Halo 2 online etiquette

Joe Curlee van website insert25.com besloot tweeëntwintig regels te maken hoe je je dient te gedragen tijdens het spelen van Halo 2

Dit zijn ze:

1: Do not cheat

2: You should not 'call weapons'. IE: "I call sword / shotgun / rockets". This is an annoying habit. If you choose to ignore this rule, then you should not get angry when your teammates decide to steal 'your' weapon. Furthermore, you shouldn't betray your teammates and take 'your' weapon away.

3: Never quit a battle. It doesn't matter if you are losing with no hope of recovery, never quit a battle. Besides making your team angry, you might be the host and upon leaving incur the dreaded blue 'waiting for connection' screen for the rest of the players. Also, quitting a game will bring down your overall level more than toughing it out.

4: Do not betray your teammates. Sure it might be hilarious, but it's also annoying and stupid.

5: Do not play loud annoying music in the background. It's a distraction to other players.

6: Do not breath in to your microphone. It's gross.

7: Do not eat food without first moving the microphone away from your mouth. It's disgusting.

8: Screaming and profuse cursing is needless and frustrating. Refrain from both of these things.

9: Racial slurs are the lowest form of insults and show that your level of intelligence is just below that of a slug. Don't use these.

10: Constantly talking when you have nothing to say is stupid. Know when to shut your fat mouth.

11: If someone asks a question: where the enemy is, if a room is clear, if a weapon is at it's spawn point, etc. answer the question. Even if you don't know the answer to the question, replying with a brief, "I'm not sure" or "No clue" will help to avoid frustration.

12: Don't constantly ask questions. Try to stay aware of all important situations, but if you need to know something, then ask... just keep it to a minimum.

13: Do keep your team informed of important developments such as the enemies' location etc.

14: Do not rush headlong in to a group of enemies without one or more of the following: Team backup, Dual weapons, Overshield, Rocket launcher. If you do, it will only serve to raise the enemies' score and lower your teammates' opinion of your IQ.

15: Don't get angry and complain when people use the Battle-rifle Plasma Pistol combo. It's not a glitch, it's not a cheat. It's a totally legal and lethal combo. Instead of complaining, learn to use it yourself.

16: Bragging about accuracy in the post game lobby because it's the only stat you dominated in is just plain stupid.

17: Insisting that the other team won simply because one of your guys left in the last 30 seconds of the game is dumb.

18: If you are going to insult the opposite team, make sure it's a witty, funny and intelligent insult and or comeback.

19: If you are going to trash talk about your skills, make sure that you actually have skills to trash talk about.

20: Don't talk on the phone during game play unless you absolutely have to. In those rare situations, make sure your microphone is muted.

21: If you have to urinate while in the middle of a close match, just go in your pants. You can always clean your clothes and body afterwards.

22: Don't ask what team you are on. If you don't know, press the back button and check where your name is listed. If your name is on a blue background, you are on blue team. A red background means you are on red team. It's a fairly simple concept.

Heeft hij gelijk of moeten er nog wat regels bij of veranderd worden?
