Have you ever had a game in Halo PC that just went completely well? Done something really kickass? Had a great time? Actually had a game without teamkillers? Want to talk about it? Well, here's your perfect opportunity. Let's just talk about great HPC games and moments.
Earlier today, I was on a really great server. Legit players, only about two teamkillers, and they got banned, we did lots of games. I stayed for five games. First was Team Slayer on Sidewinder, then Team Slayer on Death Island, then CTF on Danger Canyon, then CTF in Gephyrophobia, and finally Slayer in Infinity.
Sidewinder was okay. Not great, but okay. This one had the teamkillers. I'll even tell you one's name. Skeetles. That was him. Going around, cussing, typing in all caps, teamkilling, and he got banned. One time, I was being cautious, in our base, with a rocket launcher, and everyone was teankilling. I was in one of the ladder chutes. I was cautious, because if they saw me with a rocket launcher, they'd all go for me. Suddenly, "Crunch!", a teammate kills me. Nice. But, all and all, not a lot happened on that game. I made 6th.
Okay, Death Island is FAR from my favorites. One of my least, actually. But this wasn't that bad of a game. I mean, it had its cons, but wasn't too horrible. Unfortunately, Banshees and Scorpions were on. Damn. I don't remember much up until one point. I respawn in the base, and see one of our blue guys teamkill someone, and dashes through the Shade teleporter. I chase him down, chuck a nade at him, gun him down with my pistol. He says "WTF?!" And I tell him "Don't betray!". He replies, the genius he was, "He was in my way!", and I say, "So what? Jump.". He dropped it. I run off, on top of the island, a banshee closes in on me, shooting me, my shields go out, I jump off on a small elevated strip of land. He thought he had killed me. Sucker. Gun down a guy with my pistol. Wait for some people. I mainly hide, due to banshees. I jump down, grab a flame thrower, then a rocket launcher. Hop in a ghost, go to a base, with a bunch of teammates with me. There was me in a ghost, a guy in a banshee, a guy in a scorpion, and a guy in a rocket warthog. Good! Some artillery! The banshee takes to the skies, taking other ones on. The others and myself stay down, getting infantry, until the game ends.
CTF on Danger Canyon. This was better, but not the best. Actually, I forgot, this one had a few teamkillers on it too. But some great moments to drown the crap out. One thing that was good for me, is as soon as the game started, I hopped in the chaingun of a warthog. Almost made a killing spree in two minutes. Got in a ghost, made a few kills. There was one guy on the balcony, sniping everyone, but he didn't get me. Got to red base, only to find the flag gone. One of our guys had it. (I was on blue all the games) So one guy spawns, hurls a grenade at me, I'm almost dead, I think "Screw this", and I run in the tunnels, chuck a frag, kill the guy, run into the big red and blue room, a red guy is shooting at our guys on my balcony, I run up behind him, coldcock him (my term for asssasination), and shout "Watch your motion tracker!". But, unfortunately, I was suddenly, mysteriously, unexplainable killed. Happens a lot. Don't you hate that? When you suddenly die? It's not sniping, because I'd hear the shot go by, and I'd see the trails. But, anyway. I respawn, and decide to go on infantry. Run, swap my assault rifle for a plasma pistol, a teammate nades me, and kills me. I get angry, but not much. It wasn't like I had a rocket launcher. I respawn, grab another plasma pistol, a teammate runs up to me, hits me for no reason. I guy I didn't even know was on the team. He hits me, my shields go out. If you know me, you know I don't take kindly to friendly fire. So I gun him down with my assault rifle. He's like "ZOMG, WTF, Y U KIL ME?" I said "You attacked me!". He says "I DINDT KILL U!", and I say "You almost did!". And he drops it. I get teamkilled AGAIN, by someone else, for no reason. Then I got pissed off, and let loose a few swears. There wasn't much after that. I made first
CTF on Gephyrophobia. Man, this one was GOOD. First thing I do, I grab a ghost, mow down a red guy. Run to red base, take out a few guys on infantry, hover in, jump out, grab the flag, and escape. No one was there. Lucky me. I go as fast as I can to blue base, and one teammate is in my way, I strafe to dodge him, he strafes my way, I figure he was just dodging too, but went the same way as me. I strafe AROUND HIM, and he still goes in front of me. Then I saw the picture. Classic trick. Play it out so I can only teamkill you, then get all pissed off about it. I accidently teamkill him dodging him. Hey, it was his own damn fault. I return the flag. So what now? I go again! It was somewhat later, and someone else had also taken the flag. Him and I were both going at the same time. It was a race to get the flag. I hover into the base, see a bunch of blues and reds fighting, they don't notice me, and I cap the flag again. Oh, this was great. I use this quick maneuver to get it and go. You know how the Gehpy bases are, right? The ramps in the back, and the area sticking out with the flag? Okay, I go up the ramp, floor it down the little segment sticking out, hop out, grab the flag, fly off, hop in the ghost again and leave. I had no shields left to so much damage. I'm constantly being hightailed by a banshee, I go into our base, quickly, and survive on my last health block, only to find, our flag isn't there! I run up to the flag holding thing, hear the "beep beep beep!" noise, and shout "Crap!". Luckily, the flag was returned seconds later, and I won us the game, in first place!
Finally, Slayer on Infinity. I was only there for a short while, five-ten minutes, but I still made it into first place before I quit. It was great. Five games, loads of fun, a great time. Yep. How about you? Any great things happen to you in HPC?
