It is crazy to be watching halo tips for the casual community that many of us learned literally 15 years ago... "don't camp, nades are insane", "some fights are unwinnable, just fuck off", "position is king"... Halo is back baby :,) brings a tear to my eye

A common mistake I’m seeing people do is trying to cap all 3 zones in stronghold, as opposed to locking down 2 zones. Sometimes you have to play ring-around-a-rosey but for the most part if you’re not a well coordinated team you can find yourself holding none of the zones bc everyone was spread out and lost their gunfights. Take 2 zones (preferably A-B or B-C) and just play as defensive as possible
I've been in so many match that feels like people forgot zone b even exist, one time a person from opposing would destroy everyone in my team but none of their teammate go to zone b so I'm just chillin' in zone b until the score reached
the problem with just doing that is that if you defend 2 zones all it takes is the enemy team to coordinate to push ONE point and you're gonna lose that fight, and when they cap that point they'll immediately start scorng and you're not gonna score anything. But if you pushed at the start, with point A, and then win B, then you probably already killed a few of their team and outnumber them, they don't have enough people then to even hope to defend point C, all it takes is one dude to cap it, no need to push so hard for it, and if you have all 3 points the enemy now needs to cap TWO points to start scoring, and you'll start to score faster, it's true that sometimes it makes sense to just defend 2 points, but if you have momentum it really isn't a smart idea to interrupt yourself and let them have one point and then give them a chance to coordinate, use that 10 second respawn window do your advantage, that's 10 seconds the enemy is outnumbered, and even more important: 10 seconds that are wasted by just being defensive
@@thesentry5710 nah as long as you cap 2 points and hard defend B theyll never have 2 points long enough to catch up to your score. B is the key because it usually has quick access to both points. Sure you can go for all 3 but never leave B uncontested.
YES, FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT. This js so annoying. I get so many teamfights on the map with the pillars where the focus rifle is, and they always freaking cap the point at the pillars. It's out of the way and gives you no control over other points. As soon as i tell my team to do this the points absolutely skyrocket.
@@thesentry5710 this is basically never going to be a better strat. I think you're underestimating how well you can keep map control when holding a combination of 2 points.

One mistake I’ve learned is trying to go full Rambo. This means just running straight into the battlefield, hoping to get kills. This will get you picked off quickly. Better to take high ground and wait for opponents.
also, pay attention to where your teammates are, and how many are alive before you push an objective. even in slayer, if you're constantly cut off from your team you're gonna get picked off easily.
I get so frustrated when none of my teammates use any equipment. They will pick up the grapple or other equipment and never once use it until they drop it accidently or get killed, can I finally use it for myself. It grinds my gears.
I feel that too, however sometimes they don't even get the chance to use it before they get domed with a sniper, like what sometimes happens to me as soon as I pick something up
The Hud is simple. I recommend yall listen for the audio queue it makes when you pick one up. If your not learning the pic art then your choosing to not know what your going for or what you grabbed because there the same picture. Just because it's fast and streamlined doesn't mean it's bad mobility is key in fire fights.
More than half the time in capture the flag when I'm carrying the enemy flag my teammates happen to be spread out in the map in their own fights, not a single one comes to back me up as I approach our flag, more than once i'm > 10 meters away from capturing and some dude with camouflage kills me in the back with none of my teammates around to stop them from returning their flag and steal our own

1: trusting 343 with a great franchise 2: expecting game to be complete upon launch 3: expecting halo to remain halo 4: expecting last 20 years of gaming knowledge to be adopted into a game after its 6 year build cycle 5: leaving a beloved franchise after so many good memories to be ruined by fools
Great tips. Couple things i had not thought about, and others i just need to keep reminding myself about, until they become habit. Halo Infinite plays somewhat differently from other shooters and i'm still getting used to it.
Hey thanks for Making Halo Infinite vids. I used to play Halo CE in 2009 when it got released on pc.. And i still love it. Please make a weapon tier list soon for infinite 💙
I learned a lot about being good in games in general when I played Destiny 2, yes it's more choatic but I learned that positions are power, and even when you pursue, always have some cover or route.
I’ve gone flawless in trials countless times but I’m getting crushed in Halo lol. The zoom on the sniper is insane, the ttk is so slow and I can’t adjust to the radar. But I still love this and I’m having a blast even though I’m the blueberry for once.
If you're running from someone around a corner and you have a grapple hook and a ceiling above you. Grapple straight up and when the enemy turns the corner they'll usually start looking behind them that's when you ninja him. I've done this about 5 times and its so damn satisfying
I actually I was watching a video the other day on halo rank multiplayer. Basically they said the best way to rank up in ctf and oddball is drop the objective, and help your teamate cause you be a hindrance on your team since they be outnumber. So you maybe on to something there.
