Teabag Prevention:The Last Mythic Map – Longshore
And here you have it, boys ‘n girls, the final Halo 3 map tips article. As you may or may not know, we’ve done just about everything that is Halo 3, even ODST. To check out our past articles, you can find them all here. I can’t say I didn’t enjoy these past couple of years. That’s right. Teabag Prevention’s second birthday is on the horizon and we’re not stoppin’ here. You will hear our condolences regarding Halo 2’s servers shutting down and we will walk you through Reach’s Beta and, once it’s out, how to seriously pwn your little sister at Reach. Now that things are all clear, let’s get. IT. ON.
THIS WEEK: LONGSHORE
TIP #1 – BOYS TRY TO TOUCH MY JUNK, JUNK
Since this is a fairly large map, I’ve outlined just about everything you either need or to watch out for.
Bubble Shield
Regenerator
Power Drainer
Gravity Lift and Overshield
Active Camo and Shotgun
Sniper Rifle
Battle Rifle
Sword
Rockets
TIP #2 – ROCKETS
It may be instinct, it may be your greedy personality, but either way, it’s a must to rush Rockets at the start of the map. When doing so, make sure to bring someone along with you. They should be able to watch your back for you in case there’s an ambush of any kind. If there isn’t an ambush, well, he could be an extra ‘nade spammer.
When you do have Rockets, use them properly and sparingly. This means don’t go hitting walls or trying to kill someone from afar. In other words, try to fire them into groups of enemies, or just ones you’re pissed at.
TIP #2 – CAMO, BITCHES!
There’s going to be a lot of people gunning for the Active Camo. This is a fairly large map, so a Camo can be very useful. Just don’t waste it by rushing out into the middle of the fight. You should know better. We all should by now. Please make it so that goes without saying. I’m talking to YOU, people I played matchmaking with last.
Pay attention to your motion tracker and you’ll surely be able to catch one fool (that a certain member of the A-Team would pity) making a run for the base. So when you DO have Camo, make sure you take advantage of your left analog stick.
TIP #3 – SNIPAS
It is imperative that your team place a sniper on top of the tower. Sure, it’s a cliche enough spot to put one, and some people will be looking for the sniper there, but as long as your sniper is good and moves around a lot, the enemy team won’t be able to guess where he’ll be peaking out from next.
Just remember that certain bridges can become elongated, thus providing enemies to get the drop on you.
And how do you elongate this bridge you ask?
TIP #4 – STAY TOGETHER, DAMMIT
On larger scaled maps, it’s a basic necessity to stay with the pack. Like what was said in the previous article, there are some who venture off and be successful, but that person may not be you.
Also, never go off alone with a power weapon. Not sure what a power weapon is? Well, a Rocket Launcher is one. If anything, the person holding Rockets should be proving support and scaring the other team by brandishing the weapon at them. So please, don’t go off alone.
Nice Rockets!… SNIPED!
Fear not! Teabag Prevention is far from being done. Halo: Reach will soon be here, and with that, Brian Gilmore and Jake108 will jump at the chance of being your main source of tips on Reach’s new weapons, maps, vehicles, and much more! So stick around, play Halo 3, and be ready to teabag with Teabag Prevention on a weekly basis and know we’ll be here for you come May 3rd! Keep those crotches on those visors.
