Goat was famous. Irie was infamous. Gh0st was FaMaS.

My stats in Halol 4

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

My Pistol K/D is below 1 because I don't play LOLInfection and never used the pistol in regular gametypes because I don't get lucky when I spam with it.

Grifball is also my favorite playlist but my 2nd most played playlist is BTB, and my K/D in THAT is only .01 less than my Grifball K/D which is my highest...So I do as well in Grifball as I do in BTB...what does that say?
That's quite shameful.

What? That I enjoy grifball or that my BTB K/D is lower than my Grifball K/D?

If its the former than congratulations. You're a dick. I'm a random. I don't enjoy team based game types, save grifball. Why? Bad teammates, hyper competitive opponents, full parties, spawn campers, power weapon betrayers, vehicle spawning campers...Grifball I can actually escape spawn traps and win the game by myself if I really try for it.


With grifball there's a lack of things that can go wrong. Spawn trapping is pretty much the ONLY negative thing I run into. Maybe one game in twenty I'll have a random player betraying my team or spawn killers.

Maybe one game in FIVE in a competitive playlist I would encounter any of the problems listed above. That's 5% to 20%. Pretty significant, IMO. I'll play the playlists that I have to deal with less crap.
No, it's shameful that you somehow managed to have a pistol k/d below 1.

lolAR kids.

4. Your AR K/D ratio is much above 1

8. You never ever got rated in Arena

2. Your favorite playlist is grifball/infection/action sack

3.If you think Armor Lock takes skill
4) How much is this "over 1"?

8) I played 2 games in season one. I never went into the playlist again, two bad experiences with bad teammates.

2) Favorite? No, not for me. Fun? Kinda

3) Just about as much as any other armor ability

He who spams with the Default Magnum is an idiot and should be considered such.

You'll get no where with it if you use the same mindset you should have for the DMR. It's actually not that hard to get the pacing right, its just getting it right in the most efficient manner.

I generally also don't use the pistol BECAUSE I have a DMR and because of its small magazine. And I must go up against a LOT of idiots because whenever I DO go up against a pistol wielder they generally spam and win. I rarely get killed with it at a distance; its usually melee range.

Wow, just did a more...thorough check. I have less than 500 deaths with the pistol, with around 250 kills...but them I have about 9400 total kills...NOBODY uses the pistol a lot in Rumble Pit according to my matches...

lolAR kids.

I have a 2.4 K/D in Community BTB, yet I have only played 1 game. I have a .56 Pistol K/D in Rumble Pit but its positive in most other playlists, but I've played almost 700 rumble pits.

Its all subjective.

Default Magnum>Default DMR if you do it right. If they spam at close range and that is the only way they use it to kill you, then they're doing it wrong because that is but one way to kill with it.

I only have 1200 kills with the pistol altogether...and I have 15,000 kills with my other top ToD (minus the Grav Hammer). I just don't use it often. I'm sure if I ONLY used it for the next week I could get it positive. This IS a case of lack of trying...or using. :-/

Well there are varying degrees of obscurity if that's any consolation. :/

That's not how chronological lists work, OP. Also i'm pretty sure the people guilty of #5 (AKA #2) are most likely just playing halo reach for fun, so i'm pretty sure they don't care about armchair athletes saying they suck.

You forgot #11:
11. You post topics that compare player skills yet you haven't linked your xbox profile to your Bungie.net account.

inb4 "ubad", I never said that I'm not an average player lol so get over your ego.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

While only 4 and 8 apply to me, I know I'm bad. I don't need a criteria list to tell me that.

I love living in America: "You **** with us, we'll **** you up!"

Yeah, I'm going to base my feelings of worth and usefulness in a game by matching up with some random idiots idea of "good".

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

The ability to come out with a positive K/D, communicate with teammates, work with my teammates, and my entertainment value for said teammates.

Such as knowing that certain friends are good at different things via the knowledge of playing with them long enough to know how they play.

Hmm, drunk and B.net don't go well together.

I agree i am a boss witht the AR, my K/D is 3.00+ and i smack kids who use the dmr with it. but i still hate those darn players that shoot until they get close enough too melee those guys have no skill

are people aloud to play for fun anymore without being put down? pretty immature if all people is fight about how good they are

  • 11.01.2011 1:38 AM PDT

1. Your K/D ratio is below 1
1.32, pretty low.

7. Your ToD is melee
DMR, melee is number 5. Still positive, though.

4. Your AR K/D ratio is much above 1
1.26, and holy crap. Didn't know I had over 200 AR kills. Ew.

8. You never ever got rated in Arena
Only played it when it was based on your stats, and IDR if I got rated. Haven't felt like playing this version w\because of lolbloom.

2. Your favorite playlist is grifball/infection/action sack
Does playing them to get some challenges and then getting the hell out count?

9. Your K/D is below 1 in most playlists
Only one, MLG. Only have one other guy who would play MLG with me. I hate searching anything other than 4s in MLG.

5. Your ToD is the AR
Nope, it's the DMR.

10. Your pistol K/D is below 1
1.84

6. If you think cR rank shows skill
Nope. cR rank is time played.

3.If you think Armor Lock takes skill
Invincibility buttons aren't funny.

  • 11.01.2011 1:55 AM PDT

None of those traits apply to me, yet I am a fairly bad player overall. It all means nothing, really.

  • 11.01.2011 2:14 AM PDT

K/D doesn't matter in Halo that's why I like this game so much because I can just have fun without caring what my overall K/d will be. Because in some playlists like infection and you're a zombie, you might die 20 times to get 1 kill? So who cares?