I am literally heart broken that there aren't separate ranked playlists (i.e. - Ranked Team Snipers, Ranked Team Swat, Ranked Team Slayer, Ranked Team Doubles) with SEPARATE rankings. Sadly, I'm not a fan of the current ranked playlist with every game type crammed into one. I had planned on pouring hours of game play into separate ranks. I would have also ended up pouring money into skins if they had separate rankings for separate ranked playlists. :( PLEASE ADD THEM, 343.
It’s really fun but it’s hard going from one fps to this. Im so used to Destiny 2 lol. Im still getting used to the slow time to kill, the insane zoom on the sniper and the radar. This helped though, muchas gracias.
Usually these kinds of videos are trash and while I do generally know all of this either intuitively or explicitly it’s still really good advice and I know a lot of people who could definitely use it because they came from a game like COD where these types of tactics are less important.
10/10 i love the depth of explanation and these tips are very helpful. im plat 1 currently trying to push to diamond and one tip ive learned is teamwork makes that dreamwork baby this isnt solo dolo
If you are wondering when you should disengage go play on legendary you’ll learn very quickly to flank around or just run away. Especially dealing with grenade spamming grunts pushing you into the open for an elite to two shot you.
Three other noticeable mistakes are 1: the people who tend to stray from their teammates. In quick play it doesn't matter as much, but in higher level ranked it makes a big difference. The second is not pinging or at least tracking enemy team. And last is an add-on to the power weapons and utilities, is not keeping track of the utility weapons like the needler, mangler etc.
Stay with your teammates! I feel like there's a lot of new Halo players or vets who haven't played in a long time and forget. This isn't like CoD (not hating, I like CoD) where you can wipe out 3 guys in 2.5 seconds. Also drop the skull to fight! Holding onto it for an extra three seconds before you die isn't helping the team or yourself.
4:50 wish my randoms would understand this, so many times I've been trying to disengage with someone hot on my heals an peppering my back, only for a nearby friendly to not give a shit about them.
Man, I wish they'd bring back the level system from halo2 with the icons. Something about having dope colors around your rank just felt good. I miss that system a lot.
I mean they kind of did with the armors, cores, and flame effects. If you see those then you know they must be atleast of that level. But I do miss the ease of seeing the colors.
@@lostintime4now983 I def agree, its cool seeing the armor effects etc come back, but I will say, kinda sucks that you can just pay for free season pass levels to get the armors etc without having to actually earn them like the old days. Those colors back then were so dang cool, wild how just getting some new colors felt like the pinnacle of gaming back then. Sucked dealing with all the hackers and bridgers though, with dope colors came a lot of sorrow and salt lmao.
fun fact, you can use a melee while holding oddball. in that kitchen room, you can do just as much dps with the melee as you teammates with guns. carrier melee reaches around a corner and one pace to the side. its a lot safer that it seems.
the other is the usage of the AR plus Sidearm/BR. The AR is better suited for chase scenarios where you need to be quick and accurate. The spray and consistency is perfect for targets that moves away from you, sporadically, or around cover. Sidearm and the BR are best when the enemy is in an open space, below you, or approaching you. When being chased and approaching a turn, consider throwing a nade directly at a wall infront of you. the nade will bounce behind you but with a noticable drop in trajectory. it will more or less turn the entire corner into a blast zone and you can still avoid getting hit.
Biggest mistake in halo is being stationary, you gotta move, need to learn the map jumps and how to move around and flank. You need to make yourself small is what I like to say gotta keep moving make yourself a harder target.
Friendly fire is the worst, nothing like getting ran over by your own team. Few connection issues too, nothing like starting a match and seeing part of your team frozen for the first minute while the other half runs off to engage
Best tip I can add is don't run in by urself, always try to stay in teams of 2 at least, iv played so many games and my teammates just don't cover fire of stick together, it's been the downfall to most matches and also, utilise the ping system, it can saves teammates from sneaking enemies
With so many new players in Halo; i have to say, nothing gets me more than players not playing the objective. 6 of my placement games were CTF and not once were these guys playing the obj. Ive seen them run passed our flag instead of resetting it, they dont bodyguard the carriers,and they dont group when the enemy has our flag ,they're just out across the other end of the map doing whatever it is while 3 people are up my ass lol Ive had so many times where i would lose the flag 2 feet at our base and no one was with me to recover it;
I'ma start doing that last one a lot more, I sometimes drop the objective in emergency situations but I'm not consistent with it, thanks for the heads up 👍🏽
Yah I’ve been trying to teach my friends this. I get why they don’t do it but it’s so frustrating to be in a fight and die and see them just cowering in the corner when the opponent is one shot.
