I'm JP, and I am a nine month veteran of the Dropshock Brigade. My interests are not only in gaming but sports and hobbies such as football, hockey, airsoft, and baseball. I started playing Halo when I was four years old, and I hoping that Halo 4 will become a great game and successor to the previous halos.

Try Strafing. When they spam you, they can't always get a shot on you, and just keep aiming for their upper body, and they will die.

Why is hypocrite spelled with an E at the end?
The I in crite is not pronounce as eye.

So, on the one hand I spell it out exactly as it should be.
You follow the standard set before you by fools who can't even get a handle on the rules of their own language.

This is why I'm glad I'm mainly a "support" player. I've been one since my playing days of MLG back for Halo 2.

I would get laughed at if I went -6 on LIVE and only get about 25 assists in an objective gametype.

But come LAN at events, my BEST game I went +9 with 54 assists on CTF Midship. No it's not because I sucked and couldn't finish my kills, I pretty much pestered the other team and got them to 1-2 shots and my slayers on my team would finish the kills.

I love the new playlist, especially Zero Bloom because it's now easier for me to get assists, kills and help my team.

It's also nice playing with people who will acutally FINISH my kills when I call them out.

I think my new favorite person to play with is Gh0st, not only because he is a solid player but he also has a few friends that I can mesh really well with them solely because they finish my kills and I try to help them out in battles as well.


As for he whole host thing and bloom, it's just completely random but when you roll a team of 4 in a 4v4 playlist, I don't think that becomes a huge factor anymore as everyone can team shoot.

I do go in with a full team. It's just that whenever we face another even half brained team on my host, it's like I can't do anything and we're a man down.

That's what is the most frustrating part about this game. When I go into games and I pull host, I seem to have the worst luck in the game when it comes to 1v1 battles. It always seems as the spammer wins and I lose if I quick pace my shots.

But one problem is, the odds of facing another decent team in this game is pretty much slim to none. I think in all the games I rolled with Gh0st and his friends (possibly I think you as well if you are blue book shelf) we didn't lose any game, infact they were pretty boring to me just for the simple fact it was too easy.

Which is why I loved the 1-50 ranking system, yes even though flawed, in Halo 2 I could always find competitive matchups at Level 34 and in MLG in Halo 3 I ALWAYS found a great game.

Reach, it literally is for the casual player who doesn't want to try to earn their rank anymore.

Yes, I'm Bluebookshelf.

Lately I've stopped running with a full team because of how boring it is. Either people quit out, or there's no competition. With randoms at least there's a challenge and the competition is forced. But on my host I can't dominate.

Can't wait til ZB hits MLG playlist. I'll play nothing else.

What am I supposed to do?
Adapt like I did, or play with mexicans.


I'm the kind who sided with playing with mexicans.

I hear ya man. It's just frustrating. I don't think there is anything you can do though. It's almost like you have to roll 4's in this game now a days in HOPES of getting good matchups...

Then again We could win by 60 kills again in Squad Slayer

To anyone who tells you to get better or whatever, I just laugh because I was watching you play in some of those games, you definitely have the slayer ability and teamwork. There are no real flaws in your game, I think it's just the game hating on you because you have host lol.

I'm actually fairly bad. That game was on my host, and I couldn't kill worth dick - as evidenced by my assist numbers. I pretty much gave up on slaying that game.

Assists = teamwork

If it hadn't have been my host, all those assists would have been kills.

They were kills, your team got credit for them.

If that game was on your host then I loved the connection because all my bullets would register and I could do good in 1v1 battles.

Assists in matches can be inflated because teammates finish off your kills when you least expect them to. i.e. steal them.

Like how you yoinked me, I didn't care though because I am working on my assistant commendation lol.

I don't know, I don't think you are a bad player, then again I only played with you for a little bit and I had to go because my wife was taking a nap.

Personally, try not to think about it too much and go with the flow of the game. If you hear the other player spamming pop a few shots in him and run away, call him out and let teammates take over to finish him off.
