Subject: Gotta love the Boot system.


Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

Whoever designed the Booting system did a really good job, and I mean a really good job, so good that I can get betrayed 8 times by the same guy and not get one option to boot yet in another match I can hit a guy with debris from a falcon I shoot down and get booted instantly.

So some guy decides to be Mr. -blam!- and betray me, I must have pissed off a couple of team mates, seeing as I get betrayed 8 times by one guy, 3 times by two others and 2 more times by another two.

Oh this was a fun match, I get stuck with two people of a full party on the enemy team, whenever I kill one of them, I get betrayed, whenever I get a vehicle or weapon, betrayed, and I was not the only guy who had to suffer from these -blam!-s, that Wolf guy also got betrayed for using the sniper, I even got told to go back to CoD at the end, not sure what kind of message the guy at the top got seeing as he did call them bad.



What I really do not understand is why people(I'm guessing at least that I am not the only one who has to put up with this) have to suffer from this while 343 sit on their lazy backsides and do nothing.

I think the only thing keeping me from betraying back was knowing that they would boot instantly.

Because obviously you cannot find your own picture, and obviously you believe this thread has been posted more times than your own.

I remember in a game of Arena on Synapse I was betrayed 9 times with no boot option by the same guy. He sniped me 3-4 times grenaded me 2-3 times and rockets me 3 times.

I read a theroy that the boot system detects the duration your hurting your teammates health and puts that into account. Meaning if you use the AR thats a slow death and it can tell your purposly shooting them but if you kill them somehow instantly the system doesnt know if it was on purpose. Meaning a rocket or snipe to the head it could consider it "accidental"
I guess I will remember that while I am being gunned down by my own team and then crouched up and down on.

An eye for an eye is not going to solve anything, it just allows the betrayer to get that great feeling he achieved something in life when he kicks a random person.

***KEEP IT CLEAN***

Feedest Ye Notte Yon Trolles

What I like to do is purposely wait with the option to boot him on my screen. I hear "10 seconds remaining" an then I boot him so he doesn't reap the credits for that match. A long painful revenge I guess but the Boot system is flawed.

Bungie say this is how Halo is meant to be. 343i change a few things and ruin AA's and call the game "fixed" yet the campaign is broken, glitched and god-awful. So what more do you want? Just quit and appeal your ban if you get one. Like us all my friend, we all have to deal with the disappointment of douche's in more games than 1.

Peace.
