Inheritor #156 :p

The sad part is that those guys aren't even that good at doing it.. Only one person went double digit positive and only one got more than 12 kills in a 16 minute game on renegade.. And the person with the most kills got 38 with the banshee.. 38..

If you faced a better team it would have been 5x as worse.

Oh well. Nothing you can do about it now. The only preventative measure to not getting spawnkilled is to roll with a full party of half-decent players.

How dare someone be better than you and rub it in your face.

BLASPHEMY!

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

Searching alone in BTB or Invasion will result in wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

People better than him? Blasphemy I say.

I search Solo most of the time. That's not why you got... destroyed.
I'm not great, but I don't get spawn killed, unless people vote for Asylum SWAT, that -blam- goes south, fast.

When you're having a bad game, quit.
If you care about your K/D, get better or quit, if you stay in the game, you have no business complaining that the other team killed you X amount of times.
You can put a stop to getting 'gang styled' at any point, don't come here and whine about it.
People do it because they found the most efficient way to get kills. Deal with it.

I hate to jump on the bandwagon, but you DID deserve it. For one reason and one reason only....Joining BTB...By..your..self



I just thought I'd leave a few of these here......
Who says u cant search alone?
Sheesh, Again?
Seriously now, where are these feared big team teams?
Ah finally play against a full party, and...........

Anyway, I've never seen the validity of the don't search alone in big team argument. All the above links are part of a 15 game winning streak in anniv big team while either searching alone or with my brother. The last link was against a full party and one of our team quit before the game started, another shortly after it started, so we were down 2 guys much of the game, and still won. Also, rofl at the epic inheritor the last link pulling the nice -17.

I usually search alone in big team and have no problem going positive, and beat full party teams with my usually crap random teammates, more often than I lose, so I'm not sure what the big issue is.


The problem is not when you search alone and win, it's when you search alone and get roflstomped then come on the forums to try and discredit their win claiming the dishonor in spawn-killing. It's kinda pathetic, and once again comes back to "Don't want to get steamrolled against full party BTB runners? well don't search alone"

Why people search BTB without a full team is beyond me.

TU BTB seems to be the exception so far.
Never met anything higher than a 4man pt... and that 4man pt was a dude with 3 guests that sucked.

I have played with that guy several times, he is good, and deaf....you're just another bad kid that is crying about being out gunned and playing against someone that knows good map control.

Me?

I know the maps pretty well and how long it takes for various weapons and banshee to respawn. It just difficult when you have at least 4 of them and a banshee gunning for you. :P

I'm not going to stop shooting you so you can fight back. Grow some fingers and a brain so we can both have fun.

  • 01.18.2012 2:34 PM PDT

Then i'll just stick my hand out of your tv and -blam!- slap you.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Go AFK and come back when the game is done.

Then say that they got their stats by killing AFKers.

Haha ahh gotcha :) Yes, I would agree that it is pathetic to complain about getting ground stomped when u search alone, because indeed one is putting themselves at risk of getting matched against a talented full team, while themselves having a crappy team of randoms.

So yes, it is their own fault, however, I was mostly just poking fun at people who imply it is impossible to win alone, or beat full parties with randoms, by providing a few examples of searching alone. Nothing I enjoy much more than destroying a full party with a bunch of random teammates..... especially when a few of my team has already quit haha. Granted I have been on the receiving end of full party beatdowns myself a few times, it's just not the norm in my experience :)

People most likely Spawn kill because they don't have what it takes to challenge people in any other way.

PfffffffHAHAHAHAHA!

And winning a regular fight in Halo only happens because somebody got the first shot, right?

LAWL

If you get spawn killed it means the other team is much much much better than you. That's it.

  • 01.18.2012 2:58 PM PDT

You deserved it

All words/phrases to that effect are utter bollocks.

Games are meant to be fun and enjoyable FOR ALL and they're not if all you do for a match is watch a spawn screen because you have people who aren't willing to be good gamers on the other side and just spawn-kill - that's just plain annoying and an example of poor map design if the enemy team can get into position to spawn kill you in/around your team's area/base.

To the OP, either back out of the match &/or avoid the spawn-killers GTs. If you're not having fun getting killed over and over (some people might for e.g. trying to kill spawn killers, others dont), just quit, no point getting frustrated because of it.

If you get spawn killed it means the other team is much much much better than you. That's it.

If they really are that much better then they should kill you in the field, not in/around your spawn area, at least this way, even if the less skilled team loses, they actually get a decent attempt at winning, rather than just dying over and over. If you're good enough to pin your enemies inside their base, then you're good enough to beat them in the field, in which case, you should at least have the courtesy to think about the enjoyment of the other players, although I accept that's not how many people think on ocassion (myself included)

The first kill in a game doesn't matter. All I'm saying is that people spawn kill cause they know they can't win otherwise. On that note, the joke's really on them: spawn killers think their so cool and skilled by doing that, but by doing that, they're just displaying how desperate they are.

Why on earth would we give the other team a chance to win when we could just decimate them and end both our suffering more quickly? I don't enjoy spawn killing because it means the other team is literally not even half as good as us. It isn't fun, but it gets the game over more quickly so we can find a different game against a team that is better.
