Subject: Do you betray yoinkers?

"Angry Angels, Honour & Loyalty!"

Nope.

If you get yoinked, it's your own fault for doing it while other are people near by.
At times, it seems the other guy is intentionally yoinking me.

Remember a system called "Highest Skill"? Remember when one or two people had camo and not the whole team? Remember everyone had to climb up to the top of the map, NOT FLY? Remember when nobody could run faster than the other? Remember when you couldn't stall your own death? Remember when there was a variety of maps? Remember when we set our OWN challenges for fun, not by Bungie for credits? Remember when "General" meant something? Remember Halo...3? Forget Reach.

I don't betray because i'm afraid of getting booted, I rather don't betray because it's stupid to get mad because your teammate finishes your kill.

It's a team based game, and If we start behaving selfishly like people played arena before season seven, then it becomes like FFA with teams, which is stupid.

I don't mean to brag I don't mean to boast but I got hummus for these MINI TOASTS!

My friend flips out when I Yoink! him he threatens to delete me!

No, I simply shoot them for it until they give in, he ruins my fun and I'll ruin his fun.

never, because I try to yoink every chance i get.

Frank O'Connor said he doesn't think the Halo series needs to be taken in a radical new direction... it just needs to go "deeper"

"Ultimately the core game mechanic and strength of the universe doesn't need to be changed, it just needs to be taken deeper. We want to make Halo games - we don't want to make Call of Duty or Ridge Racer. We want to make Halo games because we understand what's special about Halo."

I like your way of thinking.

No, I give them a seering look through my visor, making sure that they feel just a pang of shame.

I feel no shame.

Personnaly, i will never purposely yoink another player. There is of course the odd time i panic and don't stop shooting when i see a friendly crawling onto the enimies back. I feel like a jerk when i get a yoink medal.

As for when I get yoink-d, if it was purposeful, i'll fire one shot at the offending team mate. No point in killing him. It was my own fault for assuming my matchmade team mates aren't a bunch of trolls. Just because you can't get them, doesn't mean you should be a jerk.

My Top 5 games of all time
1. Fallout 3
2. Super Mario 64
3. Halo CE
4. Gmod
5. Rachet and Clank

No i dont care if they yoink me. I dont even care if you betray me. i usally forgive a person who betrays me. But sometimes if i had a spree going i boot them.

Generally speaking, if I get betrayed immediately after a Yoink!, I boot.

If someone yoinks me, I lower their shields the entire game.

The person getting assassinated is dead. You shouldn't be trying to yoink, you should be shooting other people.

Don't want to play an entire game of slayer without shields? Don't yoink me. I earned it, you didn't.

Sure I did. You just held them in place for me.

You keep shooting me, expect me to jump onto your grenade and then boot you. You don't get to play in a game with me if you're going to be a jerk.

Call me a jerk when you were one first, nice logic.

Best thing is, I have never gotten booted, because the Reach booting system works SO well.

Lol'd.

People like you are the reason I yoink, just for the lulz.

No, I wouldn't be. I would be taking advantage of the situation. The game even rewards me for it. Even Bungie and 343 think it's okay.

I tend to screw round in my game anyway, it isn't like you'd be ruining anything for me.

I enjoy screwing around too, it's hilarious when I lower yoinker's shields and they die constantly, eventually getting buttmad enough to quit and send me hatemail.

Whelp, I'm not one of those people, and instead I'll finish the game and then send in an unfavorable player report to ensure we'll never meet again.

But at least I'll know I got you asshurt enough to try to ruin my game. Thanks for holding them still, though.

  • 03.02.2012 6:10 PM PDT

I shoot yoinkers and am a yoinker myself.


Don't stand next to me once I get the rockets.

>implying lowering your shields the entire game isn't the most fun thing to do in Reach since everyone left for better games, including Bungie.

Stay mad.

Oh, but I'm not mad. This is all hypothetical, after all, and even if it were happening, I don't see why I'd be mad. I already got my kill, and I'd be having fun shooting you while you shoot at me.

Usually Not, but if they "yoink" me more than once than I will kill them.
