Your best rage story in any of the Halo series.

Recent or best rages In any of the halo series! Go!

I have too many, but these two, apart from attempts at the Vid master achievements (Which we never speak of) were probably the worst.

  • Probably when Halo 3 First brought out Infection, me and my mates were camping on top of that tower mesh on High Ground, was one kill of my first ever killionaire then got betrayed by my mate for my shotgun ammo, Never raged so hard in party chat. He thought it was funny, I however did not feel the same way. Safe to say I had a second Mic when the first one went flying at 120 km/h across my room and into my wall.

  • Second one was going for the Save this film achievement in halo 3, which if you didn’t know required you too **’’**On a Mythic map, get a Perfection medal during any ranked or social match.’’ So playing team doubles on Citadel, two really bad kids on their team, was on 14 kills one more to finish the game and finally get this achievement that was, keep in my mind the last achievement for halo 3 to finally get a full 1750 Gamerscore on the game, then my same mate says, and i quote ‘‘I bet I can no scope him across the map’’, and he won that bet, rest in piece my second headset. The worst is he put the clip in he’s file share and it got 30 or so downloads. Would defiantly go back and try find that video for a source.

So what are your worst rage stories and any halo series?

I’ve never really raged that bad before, lag in Matchmaking makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes.

One time recently, I literally gave up on Halo 5 and actually got emotional over how everything was turning out in the game. I was consistently going negative and having one terrible game after another and it felt like nothing ever worked out for me on there (still feels that way sometimes…). I felt like years of Halo practice had just been completely reversed. I felt like I had wasted years of hard work and effort to get better at Halo and I felt angry and disgusted that none of it had paid off. The rage I felt inside at the time was honestly -Yoinking!- ridiculous when I look back at it, but at the time, I had just had enough of everything always going wrong (also had some real life bullcrap happening, which didn’t help). Of course now, I’m more used to the game. I still have garbage luck and bad games, but not as bad as it was before

When I look back, I don’t think I’ve ever been so angry, and honestly, broken inside, due to a game as I felt that night playing this game. I’m glad that, even though stupid stuff still happens every game, I’m much better at Halo 5 now and I don’t feel the same way anymore, and probably won’t ever feel that way again

Halo 3’s ranking system.

Had my highest rank in Lone Wolf, H3 was my first game I’ve ever played online so I didn’t quite understanding quitting early put me into negative XP and TK’n was bad and all that fun stuff. Once I became aware of ranks and EXP and all that… life became hell.

I remember going on like a 15 winning streak and still wouldn’t go form 39 > 40… After that lost once and went down to 38. Threw my controller against the wall as hard as I could… First controller I had ever broken playing games… Love H3 to death and still think that ranking system was near perfect… nearly…

I’ve never broken a controller o_O…

I’d never break a $60-$150 controller no matter how angry I could get :stuck_out_tongue:

I only get “upset” when teammates kill me but even then my reaction is “Really? That’s how you’re gonna be?” I’m not like “OMFG why did you kill me!!! I wanted that sniper!!!”

I have never raged so hard that it is noteworthy, but there was a time with my brother when he wouldn’t even let me touch his 360. He was playing halo 3 and with his friends going for level 40, and the games were getting more laggier as they went. Finally on snowbound, the net full on crashed, and he immediately dropped to level 38 after about 5 wins in a row as a level 39. He completely lost it, and threw the controller so hard at the ground that it bounced off, hit very high up the wall and then pushed the 360 off of a nearby table as it came back down. This proceeded to break the 360 and halo 3, and it was when we got the next one i finally got to play halo 3. Greateat rage i have ever witnessed, but it did cost a few hundred dollars getting a new 360 and halo 3. The controller actually worked afterwards, but had a large chip of plastic missing on the handle, and was thrown out after a few years.

I don’t rage quit, unless its Dark Souls. Can i tell a Dark Souls story? No? I don’t care I’m telling it anyways.

I kept trying to get to a boss, which was bad enough, and someone kept invading my world and killing me. That puts me back at my checkpoint with all the enemies to kill again, without losing health. Anyways he invades my world like 3 times in a row and kills me every time. He had some ridiculous magic spells and swords that cut through your shield. Finally, I just got up and pulled the internet cable out of the xbox and went to the boss in offline mode. You, know, when offline was a thing.

I have never raged in Halo until Halo 5 was released. My rage began as disappointment as I played the campaign and all of the lackluster content , from over all length to the character development. Afterwards I checked out Arena and saw how dead the playlists were. By that I mean the lacking in playlists such as social playlists, capture the flag, king of the hill, griff ball, infection, ect. Then my frustration steadily rose as I played the same map over and over and over again in both Arena and Warzone. My anger finally hit me when problems i faced in the final game i did not have during the beta. Example spawning, aiming,and other glitches.
Once my friends and family started coming over the grim reminder of no splitscreen haunted me each time they visited,( I didn’t follow Halo 5’s news as much as I should have before release so i bought the game unaware of split-screen, I was still assuming of the double split that they announced before.) Then the REQ system started getting on my nerves and before I knew it I raged as I entered Arena games alone and every time I faced opponents who were four party while my team was running around on crack.
However what added to my overall displeasure of Halo 5 is dispite the lack of content and clear evidence from clips and pics that majority of the “free DLC” was cut original content, it seems that majority of the fan base praises 343 like they made a great game. They act like 343 is Bungie and Halo 5 is Halo 3. All the content 343 cut in Halo 5 makes the game feel like a step backwards despite the new abilities. “One step forward four steps back.” So my rage is 50/50, 50% the game 50% the community that doesn’t want better for Halo.

