The biggest mistake I often make is staying away from my teammates. Pretty sure I’m not the only one who has made that mistake before.

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'd add not tagging enemies to this list. It's especially good in CTF. It's such a helpful and underused tool to let your team know where they are and how many. Even if you lose that fight, your teammates can clean up the damaged enemies, or they can reposition for better plays

at 5:37 i would definately add Active Camo, its way more powerful than it used to be. Way harder to detect.

I love your statement on fight reengagements, often times I'll help a teammate out that is running from a fight but won't turn to help me out once their attacker shifts their attention onto me.

Most of my losing games are because my teammates don't know how to group up or go for the objectives 😑

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.

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 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.

"Always remember that high ground is key." *Obi-Wan Kenobi liked that*

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.

Great video! Usually people will just blame their team or their enemies instead of backing up and improving their strategy to play better.

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 💙

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.

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

Remember all of us when you reach the millions

The real title should be "I'm tired of getting crappy randoms so listen close"

looks like the halo cahnnel is popping off, nice

Actually a very helpful video tactics wise, “new” game guides usually suck

Loving halo infinite so far from the gunplay to the maps to the Armor it’s great. Progression system Flarking sucks though.

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

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

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

Maybe the reason why they removed OHK with the Oddball is that they want you to drop it, and engage in team fights

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.

You gotta explain to people how to play strongholds…so many randoms that are lost

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.

Great job! Wishes big sucess in Halo too!

First time playing halo ever and you sir have a new subscriber

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

This is gonna be a huge channel, you do great work man.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Another mistake, don't use the commando, gun is cheeks since the alpha testing.

Good to see you jump on Halo :)

Deliberately dropping the flag/skull before dying is a good way to deny the enemy points and potentially a related challenge unlock.

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?

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.

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.

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 👍🏽

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...

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.

Loved the video and much appreciated information.. the term "Jiggle Peak" cracks me up when you're talking about descoping an enemy sniper 🤘🤣

SO EARLY IT"S STILL 360p. THANK YOU!

OUR 'CoachMILFS' rocking that SpaceStationGaming armor coating, huh ? ;)

Thank you for this ! With this video I was able to get my onyx rank !

My first mistake was actually thinking the Commando was a good gun in 1v1

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

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

Great tips. Nice to see some good M&K gameplay too.

"High ground is king". Yes, I've been knowing this for the last 17 years

The mistake people make is thinking there is a fast way to rank up.

Yo, Thanks for the info! I placed PLAT 4!! Looking for groups to play on stream with!!

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

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

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;

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.

Sitting stationary with the warthog is the biggest one for BTB. I only trust another driver when its my buddy

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.

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!”

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.

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 😂

It boggles my mind people still haven't taught themselves to use the equipment. I get so many kills using the repulser and hook and it's so damn fun

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.

Not a mistake, but how do you 1 melee hit kill from the front like everyone is doing?

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

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.

im plat 2 started on gold 3 goal is onyx =) lets go.

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.

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

Is this the full Multiplayer experience? I've been playing for a week..just curious. Is there going to be anything else or is this it? Curious is all...I remember linking 3 xboxs back in the day for halo 1..so fun

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

Super thorough. Look forward to seeing the channel boom

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).

I wonder, is gameleap a company you work for or do you do this together directly with Speeed from Dota, for example?

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

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.

How do I get a new gun? besides the one I always spawn with.

I came from battlefield and havent played halo in a while. So im in the battlefield mindset of "you die in one hit anyway, make that shit count"

Halo content is great but I think creators need to address the issues at hand I.e grenade spamming and placement controller issues and of course the price gouging in the (battle pass junk) and slow ass progression system . No actual character level .....

this channel gotta blow up soon ur vids are really good considering only a few thousand subs

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.

The biggest mistake is teammates not knowing they can tag a location/mark

What's the reasoning behind camping the enemies flag right at the delivery point? Rack up points, thumb your nose at them or what?

I have a problem where I accidentally stray off from teammates to try and go on those really satisfying killing sprees haha

I am going to start to play halo masterchief collection so that till halo infinite comes, I know complete story and I can become a halo fanboy 😂😂😂😂

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

Repulser has a little kick so u can actually use it as a little jump boost or if u turn around u speed boost

Appreciate this I've been making these mistakes like crazy

#1 tip for climbing rank: Play with a premade of 2 or 5. There are too many atrocious players in Infinite to have consistent success in solo queue.

im an OG to this channel

Title of the video: Common mistakes Thumbnail: using the commando Me: yeah I can see that

wait, your telling me people dont know these 5 basic things? i mean ffs its with every FPS

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*

Haha I love that people are still jumping in halo, they are such a easy kill :D.. Well the hook I need to learn It's weakness xD
