The H2 ranking system showed considerably more skill than the TrueSkill one used in H3. You can see this in many ways. First, there are definitely a lot more 50's in playlists, where in Halo 2 you would rarely find a legit person above 45. Also, in Halo 3 you can go in with a party (like in my case) and win countless number of games in a row (like on this account) and now go up one level. This is due to the TrueSkill Ranking system, where winning and winning hurts your chances of going up. I find that lame for many reasons, especially when you go into a game and see a person a higher level than you who has played less games but went in by themselves. Halo 2 allowed you to track your level game by game with the XP bar on Bungie. It took around 3 games to go up after you hit around level 28 or so and this is where some players got stuck and others went on and got to a higher rank.

^^ You seriously believe that people were not abo ve 45 because it was harder to rank up because of the ranking system? lol, no no no, no one was above level 45 legit becuase EVERYONE ABOVE 40 MODDED. You could not rank up in halo 2 becuase of the millions of children who decided to ruin the game and mod their xbox to win. and your point about how you liked watching your stat bar online, well the reason that was abolished for halo 3 was so the children of xbox live wouldnt have any extra motivation to go out and mod their xbox so that they can see compare their "beastly downloaded skill" to other people in the online community. It its now for the pure sake of your own knowledge of how you can compare to other gamers when you play them in game. and maybe to brag to real life buddies about how they suck :P
Overal H3 ranking system > H2 but im not saying its perfect.
