"I’m Never at Fault"
Others are always at fault, aren’t they? You keep doing everything right and they just ruin things for you, do they?
You watch your teammates back but they never watch yours. You’re not an awful warthog driver you just never have good gunners.
You’re always going the right thing, so if someone goes wrong, it can’t be you right?
Sorry to have to say this, but not assuming responsibility is one of the most obvious signs that you are living in denial.
"Everything Has an Excuse"
“The radar is too small, where did he come from?” “My team is awful, I always have to carry them”
Do you somehow manage to find excuses for everything?
Good for you, maybe you will find someone who cares or feels sorry for you, but for the time being, you look like a whiner to your teammates and no one respects people who constantly complain.
"You ignore things you need to improve on"
You know your weaknesses, yet you never try to put in the effort to improve on them or just flat out refuse to believe you have a weakness.
Instead, you do things that are convenient or easy for you hoping that somehow, by some miracle, you’ll improve on your weaknesses over time without ever practicing or addressing it.

What else do you want?
Bumhurt, will it satisfy you, Warrior?
Sure it’s easy to blame the game and turn a blind eye to areas of possible improvement. That doesn’t mean that this isn’t an unforgiving game. I’m not saying Halo shouldn’t be sweaty. I’m just saying it would have been nice if they’d made some space within the game where I could go and not run the risk of drowning in my own perspiration.

It’s only an unforgiving game if you let it be. If 3 of your teammates are not complaining, but you are, step back and think why.
When I lose while playing Solo in WZA or Warzone, and especially WZFF, and I’m one of the best players on my team, I’m fairly certain that it isn’t my fault.
This logic represents life in general. When I played league of Legends and got placed in Bronze 5 (lowest rank for every non league player) I did what most bronze players do: blame others. It wasnt until I started taking responsibility for my mistakes did I climb my way out of bronze, into silver, and then gold.
Having played Halo for 15 years, I’ve come to understand that even if your team is doing poorly, there’s still something you can do about it. If you are using a mic, patience with others will pay dividends. “Hey guys let’s play conservative and slow things down a bit,” is a lot better than, “Are you -Yoinking!- kidding me? Why do you keep running in and dying?” Sure the second one may be more tempting to vent your justifiable anger, but it’s not going to work towards a solution. It’s going to make your team resent you and push back.
If you get out-BRed, be a man about it. You missed and he hit. It wasnt lag, it wasn’t anything but you getting out played. If the enemy team dominates you, ask yourself why. Analyze it. How did they do it? More times than not the answer is communication. It isn’t always that their accuracy is better or that their raw skill is that much higher (though there are times where that’s applicable). Remember: your rounds do just as much damage as theirs. Halo is about manipulating the map to your advantage, getting the enemy to spawn where you want them to, choosing your positioning and engagements wisely. It’s an art. It’s not a point and shoot game, you have to use your brain and that’s why other games appeal to a wider audience: it’s because Halo severely punishes impatience and lack of knowledge.
The most successful people in the world take ownership of their actions and ask themselves what they could have done differently or better. Even if something is annoying or wrong, such as a teammate playing horribly, ask yourself how you could have done better or how you could have changed that situation.
Top in the leaderboard in points while teammates have 0 kills and are aiming aimlessly around not knowing what the difference between red and blue is… - Radar is too small, hence the countless threads about it… - I’m not competitive, so I couldn’t give a flying fancy if I need to improve. If you’re competitive that’s fine, but I’m playing Halo for fun and will never complain about my own skill.

Very well said, unlike a lot of the responses here who, I think, don’t really understand the point of the topic.

You can do this but it is also fair to complain about the game when;
A: You’re playing solo and get matched up with yoink team mates and have to play against a party.
B: You’re not from the USA so the servers -Yoink- you over
If the above are applicable to you then you have every right to complain about the game because it happens far too often.
You know a lot of the times the team does perform quite poorly. You can do your best to try and take the middle base but your team will be too busy chasing bullet sponge butterflies. Or setting up camp in another base rather than help accomplish the most obvious and highly strategic objective.
Halo 5’s warthogs are extremely bouncy. We are doing our best to control them but despite our best efforts we can’t avoid tumbling over excessively.
You forgot to write down judging too quickly.
Theres also rounds where I can be absolutely better than my team or sometimes not as good as them. Better make a smurf account to crush all the newcomers eventually.