A problem I have is thinking that I should just run and gun until I die but make sure I at least disable the enemy's shield before I go. I should really start thinking of living to fight another day... I notice when my shields go down, but I ignore it and either keep shooting at the enemy I front of me or get taken out by another enemy that was close by. I need to change the way I think of playing, I need to take cover, I need to pay attention to my shields, I need to run away whenever my shields are down so I can live to fight another day, I need to take higher ground, I need to be like a real soldier. In the military there's a thing called Individual Movement Techniques or IMT's, part of it talks about concealment and crawling to new cover when there's numerous places that could conceal you or running to new cover when there's too much open space between where you're currently concealed and where your next cover is. I feel like I should apply it to the game... I should look at each map and take note of places that conceal me, take note of how many places there are, how close they are and whether or not I may need to sprint to the next location...
My biggest problem is the ball game, there are aways a noob that just keep walking around looting or trying to kill insted of grab the fkn ball or protect who gets it
one of the biggest mistakes i made, especially in h5 was always adsing and after i figured out how to hipfire weapons well, i *CLAPPED* people. and another for me is not having a proper melee button. on xbox, on infinite, instead of pressing right stick, i mapped it to RB, since i have one of those controllers with mappable paddle buttons near the grips and i also have the left and right bumpers mapped to these left and right paddle buttons respectively. and since i have the melee attached to RB, i can press LB for grenades, and since these buttons are next to the grips, i can keep my middle fingers on these buttons all the time, my palms on the grips, thumbs on t-sticks, and fingers on triggers when needed, allowing me to get a positive KD almost every game, even when we are losing, and having an EXTREMELY comfortable grip on the controller. sorry for flexing if so, but if you have a controller like this, *MAP THE BUMPERS TO THOSE BUTTONS.* i promise you won’t regret it.
One thing that has always gotten under my skin and so many other people is when your teammates aren’t even playing the objective and they’re just slaying
I play so many games where people just ignore camo and ovi. I wish I had a mic to just teach these people how to be aware of controlling pickups and shit cuz games can be won or lost based on shit like that. Down a man ctf on Aquarius camo will make it winnable as Long as you work as a team.
These tips are fit for many games, not just halo. And if i lose my game is because many people don't even know what the objective is and not even attempting to use the radar. Also the ping option is too rarely used (welp, it's in an annoying position in the pad after all).
A fully charged plasma blast from the plasma pistol with destroy a fully charged overshield, AND the base shield. Thats an easy kill cause typically someone withan overshield will think they can push with low risk. Proving them wrong with a plasma pistol and a headshot is super satisfying. Lol
Off to a rocky start. #1 - Incorrect...but also correct. Let's explain. Positioning in Halo Infinite (not Halo 3...this is NOT HALO 3!) is determined by what control you have on the map. Your map presence is VERY important, along with teamwork. If you're chasing the kill "in the open", that's a bad move. However, the important aspect here is the decision being made at this time. If the kill in the open is the final dead, which could create a push to into your base, say for an objective (CTF or Oddball), then you're going to need to get that player accounted for. Leaving a player who was weak or 1-shot go could net you a complete loss for your overall team. It's important to obtain that final kill in as smart of a way as possible. - Scenario - say you're playing Boheemoth and the final player is on their tower, you chase to kill him and you now have good power positioning to get the spawners on their flag low shield for your teammate who is flanking down bottom mid to finish off...but you DON'T want to give up that position. The player you were shooting runs off toward the rocks of their base. You can back up to the edge of the map, maintaining the 'rocks in the way' advantage from the spawners whilst getting the person who was running away. "Chasing" isn't required, but the important part here is the decision at play. There's multiple ways to tackle this issue and some will be better than others. Being aware of the spawners and the enemy team locations, along with what you influence (spawn locations are influenced by location, shots fired or grenades thrown, along with teammate positioning) then you're in good hands. Except if you "don't" chase to kill that player 1-shot and they get away, that allows for a potential 4v4 battle with you being what you think is a good position, but may be easily shot from another position...which that person will go straight to and charge at you from. Response to #1 - "You could get 2v1, 3v1, and just die". This is where situation comes into place. Yes and no. You can if the ENTIRE enemy team is up and looking to help the player low shields. But the important aspect is simply that if you already have a good position, your team is probably in control...so they wouldn't get you in a 2v1 unless YOU go into a bad position to kill the player. So the important take away isn't to "not" chase the kill, it's to do so while playing smart. Be aware of the surrounding teammates, be aware of where spawners may be or