Practice, analyze everything you do wrong and don't do it the next time.

The best tip I can give is to play with people who are better than you. Chances are, there are at least a few of them on here. I know it can get frustrating when you're just getting owned all the time by these beasts, but you'll never learn anything by just owning people that aren't as good as you. Since I've started playing customs with some of these guys, I've seen drastic improvement. I mean, like, within a week. The other tip is to try out LegendPimp's guide. It's helped me a lot, too. There's a link to it on the 'Experts' page.

Hi,

i really need to get better at halo 3. can u give me all the multyplayer tips you know.

Getting better takes a lot of patience, especially if you're completely new to Halo.  The best advice I can give is not to worry so much about killing, but preventing yourself from dying.  Whether it's Team Slayer or Team Doubles, 1 kill and 0 deaths is better than 10 kills and 15 deaths.

In terms of tips, depending on the map and the weapons you've got, it's impossible to say there's "one tip to rule them all" in any given situation.  However, going back to the basics -- Don't rush in, and if you do make sure you take at least one of the opposing team out.  Always hold back for a decent weapon -- Don't respawn and immediately rush towards where the enemy are with just the AR, at the very least have some stickies.  Plan how you play -- Move around the edges of the map to cut down the number of places the enemy can attack you from.  Battle Rifle's are hands down the way to go, if you're not confident with them -- Play nothing but Social until you're felling enemies with at least 6 shots.  If facing somebody with a Battle Rifle, strafe.

Learn to do these naturally and you'll find yourself improving in no time.  There is also lots of information on Battle Rifle proficiency and Strafing on the net if you're in need of a little extra help.

i agree with everything he has stated.....another thing is try to play differently....try to outsmart your opponent....lets say you are in a BR fight....dont just stafe....add variety....jump, crouch...any of those....also try to do things that you arent comfortable doing at times....dont do what the others do...if everyone is on Top GOld on Guardian....dont rush middle....either A) go underground or B) my fav...flank through blue room, shotty corner.... :) hope these help...also work with every weapon......know where all weapons are..and learn some nifty shortcuts :)
