*TIPS* How to get better at the crucible

DISCLAIMER: a quick stat check will reveal im average at PvP...however, I have really improved in crucible, and I feel like its my favorite part of the game. I would like this thread to be full of things that will help people do better on the crucible. Please add to this, start/continue discussion, etc. The only replies should be helpful or ones that ask questions. [b]Intro[/b] I will say this: the crucible has the highest learning curve I have maybe ever seen for a console FPS for quite some time (maybe even since halo:ce) Bottom line: if you think crucible is awful, its most likely because you are bad at it. Here is a thread with the hopes of getting you better. Please add to the list in sequential order 1. PICK UP HEAVY AMMO WHEREVER POSSIBLE. I cant believe how much this ia a game changer if an entire team understands this. This dates back to halo 1: control the power weapon, control the game. 2. Do not neglect the sniper rifle. I hardly see people sniping, yet it might be the easiest sniper gameplay I have ever seen on a FPS. Reminds me of halo 1. The sniper is amazing for racking up kills. 3. Get to know the maps. The more experienced tou are at a map, the morelikely you will be able to unserstand "map flow"--- how often people are at locations around a map and when. This is key in winning. 4. Play with a team. I play a lot by myself, but I can tell you that everytime I have gone into crucible with a full team, 9/10 games we win. Why? Communication. Plain and simple. 5. Dont get frustrated. For everytime you get killed with the OP blade dancer or anything else you deem OP...realize you have a counter. 6. DO NOT TRUST THE RADAR! If you see a red blip, try to estimate where the oponent will be...dont focus on the radar...focus o your surroundings! This ties in heavily with point #3 7. Dont think any class overpowered. They all have ups and downs. Play with your subclass setups....that is the real trick. 8. On control: capture a point and CONTROL it. You dont need to have all three! 9. Handcannons are underutilized. 10. You should save your super. Really, they ate awesome to use on more then one person. Stop doing fist of havoc on a lone guy in objecti e games. 11.TEAMSHOT!!!! This is a staple in all bungie games. Pop shots and help your teammates. This is a key for winning gun battles. 12. Dont be a lone wolf. Stick around your team, just dont smother them in case of rockets or specials! 13. Stop complaining. Everything that is being done to you you can do right back. 14. Take mental notes of what the other team is using. Getting decimated by the shotgun at every turn? Simple. Hang back and dont rush! Dont feed the enemy kills! 15. Dont try to win one one gun battles unless you get off first. 9/10 times the person who shoots first will win, unless the opponents have a severe discrepancy in skill level. Take cover, get your shield back and then try. 16. Crouch. I cant tell you how underutilized crouch is. 17. Stop being stubborn. If you die a couple times in a row rushing in..change your strategy ! Post yours!