where you can be attacked. And attempt to predict the path the enemy may take to catch them at the other side of it. In some cases, some people just hide behind a wall, so my instinct is typically to grenade further past the enemy and insta (that's the first grenade thrown causing the second grenade to go off) the player attempting to flee. - Also being in an open space is going to be required at times. Not every map has 'natural cover' in every given scenario. The important aspect is to know where on the map you could be getting peaked from (the angles) and attempt to stay out of the peak spots for where the enemy is roughly at. You can utilize this technique as well to traverse faster on the map, WHICH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT of this game. Map presence & damage = key. You partially note this @ 1:39, however this is the most important part. To stray people from pushing will cause them to be collapsed on. This is incorrect still, however. You NEED to leave the space you're covered or holding to get the kill. There's no way around that. "Holding" the space isn't as important in Halo Infinite as it is in something like Halo 3, where travel distance took 'forever'. Traversal around the map is quick in this game, and getting to enemies & teammates is equally as quick. "Holding" will cause collapse, and it's NEVER a good idea in Halo titles...unless it's Halo 3. Halo 3 is the only title where this makes much of a difference. Halo 2 to some extent, but Halo 2 is closer to how Infinite is, where it rewards aggression and strategic routes instead of holding/camping. -- Bonus tip regarding high ground. Yes, High ground is important, however that's not as important in a title like Halo Infinite as it is, again, in previous Halo titles. High ground is important due to easier access to influence spawns, NOT to avoid being shot at. If you can push them to spawn on the bottom or lower half, then it makes for engagements easier since you can use the natural cover of the ledge to peak shoot.
I wrote down all of these tips so I can try to remember them easier in game. Too often I watch a video like this when I’m not at home then forget everything when I get home and play the game
When the red lighting appears on enemy it means there armor is close to breaking. There's an audio queue and the shield break when they are fleshed. Guns are high flesh damage, plasma is high shield damage, brute guns are a mix but increase melee damage (I believe), electric weapons sustain damage so enemy can't regain shield or health after enough shots.
Biggest thing I'm seeing is lack of communication. I have not had one match with a team that even listens to mic. So it's frustrating when you try and tell them something and they aren't listening. Even if you don't have a mic, or aren't on PC to use keyboard, you could listen to your team if they're giving you intel.
Great video, I’m a veteran halo player so already know most of these tips but still watched and shared it with some of my friends who are new to the game.
Something I don’t understand and don’t even know is my fault is that sometimes my aim is buttery-smooth and I’ll get a Perfect, or not whiff any shots, when other times, my aim completely potatoes and I miss most my shots, then die. It really only happens with a few weapons like the Commando and Sidekick. For some reason, the aim, or my aim just feels so inconsistent. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is it just the game?
Can't wait to finish my placements tonight. Got 6 left anxious to see where I'm placed and how much of an effect my nephew and his friend will have had on that placement 🤣
Biggest mistakes I see is running straight to the objectives. Running straight to the flag and oddball mostly, they won’t do any damage or drop the objectives to help
I can name the sixth paying for the pro league skin and not being able to use it on the Halo Reach armor why they decided that I have no idea you can't even change the shoulder pads or the helmet I hope they change it
The biggest mistake I make is not having the ability to disable crossplay, because it's 100 percent my fault that a mnk player has a blatant advantage and doesn't miss their headshots 😂
Not every single shot you make has to lead you to a kill. Cross mapping enemies and calling out the damage is incredibly valuable for map control and will net your whole team kills/assists in the process.
I find that u need to stay with teammates more in this halo than others. Can’t really go out on your own and try to get a 4 piece when most of the time teams stay close to one another.
I hate when teammates in oddball on streets always hold at desk in police station. That room is too vulnerable to rushes. I think the stairs at a have better advantages

If your not learning the pic art then your choosing to not know what your going for or what you grabbed because there the same picture. Just because it's fast and streamlined doesn't mean it's bad mobility is key in fire fights.

Dude yes, this guy is awesome.
Loving halo infinite so far from the gunplay to the maps to the Armor it’s great.
Progression system Flarking sucks though.
Yeah I hate being forced to play a certain way to unlock things. I just wanna play the game normally.
Nice GOTG reference with ‘flarking’ 😉
More than half the time in capture the flag when I'm carrying the enemy flag my teammates happen to be spread out in the map in their own fights, not a single one comes to back me up as I approach our flag, more than once i'm > 10 meters away from capturing and some dude with camouflage kills me in the back with none of my teammates around to stop them from returning their flag and steal our own
Happens too much.
this was 6 games in my placements; i only won game because of this.
