I'm having a hard time not agreeing with both of you

10/8/2007 4:13:01 PM

understood

this is the probably the same conversation that bungie had when the had to decide what takes precedence and just decided that more kills prevails, in any case.

10/8/2007 4:15:13 PM

im not a campy bitch so i die a bunch. sometimes it works well and i help the team, sometimes i do bad. happens.

10/8/2007 4:44:18 PM

BREAKING NEWS
************

i just figured out by my average kills are so slow - i made a map in forge, btw the map is bas ass and i mean bad ass, and i started several games of it by myself and no one joined so i quit and that added a game to the total of games played with zero kills.

10/8/2007 5:18:12 PM

my stats were for ranked games only..therefore no custom maps or anything...

10/8/2007 5:38:36 PM

that's very very odd

10/8/2007 5:39:00 PM

yea it should be ranked games only...

10/8/2007 5:45:51 PM

i took the total number of games played and divided by the total number of kills that i have. but now that yall mention it, i did the math wrong and can use only matchmaking games as the denominator. with that said, my new average is 8.07, so that better than 6.80 ( i rounded it to 7 earlier)

but i will say in my defense that i have played a lot of team objective games and at times did not even try to fight, but rather went after the objective.

qft, but i think one of the most satisfying things is running up on a campy bitch with a shotgun and tearing through them

10/8/2007 6:42:04 PM

a good campy bitch can avoid that usually. some lvl 24 douche was camping in a game with a buncha lvl 5 equivalents. next game it was a lvl 20 douche on the rocket.

10/8/2007 6:55:16 PM

however, i think to many people jump to conclusions and call people campy bitches way to quick and without reason. ill say im better than a lot of the people i play in match making, and i know i dont camp, i do what i need to at times, but overall, def not a camper, yet at the end, people will call you a camper and bitch at you. i find it hard to really be a camper on the vahilla (sp) map and still have a shit load of kills.

also i think nubs dont understand the concept of radar...thus im a camper b/c of it? i see a red dot on radar, that very second, i start to crouch, and they dont see it, and then when i ambush them, they are like omg camperrrrsss.

10/8/2007 7:05:55 PM

id call being in the same spot squatting on a weapon, but moving enough to avoid easy grenade kilsl being a campy bitch.

10/8/2007 7:15:08 PM

I have 1505 kills in 123 ranked games. so my average is 12ish. but I also have 1486 deaths. so... I'm averaging 12-12. which I think is solid

edit: my social stats are 549 kills and 40 games. and thats 13.75/game

[Edited on October 8, 2007 at 10:14 PM. Reason : .]

i had an average +14 or so ratio the entire night tonight. snowbound is definitely not my level though, couldn't make anything happen there.

10/9/2007 2:07:34 AM

i need a team to slay with

10/9/2007 2:27:53 AM

man i would have never thought that bungie would have had their shit together with h3, the online community, the theater system, forge... and i remember when i said that i was not even going to get this game - not that i thought it was whack but just wanted to wait for cod4 since it will be out next month. the forge was the only thing that made me get it and it turns out that for 60 dollars this is about the best package on the 360 to date in my opinion. goddamn bungie you really did your thing. kudos. but in all honesty, when cod4 hits it might be a wrap for h3 for me, but then again that remains to be seen.

10/9/2007 8:30:44 AM

meh...BEST on 360? I don't know about that

Sure it's fun, and i'll be playing for years...but it's just not the godsend that all reviewers said it was

10/9/2007 9:52:17 AM

i still miss class based warfare, but the vehicles/equipment/items still make it fun.

10/9/2007 11:10:49 AM

I am so addicted to this game, I haven't done heroin for weeks.

10/9/2007 1:37:50 PM

"best" is always going to be relative... IMO it's the best I've played so far though

10/9/2007 1:42:49 PM

not the best game definitely, but the best 'package' to date - the theater, forge, screenshots, file sharing, online community, party system, online campaign, superb ranking/skill system, etc... nothing can match it offers for 60 dollars.

10/9/2007 5:15:27 PM

my social stats are so much better than ranked games. its unreal

10/9/2007 6:06:25 PM

for those who didn't see it yet

" * Big Team Battle matches are now 16-player affairs. * In the Team Slayer playlist, the appearance of Shotty Snipers has been greatly reduced. * Now, when players veto Shotty Snipers, the game that results from the veto will not be Shotty Snipers. * In one-sided VIP matches, the attacking team will now see a waypoint for the VIP they are hunting. * In Lone Wolves, Slayer gametypes will appear more frequently. "

ftmfw IMO

10/9/2007 6:13:12 PM

i dont get why people hate shotty snipers so much.

i think that shit is pretty fun

10/9/2007 6:30:19 PM

halo is a run and gun type game, and the shotty snipers hinder the majority of halo players from doing their thing.

