RIP Halo 2

15 is a safe bet.
edit: I'm a 47 in halo 3 and a 27 in halo 2. And i've played halo 2 for a while. You will suck, SUCK, at first. It is so much harder and takes way more skill than halo 3. It'll probably take you a while to even reach 20.

Like a 20, Halo 3 ranks are nothing.

well im a 50 in Halo 3, but I was a 43 in halo 2 before the rank reset. Halo 2 is an EASY game, it just has a hard ranking system.

o and BR Rapage, don't say that Halo 3 ranks are nothing when you cannot even get past a 32 in Halo 3. You are obviously bad and have no idea what you are talking about. Don't pretend that you are good.

Sure, let's see who can wet the fire hydrant the best, let's measure each other's virtual -blam-s because it really matters oh so much. Get a life you guys.

Same boat man. Halo 3 I'm a 45 and I went to Halo 2. I really sucked when at it before Halo 3 came out and I still suck. I'm at an 18 right now in slayer. But I also went from Bumper Jumper to default so its kind of hard.

it's not that halo 2 is harder, it just is a lot harder to rank up and I bet the only people left playing it now are really dedicated fans which means they're probably really good. Think about it there aren't many noobs left on halo 2.

agreed.. I went back to halo 2 (no 360 at home.. played friends at school) and it took a lot of getting used to.

I've been playing on and off for about a month.. and there are A LOT of skilled players who used to be in the 40's who are playing halo 2 either due to lack of interest in 3, or want there old levels back which were wasted by the reset.

None the less, halo 2 is a fun time.

You will probably reach a 20 max

Lol, you fail lad. Halo 3 ranks are nothing. I suck at Halo 3 and topped 35 in a week.
I'm an above-average Halo 2 player and after the first reset i got to 36 i think - and that took me like 5 months.

And for your question; I think you'll get to 10-15, then you'll just get bored becuase of the lack of people that's playing.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

Halo3 ranks might be cooler......but its way to easy to get ranked up.
Halo2 the ranks have more meaning its WAY harder to rank up.

Im a lvl. 23 in snipers...i could get a lvl. 30 in Halo3 if i had a 360.

I agree, but could you elaborate on what you mean by a difficult ranking system?

I think he's talking about the fact that in H2 you can play 40 games to gain one level, then lose one game and lose that level.

it takes only 5 games in a row to level up once you get to a 44+

what makes it harder is if you lose 1 game you have to win 2-3 games in a row to make it up
