I HATE when people sidestep (strafing refers to aircraft) left right left right while I'm shooting at them, because unless you're host you miss the majority of the shots, strictly speaking it's cheating because it's taking advantage of your connection to the game.


hahaha.. I -hate- when I got a headshot lined up, and they duck! What am I supposed to do? Aim down a little no more!? No way!! They're cheating. I demand that they return to their regular upright position, before I threaten them with cheating feedback.

And don't even get me started on those guys who dual wield, then all of a sudden drop one of their weapons and throw a grenade!! They are taking advantage of controls, tactics and concepts that I can't bare to grasp, and have no tolerance for.. hah.

I thought I heard everything when it came to -blam!-ing about H2, but this one... this one takes the cake.

Wow, you were too dumb to read it and understand it. Let me put it this way, When I am shooting at the enemy and the small pings from their shield are visible that indicate that my xbox has registered I am firing at the enemy and my bullets are making contact, I miss because they are moving in a manner that renders about 80% of my shots misses because the host of the game receives my bullets trajectory a few milliseconds after my targets co-ordinates are received, so in order to hit ever shot I would have to fire slightly in front of where my target is going, impossible if they are moving quickly left and right because of the amount of Auto-Aim *spit* on the BR. Did you understand at least why it annoys me? even if you don't understand the technicalities of online gameplay?
Only take the piss if you know what I'm on about.

I'm not going to report anyone for cheating it just pisses me off.

Listen, all you're doing is complaining about people moving out of your bullets' path, but now you're saying it with big words.

Oh my goodness, you have to fire slightly in front of your target. That's not because of host, It's called "leading your target". The same happens when you throw a grenade, you throw it where the enemy is "going" to be, not where he is. The same applies with any other projectile on the planet.

This same problem happens when you are host, unless you can't aim for crap. Host has to do it, and so does the little kid with the squeky voice.

Stay on topic, please. Even if it's poorly written, the creator of this thread was just trying to get opinion on an idea.

I actually dislike tactical shooting a lot. That's why I'm a Halo fanboy. Maybe they could add something like a prone position but I like the way the series has played so far.


I have to agree with "T3h ub3r f4nb01" that the halo series is fine but a prone position would be nice.

I also like tactical shooters like Rainbow six, and Ghost recon advanced Warfare. It gives something different to the game play. I can actually command my sqaud and have the enemies shopto at something, other then me.

I like the way it is now, granted prone position would be a nice touch for snipers. Halo is more of a western style high noon showdown, let see who has the quickest shot, straf and frags.

I've challenged my beliefs. What is the book about?


I find that this is usually untrue. If religious people honestly, diligently and intelligently challenged their beliefs, there would be no religious people.

Tactical shooting be like no shields? snipers? try some stuff out

It can be quite relieving if there are no public restrooms around.

But back on topic...

I think a cover mode like in PDZ would be workable, but not to the extent of GRAW. I still sometimes get stuck on the walls by accident in GRAW. Everyone knows what Im talking about. When you are backing up and you turn around and go into a wall and you can't pull out of the cover mode. You get pulverized. Halo is MUCH faster paced than GRAW or even PDZ, so in the split second you get stuck on that wall, you are dead from 4 different directions. If there is a specific button that gives you cover and it's easy to pull out of it, then it may be OKAY.

I ain't a dumb schmuck I know to shoot in front on the enemy when I'm firing at them.


I Ain't Dumb.


Hilarious. ROFL

And I don't think they should change the current system.
