Anyone have any ideas for some 2vs2 strategies that we can employ when the playlist is released?
I'm guessing ascension will be one of the maps so i'd say probably get the sniper at the small tower since it constantly respawns and grab the rockets and have the rockets protect the guy with the sniper and just hole up over there.
At Ivory Tower holding the top for the sniper could also be a viable strategy since the rockets are just a stone throw away.
All in all i think basically holding the rifles and rockets will be the key. I dont think the sword will be as effective due to the lack of targets.
yeah if what you said is true about them changing the weapon sets on some of the maps then the combo will be gone and that would have been the only real threat on any of the maps you mentioned above. now you will just have to watch out for them throwing grenades from afar because dam they hurt.
Think not disdainfully of death, but look on it with favor; for even death is one of the things that Nature wills.
i think the person with rockets get the shotgun on ascension and sit crouched at the foot of the small tower ... then when they come around the corner to kill the sniper they will get a shell in the head .... i have goten alot of my kills doing that at ascension b/c its a place where alot of ppl go.
for ivory .... i think a good place would be the ramp with the overshield ... i have seen a team hold that ramp the whole game... and the rockets are just around the corner ... and with the sniper having a shotgun or sword for the short range fighting ..it would be difficult to take that area...
i also think that warlock will be a 2 vs 2 map ... the only thing i can say about that is get both shotguns and sit under the center platform where the handguns are and just wait till they come through and blast the hell out of them!!!!!
Out in this cold hearted world is a warm sense that comes from only one. It is true cause his name states what kind of person he is. With honor comes glory and with glory comes GLORY GAMER
the shotguns are on a time respawn at warlock though... i think that map will just be whatever team is better because there really isnt any strong point or strong weapons to control

sue and i were playing 2v2 yesterday, we won a few and got up to level 3's...then we went to pizza hut w/ some friends, came back and we were 1's
something was fucking up with the levels yesterday
yeah but holy crap did we trash those teams we played against... we are yet to play a strong team though... once they stop de-leveling us hopefully we can work our way up to some competition
Until I finally get good with a Sniper, I'm staying away from that variant. I played it with my roommate yesterday (Ugh... ) and we got fucking owned on Beaver Human set. All they did was get control of the SNipe and Rockets and sat on top of the cliff protecting each other and grabbing the overshield every time it respawned. We couldn't do shit..
Yeah basically it boils down to controlling rockets and snipes and camping the OS... some maps make that easier than others like ivory tower and beaver creek... ascension it a whole different story... however ive had more success at ascension than anywhere else
yeah ascension might be the biggest differential in the gameplay, and by that i mean it's tough for a team to get an advantage over the other by way of controlling weapons and position, it's pretty even and it comes down to who is better at halo2
how about 2vs2 ctf at warlock... any plans for that? i say usually get the flag and go through the portal... but sometimes it might be more appropriate to jump across the middle,,, like if the other team is on the ground floor after respawning and nowhere near a battle rifle
i say jump to the middle and atleast get the flag to that middle platform ... there your team mate can get it

that's a tough spot to defend tho... multiple angles from many vantage points
if you take it through the portal there's limited places they can hit you from and most of those places can be controlled by ur partner if he's got a BR
yeah steve is right... the portal works fairly well... however sometimes the center works if the other guys are dead and in the process of respawning because it usually puts them on the ground and if ur on the ledges they cant get you effectively... but i'd say take the portal 95% of the time
