OK, I have been playing Halo since the day it came out and I just dont get how it is that I can be the first one to start shooting somebody but yet be the one who gets killed. How much do shots to the head matter in Halo, Halo 2 or Halo 3. Even with weps like Shotty's and SMG's, it seems that you have to hit the head to win the one on one matches. Is this right or is it just bad luck on my part?
There is definitely some sort of vital points in the game becasue I know exactly what you are talking about. i will unload on a dude and then in a second I am dead.
The trick is to throw hella grenades. Shoot, throw grenades, shoot some more. That's usually my strategy. Also those brute grenades....Those are the freakin best thing ever. I feel like a Cherokee indian with a tomahawk, throwing into the back of some unsuspecting spartan.
unless ur playing against really good people who r double shotting n stuff, the reason they kill u is cuz u suck...basically just use the BR and shoot at the head 4 shots and the kill is urs not that hard
Head shots do more damage then torso shots with a weapon that fires a single projectile ie. bullet. A close quarters shot to the chest with the shotgun is a one shot kill. A sniper round to the head is a kill while it takes atleast 2 to the torso to kill. In other words shot placement matters but it always has in Halo since the begining.
On reticle speed, i have mine at 10. I've played on high sensitivity as long as i can remember....it just makes it all the more satisfying when people think you're modding because you can turn around so fast.
you have to be fast, and you have to evade, have very good anticipation.

When i play, even if someone starts shootin at me from behind, i still have enough time to turn all the way around, find them, and kill them in 1 clip while theyre reloading onto their second. I also usually battle waves of guys, without dying. Mostly on terratories, i guess some people just "understand" halo while other people just play it.Â
i aim for the chest and then work my way up. yeah i still have those moments where i unload a clip but the guy ends up killing me even though i shot first and im POSITIVE i hit guy enough to kill him. the thing is his friends might be shooting at you from the back. when i played the beta, i always get 2 on 1 odds for some reason. or even sometimes, me against 3 other people. lol but the game is really fun and i hope halo 3 doesnt get ruined like halo 2 did, community wise.

that sounds like an awesome idea!... I remember reading about a spartan twirling a knife around in one of the halo books... it would be awesome if you could throw projectiles, such as knives or tomahawks that would instantly take a significant amount of damage away...Â
Headshots with projectile based weapons are brutal when shields are down. I'm far from pro, or even good, but common sense tells you to learn to aim for the head.
i believe that the only weapons that matter with headshots are the battle rifle, carbine, sniper rifle, beam rifle and i might be forgeting a few, but everything else can be shot in the body effectively. I play with the default sensitivity.

yes, lol at first i really underestimated the battle rifle and carbine. i still dont like the feeling of the battle rifle cuz i end up running out of bullets JUST when i down his shield. the carbine is great to use, the battle rifle and carbine are probably the weapons to use if you cant get to a sniper rifle.
