Halo 3 online mutiplayer beta.

OMG! how could I forget about this!?....

Playing vs. Gib's team last night on a one bomb setup. I pick up the big orange mine and throw it down into the back-passage of the base but it hits the wall funny instead and then rolls out of the base like a cheap wheel trim, then Gib drives round in a mongoose at crazy speed right into it! >< I'm friggin loving the 'accessories' on this game.

Also people complaining about being crap: I'm crap with the most conventional of weapons (ALL rifles, basically) so I now have a routine in place for each map where I will go and claim my favourite weapons. I'm usually happy with the shotgun, plasmas + energy drainer.

What time are you dossers on this tonight then, eh? ;p

Missed out on playing completley over the weekend! Should be on tonight to be a bullet magnet!

ETA 20.00 for a good few hours... I have yet to find a killing method more satisfying than landing a spike grenade on someone holding onto the back of a Mongoose as it flies by.. I smiled

I love the spike grenades, due to my general lack of accuracy a panic fling with them has saved my skin a couple of times!

Whenever I pick them up I always switch to them... cant throw them as far as the normal nades but they are so satisfying to use. Also starting to come around to dual wielding Spikers, they just chew into shield and armour like they are nothing.

For all those Halo noobs out their there is hope honestly because me (as a Halo noob) won my first rumble pit game last night, on snowbound, and i was over the moon - so much so i uploaded it i guess the players i was against wern't great but it still gave me a great sense of achievement.

this game is so rewarding and yet also frustrating @ the same time, but im totally addicted. I love beating peple down, was really bad at it at first, i guess getting the timing/distance just right takes some getting used to.

How i wish i'd given Halo2 multiplayer more of a chance back in the day. It's gonna be such a painful wait till Sept when the beta ends.

What really stuck out for me last night was the progressively advancing usage of the gadgets - i.e using the bubble shield as a "wall" when retreating to the beach doing 1 flag CTF on high-ground !

FANtastic !

Had some good games today, I'm still really enjoying it.
Nice to play with some new people, even if they don't know where to take the flag , no names mentioned :P

i know where to take it - behind the rocks, and hide, and hope no one notices
i was a bit
still it gave everyone a

That was another moment of my genius, thankyou.

I'll keep an eye out for you all, it would be good to play with 'friendlies' and will probably feel more like a team game.

[Yoshimax]

Depends on your definition of "friendlies" Expect massive dollops of swearing & name calling - All in a "friendly" fashion of course

I've only had a chance to play this once, where Yosh kept gunning me down with that damnable shotgun >_< Didnt play it over the weekend T_T
I want to play, just not with random yanks >_<

it's interesting to learn that even so much Halo-experienced gamers claim to be crap at the Halo 3 MP Beta. maybe gamers should start blaming the game and feedback Bungie about it. i mean we are all Beta-testers in the end and Bungie needs our opinion to be able to make the MP game more fun for everyone, right?

I was RUBBISH when I played (very hung over) on Saturday. Now feeling better and have done loads of work so am getting on this now! Anyone around?
