Is my luck that bad or do you guys have problems with quitters?

I wanna play Halo, but I can't. I feel like I have the worst luck ever because every game I fkn play I get at least two teammates who quit. This is so fkn annoying..

I watch other people play and even if they're losing by 30-0 in Team Slayer, nobody quits. If my team is losing 9-8, my entire team decides to quit leaving me alone. It's been like this since Halo 2..

I'm a competitive player, but I wasn't going to play Halo Reach seriously. It was the game I was going to play for fun but apparently, I'm not allowed to have fun with Halo.

No, I never brag about my skills. I'm fully aware that not eveyone plays games competitively and just play them for fun. I don't expect everyone to be great, I don't ever complain in game because all that does is make people not care. Negativity does nothing but hurt the team.

In Halo, I rarely ever talk. The only time I say something in Halo is callouts or if I'm asking for help. For example, in Halo 3 I'll say "I'm going for rockets, can someone help me get them incase I die"

I'm not a jerk. I'm actually one of the few competitive people left who understand that being competitive does not mean 24/7 trash talk or putting down your teammates. I don't need to boost my self-esteem by telling someone they suck.

EDIT: Also, I don't play Halo 12 hours a day. When I played it, it was only about 4 a day. Being competitive doesn't mean you play it all day by the way. Most Halo 3 pros for example only play about 3-5 hours a day.

Hopefully it's good. I never actually played a KoF game but I did play Capcom vs SNK 2 which I loved and it looks very similar.

I tried getting into BlazBlue, but I just couldn't get into it. I hate "three-button" fighters, never liked them at all.

[QUOTE="racing1750"]Neither game is out. And COD will outsell it without a doubt. Not to mention COD will be on the XBL charts way after MOH has dissapeared...SparkyProtocol

Call of Duty 4 came out in 2007 and it's still in the Top 10. World at War was released in 2008 and still Top 5. (Was 3rd last week)

Sure a new CoD gets released every year, but the games don't just get thrown away. CoD will outlast MoH, it will outsell it. Will it be the better game? Probably not.

Like:

all abilities excluding stalker (i think they tried a little too hard to make it balanced, and as a result, although it is fair, its not that fun to use IMO)

pistols(F**k yeah!)

Needle rifle (everyone seems to say DMR is better, but given the choice I'd go for Mr. Needle)

Assassinations(No reasoning needed)

Covy Slayer (Plasma pistol EMP to needle rifle headshot FTW)

Dislike:

Health(i understand its going back to good ol' Halo 1, but honestly, i never go looking for healthpacks and frankly i never will, it just seems a little pointless to me)

Grenades(they seem to be vital in combat and spammed at the first sign of danger, are often launched merily across the map to achive kills on fully shielded enemies)

Assault rifle(I know its what Halo is all about, but it seems 50% of combat is assault rifle on assault rifle, which although promoting skill, is relatively dull, i would have liked to have seen other balanced weapons that could be chosen between on playlist like slayer, but when bungie brings out the new playlists, we'll see)

Headhunter FFA (I found this a painfull gametype, it was pretty much a load of guys spawning in a circle killing each other, every time you'd kill one, or even two/three in a multikill, youd run straight to the skulls, and before you know it, everyone in the game is spraying you with AR and your dropped as soon as you picked 'em up. ITs reallly not got the gambling element i had hoped for, instead you spend the entire game trying to bank one or two skulls with no avail, then the capture point spawns next to a load of guys, one guy gets luck, snatches a few skulls of some people, and gets two or three kills, then since all the skulls in the game are in this one area, he cashes them, and gets a Skullomanjaro. sorry but thats just my view)

I'm not exactly a Halo fanatic, but dont get me wrong, I love the game...DONT FLAME MY CRITICISM lol

RoslindaleOne

Not flame material. It was well said. :)

Grenades seem to powerful for me compared to the other Halo's. To many people killed me from the grave in the beta. I always (well most of the time :P) avoid them in Halo 3 but not in reach. I'll probably get used to it over time.

Grenades were like this in Halo CE.

I like them as they counter camping unlike Halo 2 or Halo 3 grenades. I could get Oddball, go in a room and get at least 50 points because if you threw grenades in, I could just move to the left or the right and dodge them.

I do know there is a creeping mentality that is spreading, and that is that if a game doesn't have ONLINE MP, it's not worth owning.

It's interesting, and it's not just SW, it's people in our everyday life.

SolidTy

I'm like that.

I see no reason to own a game unless it is an RPG, Fighter or Shooter (with multiplayer)

If I had the money, I probably would buy 4 hour single player games. However, I tend to look for replay value. There's only so many times you can beat God of War 3 on the hardest difficulty. (I use GoW3 since he mentioned it)

It's based on preferences. For me, I like to compete (in all aspects of life, not just video games) so playing fighters and shooters never gets old to me. Well..shooters did get old for awhile because they no longer take any skill and are made so that even blind people can play them. However, I still play 3rd Strike to this day. Some people can probably put 200 hours into a Bayonetta or God of War and only put 10 hours into a CoD or CS.

But then they wouldn't be able to trick people into buying crappy themes :P

Anyway, heres a good place for previewing some themes

http://www.themexbox.com/

Good to see more people know about this site now.

I remember topics like these would go unanswered for days because people didn't know about themexbox.

There should be mandatory stickies on every forum that has 360 on it so there's not 10 topics a week asking "how come I can't preview themes!"

Splinter Cell got a 9.3 at IGN.

Are you really going to take their opinion serious?

Then that means PS3 would lose MGS then considering the next MGS is going to 360, and by your..logic? That would make sense..or I think it would.

Zomg, MGS4 is no longer AAAAe!
