Halo 2 for Life!

I think I figured it out.

P2 and P3 were call outs for locations with two or three plasma grenades

and pink was a location with a needler.

I also found this Here

did you know they called those things on midship toilets? weird.

Damn you're a complete noob :/

Do you know what Ring 1, 2, 3 was? Or did it take 5 years for you to realize?

What about BR1,2,3?

No, ExcessiveFaun6 is not my real gamertag.

Cortana: The message just repeats. "Regret, Regret, Regret."
Miranda: Any idea what it means?
Sgt. Johnson: Dear Humanity... we regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!
Marines: Hoo-rah!

The best part about Halo 2 multiplayer was that there existed a large contingent who used mics for productive call outs, and that they actually knew the maps and names of call out locations. I remember that I consistently could make calls to random players that I got matched up with and people would actually follow up on them.

*reminiscent sigh*

Halo 2 for Life!

I never played MLG. How would I know the call outs until I looked it up?

I usually just described things in my own way like get to the lift or look were my x is and go their or etc.

R1 is Sword Spawn
R2 is Needle Spawn
R3 is the jump from R2 to R3 where you land and move about the ring.

This is on sanctuary

@TotallyMassive

Callouts have existed since H1 through to Reach. Not just in MLG either.

Halo 2 for Life!

well we all had different ways to describe things. I'd say like middle or big or small building, lower higher level, rocks, our base, there base, sunny side, teleporter side, long way, short way, plasma pistol or carbine side. etc.

For me, I've never played online. My grandson played online on my account but he stuck with GoW as soon as it came out. I am curious so I simply asked.

I just always thought the callouts were universal

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

That was not sarcasm in my post. I was just kind of hesitating because I wasn't sure if the OP was serious and I'm still not, hopefully he isn't.

I just noticed I said plasma pistol instead of plasma grenades... lol

Massive i can't tell if you're trolling or not >.>

P was short for Pink on Midship. P1, P2, P3.

Call outs need to "short an sweet". Descriptive enough your team isn't guessing where the hell you just called out but not too descriptive it takes 1358347 hours to say. Hence why Pink, Sniper, Battle Rifle, ETC are shortened to P, S, BR.

As well a lot of call outs are just physical features of the map, or a weapon spawn. Common sense really.
