Suicide

Suicide is the term given to when a player kills him/herself. This is possible to do in Halo: CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo Wars, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, and Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary.
==Gameplay==
During gameplay, a player has the physical option to commit suicide. While this isn't the objective of the game, and doesn't benefit the player in any way, it is a regular occurrence during the games.
===Methods===
====Campaign====
During gameplay, the player can commit suicide in several ways. The player can kill himself/herself by the use of their own weapons. An example being standing near a self thrown grenade, or firing a Rocket launcher at the player's feet or nearby wall.
Another method, is to crouch down and stick yourself with a Plasma Grenade or a Brute Spike Grenade. If done quickly, you can run or jump in the midst of enemies or players killing them and yourself. Comparable to a Kamikaze Grunt.
A second method would involve less effort. The player could encounter a group of enemies and allow themselves to be killed. This method isn't technically suicide, as the player doesn't kill himself/herself, but does cause it. This, like any other death, causes the player to restart from the last checkpoint. This may also lose a player points if they are on the Halo 3 Meta-game.
An advanced suicide method is possible on a metal floor, where the player can crouch, and shoot Needler rounds at their own foot (However, there is no super detonation). If done correctly, the player can eventually commit a successful suicide, as the needler rounds bounce off the floor into the player's foot.
One last method is to stand next to a stationary energy barrier wielding a non-energy weapon (e.g. Assault rifle, Shotgun.) Shooting the energy barrier while standing next to it will cause your shots to bounce back at you, harming you and, eventually, killing you.
====Multiplayer====
Either during a system link, or online play on Xbox Live, the player can use the same methods as can be used during campaign. However, when a player commits suicide on multiplayer, the announcer will say "Suicide!"
Suicide during multiplayer loses a point for a player.
You will also get a respawn penalty.
In Halo Wars, causing a base to self-destruct can be seen as a method of suicide, same as using The Prophet of Regret's Cleansing Beam on your base or the Chieftain's Vortex ability, as Arbiter's power will not affect your own base.
