Well, I won my next game inadvertently and got my 48 back. And then won the following match. Now time to win at least 20 more to get to level 49.

Final Boss just got dominated. wow, looks like they were not in any form to play.
Are they out or in the loosers bracket now? I forgot about MLG today, I was busy doing other things so I totally forgot.
 
Yeah, they're out. They'll play a consolation match for 5th place. sadface

On the plus side, we finally get to see Triggers Down v Instinct, I think coming up next.
 
Not dead. Tomorrow should be sweet, even though sifting my email and voice messages at work will be like panning for petrified turds.

It's coming for me soon.

But seriously, Halo 3 is my first Halo game and I feel like I've spent all the time since release learning the weapons and all that. I didn't know how to use a BR until January or February and just recently I've started to feel comfortable with the sniper. I'm curious to see what my stats would be like with a fresh start.

one problem = pay 400 points to play against people of a lesser skill then you. people would abuse it.

Not that big of a problem since the day you buy an account and go into a social game you can get matched against level 50's. And in ranked games you can too if they are 1 in a new playlist they haven't played yet.

Systems all fucked up. Needs fixed.

God dammit, Total.:lol :lol

Eazy, make this into a .gif if you want. It is a perfect "you fail" .gif.
I like how his body is juggled by the Chopper for a few moments after, just to rub it in.

Wow, Urk. Just back from vacation, a million things to do, and you're converting a backlog of clips for us. Someone give this guy Recon. Again.

Speaking of which: I had to literally go back and review the film to find out what happened here. I knew there was a guy up there - some of my team mates were firing up there and being fired upon - but it was a crazy firefight so I just threw blind.

It worked out well.

I was just playing the campaign on Heroic, and I realized that I'm completely dreadful with this game, just as I am with GTA IV (I had over 150 failed missions in GTA IV). In Sierra 117, I had just arrived at the area where a gravity hammer wielding brute resides when I was completely halted. I have died about 10 times already just trying to pass through this area. There are like... 5 or more snipers shooting at you from all directions... and they've managed to kill me every time. I strafe back and forth, I try to take cover, but nothing works.

How do I get better? :( I want to like this game... but I feel like I'm just unfathomably bad at video games. It's strange, when I used to play Nintendo games only, I was fine. I actually was pretty dominant in Metroid Prime Hunters if I recall correctly. >_> But I haven't been able to adjust to the difficulty in some 360 games. Maybe my coordination or concentration has gotten worse. I don't know... maybe I need to become a casual...

What difficulty are you playing on?

He reveals this in eighth word of his post.

Do you have a long or mid-range weapon? The first time I got there, I had a Brute Shot and Needler. Took me the better part of an afternoon to clear that ending. If you don't, work your way down around the right hand side. There's a path with cover. From there, eliminate the ground troops, using buildings as cover. You should get a Carbine or two with which to fight the snipers.

I almost always stay on the high overlook with the sniper and methodically drop the Jackal snipers before I engage on foot. If you wanted, you could even wait for the Brutes and their Chieftain to put themselves in a precarious position before dropping down into the facility proper.

Everytime the dudes say Puckett, I always think he is saying something else...:D

Those Foundry maps are confusing as hell.
 
I played alongside a couple of guys who used Straight Rippin's strategy on Construct KotH.

Needless to say it was breathtaking.

and wow, that Domino guy seems like a real jerk
