Subject: Why is playing with randoms bad?

When you carry them going plus 27 and still lose it makes you rage. Randoms can't hold their own and cause un nesicerary losses.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Because they can't utilize land turtles.

OT: Randoms are the most unreliable pieces of crap.

Okay find me a game where you had good randoms. Or most likely. YOU are the bad random on the team and they carry you. And then you make them lose and they rage.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

People tend to generalize all randoms as "thumbless, double pummeling, ARing noobs".
At least I can use a magnum.

Statistically most are.

spiral out

Randoms are random. They can be really good, or they can be pants-on-head retarded. The latter is unfortunately the case most of the time. I rarely play with a team, so I have to deal with allies that spawn with DMRs and switch them for Plasma Repeaters.

I've had plenty of games with good randoms, although you are correct that more often than not they suck.

And its not unusual for me to get over 10 kills per game, so I wouldn't say I am "bad".

You hit the nail on the head, I search mostly as a random and when the game goes bad it seems everyone is running around like chickens with their head cut off.

Goat was famous. Irie was infamous. Gh0st was FaMaS.

My stats in Halol 4

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

Randoms have never once been good in my entire Halo career.

It's just that most randoms you match up with don't even communicate. I know when I'm in big teams, we make sure to get a full party before searching.

Over 10 really?!?!?!
i normally only get like 3 kills.

I'm in love with Jesus and proud of it!

Crappy internet forces me to be a Random.

Besides, I usually do well. That, and I don't think it matters since I play a lot of Rumble Pit.

Here are four good reasons after a quick look through my recent games, I'm sure there are more there though.

1, who votes this garbage?
2, 3 points between 6 people, YAY :)
3, thank you random that took the sniper every time.
4, I don't even know what to say.

You go for a win streak don't you? You get more credits the more kills you get, the worse your teammates are, the more chances you get to finish a weakened enemy :P

randoms are why I quit Halo. After 50k kills over 3 and Reach, I just quit. Halo is a team game. When you team cant pull their heads out of their behinds long enough to back you up on a single fight, or to not throw grenades at you when youre sword lunging, or to not betray you for the sniper and then miss every shot, or any of the other things randoms do. You either lose do to their being bad, or you win due to the other team having bads. Neither way feels rewarding.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

Because they endlessly rush the enemy position and show utter disregard of even basic tactical knowledge. This causes me to lose because their negative impact on the team outweighs my positive impact as a player with a brain. 3 idiots outweigh one semi-smart player.

Example of random tactical knowledge

To an extent yes,if your team is kinda bad, you can just mop up all their kills. If they are really bad, and hand the enemy all the power weapons and dont even attempt to get map control, and your opponents are decent, you will do terrible, and there is nothng you can do about it. Typical example, on Asylum: You grab sniper, noob betrays, grabs shotgun and your sniper, he runs to sword spawn, or all the way across and dies... annnd you are stuck with an AR against two sniper rifles, the sword, and both shotguns...
