Halo 3 issues...

We lost 3-1, because one of us managed to sneak over and steal their flag while they were trying to get ours…(later matches all ended 3-0 from their same cheap tactics) But one thing I noticed was that these people had such a set routine, always taking the same path, always blindly throwing a grenade from the same spot behind cover, always landing it right on the flag…is there any point to playing a game if you repeat the same exact thing over and over again?

 I bet if I could have gotten my hands on some mines I could have had a 20+ kill streak just planting them on that same path these little snots always took. But they also had a very cheap style of camping for those who were not on the rush. They would take one of their own vehicles, and severely damage it, and park it in the middle of nowhere…then camp with a rocket launcher or Spartan laser from a distance, wait till someone jumped in it and BOOM, 1 kill.   I understand the strategic strengths and weaknesses to camping, but to go to this length to score a single kill in a match where the deaths/kills were easily 20-30 per person, it was a waste. And these people were maxed out on experience so it’s not like they needed the boost.

Anyway, I did give the COD WaW beta a shot…and personally, I LOVE it. it feels a bit more dirty, bloody, I feel like I’m in the action a bit more than I felt from COD4. Now that’s not saying I didn’t like 4, or that I won’t continue to play it online, but World at War has that “in the action” feel that I loved from COD 2 and 3 (not as much from 3). I can’t wait for this campaign….and for the return of my favorite weapon, the Bren LMG.