People please; PTFO

This reminds me of those proguides ranked tutorial for League Of Legends. As someone who loves League - but has always loved Halo more since 4 years old - I’m thankful for this channel. Can’t wait to hit Onyx and I look forward to seeing this channel popoff.
1: trusting 343 with a great franchise
2: expecting game to be complete upon launch
3: expecting halo to remain halo
4: expecting last 20 years of gaming knowledge to be adopted into a game after its 6 year build cycle
5: leaving a beloved franchise after so many good memories to be ruined by fools
Great tips. Couple things i had not thought about, and others i just need to keep reminding myself about, until they become habit. Halo Infinite plays somewhat differently from other shooters and i'm still getting used to it.
Hey thanks for Making Halo Infinite vids. I used to play Halo CE in 2009 when it got released on pc..
And i still love it.
Please make a weapon tier list soon for infinite 💙

The real title should be "I'm tired of getting crappy randoms so listen close"
I learned a lot about being good in games in general when I played Destiny 2, yes it's more choatic but I learned that positions are power, and even when you pursue, always have some cover or route.
I’ve gone flawless in trials countless times but I’m getting crushed in Halo lol. The zoom on the sniper is insane, the ttk is so slow and I can’t adjust to the radar. But I still love this and I’m having a blast even though I’m the blueberry for once.
If you're running from someone around a corner and you have a grapple hook and a ceiling above you. Grapple straight up and when the enemy turns the corner they'll usually start looking behind them that's when you ninja him. I've done this about 5 times and its so damn satisfying
Actually a very helpful video tactics wise, “new” game guides usually suck
Maybe the reason why they removed OHK with the Oddball is that they want you to drop it, and engage in team fights
I actually I was watching a video the other day on halo rank multiplayer. Basically they said the best way to rank up in ctf and oddball is drop the objective, and help your teamate cause you be a hindrance on your team since they be outnumber. So you maybe on to something there.
I am literally heart broken that there aren't separate ranked playlists
(i.e. - Ranked Team Snipers, Ranked Team Swat, Ranked Team Slayer,
Ranked Team Doubles) with SEPARATE rankings. Sadly, I'm not a fan of the
current ranked playlist with every game type crammed into one. I had
planned on pouring hours of game play into separate ranks. I would have
also ended up pouring money into skins if they had separate rankings for
separate ranked playlists. :( PLEASE ADD THEM, 343.
They just added a few new playlists. Not ranked but still it gives me hope that they will add more in the future.
Good to see you jump on Halo :)
GOOD TO SEE YOU JOIN THE BIG DONGER CLUB!
First time playing halo ever and you sir have a new subscriber
It’s really fun but it’s hard going from one fps to this. Im so used to Destiny 2 lol. Im still getting used to the slow time to kill, the insane zoom on the sniper and the radar. This helped though, muchas gracias.
Luckily I think Destiny and Halo have similar play styles. Since they both were founded by Bungie.
Usually these kinds of videos are trash and while I do generally know all of this either intuitively or explicitly it’s still really good advice and I know a lot of people who could definitely use it because they came from a game like COD where these types of tactics are less important.
As a halo vet i love all these bad kids coming to halo and thinking their flicks are going to be what decides their wins. Ez wins baby
fr im not a veteran but i know how the halo pvp works and its so funny seeing my friends not use their nades
10/10 i love the depth of explanation and these tips are very helpful. im plat 1 currently trying to push to diamond and one tip ive learned is teamwork makes that dreamwork baby this isnt solo dolo
If you are wondering when you should disengage go play on legendary you’ll learn very quickly to flank around or just run away. Especially dealing with grenade spamming grunts pushing you into the open for an elite to two shot you.
Three other noticeable mistakes are 1: the people who tend to stray from their teammates. In quick play it doesn't matter as much, but in higher level ranked it makes a big difference. The second is not pinging or at least tracking enemy team. And last is an add-on to the power weapons and utilities, is not keeping track of the utility weapons like the needler, mangler etc.
Stay with your teammates! I feel like there's a lot of new Halo players or vets who haven't played in a long time and forget. This isn't like CoD (not hating, I like CoD) where you can wipe out 3 guys in 2.5 seconds. Also drop the skull to fight! Holding onto it for an extra three seconds before you die isn't helping the team or yourself.
Great job! Wishes big sucess in Halo too!
This is halo six bud. /s
4:50 wish my randoms would understand this, so many times I've been trying to disengage with someone hot on my heals an peppering my back, only for a nearby friendly to not give a shit about them.
