Subject: Level 25+ matched up with lvls 12-16

Ok, so we all know that there are great Halo 2 players out there, and then there are mediocre players and then there are just noobs. Bungie tried to separate these basic classes with the matchmaking system and it worked (for a lil bit anyway.) But now, when i play or when anyone i know plays. We'll be in Double team or snipers and everyone will be matched together according to the rank of that game type. But when u check the players list u find that the other teams members highest lvls are 25+ while my highest rank is like 17. There is no way a 17 should be playing someone else that is that much higher. I really hope bungie fixes this in H3 because for those of us who arent pro and arent excellent players, it really takes the fun factor or even the drive to play away.

P.S and i know that people are going to reply back saying "oh you just suck or you are a noob or whatever."
Just have a lil consideration to see where the lower lvl players are coming before you start to flame on how lower lvls suck and how we just need to get better.

thats why all my friends are at least 20+. Im a 22 and 17+ in all other team games. The reason is I play people better than me. i have a friend that is a 37 and one is a 31 so.. by playing with people better you kinda adapt and play like a higher rank than yourself. so when you go into MM you Kick azz.

if you want to send a FR to BlueMonkey99.(hurry im changing my GT).

well they might have like a 30 in snipes cause they are good at snipes. But then they might go to smg start slayer and suck. Because its a diff gametype. Diff gametype = diff rank.

yea i understand the different gametype different rank but if they are (juts for example) a 50 in slayer they are oviously going to be at least half as good at skirmish or double team. but yea.. well back to gettin my ass handed to me till H3.

I have walked among man and angels for three thousand years...
time has no begining, no end, no purpose...
i wander the earth, seeking forgivness for my own crimes against God and man...
i wish to seek death, destruction over the light, but the light cannot be extinguished...
i live in a prison of my own demise...i am lost in time...

yeah, me and my buddy, both highest ranks 23 at the time, in double team got paired up with a 28 and a 29, and their highest ranks were in the 30's. WTH?!?!?!?

that isnt necessarily true. the way you play,skills, experience is still the same if there is a lvl 30 slayer playing a double team lvl 17 he is still gonna -blam!- cause of his skills double team really is just slayer or skirmish with cut down of players in a team. his skills in aiming or using a weapon isnt diminished so yea it kinda is problem but hey think of it as a good pratice and dont get discouraged if you won then good you beat skilled players if you lose....what is there to really lose your rank,so you gained experienced and got better and they really cant brag about winning against lower skilled people who started playing or w/e

thats cool, isnt that how h2 was when it first came out? im pretty sure it was.

  • 09.02.2007 3:04 PM PDT

whoa thats awesome. that puts a everything into a whole new perspective! thanks!

  • 09.02.2007 3:05 PM PDT

yea so about the topic of my this thread... i just played team skirmish and im only level 7 and of course in that game type i so was everyone else or at least around that level. come to find out their highest levels of play were 23+. my point and case... 7's should NOT play against anyone who is lvl 23+ in ANY game type. I guess all the cheating and this are the reason people some people dont like to play h2 online anymore.

/sigh 23 miserable more days until the beast strikes.
