I don't care about level numbers. It's a stupid number for some freakin geek to think he's better than the next geek. Thing is, there a some people out there with lives that only play once in a while.... and it's going to be bulls**t if I have to go on as a level one and play against 7 people that were level 20 last week. I have already become so disgusted with the time it's taken for cheat fixes, the lack of punishment against KNOWN cheaters with names like "Standby1212" that never get punished, the already flawed matchmaking system (where I play slayer and am matched against level 22 "team slayer" people), and the fact that we have to PAY FOR DLC... I hardly play at this point. If the stats are reset, I'll be trading this pile of garbage game in.

Also, if the cheaters stop playing and stay at level 50, who cares? It's not going to ruin my life or make me question my freakin' manhood if someone keeps a stupid level in a video game that means nothing, because they didn't "deserve" it.


And, for the person who said "Only cheaters don't want stats reset"... you are a moron. The people that want stats reset are level 17+ people that can't go any higher, can't get any better, and want a chance to "PWNZORS!" a bunch of lower level "N00BZ!! OMG WTF!!" because they can't beat anyone at the levels they're currently on.

I'm guessing no, because I asked him that exact question, and never got a reply and it wasn't answered. So, they'll stop "cheating", and all the 15 year old "PROZ!!!111oneone" will just use this stupid superjump glitch to hide with the flag/bomb.... and the game will still suck ass.

you know, I know this has been said but I really do hope they reset the stats. The only people who really would have a problem with this are the cheaters because they no longer can be high level. And standbying is so old.............just old

Don't reset the stats, keep the cheaters up high as their punishment, let them get pummelled over and over until they smarten up and level down to where they belong.


I absolutely agree with this statement...leave our levels alone that way the cheaters belong where they should and get their asses kicked and knocked down to where they belong...

Ok listen up bungie, you guys are doing a great job with everything, but as soon as you guys bring out the patch or whatever it is that you guys are doing to stop stand by, i INSIST that you RESET the STATS. Because i have been stand by'd wayyyy too many time to not be reset, my Stats are just about ruined because of all these cheaters, and for all those people who actually work for there stats, if you got ur stats up this far with stand by, you can sure as hell do it again, only this time there is no stand by for those no life losers.

p.s. i owned stk ogre 2

Actually, Mr. Assume, Ive never even seen the "halo 3 wishlist".

May I just call you Mr. Ass? Ok. I also thought about the dynamic wind conditions as well, and that would be too much. Just, at random times, maybe not even at all, but the snow, or rain, etc., could pick up. Or, hey...what about if it got to be evening, or night...on a level?

Or if the sun could shine at certain angles and give the masterchief a bit of a blind sunspot on his visor?

No wait, says the nerds...the master chiefs visor is comprised of microscopic endotronic corpuscular network UV mainframe station dealies. Oh, I see!

The big thing that I think would be cool? Online Multiplayer campaign! Have you and 7 of your buddies go up against the armies of the ...people..that are bad? Whatever they're called?

Wow, that reminds me that I've played campaign mode maybe a dozen times in the 4 months I've owned the game. You just get sucked in to the multiplayer mode.

Mix campaign and multiplayer, that would be a neat option.

Heres some ideas for new weapons

A bomb. Yah! Like the one in the bomb game? Only you'd sneak it into an enemy base, set it, and FORGET IT BABY! Anyone within a certain distance would of course die..

And ya know what...Maybe a combat knife...Like every other FPS out there? They have a combat knife...

And HEY!! Oh my god! Check this out. The only flying machines available are covenant-issue. How about a human flying machine like a copter or some crap.

Whoa! Jetpacks would be the SHIZZLES.

And if we could choose from more than just two player models? Wouldn't you love to be a brute, or one of those skeleton looking things. That would be awesome!

The ability to create custom emblems would be shweet. If we could FTP them to the box? Or...Send them to Bungie.net for pending approval (No boobs, etc)

More feedback options would be nice. Like...bad attitude, or bad session, or this guy is a dork

Gotta go

Aight, This how it all boils down to it. The stats need to be resseted. It has to be the new age in Halo2 Experience i agree that it was taken too long and some that need to be banned have not been baned, also i do agree that work takes time. i like the $20 price tag, it good, at the end of the day peaople gotta eat too, you know? But yea it has taken a while. Stats being reseted means that we KNOW there is actually something being DONE about CHEATERS, Right now i see nothing really bein done, all i do is hear news. "Belive half of what you see, none of what you hear"- Jay-Z "Ignorant S**t"...Stats reseted = The Halo2 "Re-Birth"

I don't know whether I like this idea:

Posted by: Wisgary
Reset the levels, and make them behind-the-scenes. That way we are still paired up with people within our own class, but the idiots who abuse this system get no incentive to stand-by and cheat their way to high-level-"heaven".


Or this idea better

Posted by: eleVader
Don't reset the stats, keep the cheaters up high as their punishment, let them get pummelled over and over until they smarten up and level down to where they belong.


I think that in the future, it would be great to keep people's stats hidden, but then again how do I know where on the food chain I am? I don't look at my 12 in TS and feel that it makes me a better person, but it does tell me that there are a lot of people out there who are WAY better than I am. I like knowing that I am getting better (moving up in levels) as opposed to getting worse (moving down). I hope that there is some way for Bungie to find a happy medium between making the stats less important and continuing to punish cheaters.

After giving it some thought, I think that it would be best to leave the cheaters where they are, and let them loose match after match. This would be a great punishment for the cheaters who haven't been caught YET!

ok now b4 everyone franticly yells at me, every ligit person here hates thoses da*n standbyers and who knows who the best player and clan is anymore, so I say when to stand by patch comes out bungie should reset the stats, now I know that this would upset many people but if your as good as you ranking says then why don't you merely play to get it back because if its that high then you must enjoy it right? all im saying is that the cheates should be taken off the leader boards and its impossible to tell who is actually a true player so, why not most good players would kill to have a second chance at improving their win loss ratio
