Subject: Why do people hide when they're losing?

I'm currently in a game of doubles on enclosed right now and the other team is hiding while we're up 7 to 2. I don't get it. I know winning isn't much, but what's the point in just waiting it out?

They care to much about their k.d and cR

Lol. You're supposed to hide after you get the lead, I guess your opponents are just doing it wrong.

"When Embarking the journey of revenge you should dig 2 graves" -Confucious. Also I like firefight not for the credits but for fun. Also like Campaign but I don't play it that much. Favorite Weapon: Battle Rifle and Light Rifle.

It a possibility that there scared losing K/D. If at that case wow.

They definitely care about their kd and lolcr

  • 01.07.2012 9:05 AM PDT

Perhaps they considered that being out in the open wasn't working for them.

  • 01.07.2012 9:08 AM PDT

My guess is they are hoping you quit. Giving them the win.

Maybe they're waiting on a power weapon.

Loading...

Changing strategy and pace of the game works better, hiding it out i would rather quit.

  • 01.07.2012 9:26 AM PDT

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Still a tactic old as time itself...despite how cowardly it may seem

  • 01.07.2012 9:35 AM PDT

I don't have enough creativity to have a good signature.

As an awful player, I think the hope is they can hold an area to try and force your hand into getting cocky and rushing in, so they can score a couple of kills. Of course there is the fact that you'll most likely still win when you burst into their little hidey hole!

I've not done it lately, though. I don't care about K/D, I just play for the enjoyment. Holding up in a small area isn't enjoyable, so I'm not sure why you'd do it.

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.

Gotta get that cR! Their Barbies can't go naked to the ball, after all. What would the Kens think?

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Radar should be turned off in Doubles.

you're ugly and they don't want to see your face anymore!

  • 01.07.2012 12:10 PM PDT

idk

synthesis and i had a game where the enemy team did the same thing when we were 6-0 up. game ended 2-0 to us (i died 4 times trying to get to them)

  • 01.07.2012 12:12 PM PDT

wow you made this thread while we were playing lol.

They were quite bad. Who actually flies over the wall on Enclosed and hides. I would rather them leave so we can find better competition

Campers always trying to win. You walk around to the one and only corner to get to them and your whole squad is dead. I stay positive by thinking to myself, "Carma will get'em later."

  • 01.07.2012 12:16 PM PDT

chances are I don't care who you are or what you say.

hiding is fun sometimes xD

I dont know... what a wast of time. Why turn on a game if your not going to play?

Thats like starting a game of monopoly and when its your turn you refuse to role the dice.

Hugh... kids are weird these days.

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

They want to troll you probably, saying "Oh, well, if you win then were going to make it a pain in the ass for you, jerk!"

Although just yesterday my friend and I were destroying on Anchor 9 and we decided to start hiding at 24 kills just to be trolls. There were 4 minutes left in the game, we wanted their defeat to be shameful.

"Before you insult someone, try walking a mile in their shoes. This way, when you insult them, you are a mile away and have their shoes."

I guess it's to still get some amusement out of the game. Some people think it's amusing to let others find them. Don't ask me why.

ALL ABOUT THOSE CR AND KEEPING THAT K/D UP
