Halo 3 mis-use


And I'm not talking about cheating, griefing, or team killing, or whatever. I'm talking about the mongoloids out there who waste a great game like Halo 3 and only play slayer, or if they're feeling adventurous and social, team slayer. Okay, you mouth breathing jock monkeys, its not 1994. There are other modes in the multiplayer than "kill everything that moves". Its not even clever "kill everything that moves", like rockets only, or only vehicles and pistols, or only sticky grenades. Its "I memorized this map, know where everyone spawns, and where all the weapons are. I will slaughter you to make myself feel better, with no other point kill everything that moves". Assbaskets. With the Forge, an unlimited number of variants can exist on the framework of several very solid modes, such as the standard Capture the Flag, Oddball, a great game of Tag, where the goal is to be "it" for the longest time possible, infection, where you try to spread a plague, Juggernaut and VIP, which are modes based on trying to kill one person, King of the Hill and Territories, where you control an area by having the most people in it, and even good old Assault, which is capture the flag, but one team is on offense, and the other is defense.

Oh, and don't bitch about a mode being "too confusing". How confusing is it to capture a damn area, and keep others from doing the same? Expand your friggin horizons. And please, please please, how about a little strategy when you do lower yourself to gaming on a team with a specific goal? People who answer "What's the plan?" with "Uh, capture the flag, since we're playing capture the flag." should be slapped.
