In an attempt to be objective, this thread is not about deciding whether Zow sucks or is good, please try to talk about douchebags rather than being them (both sides).
I just lost all ability to use that expression anymore, good job. Also, people who bring 2 guests into a game who have clearly never picked up a controller in their lives. I'm sick of having to carry three people simply because they haven't discovered custom games yet. Granted this is sort of a love/hate thing, because I love going up against someone who has three guests. I've had all my teammates quit and still just destroy them.
THIS GUY what a banshee *****. Played 1 flag ctf and he went plus 60 or something. I managed to deny him the banshee the last round. checked his stats, turns out he has 59,000 banshee kills in matchmaking check for yourself
I think everyone has the right to play the game, whether they're good or bad. Therefore it isn't really considered douchey if someone brings two guests in. If a friend or relative of yours comes over and asks to play, you aren't going to say "Hell no, I don't want my team to be dragged down by someone who doesn't play the game". Then again, I've met more than a fair share of guests who are ****ing idiots. Like on infection not long ago, and a German dude and his guest were on his mic (Kinect -.-). They were screaming. It was going fine, (Before the MM update, 8 players still) I had a rampage. Kicking ass. He decided it would be funny if he walked up and betrayed me. I needed ammo anyway, so I didn't really get angry. Until he did it again. And again. And again. He did it to me 7 times. He then turned to another human and did it to him a good few times too. No boot message for anyone.
its definatly overpowered. I think the banshees "evade" or whatever you want to call it should just be tweaked a bit. Thats the part that makes it so hard to kill. His K/D spread is rediculous. I'd rather be at the rank I am now and play the game than be such a piece of ****. IF they hadn't held on to the flag just to get kills and spawn kill us, i wouldn't have been as pissed... to people like this, they're not having a good time unless the other team is miserable.
I don't normally do this, but with your sig I just couldn't resist, sorry: ridiculous. And yeah, said it many times, the banshee tricks need to be included in the boost charge so that you can't spam them indefinitely, and the bomb needs to be nerfed a little so that it's possible to avoid it, except at close range obviously. The massive radius combined with relatively slow spartan speed just makes it so that the pilot only has to aim in your general direction from pretty much any range and there's nothing you can do. So little skill involved it's not true, just a few tweaks and it'd turn in to a really nice and skilful vehicle. I must admit I've held objective a few times, though it's in spiteful vengeance rather than unprovoked malice. When parties of people have bagged every kill for an opening round, only to have my team utterly deck them when we're on attack, I'm gonna draw it out for as long as possible. Childish? Oh yes, but fun? Most certainly.
I don't think that utilizing a part of the game (even if it is excessive) is really considered a douchebag move. Sure it is incredibly frustrating to those that get destroyed, but you should blame the OP banshee rather than the person that is effectively using it. Just like spawnkilling, it isn't the enemy's fault if they have a good enough strategy to push you into a tiny number of spawns and it isn't their fault that the map is bad and spawns you in the same few spots. Blame bad mapmaking, not the people using it to their advantage better than the losing team.
damn. I'm usually good with spelling. I was angry at the time though I'll admit it has something to do with the map, but still. I wouldn't be pissed if they just won. But dragging out the two rounds they are on attack when they could easily just end it and win is a douchebag move, i'm sorry, but it is. I can understand that they played better than us- but rubbing it in for 20 minutes is unnecessary. I just don't consider that fun.
Oh, well I didn't know that they held the objectives. Yes, those people are huge douchebags because they enjoy taking frustration to a new level to gloat about how much better they are than people. While spawnkilling is justifiable because someone is doing what is necessary to win, spawnkilling a hopeless opponent while ignoring the many chances to end the game (rubbing salt on a wound) is a different story.
Okay, so this guy lI The King II has sent me 9 messages now saying this: Hey You're on Youtube for losing The 1st Round of Offense on Invasion on Halo Reach. Look Up KingMightTry Halo. It should be the first video called Halo Reach- Short Invasion Round. Here's the link: YouTube - Halo Reach- Short Invasion Round‏ Baisically him and a bunch of friends got skunked against me and a bunch of randoms. Now I feel like crap for losing a game because this guy had to rub it in. Can't I just enjoy playing Halo without this? EDIT: Wow, just checked his stats on Bungie. In the vid he claims we are all a higher rank than him (he said mostly warrant officers) but he's a major, has 30 more games than me and less kills. His KD is .01 higher than mine. Don't you hate when people like this brag like this? And of course his Bio makes him out to be "straight gansta" or whatever the young folks are calling it today. In my day we just called'em douchbags.
Guys with hundreds of obviously boosted killionaires. ALSO The score is 49-23. I have 14 kills and no deaths. The other team stinks. I tell everyone on my team (who are my friends) the situation. I get one guy 1shot without taking a hit myself. I pull the trigger for the headshot-game-winner. It says my teammate killed them. My friend tea-bags in front of me. What. An. Asshole.
Guys who will leave their Xbox on matchmaking while they eat or something and just watch the TV while they do so they can boot people who betray them for not playing.
Idiots who throw grenades up the green lift when their teammates are the only people up there. And you're sitting on a perfection. And then you DIE!
Any group who holds an objective rather than scoring so that their banshee ***** team mates can boost their K/D ratio for the rest of the round. These groups are usually ultra high rank parties of 8 not remotely interested in anything other than commendation farming and stat boosting. they don't care if their douche bag abuses make people quit playing reach. Pathetic arse holes who need to discover girls.
Gamesager. Enough said. Agreed. He's one of the few people that I actually take the time to troll daily.
