I know the main strat to getting a better kda is sticking with your team, but what always happens when I stick with my team is I get flanked.i feel like I’m always that guy in the group who dies to the enemy that runs behind us. Is there any way to prevent this? It’s kind of frustrating because I feel like I have a target on my back wherever I go.

The main strat to getting a better KDA is not dying. It’s infinitely more important to avoid a death than get a kill. Halo is a game to the first team dies 50 times. Be patient, be prepared, and have a general plan of where you are going on the map and you’re weak points. I wouldn’t necessarily “stick with [your] team”. Instead, I’d see their rush and take a path that covers their weak points.
I agree with the above. It may be better to spread across the map in a way that covers the “hot-spots” of the map. It can be hard to properly accomplish this when you can’t communicate with your teammates. The reason you guys are getting flanked is because no one is covering the path that the enemies are taking to get behind you. It may seem like a cheap tactic, but once you spread out and cover the possible spawns, the other team is effectively trapped.
I have the same problem. Try to slow down more if you can and try to learn about how you move and make the changes when you respond.
It’s easy to figure out if you think about it. If you stick with your team, that means you have multiple teammates in one area which leaves more of the map open for the other team to freely move around. Not having communication with your team will make it more difficult to figure out where they are, but you can get a general idea if you pay attention to where your teammates are and if they’re fighting anyone or if they aren’t which means the enemy team isn’t in that area.
The fact that you are noticing things like this is a good thing, OP. Reflecting on your gameplay is one of the first step to improving!
Learn the maps spawns keep up on power ups power weapons and most of all use your mics ive had a headset and mic since the second day i had xbox live in 2004 and wont play without it and tons of good tips on youtube twittch and mixer
Look behind you… No seriously double back occasionally, especially if you have no teammates in that area. And if you don’t want to get flanked, then become the flanker.
I flank in every multiplayer game I play; it’s just my natural comfort zone/gameplay style. Develop some flankers on your own team as a counter or learn to counter-flank yourself. A lot of players believe that flanking just involves running round the side of the map so just keep that in mind whenever you’re moving around.
My rule of thumb is if you haven’t seen an enemy for about 20ish seconds check behind you.

What’s the appropriate way to flank

Depends entirely on where your teammates are and where they are firing, but you typically want to rush from the opposite side of your teammates.

If you hang back behind the pack you can pick em off as they try to flank. If you group up too tight you will be an easy target and the entire group may get whiped out. I like the Halo 2 BR for covering.
A big group is the best way to base rush, but if they are rushing your base rush, you have to account for that.
I’d say just keep your head on a swivel. If it suddenly “feels” like they aren’t in front of you anymore, then odds are that they are definitely behind you. I’d say always keep an eye on your rear just for that purpose. It’s what I do, at least. If my team is pushing in one certain direction, then I’ll join but my paranoia will kick in and I’ll start checking to see if anyone is trying to sneak up on us (something I “developed” when playing one of the Modern Warfare COD games years ago regarding the paranoia lol).
Following somebody is good, but you need to be aware at tye same time. Avoid tunnel vision. Don’t follow him limb to limb, move with him, but plan your route according to enemy locations.
Both of you being together can great influence enemy spawns, depending on where on the map you are. Also where the enemies are.

Be where the other team aren’t expecting you to be. Everybody knows the routes flankers take and where to wait for them. Figure out the less popular routes and take those. That’s how you end up behind the enemy team with a silenced DMR, racking up the kills and forcing them to actively look for you.

Good advice.
Even just contesting the flakers is good. Spread your shots out so your teammates can finish them off easier. Rack up Assists and stop the flank.