The biggest mistake is teammates not knowing they can tag a location/mark
You gotta explain to people how to play strongholds…so many randoms that are lost
Man, I wish they'd bring back the level system from halo2 with the icons. Something about having dope colors around your rank just felt good. I miss that system a lot.
I mean they kind of did with the armors, cores, and flame effects. If you see those then you know they must be atleast of that level. But I do miss the ease of seeing the colors.
@@lostintime4now983 I def agree, its cool seeing the armor effects etc come back, but I will say, kinda sucks that you can just pay for free season pass levels to get the armors etc without having to actually earn them like the old days. Those colors back then were so dang cool, wild how just getting some new colors felt like the pinnacle of gaming back then. Sucked dealing with all the hackers and bridgers though, with dope colors came a lot of sorrow and salt lmao.
@@GruntOrBust so true I never knew salt came in so many colors till those days.
fun fact, you can use a melee while holding oddball. in that kitchen room, you can do just as much dps with the melee as you teammates with guns. carrier melee reaches around a corner and one pace to the side. its a lot safer that it seems.
the other is the usage of the AR plus Sidearm/BR. The AR is better suited for chase scenarios where you need to be quick and accurate. The spray and consistency is perfect for targets that moves away from you, sporadically, or around cover. Sidearm and the BR are best when the enemy is in an open space, below you, or approaching you. When being chased and approaching a turn, consider throwing a nade directly at a wall infront of you. the nade will bounce behind you but with a noticable drop in trajectory. it will more or less turn the entire corner into a blast zone and you can still avoid getting hit.
This is gonna be a huge channel, you do great work man.
Biggest mistake in halo is being stationary, you gotta move, need to learn the map jumps and how to move around and flank. You need to make yourself small is what I like to say gotta keep moving make yourself a harder target.
Friendly fire is the worst, nothing like getting ran over by your own team. Few connection issues too, nothing like starting a match and seeing part of your team frozen for the first minute while the other half runs off to engage
Thank you for this ! With this video I was able to get my onyx rank !
Deliberately dropping the flag/skull before dying is a good way to deny the enemy points and potentially a related challenge unlock.
Super thorough. Look forward to seeing the channel boom
Best tip I can add is don't run in by urself, always try to stay in teams of 2 at least, iv played so many games and my teammates just don't cover fire of stick together, it's been the downfall to most matches and also, utilise the ping system, it can saves teammates from sneaking enemies
With so many new players in Halo; i have to say, nothing gets me more than players not playing the objective.
6 of my placement games were CTF and not once were these guys playing the obj.
Ive seen them run passed our flag instead of resetting it, they dont bodyguard the carriers,and they dont group when the enemy has our flag ,they're just out across the other end of the map doing whatever it is while 3 people are up my ass lol
Ive had so many times where i would lose the flag 2 feet at our base and no one was with me to recover it;
Great tips. Nice to see some good M&K gameplay too.
I'ma start doing that last one a lot more, I sometimes drop the objective in emergency situations but I'm not consistent with it, thanks for the heads up 👍🏽
Yah I’ve been trying to teach my friends this. I get why they don’t do it but it’s so frustrating to be in a fight and die and see them just cowering in the corner when the opponent is one shot.
A problem I have is thinking that I should just run and gun until I die but make sure I at least disable the enemy's shield before I go.
I should really start thinking of living to fight another day...
I notice when my shields go down, but I ignore it and either keep shooting at the enemy I front of me or get taken out by another enemy that was close by.
I need to change the way I think of playing, I need to take cover, I need to pay attention to my shields, I need to run away whenever my shields are down so I can live to fight another day, I need to take higher ground, I need to be like a real soldier.
In the military there's a thing called Individual Movement Techniques or IMT's, part of it talks about concealment and crawling to new cover when there's numerous places that could conceal you or running to new cover when there's too much open space between where you're currently concealed and where your next cover is.
I feel like I should apply it to the game...
I should look at each map and take note of places that conceal me, take note of how many places there are, how close they are and whether or not I may need to sprint to the next location...
OUR 'CoachMILFS' rocking that SpaceStationGaming armor coating, huh ? ;)
The mistake people make is thinking there is a fast way to rank up.
I mean I got placed P5 an I’m already D4 after 2 days so it’s kinda easy
Also been playing halo since halo 2 so ig it’s not like I don’t know how to play but I feel like halo is just straightforward

My biggest problem is the ball game, there are aways a noob that just keep walking around looting or trying to kill insted of grab the fkn ball or protect who gets it
Another mistake, don't use the commando, gun is cheeks since the alpha testing.
