Well, if you sir are pretty good imo you are in measure to chase to finish the kill with one shot. I am not capable of doing this 100% of time so get naded + headshoted mainly.

when you close combat and about to die, just whip a gernade... never fails!

Yeah man! Whip a gernade!

No worries brother. I suck too.

I seriously don't know how these kids aim the sniper rifle so well haha.

Every time I try to use it. If I just push the right analog stick very slightly damn thing does like a 180 turn. My sensitivity isn't even that high. Like 6 I think.

I just stopped playing any type of team game. Mostly because you'll most likely get stuck on a team full of morons. If you don't have a bunch of friends to play with don't try to play teams.

Play Rumble Pit Slayer. Another thing is to watch your radar. Many times you can tell when someone is stalking you and then hide on a corner and flank them.

Also when I first started I made the mistake of going melee happy when people are close to me. Make sure you time your melee hits correctly. Usually you should try to use a gun to down their shields and then run in for the melee attack. Unless ofc your shield are down too

kamel... just dont beatdown... u can get more shots off than beatdowns in the same amount of time and if you are in a dmr fight u really shouldnt be moving forward towards the opponent. Plus the mistake so many are making with beatdowns is that the range has changed drastically from halo 3 to halo reach, a lot of ppl beatdown too soon and miss completely.

Strafe, hide, team shoot, Make sure u use the edges of the maps to walk around (obv going in middle is retarded unless its a specific circumstance) and talk talk talk to ur teammates. and I know the maps have new callouts and its gonna take a while to memorize (even tho its at radar map..) and sometimes you dont wanna use a mic.

In those cases, just make sure u stick with a teammate who has a general idea how to play. If you are not familiar with the map or dont have a mic.. dont be the main slayer, cuz u cant callout obv. be a support player.

If you are following along with someone and they have sniper.. guard them, make sure they dont get attacked from behind or something( using the example for ascention (fuck the new name of it, i dont remember). Travel in packs, close enuf to team shoot, far enuf to not get double killed. Cut the map in half and it will also help.

no reason to get frustrated with yourself or a teammate. If you are doing bad, your team will know, no need to complain about it and if your team is doing bad, if you bitch at them they wont hav ur back. Be positive and not a doucher.

and my biggest thing is.. worry about not dying rather than getting kills.


now, I'm not the best at the game, but that is general sense in any kind of team sport or game, so stick to it and things will work out and maybe u will have some skill. I for one, do not have much skill but I make due by playing smart (or at least i think its smart).

I don't ever run in a straight line at people. I'm not that dumb haha. I usually move back and forth to and from cover until the person needs to reload. Then when I feel they are low on their clip I move forward. The reason I like moving in is because my aim is bad. I only stand a chance if I'm close haha. I can't keep my reticle on the opponent. Every time I try to move it side to side the damn things moves to far to fast. I attempted to lower the sensitivity but then I can't move around as good cause I can't turn fast enough. Wish they'd allow you to set different sensitivities for the two different analog sticks.

And your right about the Melee range. In Halo 3 they almost lunged at the enemy when you melee'd. But in Reach there is no lunge.

Also I been trying to get my Mic to work but I keep getting a message when joining matchmaking saying "Your NAT is not open. You may experience lag during play" but my Mic works when I'm in a party I can talk to all the people in my party... so I don't get it.
