Is Sticking Cheap?
« Reply #1 on: April 10, 2005, 10:49:00 PM »

It's not cheap, but it is a very good skill to have, and few have it.

My friend is amazing at sticking(ie. plasma grenades are his weapon of choice) and he sometimes gets the same reaction from people. Luckily i'm always on his team.

People will bitch no matter wat you do though so don't worry about it. I've been called "SMG whore" and "panzy greande thrower"   rotfl.gif

not cheap in the slightest... but i find it funny that people will stick an enemy and then just run and jump around not daring to shoot them so they die by the stick...  laugh.gif

Things that take skill is not considered cheap, like plasma gernades and sniping.  

I would consider rocket whoring and the Plasma pistol/BR combo, cheap.  As little to no skill is required in these to get a kill.

If the ppl you are playing with aren't very good, and thats all you do to them, then yeah it does get cheap, but if your playing with other ppl that are equal to your skill or better then its not.

Eventhough rockets, PP/BR combo, and to some extent the sword are extremely effective at getting kills, i do not use them because i find no satisfaction in killing people with them in slayer type games.  In CTF it is another story, because kills is not what is important.

I play whole matches without a single shot, just stickies.  I dont think its cheap, I think its a challenge to win a match without a bullet fired....Ya it pisses people off, any one hit kill does, but at least it requires skill, unlike the rocket launcher.

I dont think thats really true. I learned some halo skills by playing with people that owned my ass.  I think the payoff is when you can catch up to them and put up a good fight, regardless of how good they are at sniping or whatever else.