I agree in part. Try hip firing at close range. Ads its absolute trash for sure.
All the guns are like that for me
Try single fire at range
Its the tits
Sniper, br is the best combo. Even if you don’t get the headshot quickly switch to br and boom dead. Saves sniper ammo as well
im plat 2 started on gold 3 goal is onyx =) lets go.
one of the biggest mistakes i made, especially in h5 was always adsing and after i figured out how to hipfire weapons well, i *CLAPPED* people. and another for me is not having a proper melee button. on xbox, on infinite, instead of pressing right stick, i mapped it to RB, since i have one of those controllers with mappable paddle buttons near the grips and i also have the left and right bumpers mapped to these left and right paddle buttons respectively.
and since i have the melee attached to RB, i can press LB for grenades, and since these buttons are next to the grips, i can keep my middle fingers on these buttons all the time, my palms on the grips, thumbs on t-sticks, and fingers on triggers when needed, allowing me to get a positive KD almost every game, even when we are losing, and having an EXTREMELY comfortable grip on the controller.
sorry for flexing if so, but if you have a controller like this, *MAP THE BUMPERS TO THOSE BUTTONS.* i promise you won’t regret it.
One thing that has always gotten under my skin and so many other people is when your teammates aren’t even playing the objective and they’re just slaying
I play so many games where people just ignore camo and ovi. I wish I had a mic to just teach these people how to be aware of controlling pickups and shit cuz games can be won or lost based on shit like that. Down a man ctf on Aquarius camo will make it winnable as Long as you work as a team.
My first mistake was actually thinking the Commando was a good gun in 1v1
These tips are fit for many games, not just halo. And if i lose my game is because many people don't even know what the objective is and not even attempting to use the radar. Also the ping option is too rarely used (welp, it's in an annoying position in the pad after all).
Make group posts and you won’t have to use the pings
A fully charged plasma blast from the plasma pistol with destroy a fully charged overshield, AND the base shield. Thats an easy kill cause typically someone withan overshield will think they can push with low risk. Proving them wrong with a plasma pistol and a headshot is super satisfying. Lol

ENJOY THE RIDE! 100K SOON!
Off to a rocky start.
#1 - Incorrect...but also correct. Let's explain.
Positioning in Halo Infinite (not Halo 3...this is NOT HALO 3!) is determined by what control you have on the map. Your map presence is VERY important, along with teamwork. If you're chasing the kill "in the open", that's a bad move. However, the important aspect here is the decision being made at this time. If the kill in the open is the final dead, which could create a push to into your base, say for an objective (CTF or Oddball), then you're going to need to get that player accounted for. Leaving a player who was weak or 1-shot go could net you a complete loss for your overall team. It's important to obtain that final kill in as smart of a way as possible.
- Scenario - say you're playing Boheemoth and the final player is on their tower, you chase to kill him and you now have good power positioning to get the spawners on their flag low shield for your teammate who is flanking down bottom mid to finish off...but you DON'T want to give up that position. The player you were shooting runs off toward the rocks of their base. You can back up to the edge of the map, maintaining the 'rocks in the way' advantage from the spawners whilst getting the person who was running away. "Chasing" isn't required, but the important part here is the decision at play. There's multiple ways to tackle this issue and some will be better than others. Being aware of the spawners and the enemy team locations, along with what you influence (spawn locations are influenced by location, shots fired or grenades thrown, along with teammate positioning) then you're in good hands.
Except if you "don't" chase to kill that player 1-shot and they get away, that allows for a potential 4v4 battle with you being what you think is a good position, but may be easily shot from another position...which that person will go straight to and charge at you from.
Response to #1 - "You could get 2v1, 3v1, and just die". This is where situation comes into place. Yes and no. You can if the ENTIRE enemy team is up and looking to help the player low shields. But the important aspect is simply that if you already have a good position, your team is probably in control...so they wouldn't get you in a 2v1 unless YOU go into a bad position to kill the player. So the important take away isn't to "not" chase the kill, it's to do so while playing smart. Be aware of the surrounding teammates, be aware of where spawners may be or where you can be attacked. And attempt to predict the path the enemy may take to catch them at the other side of it. In some cases, some people just hide behind a wall, so my instinct is typically to grenade further past the enemy and insta (that's the first grenade thrown causing the second grenade to go off) the player attempting to flee.
- Also being in an open space is going to be required at times. Not every map has 'natural cover' in every given scenario. The important aspect is to know where on the map you could be getting peaked from (the angles) and attempt to stay out of the peak spots for where the enemy is roughly at. You can utilize this technique as well to traverse faster on the map, WHICH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT of this game. Map presence & damage = key.
