Subject: Things you can't believe the community hasn't figured out

"What are we holding on to, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for."

So what things have you noticed that nobody else seems to have figured out? Personally, I can't believe that nobody has figured out how to tell whether or not someone in a bubble shield has a shotgun or an AR. I get rushed at least once a day while I'm clearly holding a shotgun. It's hilarious.

I can't believe that people who are brand new to Halo are so attracted to multi-team.

Since when does the entire community of Halo 3 consist of a couple people who can't tell what weapons you're using? I also highly doubt that the whole entire community of a 5 year old game hasn't figured something out yet... especially something as simple as noticing what weapons people are using.

The point of this thread is clearly based on personal experience, not actual statistics. For example: "I can't believe the MW2 community still gets care packages stuck on the bridge on Underpass". Obviously not everyone does, but it happens all the time, and is something I've noticed.

Black Ops 2 I run two accounts warmup only at 1.97kdr...real is at 3.77. i'm in master division 4 league play. pm 4 clan inv...must have 2.5 kdr or better

People who think rushing is a smart tactic.

People who suck with sniper and still pick it up.

People who brag when barely winning and when your teammates are completely incompetent or derankers.

People who can't get a 50 after Reach.

People who say Halo 3 lacks glitches. It has a ton of jumps that people are unaware

I changed usernames to match my gamertag. My original account, wambo114, was created when I got xbox live. I'm a 2007 kid really!

You obviously haven't played halo at recently, but wait, you've only played 300 games of halo 3 so you wouldn't know would you? The same thing director mentioned happens to me. Noobs running in a straight line into your bubble shield or regen when you have snipe, mauler or shotgun. Happens at least a few times a week for me..

It still took me like a whole year after Reach to get my first 50.....embarrassing.

Yeah I love it when people rush you when you have a sniper! It's like they think that it can ONLY be used at long range or something.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I can't believe not all of the easter eggs have been found yet, according to a couple Mail Sacks.

The wording, to me at least, just made me think that you were talking about the entire community. My bad.

We can, it is just more amusing to say we're not.

There's more people playing for fun instead of competition.

You only need 4th place to win in any FFA playlist/game.

I'm pretty sure it is top 3 in Lone Wolves since that would make you in the top half.

Yes, it's top half. Also, in Lone Wolves it matters WHICH place you get, because you get a bigger skill advancement for 1st place than 3rd.

de-rankers are people who have no lives, and do not care about the game at all, hence why they de rank and ruin the game for everybody else.

  • 10.23.2012 2:43 AM PDT

If you search without a full party, you should expect a de-ranker so you shouldn't whine about it.

De-ranking is (sadly) a legit strategy.

I don't know if I'd call it a strategy. It's just attempting to lose rank. A lot of people just leave the controllers on turbo and let their Xbox run for a few days.

However, I agree that if you run on your own you're asking for it. Sucks, but that's just how it is.

Yeah it makes me laugh when they say "But we're keeping the game alive!" Maybe if you consider a bunch of AFKs hopping up and down keeping it alive......
