Subject: Why are kids with the Halo 2 nameplate so bad?

The other day, I played a game on pinnacle and my teammate who sported a Halo 2 nameplate betrayed me for shotgun and rockets. He then preceded to fail by committing suicide with them. The other team got the lead because of this and proceeded to spawn kill us with sniper and shotgun. When I asked him why he did it he said, "Because I know this map and you're just a noob!"

Today, during a game of team slayer on reflection, I had sniper and was on a sniper spree. This kid on the other team kept chasing me around the map. So I noscoped him. As he died he yelled some profanities about how this game is garbage. Then, he chased me again. So I noscoped him, again. He later chased again, and I killed him with grenades and DMR. I then teabagged him. I mean he deserved it, right?

After the game, he invited me to party. He and his friend started telling me that I was bad and that this game has no skill. He then tells his friend to file complaints on me for lacking skill.

I told him about how I just got my xbox about a year and a half ago, but how I played all the halo games and halo 2 was not that great. He should be better than me because he played the halo series longer and he is the noob for rushing me over and over. I don't know what it was like to play halo 2 online, but I have played the game with friends and it is pretty boring compared to Halo 3 or Reach. After telling him this, he threatened to hack me.

The next game I played, I had a run in with a kid who betrayed for sniper on Hemmorage. Guess what? Halo 2 nameplate.

So H2 forum, why do kids that use the halo 2 nameplate act like nerds stuck in their mom's basement?

I'm a decent, relaxed player who plays Reach for fun (also lulz), not for being the best.

Problem, officer?

I think you should post this to the Reach forums.

Having the Halo 2 nameplate means that they played Halo 2's multiplayer it doesn't mean they played a lot of games they. They could have just played one game than never played the multiplayer again. So who Cares!

you're joking right? HALO 2 is the best game in the series! 3's multiplayer was alright but it couldnt be compared to 2

you've missed out on so much, HALO 2's multiplayer was the pinnacle of gaming until the fall of 2007 when CoD4 came out. you actually like reaches multiplayer more? theres not one good map in reach + the weapons are terrible (sword is -BLAM!-, shotgun, plasma rifle, plasma repeater and AR dont get the job done)

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

There is no incentive to win on Halo Reach, no legit ranking system so why bother trying to win. Without the need to win, you find other ways to enjoy yourself on Reach because its too dam boring playing online matches on Reach.

Your just mad because you got team killed one too many times, get over it and move on. Go rant or vent your anger out on the Halo Reach forum, its just a game.

My old Halo 2 account is Devil brothers

When ever I check the Halo 2 game history of someone who's using that name plate, they've usually played 1-10 games.

  • 07.03.2011 3:27 AM PDT

Wow, I never new the world of console gaming was this desperate. I have respect the old school halo 2 xbox players though.

Is reach always this bad?

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

No linked Gamertag and has not even been a member for one month?

I'm done.

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

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

OP's opinion = Invalid

R.I.P. Halo 2 11/9/04-4/15/10
If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

I use Halo 2 nameplate and none of those descriptions sound like anything I have done therefore:

Your opinion = invalid

You sound like the guy who invited me to party. I had PS2. All I did was play Kingdom Hearts over and over again. A much better game than any of the halos if you ask me. I guess you missed out...

Probably, but it's still my personal opinion on the players until I see otherwise.

Sometimes. When in contact with squeakers or kids with halo 2 nameplate.

  • 07.03.2011 10:02 PM PDT

It doesn't mean they played longer, just means they went online before it was taken down. They were probably some legit 5's on Halo 2, if that.


Don't act if Reach or Halo 3 is better when you've never played Halo 2 online. It was by far better.


You do know you dont have to game 24/7 365 right? Whos to say that a great player from Halo 2 didnt quit playing an just start back up with reach? So therefore they suck.


You cant compare Halo 2 to Reach, they are completely different in terms of gameplay.

  • 07.04.2011 12:34 AM PDT

It was just by chance dude. So a few Halo 2 nameplate guys were jerks... I'd like to think that Halo 3 nameplate kids are the worst.

i know what KH is lol, been playing it since it came out in 2001 (or 2002, cant remember exactly when) awesome game and i agree with you it is better then most halo games except C.E and 2 IMO.

KH may have a better story mode but halo has multiplayer, once you get bored of KH theres nothing else you can do until you get back into it about a year later. you can still play halos multiplayer if you get bored of the story so halo is better IMO but both are still great games.

  • 07.04.2011 5:26 PM PDT

If you couldn't get a legit 50 in H3 then you suck so bad You're opinion is null to me.

If you think my Reach K/D is bad, it's because I play the one playlist that requires 2 hands to win in.

If you think you're better than me, 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4 me. And we'll see what happens ;).

but this is all you need to know about me

If he didn't play halo 2 online then you might as well stop talking to him because there's nothing you can do to explain how glorious of a time that was. Long live 2005.

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

I use the Halo 2 plate as well. More than 10,000 games played on my two accounts.

The pinnacle of gaming for me was early 2005 to 2007.

I completely agree with you, no halo game compares to halo 2 online. Reach is terrible, 3 isn't as bad but still has nothing on 2. If only for the halo anniversary game they would use halo 2 multiplayer instead of reaches as can be seen by the assassination in the trailer. Halo 2 anniversary would be the ultimate, if all they did was upgrade the graphics to HD (obviously I have no idea how games are made so this is likely impossible). This is all they need to do to win back the majority of gamers like myself who have gone on to COD

I'm an example of this, I stopped playing halo properly after halo 2 but have owned all of them since, when i play reach which is rarely im not terrible usually in the top 2 of my team but that depends on how good the others are obviously. I have the Halo 2 nameplate in my name and i do remember getting to the high 30's maybe 38 or i may have even got to 40 it was too long ago now to remember but this was before the level reset(i cant remember if there was just 1 or 2?). Pretty much OP opinion = invalid