10/9/2007 6:43:34 PM

I'm not good at sniping, by the time I have someone lined up they either move or I get shot in the back

10/9/2007 7:05:10 PM

i'm all for the change...
i hated shotty snipers cause i kept getting it so dang much it got old. i don't like playin the same game 3 times in a row.

10/9/2007 7:47:28 PM

I wish it was snipers only rather than shotty snipers. the no scope sniper battles were way more fun than shotgun ones.

10/9/2007 7:51:25 PM

i like shotty snipers

i don't like it being every other game that pops up

10/9/2007 10:45:02 PM

fucking laggy connection with fucking reglar xbox wireless adapter grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

10/9/2007 11:03:21 PM

if i have a film in my fileshare...is there any way to play it on the computer?

10/9/2007 11:03:36 PM

go to bungie.net and look at your profile, you should be able to access it there

10/9/2007 11:04:59 PM

i played like 15 team slayer matches this evening and didnt get shotty snipers ONCE

thats bullshit man

10/9/2007 11:28:32 PM

^^ I can DL it to my 360...but not my computer...I don't know how that works...I'd like to be able to play and send it from my computer

10/10/2007 12:48:23 AM

I didn't think it was possible to watch it on your computer. I've only been able to queue it to my 360.

also: I did really good tonight with some tww folk

10/10/2007 12:53:33 AM

as far as the shotty snipers go...they said that initially there was a problem in their system and that the game type came up wayyyy to much and that they were continuously working on it to make it less and less common, so team slayer is more team slayer, not a snipers playlist

10/10/2007 12:55:59 AM

as far as i know u can only queue to the 360?
slayer was mad fun tonight

10/10/2007 1:15:19 AM

yeah you cannot play it on a computer... the game doesn't actually save the film. It saves the events/coordinates of everyones movement/actions (or wutever) and then essentially re-enacts the battle for you by using the game engine.

You can select a file for download from the website though and it will queue on your 360 for download where you can watch.

[Edited on October 10, 2007 at 9:25 AM. Reason : a 15-20 minute battle would take up a huge amount of memory space]

10/10/2007 9:24:28 AM

yeah i would think that that is true, since the films are only a few mbs for the most part.

10/10/2007 9:31:51 AM

so if i play later at night i can get a great connection...anyway, i fuckin raped a rumble swords last night, next highest was 13 points. I had 3 deaths and got a couple of good videos/screenshots

fyi, if you throw a sticky across the 'man cannon' on narrows it will land right where a person will land and detonate

10/10/2007 9:52:51 AM

If you have a video capture card you could record it to your computer from your 360.

10/10/2007 9:53:06 AM

^^ if you throw it on your own, it lands where your teammates will land. aka not smart and nubs have already done that to me with the power drainer on my own team.

10/10/2007 9:58:34 AM

i have accumulated 3 steaktacular medals - what did i do to get them?

Quote :

"Steaktacular Medal From Halopedia, the Halo Wikia, working on 3,408 articles (Redirected from Steaktacular! Medal) Jump to: navigation, search The Steaktacular[1] Medal is a Halo 3 medal earned by winning a multiplayer game by 20 or more kills. The Description, 'Luke owes you a steak dinner', comes from a Bungie Humpday Challenge where a steak dinner was bet over a game, in which Will bet that he could beat another team, led by Mike, by at least 20 points. He lost 50-5[2]. "

10/10/2007 10:06:25 AM

throw it on your own and kill your teammates? i don't understand what you're saying, but i can see that a grenade would kill teammates if it landed in the same area as they did.

that's an idea for the power drain though, throw it across with a grenade, lol. i actually used the drain followed by a grenade to get a quick kill on someone who was running away from me, pretty effective

10/10/2007 10:17:25 AM

I have 10 in social and 4 in ranked. does that include like 20 points of oddball?

10/10/2007 10:20:20 AM

if someone jumps in the cannon on one side, and you throw a sticky grenade in the cannon on the other side, does it stick?

10/10/2007 10:25:25 AM

I've collided with a player mid air... It was kinda of funny, we both mele'ed each other and just fell straight down. so maybe the sticky-cannon combo would hit someone coming across too.

10/10/2007 10:37:37 AM

whenever I threw a frag through the man cannon, it doesnt even make it halfway across. maybe I wasn't throwing it properly

10/10/2007 10:38:22 AM

the only thing more nubsauce than you wolfweb guys is bungie's lagging website that cant update ones games until 24 hours after they have happened.
