I came back.

Paragon renegade, are you a better sniper/player than me. Since halocharts says othewise, I will go check. Oh wait, the sites not around anymore, Your point is invalid.

I dont need to actually 1v1 you to tell you that I am better or that you made up a fake statistic.


It's quite ovbious that you are better but I'm sure the top 5% includes anyone with an onyx. I mean realistically speaking most people who play this game are bad.

Yet, we'll still win because we're not stubborn and do not refuse to exploit the game to win.
Then why are you still terrible?

No good player uses camo. I'm out, This thread is dumd and OP is dumderer.


REally you better go talk to it's scope then. I think he used camo against some of obey's guys and went 39-2? And he is in the top 2% in this game. Generalizing to state that anyone who uses camo is bad is a really bold statement and I could easily proove you wrong.
1 exception doesn't make it wrong. I can guarantee that 99% of people who choose camo to snipe with are worse than people who choose sprint to snipe with.

Only bad players support choosing camo from spawn because they're the only ones who need to use it.


You have nothing to back up this incorrect statement. It's like saying stop caming in corners, it's cheating. If it was such a bad thing it would not be in the game. Stating that only bad players would use camo, is kind of retarded.

You honestly have no proof to make such an accusation.

Then maybe, next time instead of making completly stupid comments. Just keep them to yourself.

I'm better than 95% of the population with a 2 K/D and a 70% W/L, so have fun generalizing


Brought up from previous page
How can you be better than someone with a higher kd and a higher win percentage than you. If they have a higher win/loss and a higher k/d, they are better than you.
this you?

  • 01.08.2012 12:44 PM PDT

It's fine when Camo is a pickup. Otherwise it slows down the game and makes the game experience worse for all involved. Well except you of course, I imagine you're as happy as a pig in -blam!-.

You're smart to use it, no doubt but I think that is beside the point.

It's bad for the game.

When I see people using it and crouching there for all they're worth.. I imagine their sphincter is clenched tight enough to turn charcoal into diamonds before the match is over.

  • 01.08.2012 12:48 PM PDT

Um it was itz scope on timberlands but he used the pick up camos the whole game I don't have a link for you. I think it was against armourous, tritton some other people. I was just stating that saying someone uses camo because they are bad is quite stupid. I mean would you use sprint with rockets come on.

[Edited on 01.08.2012 12:50 PM PST]

Yes I do use sprint with rockets. That point was not well thought out on your end.

  • 01.08.2012 12:51 PM PDT

lol

Nothing

Yes you may. I might as well. Thing is what would the smart thing to do be given aa's are in this game. Hmm use jetpack and rockets would be the better idea because it is an advantage. There is no reason to state if you used camo once and a while you are bad. Maybe you enjoy using camo because it is an "advantage". I know you can use it with sprint but does it make you a better sniper or moronic in ts given the fact you have the choice of having an advantage and declining it. It's hard to say really opinionated but saying someone is bad because they use camo is pretty unintelligent.

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.

I don't use it because I would feel like too much of a pansy if I did. But as for what's wrong with it, nothing really. It's just really annoying. Funny thing is though, when I find out someone on the other team is using it, I still kill them three or four more times than they kill me (if they kill me at all). Which is sad, because it should be incredibly easy for them.


I actually have a video in my File Share of some idiot trying to camo snipe me and failing miserably. I was crouch walking in the open and he had two shots before I killed him.

  • 01.08.2012 1:00 PM PDT

I stand by my, and many others posts that: If you are a camo sniper, you are bad at this game.

Opinion, but also correct.

  • 01.08.2012 1:04 PM PDT

You want a sandwich? Sure. As long as you don't mind me putting poison in it.

Yeah. I use the AR, so what? All you can do is scream and rage about me using the weapon.

Wheres Viper when you need him? Unfortunately camo sniping does mean that you need a crutch to do well in a game.

crutch=bad

Opinion. I could say power weapons are a crutch too right using your logic. Which means if you only use rockets or shotgun you are bad. If you decided you were going to camo snipe for fun would you be bad? Sigh and I thought you were somewhat intelligent. Because not everytime will someone camo snipe. If I decide I will camo snipe or use sprint I have been given the oppurtunity to do so. Don't hate the player hate the game. If I put a silencer of my ump45 and use ninja pro and have a 400$ headset I can hear you but you can't hear me. Using your "logic" I would be using a cruth since a crutch is anything that puts you at an advantage over anyone else. So basically everyone must not have a headset use power weapons and just a dmr and one grenade.

power weapons can be controlled, observed and countered during play. AAs can't. indeed the only way to counter camo is to choose camo yourself which is just retarded.

Bazza please stop being stupid. Exactly AA's can't be comtrolled. What about the fact I have lot's of money and can buy a 400$ headset which easily puts me at an advantage over you because I know where you are at all times. By your logic you would say you could get a headset but that would be retarded. You see any smart team could easily know where that sniper is since red dot's show up and camo does not last very long now. Get map controll and surround this camo sniper. I see no problems.

  • 01.08.2012 1:24 PM PDT

Oh my lord.

Opinions do have weighting on some things. Just because you can use it, doesnt mean you should. Almost every good Halo player likes the feel of Classic Halo. In that regard, the good player thinks everyone should have the same weapons (and in Reach, abilities).

Nobody good should choose camo because they know that it ruins gameplay. I am fine when camo is a pickup and a person has the sniper because I know that they earned the power up/weapon. Im just saying that invisibility should not be a choice off of spawn.