You partially note this @ 1:39, however this is the most important part. To stray people from pushing will cause them to be collapsed on.
This is incorrect still, however. You NEED to leave the space you're covered or holding to get the kill. There's no way around that. "Holding" the space isn't as important in Halo Infinite as it is in something like Halo 3, where travel distance took 'forever'. Traversal around the map is quick in this game, and getting to enemies & teammates is equally as quick. "Holding" will cause collapse, and it's NEVER a good idea in Halo titles...unless it's Halo 3. Halo 3 is the only title where this makes much of a difference. Halo 2 to some extent, but Halo 2 is closer to how Infinite is, where it rewards aggression and strategic routes instead of holding/camping.
-- Bonus tip regarding high ground. Yes, High ground is important, however that's not as important in a title like Halo Infinite as it is, again, in previous Halo titles. High ground is important due to easier access to influence spawns, NOT to avoid being shot at. If you can push them to spawn on the bottom or lower half, then it makes for engagements easier since you can use the natural cover of the ledge to peak shoot.
"High ground is king". Yes, I've been knowing this for the last 17 years
I wrote down all of these tips so I can try to remember them easier in game. Too often I watch a video like this when I’m not at home then forget everything when I get home and play the game
When the red lighting appears on enemy it means there armor is close to breaking. There's an audio queue and the shield break when they are fleshed. Guns are high flesh damage, plasma is high shield damage, brute guns are a mix but increase melee damage (I believe), electric weapons sustain damage so enemy can't regain shield or health after enough shots.
Loved the video and much appreciated information.. the term "Jiggle Peak" cracks me up when you're talking about descoping an enemy sniper 🤘🤣
Jiggle peaking is a very common fps term
Sitting stationary with the warthog is the biggest one for BTB. I only trust another driver when its my buddy
Not a mistake, but how do you 1 melee hit kill from the front like everyone is doing?
this channel gotta blow up soon ur vids are really good considering only a few thousand subs
It’s awesome and hilarious you mentioned the grenades lmaoooo it’s been grenade city frrrrr
I think the fact that social has friendly fire off has made it worse too lmao
Great video! Usually people will just blame their team or their enemies instead of backing up and improving their strategy to play better.
I do my best to work with my teammates on objective game modes but that doesn’t matter much when the game says “Screw you, 3v4 time!”
The amount of people I've already seen just charge past my entire team just tryna chase that one guy for a single kill and I'm just like *bonk*
Biggest thing I'm seeing is lack of communication. I have not had one match with a team that even listens to mic. So it's frustrating when you try and tell them something and they aren't listening. Even if you don't have a mic, or aren't on PC to use keyboard, you could listen to your team if they're giving you intel.
Great video! Liked and subbed. Hoping to make some content like this myself 😄
Great video, I’m a veteran halo player so already know most of these tips but still watched and shared it with some of my friends who are new to the game.
Something I don’t understand and don’t even know is my fault is that sometimes my aim is buttery-smooth and I’ll get a Perfect, or not whiff any shots, when other times, my aim completely potatoes and I miss most my shots, then die. It really only happens with a few weapons like the Commando and Sidekick. For some reason, the aim, or my aim just feels so inconsistent. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is it just the game?
Yo, Thanks for the info! I placed PLAT 4!! Looking for groups to play on stream with!!

Can't wait to finish my placements tonight. Got 6 left anxious to see where I'm placed and how much of an effect my nephew and his friend will have had on that placement 🤣
Lost 7/10 and it still placed me in plat 2
Biggest mistakes I see is running straight to the objectives. Running straight to the flag and oddball mostly, they won’t do any damage or drop the objectives to help
I can name the sixth paying for the pro league skin and not being able to use it on the Halo Reach armor why they decided that I have no idea you can't even change the shoulder pads or the helmet I hope they change it
Appreciate this I've been making these mistakes like crazy
I like all of this but really just wanna do swat, then I can engage multiple ppl and still win
The biggest mistake I make is not having the ability to disable crossplay, because it's 100 percent my fault that a mnk player has a blatant advantage and doesn't miss their headshots 😂
So use a mouse and keyboard. At least, the Xbox Series S/X lets you and Infinite supports it.
Cool, Gameleap has a Halo channel now.
Not every single shot you make has to lead you to a kill. Cross mapping enemies and calling out the damage is incredibly valuable for map control and will net your whole team kills/assists in the process.

I hate when teammates in oddball on streets always hold at desk in police station. That room is too vulnerable to rushes. I think the stairs at a have better advantages
