Something to keep in mind...

Posted by David (aka David) Apr 18 '12, 08:18

Don't think of it like a video game. Think of it as a real situation where people would be aiming guns at you. Would you casually stroll out in the open? Of course not. You would stay in cover as much as possible. Halo maps are designed to reward players who do not give their enemies easy shots.

This. And learning a situational awareness - Truman Apr 18, 08:24
What? You mean I shouldn't just run at the enemy kamikaze style? :) - oblique Apr 18, 08:19 18
- That is my style -- nm - J Apr 18, 08:28 17
  - and you wear it well. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 18, 08:29 16
    - I think so -- nm - J Apr 18, 08:31 15
      - I miss your willingness to drive the warthog. - groiny Apr 18, 08:32 14
        
        Question, should I start doing that again - Truman Apr 18, 08:36 10
        
        If you are in any manner not shooting a modest weapon, you're short-changing the team. - Will Hunting Apr 18, 08:45 1
        
        See this is where I disagree somewhat - Truman Apr 18, 09:05
        
        I think your skillset is better suited to open field combat with other weapons. - groiny Apr 18, 08:41 7
        
        The gauss hog and human tank are the only two vehicles I should ever use - Truman Apr 18, 08:44 3
        
        Anyone can shoot those.....that's why you shouldn't. - Will Hunting Apr 18, 08:46 1
        
        True. And yet I can use those to get way more kills than a weaker player - Truman Apr 18, 08:49
        
        My new favorite thing on Boneyard is AL Ghosts. Kaboom -- nm - oblique Apr 18, 08:45
        
        ....as long as I get a chance to gun a bit as well at some point. - groiny Apr 18, 08:43 2
        
        Since I thought of it, question about the Spartan Laser. What's the trick to using it? It seems whenever I pick it up and shoot it doesn't do - oblique Apr 18, 08:44 1
        
        it needs to charge up. - groiny Apr 18, 08:46
        
        That was my favorite thing...as long as the gunner was capable -- nm - J Apr 18, 08:35
        
        ...off a cliff -- nm - oblique Apr 18, 08:33 1
        
        that has always been crash's contribution. - groiny Apr 18, 08:34
