Death bonus suuuuucks. You can't do a damn thing when you have 10- sensitivity. I am a slow starter, usually getting killed a lot in the beginning, then adjusting and hopefully going on a tear to win. With "death bonus" that is shut down. It works against you. You go so fast, you have no precision in jumping or shooting, so you just suck harder and harder. I hate it.

Get rid of Rocket tracking for Halo 2. Don't take in that lowest common denominator crap the marketing people are cramming down your throat.

16 players, invisable players, no radar, no objective marker, seek and distroy, put it on pistols but tell everyone all they can do it smack, any map but it has to be small. Its actually really fun you don't know who your killing and there are always blurs passing by on your map, you always go for any blur hoping its your objective.

Me and my friends had a plasma weapons only game in Hang ‘Em High. 100% health, shields, and infinite grenades. Well, the plasmas got boring, so we turned it into a grenade-only game. Y’all should try that. It’s so fun.

The worst, by far, was a CTF game in Sidewinder. 50% health, no shields, respawn time growth, 10 second suicide penalty, and it was 5 captures. Man, I don’t know how, but that game was like watching old people screw.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

400% shield, Invisible players, limited grenades, 50 kills, Wizard. The longest damn match I've ever played. It was also the most boring.

1 vs. 1 CTF Blood Gulch NO VEHICLES! The one that spawned closest to the teleporter is guaranteed to win.

The worst by far was at a LAN 2 weeks back. I think it has to be the worst setting possible. If you want your friends to get really frustrated play:
Boarding Action
No Radar
No Indicators/Nav Points
Race 15 laps
400% health
All invisible players
Plasma weapons only
Respawn Growth
Suicide penalty
Death Bonus/Kill Bonus
We played with 6 people. As soon as the game started and we found out those were the settings I immediately knew the best strategy:

1. PUSH START
2. PUSH DOWN (D-PAD)
3. PUSH 'A'

The triple 'P' strategy, it never seems to fail me. :)

Add rockets only and 50% health and it's complete chaos. It's nothing like boarding action like the above though.

I call it "Snipers"

50% Health
No Shields
Respawn 15 seconds
Suicide Penalty 15 seconds
Respawn Time Growth 15 seconds
Only Sniping weapons (Pistol and Sniper Rifle)
Unlimited Gernades
Unlimited Invisbility



BUT BEWARE

It's complete hell. Play on Sidewinder for the wonderful screams of agony and thoughts of suicide from you and your Halo buddies.

Subject: boring fights

I was awesome that last game!...I'm pretty sure the other team finally realized I've been running in guns blazing living on a hope and a prayer...cause now I'm dying more..haha

'sigh' its so boring round here...i cant find a decent match. All i get is peaple who stand there stare right at me and turn around and fire at a wall. So i might as well just put a monkey at the controls. I mean these two guys chalenge me 2v1 i exepted it. And what do i get? 50 kills to 3 kills. What kinda match is that? Oh and just i case i got the 50. Now what can i get target practice on if my target will just fire into space? Its like firing at a statue. Besides i dont have anyway to play a higher game i mean ive want to go and compete in a turnament but it just aint happinin. But it be worth it even if i did lose. But here im glad to keep my title of The Legendary Fighter. Its kinda corny but what the hell. If thats what they think of me so be it. I really dont care. But to the rest of you happy battles!Join my group!
Best of the Best

you know a fun activity has been planned..One the eighth level. Now i dont wanna type the whole thing so listen up. Eighth level, shotgun-plasma pistol. Go through the covanent and bla bla bla then when you come to the last door, LISTEN CLOSLY, go up to the panel click X THEN PRESS X AGAIN "WHEN THE ORANGE BARS ON THE PANAL DISAPEAR!"Then as a reward there should only be an elite and a jackle. Itll be mighty handy when fightin on legendary becouse there wont be any enemies untill you go up to the what i would call the launch pad in the side of the mountain.THERE ARE SIDEAFFECTS.there will be no music for the rest of the level unless you beat it reset it or turn off your X-Box-P.C.and if you want a fight later you can always go back up and press X on the panel again. then the whole load will apear.enjoy.
