Hard work? It's a game. If you didn't have fun playing you're a waste of oxygen. Nobody said you'd get a prize for your rank.

DOES THIS MEAN HALO 3 IS MADE BY BUNGIE?!?

You know, alot of people complain that "blah,blah,blah, rank resets will make people leave!" You're wrong. I was here last time they reset everything, and this may come as a shock, but not many people left. People are leaving Halo 2 to play new games, not because of rank resets. I think you need to take some Halo breaks. Maybe go outside? That big thing in the sky might burn you for a few seconds, but I promise, it'll be OK. It's your friend!

You can run. But you will only die tired.

They did it so they can force you to pay the 4 dollars for the new maps

I think the fact that Jack Thompson is still alive is proof that gaming does not turn people into violent killers.

i have mixed feelings about the rank reset

i had just got my 29 in slayer and my 28 in snipers so obviously losing them was a bit of a blow

however i quite like the idea of everybody starting out again on a clean sheet, however it will make matches very very unpridictable, for instance i went on this morning with my friends with full intention of going for lvl 50s :P

however we played 8 games and in those games, 6 of them we cam up against some totaly amazing guys, well they maybye werent the best but a lot of them were playing very well as a team, they had obviously got together like me and my friends so they could own together
in the other 2 games we came up against people who hadnt thought like this and were obviously just going into machmaking on their own. im pretty sure we raped them :D
itl take a while for the ranks to eventualy even out but im not that botherd because in 5 days i will be pwning on the beta anyway so it doesnt matter
after that i probably wont be able to play halo 2 again :p

oh, and;

I am glad they rest, I was 28s in most everything (was up to a 31 during they heydays) but once you start getting that high the instance of cheaters and rank boosters was making the game less fun to play so hopefully it will go back to how it was the first 3 months the game came out. I'll be back on tonight!

A warrior does not give up what he loves but he finds the love in what he does.

Since the updates I really haven't been cheated against once. Quit -blam!-ing they knew and know what they are doing.


And if you're all so much higher then those low "jack offs" then you should be able to beat tem easily and get a lot of wins.

They had better have ranked games for Halo 3 or bungie is going to really f*** up their rep.

You've got to be kidding me, lol

Man, this was a user-created thread. Not a Moderator thread. So he's right. Bungie didn't ask for our opinion on this. They dont need to. Its their game. Granted some loyalty would be appreciated, but it is by no means written in the EUA that Bungie can't do anything we dont like. They can do ...whatever they want.

Anyway, aside from that, my opinion on the rank reset and the maps yadda yadda... is this; It is unfortunate, because many players did strive to achieve their ranks, as well as their KD ratio and I can see the KDR being really screwed up by this. But, as I said before. There really isnt anything anyone can do about it. As for people leaving... The people who I play with, and most people I know who do play, play because its enjoyable, not because of the rank that they've achieved, so no, I don't believe that this will affect people to the point of pushing them away, some yes, but many, no. As for rank being simply for matchmaking purposes; unbelieveable. Sure, the practical use of the ranks is for matchmaking, but if that were soully the case, then why even display them? I mean, if they were simply matchmaking tools, I would have no problem not even knowing what rank I was.

Anyway, I'm done. But know that I sympathize with the people who have lost legit rankings, and laugh in the faces of the cheaters who were simply 50 hunters. Irony's a -blam!-.

well i dont know about that they will have a skirmish mode in halo 3 but i dont think it will suck if they dont and some maps they made for halo3 are just for ctf and stuff like that so they will but back to halo 2 mm i dont like the fact that in btb now the team with the most guests will most likely lose i have played a few games and it seem to be the case so i dont think you will see many good plp in the new btb cus of the fact of the guests and its like team training no one TALKS!!!! at all most of the games i played was me saying hey get the flag and them jumping around but o well i will not say any more all i know is i wont play the new btb any more its realy bad IMO

I couldn't agree more with you Halo 2 online will suck now w/out btb skirmish. Can someone from Bungie tell us why you screwed w/a system that everyone enjoyed? You, Bungie, are screwing things up royaly!!!!!!!! Change it back for the love of God!!!!!

I only pray the same idiot's who did this have nothing to do with Halo 3 multiplayer.


Well, obviously bungie has to make halo 3 multiplayer... so your prayer is useless...

Look ..these people dont care about cheaters or reseting nothing they just did it for the $4 bucks...they know how many people play online
so they come up with this great idea to have every1 forced to pay in order to play...thats how i see it...do the math $4x all the ppl that play...then
ull see the reason...when the new maps came out some ppl downloaded and some didnt so there u go...great idea bungie.. honestly the new maps suck
and now u could be in matchmaking with someone that use to be rank 40...when u were only rank 20-25...i been loosing every game and i was rank 20...hmm ( oh by the way those " great idea bungie " were sarcastic )...ya suck!
