become a good sniper in blood gulch jump up anddown if hes on the other fortress shoot him whle ur jumpin he wont know what hit him. beat not just legendary but normal and heroic too it helps alot better. o ya and i started out getting my @$$ owned by people sniping me learn how to dodge snipe shots...


He's right, you own the field if your in a secure spot taking him out without him knowing where he is, some people say it's cheap, their just upset becuz they keep dying and they can't stop you from doing it, second for your secondary gun, I recommend the pistol or shotgun, because if he does find you you pull it out and turn all close range combat on him. Thridly pratice. Just do that, no one around play yourself, check out lvls., play campaign, and such. Finally become moderatly good with other weapons, in case you have to pick one up in a hurry, oh and almost forgot, start off on the easy level in campaign, and use only your melee attack. Helped me alot. Don't shoot anyone. Before that I could take you out from down the field, but if you got to close, and past my shotgun fire, I was done. So don't underestimate to power of punching someone in the face.

Now for those people who hate the pistol, this is for you. Sigmund Freud would have told you that you have an obsession with your -blam!-'s. Because if your not picking up the pistol your picking up big guns to compensate for your lack of... size? Or your afraid of your -blam!- because it's obviously very small so you won't touch anything thats small out of fear, of your own -blam!-. Don't worry this is all sub-conscious so you don't know it, you probally fear your -blam!- because you realize that your dad's is much bigger, and so is he, and he can hurt which he will if he finds out that secertly your in love with your own mom. Well isn't Freud fun. Psychology to dis the unbelievers.

I heard what some of you mentioned about me not likeing the pistol a lot. I believed I said that they required no skill. I stand by that, but like I said I do use them. In response the only reason I do not use them a lot is due to the fact I rather tone up my other skills on other weapons/tatics. Mostly to become an all around good player, oh and for the one who said that he may come to the satation. I look forward to it, we should have a good time. The satation is pretty nice and the guy is improving it every day if he can.

One way is the weapon I pick and stage.
Try to play in bloodgulch and practice using the sniper rifle.
I have gotten to the point where I see movement running down the hill, press zoom twice and get a shot to the head within a second.
Practice alot and soon you will be taking down people within seconds because if you don't halo2 will come out and things will change for both.

[color=white] To master Halo multiplayer, here are some tips.

Run, stop, scan, repeat- if you do not stop and scan every 10 seconds or so, people will get the drop on you.

Make yourself smaller, hide behind corners, rocks, logs etc. also crouch alot. I can't stress this enough.

Weapons, For close to medium range combat levels, like hang em high and damnation, you need weapons like the shotgun, AR, and pistol<-- a must. For long range levels like BG, go sniper, pistol, and rocket launcher<-- key

Shotty- close range levels
Assault rifle- close range levels
Needler- only use on large groups of enemies, it's useless when confronting one person
Pistol- Always have one on you. Very handy
Rocket launcher- med range only
Sniper- med long range, only use on unsuspecting enemies
Plasma rifle- best weapon in campaign, but no good in mp
Plasma pistol aka pea shooter- great for close combat, one big charge and finish off with AR
Warthog minigun- this is an ofter overlooked weapon, use it when you can
Frags- their a beautiful thing
Plasma's- a last resort weapon, or for sticking people with [/color]

Thanks for all the input. I've already adjusted to Legendary and I'm beginning to beat levels with out much frustration at all, infact I don't really get frustrated.. Truth and Reconciliation is the big problem because I'm in the teleporter room with all the Elites with swords.
I've been practicing headshots using the pistol and having another player just stand there in MP. I also noticed that if you hold down the trigger while firing the pistol the accuracy goes way off. Stupid me why did I ever start doing that? But I've already noticed my accuracy go up and I know how to aim the crosshair with the pistol so its always a headshot (lower half on crosshair cover head neck area). I will do anything to own this kid when Halo 2 comes out. Thanks again.
