I was mid 30s in most of the modes I played often.

I used to rock with the sniper, didn't even touch the shotty in shotty snipes.

Now I can't hit the broad side of a barn with it. And I can't find the sensitivity I like anymore. I seem to want something between 6 and 7 but I can't get it!

I was okay, mainly played social so I could play with my brother and neighbour on big team.

Life will always find a new way to ruin everything you know, enjoy the moments of peace to their fullest and prepare yourself for the lemons that are heading your way and you might just make it.


Remember Elk

i was horrible but halo 3 was my first online game ever

Fair play

I was above average, at best. [39 in Lone wolfs - rarely played any other playlist.]

I would probably do better today, but I can't try it out, since the the population is around 7k, so I can't find a game that doesn't lag.

Yes you can.

RIP Logan ~B.B.

I certainly improved a great deal over the course of Halo 3. With my teammates, we could at least be competitive with just about anyone. Picked up over a thousand steaktaculars, so did a good share of winning games by a wide margin. I also had 10,000 wheelman medals, so a pretty descent warthog driver. For a long time, I was also in the top 10 for MM Hornet kills. Was back and fourth with Tseng Mao up for #2 at one point, but I eventually got sick of BTB and shifted more to the 4v4 lists.

I'd say that by the end of Halo 3's reign, I was pretty good. Didn't fit in so well among the very top tier, but good enough I could play among them and not get too many complaints for holding them back.

Playing it frequently right now. It's frustrating to play right now cause the scrubnauts wont veto AR starts in Social Slayer.


You probably don't know how to use the AR efficiently. I was like you for maybe 1.5 years into release.

  • 12.07.2012 8:20 AM PDT

I wasn't anything special, but I didn't take it seriously for over a year. I improved quite a lot once I did start playing properly instead of messing around though.

I'm from central Europe. Every match that I play without ¨prefer good connection¨ is literary unplayable, due to lag.

I can't even find a match when I set the ¨prefer good connection¨ settings on.

I would probably be better if I want back considering it's been over 2 years. I have no intention of buying the game again though.

I live in Europe as well, and I find non laggy matches all the time.

I guess you're lucky.

I wouldn't search without ¨prefer good connection¨, after experiencing so many laggy matches, recently.

My K/D was pretty decent, I think my W/L was average. I never really got Lvl 32 though. Each halo seems to be easier. I easily get 20+ in SWAT in Halo 4 now. I have to try much harder in Halo 3 although that's probably because it's ranked.

I still play Halo 3 after reach and Halo 4 came out. I still play quite well. The original arena style gameplay of Halo will never leave me.
I was a fool who sold Halo 3 to get Halo Reach.

*sigh*

I was so foolish.


I could never and would never sell my halo 3. I still have my perfect condition limited edition case and disc. I have two copies of ODST because it has the mythic discs with all halo 3 maps on it (yay for cheap used copies of odst lol).

yeah I love Halo 3 that much. The day the servers are shut down is the day I stop playing Halo 3. It will be an awful day ... so many good memories from halo 3 and memories still being made each time I get on and play with friends.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

Nah.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

I was a Brig, not as good as some, but better than most.

  • 12.07.2012 9:00 AM PDT

I wasn't bad, but I wasn't good.

I spent most of my time in custom games anyway.

  • 12.07.2012 9:04 AM PDT

"There's a very fine line between not listening, and not caring. I'd like to think that I walk that line every day."

Above average

5,000 games of Matchmaking will do that to an inexperienced player

I knew how to use the AR, I'm just more comfortable using the BR. I get AR starts and I might go +7, I get BR starts and I go +22. I hate using the AR, and it pisses me off when people just look at the map when it comes to vetoing. Yes, I love The Pit, but I'm going to veto it in a heartbeat if it doesn't say Team BR's next to it.

I liked to think I was good. Nowadays, I'm nothing short of rusty.

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

I was bad, then I was really awesome, then I sucked again (blame reach)

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

I was pretty decent. I went in alone most of the time and I feel that held me back a bit cuz playing with randoms in any Halo I play is like playing with 3 year olds..
