Once Lord Mantis, my brother, me, and some other guy was playing Halo 2 in a skirmish game against another team of four. It was a capture the flag game and our team was on the offensive.
We rushed their base with a Warthog while Lord Mantis had the rocket launcher. As the rest of us got off the Warthog to get close to their flag, Lord Mantis managed to misfire his rocket and killed himself as well as the unknown member of our team. Well this guy on our team was pretty livid about it.
He started talking all kinds of trash like, "You obviously have no idea what you're doing." And, "Next time, just leave the rocket launcher where you found it. You suck." And so on....
So all four of us were killed at the enemy base and had respawned at our starting locations. Lord Mantis had already told this kid to get over it, that we could still manage to get the flag. But the guy wouldn't stop. He was just so mad he got killed by friendly fire. So after Lord Mantis, my brother and I realized he just wouldn't shut up about it, we all decided to turn on him. So suddenly right before we rush the base, the three of us turn on our unknowm team member and beat the crap out of him. It was marvelous.
After that he got so mad and kept talking lots of trash. But every time he respawned, we just killed him again. Then finally the Warthog respawned next to us. So I got in the driver's seat, my brother in the passenger seat, and Lord Mantis took the mini gun. I quickly went in reverse so the other two could just keep shooting this guy as he ran after us trying to kill us. So after we killed him with machine gun fire, he respawned by us again and I floored it forward to run him over.
I had never heard so much swearing in my life. He told us we were being totally immature, and we probably were. But he just couldn't let that whole rocket launcher thing go so we had to teach him a lesson.
After killing the guy repeatedly for a few minutes, we heard the other team start complaing at us. "Where the fuck are you guys? And, "Come on you fucking pussies!" And so on...
I told the other team we were having some internal problems and would come get their flag as soon as possible. The other team got impatient and came over to us and starting killing us. We were too busy killing our unknown teammate otherwise we might have fought back against the other team.
Strangely enough, that unknown team member could have booted us from the game for multiple betrayals. But he just wouldn't. It was one of the funnest times I ever had playing Halo 2.
I have other memorable Halo moments, but I was hoping first that some others had some good stories to tell.
Ya, I've only played Halo at parties so you might find it boring.
We were playing this map (Halo 2) where the game mode was slayer. It was 1v1 and we both had banshees. I think it was the map with the two forts. So then we take off and start shooting each other, but we missed all the time. So basically the most damage we did was from ramming each other and not firing the turrets.
Then, I held back the green "a" button and my banshee did a backwards summersault and while coming back up from the dive I hit the underside of the banshee my opponent was in, and miraculousy it exploded. My friend stood there gawping at the television.

It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.

Hehe, yeah that map is fun. Did you ever kill yourself in a Banshee by accidentally pushing the button that ejects you from it while in the air?
Quote from "NoExplanation" »
Well you didn't teach him anything. Just another ignorant idiot, not being able to see what is right in front of him. Good job.
Any sticky grenade kills? That would be a highlight..
That would've been great, but that map didn't have the sticky grenades.
Not kill myself, but have the banshee explode from a rocket from down below.
Oh, I know. I'm just wondering if anyone else ever (commonly) did that. I'd always try to fire its torpedoes and eject myself from the Banshee instead.
As for ejecting from a Banshee, I don't think you can die from falling in Halo 2. In Halo 1 you could do it though.
I do happen to have a good Banshee story though. It was that same map with the two bases, Blood Gultch. It was a capture the flag game that we'd been playing for a while now and it wasn't going very well for us. This guy was flying around in his Banshee killing everyone before we had a chance to do anything. It had been decided before hand that I was going to do the sniping in this particular game, but the jerk would always be able to find me no matter where I went to hide.
That's when I got an idea. I spawned, quickly ran down to the base, and jumped into the Banshee there. No one had been using it because whenever the jerkoff from the other team's Banshee got damaged he'd go and grab ours. I was lucky it was still there. So, I fly out as fast as I can, low to the ground so that dude will hopefully not notice me, back to where I had died in the rocks. Again luckily my sniper rifle was still there. So, I exit the Banshee, grab my stuff, and as I'm walking back to the Banshee I hear an all to familiar noise. The howling of a Banshee.
I start freaking out thinking he's after me again, so I run and hide really quick. His Banshee is in bad shape again, so he hops out, runs over and steals mine! I was pissed! Next thing I know I'm hopping into his beat to hell Banshee and start chasing him. We end up twirling around each other for a while and I can't land any hits on him, he's way too good. Meanwhile my ship's getting even more beat up than it was when jerkoff abandoned it.
We'd managed to fly over to the dark side of the map where there are lots of cliffs, and I can tell my ship is about to blow. In one last ditch manuever I pull a backflip as he's firing more shots at me, but at the last second I ejected. I was pretty high in the air, and I can see his Banshee coming toward me. Out of desperation I hold down the X button as I fall right down on top of dude's ship and steal it from him!
Of course he falls down to the ground while I fly away after making a kick-ass mid-air steal. That's when I notice him going to get into the beat up Banshee that I had jumped out of. To add insult to injury I fly around and blow the thing up right in his face, then turn around and kill him to death with my ship's ray guns.
That was one of the most awesome things I've done in that game. I've never managed to get that lucky again though, and I think we did end up losing that match. Still, remembering that whole thing makes me smile.

