I've heard a lot of people say they prioritize people with certain helmets. Do you actually?

And I mean while sniping and looking at a group. In a situation where you can safely pick a target, how do you do so?
Usually it's the first guy I see.
However, it feels so good to put a Sniper round through EVA, so if "some nubcake" is wearing EVA while I'm sniping, I'll admit, I'm going to go after that guy.

You?

Why would anyone do that?

Nope. I don't give a damn what some persons armor is.

I've never even thought of something that dumb. Like ever.

I prioritize by weapon they are holding + distance from me x threat to my team.

I kid you not. I've been hearing it around Reach since Day 1 back in September 2010.

Flood Kids? Lol.

Nope. Except EOD. Everybody that uses EOD seems to have some sort of.. issue. Seriously, is it just me or are all EOD users special?

I must have been searching with smart players too long.

I've never heard anything like that. I do go after trash talkers who are have negative kds though.

Hurrr I go after all noobs with Recon durrr.

No seriously, why would anyone prioritize targets by armour? I'd prioritize targets by how much of a threat they are. That way I don't die as much. Also, I only kill when there is an oppertune time to do so - If I'm sneaking around, and I see one player facing away from me, I will not kill him and expose my position - I'll wait until I can catch their entire team off guard, or pick them off one by one from a position they would not know where I would be (aka when sniping or something).

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

I usually leave the kids with EOD for last, due to the fact that this helmet is usually worn by someone who can't use their gun and has to resort to double-pummel.

Looking to hook up with some competent players! Please PM me if you want a decent team mate, looking to learn from good players and impart what I know to the team too. Im sick of going 'randy' and getting betrayed for the sniper etc.. and having to put up with BK team mates

I always go for the guy with his shields down first

  • 01.13.2012 11:31 PM PDT

fear me, for i am pro sauce

i dont usually, but if i start to shoot someone and 1 or 2 more enemies appear, i will strafe/jump/jetpack past them to get my kill

I tend to notice the EVA helmet more, but it doesn't factor into who I kill first.

I voted for the last option anyway though because it made me laugh.







Side note: Any one who wears the EVA helmet with the skull on it, is always bad. Always.
