already stated) 10 kills w/o dying and for every 5 after that its another (again rare w/ newbies)
ANYONE WHO HAS NEVER HEARD OF OR GOTTEN ONE GET AWAY FROM US HALOHOLICS ,YOU ARE NOT WORTHY

  • 09.02.2004 10:13 AM PDT

bah

Well, if 4 good friends get together and play Halo, they'd never ever hear killtacular. Ever. At the Halo tournament I went to, we never heard it. It's just too damn hard to get 4 kills that quicly. I had plenty of triple kills, and almost got a killtacular, but if your going to tournaments and hearing it all over the place, I'd question the level of competition where you're at.

And C T F ER, you're no Halo fan. You're a fanatic. That is a very negative thing to be.

And you've been playing Halo how long?

As I said, some people have never even had a LAN because of their small town situation. I know how they feel, I've been there. Trust me people, your first 8 vs. 8 game will kick some serious ass! There, it is just barely possible to get a killtacular with good opponents if they somehow get bunched up.

Try to understand not everyone lives in a place with a high populatuon density before opening your fat mouth and sounding like an ass.

Hey, that's almost exactly what people used to say to me! Hm...