That's incredible. Wish I could've seen that. It's things like that that made that game so fun. Whenever the unexpected happened, whether you won or lost the game, it was still fun just to have something unusual happen.
That must've been pretty intense in the last moments you were fighting that guy.
Siaynoq no one gives a shit. This thread is pointless and should be deleted. Who cares how well you did on a game? get a life i mean really...
This guy cracks me up.
Anyway....
There was this other time when none of my friends were online, so I was just in Team Slayer games with people I didn't know. And so our team was doing pretty good in kills about four minutes into the game. But you know how if your team starts getting too far ahead in kills, often times the other team's players will start dropping out of the game?
Well sure enough, the other team lost a player, so our kills were really getting high, especially this particular guy on our team who had an energy sword. Then another player left, and eventually a third. So it all came down to four of us against one guy who obviously couldn't accomplish much against our team at this point.
Now I'd been on the opposite end this kind of situation before. Where all three of my teammates ditched me and it was just me against four other guys. So obviously, my heart kind of went out to that other guy all by himself. And what made it worse, was the guy with the energy sword was boasting for some time about how he was on this amazing killing spree. He needed just one more kill to get a killing spree of 25. So as we were searching for our target, this guy on the killing spree kept telling us over and over to let him kill him to get the 25 killing spree. It was kind of getting on my nerves.
There's really nothing to be proud of with that kind of killing spree if it's four against one. I assumed our target had been crouching for some time, staying under the radar. That's certainly what I would do. Either leave the game, or just hide until time ran out. Why give the other team the satisfaction of slaughtering you?
So after we ran all around the place looking for him, we eventually were all just standing there. The guy on our team just wouldn't shut up how he had to find this guy to get 25 consecutive kills. My other teammates weren't really excited for him either. We were all just kind of like, "Yeah." And "Uh huh."
Right about when we were gonna start looking for him again, and he just kept on acting cocky about his killing spree, I decided it was high time to end it. So while casually standing next to him, I meleed him a couple times. I would have stuck him with a grenade, but it seemed more appropriate to melee him since he was walking around with the energy sword. It was very satisfying to kill him. After that he just kept yelling and swearing at me, calling me all these different names. I just couldn't stop laughing. As soon as I had killed him, my three teammates all turned on me and even managed to kill me a few times. But I ejected them from the game as a result. All the while hearing this cocky guy just get so pissed off at me. It was great.
Do you remember when you kept saying in that little kid voice, "Hey guys, wanna join my clan?" I couldn't stop laughing at that. Then we just kept saying it every single game to everybody we played with.
I remember how one guy was so annoyed with us in one game, and he ended up being in the next game we played, and he was like, "God, not you guys again."
What about that one dude we met who was screwing around on the other team. It was so funny when he came at us driving that Warhog screaming like an idiot....and then you shot him with a rocket.
I remember when we first learned that the shotgun always beats the sword and how my friend who was always top slayer with a sword would come after me and I would BLOW HIS FACE OFF with the DAMN SHOTGUN. lol. He would yell at me saying things like, "CHEATER!" or "GOD DAMN IT!" or "THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE" or "YOU CAN'T DO THAT". It was good times, he never for gave me and my shotgun. lol.
I also remember the sniping. I'm acutually the best sniper in the town, but I love when they would try to snipe me and I hide, just to pop back out and Head Shot them. Oh, the good times. Or Turf, when four of them just charge down the street and I would head shot all of them getting a Killtactual. Got to love it. Or Foundation, my friend and I taking a corner and looking down both paths with our snipers. Oh, the joyful times.
I even remember Halo's Hang Em' High. That level was the best for our favorite weapon, the Over-Powered pistol. You had to love head shooting everyone with that gun. Hang Em' High we would always be getting that invisiblity and the rocket launcher, once you had that you owned the level. I also remember getting in the hallway with the shotgun and if some one came in, Bang..... Death.
I will miss all of those memories for I have new ones to make in Halo 3.
Thanks.

Turf is a way fun map. I love starting where the Warthog is. I'd always take the turret. If done correctly, you can totally dominate that area. As long as the upper areas are well covered. I love watching the enemy come out of the garage and of course you have lots of time to see them coming out. It's so funny how they give themselves away like that. Then I would just gun them down with the minigun.
Yeah, we would do that. Still do, lol. I'm usually right next to the Warthog with my sniper, killing anything that comes near. I have to keep my number one status of Sniper in my town, so Head Shots come forth.