I’m known for raging a bit and would like to apologise to anyone I might of lost my cool with and kicked from my party. It’s something I am working on controlling. The guys I play with don’t mind it so much because they said I only tend to do it when there is a good reason.

Okay once I was playing Warzone, and the lag was real. Literally, there were people one-shotting me with weapons like the BR and Magnum, hell even AR, but then when I try it the -Yoinking!- game delays the shots and everyone is invulnerable to them. I couldn’t walk 1 -Yoinking!- foot without random teleporting. I needed the REQ points so I continued the whole. -Yoinking!-. Thing. Then I end up getting get this, 900 -Yoinking!- req points! I was so pissed off I sold most everything, including a few mythics to buy a gold pack but all I get is the Hunter helmet when I want Whispered Truth

MCC at launch. Have never raged until that experience

Halo 3 rage cost me a few headsets, controller, and a punch to the tv.

not the best, but most recent (last night): https://youtu.be/GH7hzSrkhvk

See I can only remember what I did when raged back in the day but not what set me off in those moments. I remeber throwing my wireless 360 headset agasint my 360 but I was seeing to much red to remember.

I almost never rage in Halo because I don’t like to be one of those players who rages. so I can’t exactly say when I raged because all I remember is never.

Wow, I really feel you there. I had a night like that on Reach and 3 a long time ago. It so happened that night that I had the house to myself so I moved my 360 to the big flat screen TV for the first time ever (I had been using an old school tube TV up until this point and thought my skills were pretty good). I was really excited to finally play my Halo games on the full HD that they deserved at the time. Now although the graphics looked great on the 60 inch flat screen and the surround sound was shaking the whole house, my gameplay was absolute garbage! All of a sudden I couldn’t get a single headshot to save my life in either Halo 3 or Reach and I couldn’t understand why. Stupidly I thought “Did my change of scenery really mess up my game this horribly? Is it the couch!?! Why the hell am I just garbage tonight!?!”. I got extremely upset and felt a lot of the same feelings you described. I kept playing until like 5 in the morning to get back my old skills and although I got better I never quite got back to the impressive stats I had been pulling before. I finally had a win and turned in for the night (though if was morning at this point) and put my stuff away.

It wasn’t until much later that I discovered that some HD TVs especially Samsung TVs have an insane amount of screen lag when compared to an analog TV which is why I felt like I was playing like garbage. Thankfully though on Samsung TVs they have an option in settings that allows you to turn off the screen lag in settings in a mode called “Game Mode”. The next time I played on that TV I switched on gamemode and was back to destroying faces with my sniper rifle.

H5 is the only game that’s ever made me feel like this. Don’t understand why.

Finding a match in MCC.

Think it was Halo 4, and I had a real bad evening in multiplayer.

It was my worst rage out of the very few game rages I’ve had.

I sit down infront of my TV ready to play some Halo on this rainy, quite stormy, saturday evening. Girlfriend at her parents so I’m home alone. Got my cookies and chocolate milk next to me, lights are off and I’m just melting by the cozyness of the whole setup. Some 8 hours of gaming ahead of me loaded with friends on XBL to play with, good snacks and drinks, best weather ever to play in, the very rarest of rare perfect moments for a gaming evening.

Well, first things first, the router acts up, it doesn’t for some reason allow XBL through, everything else working fine. So after half an hour of looking for “nothing” and fixing it, I finally get on XBL. Next thing happens, none of my closest friends are online, a few I’ve played once or twice are on playing other games with other people, so I’m on my own. It annoys me but not to the point of destroying the evening, still got the milk and cookies, rainy weather and home alone.

First match goes on and I’m greeted by the typical scenario of my team being flat worms and our opponents the NAVY Seal of exterminators. It’s a massacre, worst thing is that it’s a BTB objective game and they’re out to stat pads. Luckily no one leaves so, yeah, not too devastated. However, that was the best match of the whole evening. For some reason, the MM system had it in for me that evening. I got quitters, AFKers, feeders, literally new players with fresh accounts, griefers, while the enemy team continued to be only good players. Not a single win, and I lost count of how many matches I had. It ended with me punching the floor so hard, I had marks on my knuckles from the carpet the day after.

This is so me. I was playing on a 720p 42inch plasma until a month ago where we switch TVs and I got to play on a very nice 1080p 50inch LG smart-LED. I was like ‘‘Hell this is going to be awesome with the graphic 1080p and a bigger TV, etc’’ Never have I been so wrong. First game of swat, the only one, I went 1-17 and I am usually an average of 1.2 K/D swat guy just not the best not the worst. Immediately after that game I called my gf and said ‘‘you know what we might have to change back the TVs because I can’t do -Yoink- in H5 with your TV…’’ Ok calm the -Yoink- down and google your problem (At this point I was talking to myself). So I hopped on computer enter the exact name of the TV with ‘‘input lag’’ at the end. Illuminati confirmed there was a ‘‘game mode’’ on TV that pretty much turn off the lag.

Everything is back to normal since then and I can play Halo like I used to.
