They should reset the stats.Cheaters will get nothing if they do. If you are good at the game then you can get your level back.Think of it this way, if your a level 20 you can become a level 25 without the cheaters.Anyone who thinks otherwise is a cheater.

defintly reset stats. i really wish something would be said about the MLG playlist


Totally agree - If you dont reset them the Cheaters will stay up there and wont come down as they wont play it - Deffo reset the stats and take Coag out of Team Slayer, Burial Mounds assault out of Skirmish, and also take shotties out of slayer

add MLG instead of shotties and coag - take fiesta Asencion out too cos if you dont spawn with rockets (which happened yesterday) then its impossible to take out the banshee - take fiesta out full stop infact

If you reset the stats you should not reset rumble pit, because ppl dont cheat in that plus i dont want to lose my level 20 that I erned unlike cheaters. Altho i dont want to lose my other two 19s i still say reset them because out of every 10 games i get standbyd 6 now, its getting really bad... i think you should wait till the cheaters buy the new maps, THEN BANN THEM ALL!!!

Yes you should reset everyones rank and start fresh. Too many people put too much importance on their rank. They forget we are supposed to be enjoying ourselves. Besides, if you're truly a level 20 and they start everyone from scratch, you should breeze through the competition and get your rank back in no time. The only level 20's who should be worried are the ones who cheated to attain that rank in the first place.

Alright, all the news sounds pretty good and all, but i have a good question. and PLEASE reply....

My xbox Fails to load the map often, and i have been told this is due to an old xbox in poor condition, and some say its because of a scratched disk (its in good condition). which one is true. also, due to the condition of my box, i am planning to buy another xbox. if i buy the new maps and content, will i be able to transfer all of the content and my gamertag to the new xbox?

Please reply - FeaR -

Question, and forgive me if i didnt hear before, but what are the new playlists goin to be, when will we hear about them. I know about the 2v2 and im REAL happy about it, its gonna be loads of fun to kick ass with your best buddy by your side. I really cant wait. But what else have we got in store for us? I heard a lot of questions of Big Team Slayer or Big Team Skirmish a while back, are you guys doin that? maybe just throw me a bone, i dont care what size.

One of the biggest things I want to see identified and eradicated is the host advantage.
I'm sick and tired of either:

A) Me and my big bad 15, another 15 and two 14's don't get host. We are then paired against a team of 19,19,18,15. WTF?!?!?

or

B) Actually getting host, but then it taking 10 minutes to find a group of people who don't back out because they didn't get host.

It's absolutely ludacris. Teams should be paired up with a MAXIMUM (read, AT THE MOST) a 2 level discrepancy. (i.e. A team of 15s and 14s gets paired up with ONLY players ranked 13-17).

I hate being a level 14-15 and consistently playing against players ranked 18 and higher. I thought the point of the level was so that players could be matched against those of similar skill level to ultimately have a fun, enjoyable experience. It's absolutely NO FUN being paired with against a team who is up to 6 levels your superior. And on top of that, the higher levels being able to manipulate the system so that they have host (which automatically gives you Red Team, and damn near guarantees that your team will have the highest ranks).

So, I implore you, please make this right.

That being said, I think that stats should DEFINATELY BE RESET! Cheaters be damned, and crybabies be given tissues. I don't care, I'll lose my level. Oh no. Got to play Halo 2 more. Woe be me.

Now that I've actively campaigned my viewpoints, on with the compliments.

I CAN NOT WAIT for Warlock. There was nothing better in Halo CE than a good ol' fashioned round of shotty's in the circular arena. Of course, my circle of friends called our shotty-only no-shields variant of the classic game type "KILLTACULAR" because that's what would scream out from one of the 4 T.V.'s set up in my buddy's basement at any given moment. Those were the days. The only thing better than a Wizard Killtacular, mayhaps, was a LONGEST (starts chant: BRING IT BACK! BRING IT BACK!) Killtacular. Or a Hang 'Em High (repeats chant: BRING IT BACK! BRING IT BACK!) Running Riot (our highly stylized game type used only on Hang 'Em High where you had human weapons on map, started with a pistol, and there were no shields. Hence the name).

All-in-all, I cannot wait for the Updates, the Maps, the Fixes. I wish all points could be addressed, but I realize that is just not feasable.

I'll definately be buying the maps as they come out, and I'll also buy the disc when that comes out. I'm f'n hardcore. But I love the first two free ones.

In the immortal words of Banky Edwards (Chasing Amy): Bring on the free hooch.

Hi Bungie, A Mom here, regarding the stats, I am amazed how you down play the stats role in this game. Although your inclined to advise people they should not brag, no reason, but that their level merely represents their matchmaking level of playing.......Hello again, that gives bragging rights!

But we do forget we are playing with boys here and they really want to talk and talk and talk about their level before, during and after the games.

It would be so peaceful if you hid the levels, but would it be as much fun?

Tell me>

Hmm... What if they reset the levels and in about 6 hours or so you get your level back? That's what will happen High Levels. Think about it...if you play "n00bs" then your rank will go up very fast (check the ranking system) i mean it's just that easy. You will be able to brag again in a matter of days and WITH NO CHEATERS!!! wow isnt't that sooo much better? I think it is. I know some of you don't want your ranks gone but...for every great thing there has to be sacrifice. Jesus? Sacrifice...The fear of nuclear bombs? Sacrifice of Japan. We need the bad to lead to greatness. Good will always prevail, sure it sound hella corny, but thats just the way the world turns...accept it...And people will come back when the stand-by is gone...Thawmas...I think that was you....but yea..people will come back...Halo is a great game...People have to realize that it's just that...a GAME. Reset the stats...Give us a reason to play again.

Can someone explain why when I check the scoreboards, it will show a clan as a level 50, but then I click their most recent game and it shows them as a level 3!? 3 is a far cry from 50. I also tracked a clan that jumped from a 48 to a 50 in just two games playing lower ranked teams. Something's gotta be wrong with this scoring.
