no1 finds it funny this guy is a lvl 50?


link

goto the thread authors BTB games he played @ lvl 47ish and 48... look at him he played with the same people over and over all that he knew, a bunch of lvl 1s and 1 47 on the opposite team, goto the game previous to that, the 47 who lost to him was on his team prior to that. and he then won against some1 who was in this game to some1 who will be on his team in the next game.



the guy who made this thread cheated to get his lvl 50's

k i just looked at it how do u no hes cheating



well if you compare 2 games... its pretty obvious hes boosting or something... basically a group of people goin in 2 accounts each(maybe less then that mayn people) and let 1 group lose and 1 group win and they switch out 1 high lvl player each game. that seems like cheating.

I am very interested in seeing it in effect. Those who play for fun will still be playing, and hopefully it will drive away some of the rank-whores who seem only interested in leveling up. I hate games where people will betray others just so they can return the flag or hold the bomb. It's no fun to play on a team(even if I am sucking at the moment) who won't work together to protect the weaker links and communicate, instead of just broadcasting "you suck, you should quit" etc. I don't play for rank, I play for fun(I love SWAT!) Those who are good enough will get their rank back soon enough.

Playing with your friends in matchmaking that are much better than you is not cheating the system. You are supposed to play with your friends. Not many people have friends off line that are equal in skill to them, let alone three of them to enter matchmaking with. Of course skills will vary amongst groups of friends.

alrite if you were refering to me i just checked my link and it wasnt to what i wanted it to be like. roughly around page 17 this guy has a list of BTB skirm games he played. its funny how like 7 games he gets #1 then, one he gets #9.



ill explain this as best i can, he goes in with 7 lvl 1's and 9 lvl 40s, all around his level. the thing is either, they worked with their connections to to get into games together, or who would be playing BTB @ lvl 47ish in a party of 8? and to have 2 sets of parties of 8 go in @ once @ that lvl is almost a guarantee to play against them.


what he did was every game replace a person from the winning team to the losing team and then switch the person from the losing team back to the winning team for some1 who was just on the winning team.

Ive been playing Halo Since 2004 and ive been a 38 legit highest. I noticed the cheating has gone down. Recently i let my friend play and he got me down to a 26. De leveling and stuff isnt my problem. I hate going into snipers or hardcore and getting 28 kills and loosing cause my teammates.

Now that cheaters should basically be gone since the auto update ( I haven't seen any yet) the ranks may actually be accurate for once after the ranks are reset. This is the perfect time to reset the ranks, not only because of Tombstone and Derelict, but becasue cheaters have been pretty much eliminated.

You seem to have been on Halo 2 for a while... and you don't know. All right, it's understandable. The Banhammer is the mechanism Bungie uses to detect unfair play and ban people.

Rank resetting doesn't affect me and my friends/clan at all. We stopped playing ranked games a long time ago. Just too much grief dealing with cheaters, exploiters, and people who only care about winning by any means nessecary instead of having fun.

Nope. They're going to be reset sometime soon, though.

Matchmaking Playlist Update
Posted by Frankie at 4/25/2007 5:55 PM PDT
Originally we indicated that this week was our target for updating the Halo 2 Xbox Live matchmaking playlists and resetting all player rankings. We are holding this update while we investigate and fix some of the Xbox Live download problems that people have been reporting. The good news is that almost everyone who initially had issues downloading the maps should now be able to do so. However, there may be some people who are still unable to download the maps for a variety of reasons and we’re working with the Xbox Live team to narrow down the potential cause and implement the solution.


This playlist update and rank reset will probably occur next week, pending the outcome of our ongoing work with the Xbox Live team. In the meantime, you are of course able to enjoy both Tombstone and Desolation in online custom games and offline Splitscreen/System Link play. Please stay tuned to Bungie.net for the latest info. Apologies for the inconvenience.
