Question: Do you guys check how many kills some people have, b/c sometimes its standby, when the guys get like 35 kills a game(i got standbyed), but occasionally i get like 16-25 kills a game, by acutally killing people.

Just wondering...

I think that reaseting the stats is realy stupid. When we all start out at level 1, we will most likely be matched with people way above our skill. Also, the only reason bungie is doing this is because they are to lazy to scan the games and find all cheaters. It does seem like alot to scan every game, but with the tech weve got they could do it.

OK, so first of all no your friends list won't get reset, Bungie isn't really capable of doing that because your friends list isn't just a Halo 2 thing. Your friends list remains the same in every game, it's more an XBOX thing.

NOW TO ALL THE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT GLITCHES BEING REMOVED. First of all thank god no one complained about getting rid of standby cuz we'd have 20 pages of replies to that person. This is to the people who are mad about sword glitch, boundries, and super jumps being changed. The boundries are being changed cuz people take flags and bombs off the map and just hide forcing the other team to quit. If you say oh that sucks cuz I just like to go up there and explore, you're an idiot. If you've been up there once then it's not like you need to go back cuz you've already seen all that's up there. It's just open land and maybe a rock or 2, yeah the invisible staircase was cool but seeing it once was all I needed. And the sword glitch is just stupid, if you've ever actually been killed by it in matchmaking you know how dumb it is. And super jumps are cheating, i know some of you don't think it ist, but you're performing a specific sequence of movements to trick and manipulate the game's code, you suck. None of these things add to the fun of the game, they only make it worse. So to all of you little cheaters can go to hell cuz you're about to get F ucked up come monday.

First of I want to thank bungie for this update. I am 120% happy with all the changes that is goin to take place this monday. I am big fan of Halo CE and the melee and nade improvements will definitely make H2 more like Halo CE.

Great idea resetting the stats, cuz it will teach the cheaters a lesson. I was reading through some of the replies by ppl and many were complaining about the stats being resetted. I personally believe that you should be able to get back to the same level or higher if your current level was achieved legitimately.

I do have a question for bungie about a problem me and my friends noticed. When you shoot a rockets or throw a grenade as you are about to die, the rocket or grenade dissapears. This is not an online issue because we have tested it on split screen. I wanted to know if you guys will be addressing this issue on the AU.

Once again I love you Bungie for hearing our cries : )

THANK GOD! 1st of all i'd just like to say the weapon balances are the greatest idea and this epic halo 1 feel of gernade tosses and melee attacks being well timed is great instead of just dying in like 1.7seconds cause of dual weilders...and resetting the leaderboards is just GENIOUS....i made a post about it in weekly update so i wont ramble on about that but just BEAUTFUL JOB BUNGIE!!! you guys know how to keep the online players happy oh and for the record....**** the standby'ers!

Never Trust Robots

Posted by: AscendantLaos
It will be much more difficult because it is all luck who you are matched with and you can get matched with 4 people who were lvl 30 or 4 people who were level 2 or 3. I dont think all ranks should be restet ...i have faced cheaters a couple times but personally i dont care i beat them most of the time anyway


O_O ............. . . . . . . . . . . .

What kind of nonsense is this? When you first played the game you were paired against people that were better than you, and it will be exactly the same this time. You'll win some games and lose some games -> the better you do the closer you'll get to people of your actual skill level. Besides you have nothing to lose with the reset and everything to gain- eg: you're hopefully better than when you first started, so you'll rank up quicker and have the benefit of starting fresh with the new fixes.

PS Learn to talk less trash- if you are a legit level 50, then feel free, otherwise, keep it to yourself

I'm with you on that one. Every one will the same level. Some of the fromer low low levels will be fighting fromer 17, 20, 25 and 30s. It'll be hard for some people to get their levels up until the higher levels get their levels back.

I think the update is a great idea. I think that there was another issue that could have been addressed. I find it wierd that I can fire a rocket launcher and get sniped or killed half a second later and my rocket does not continue on to the target. I am just trying to figure out how my death could cause my rocket to suddenly die out. I see needlers still flying through the air after my death or after I kill the person shooting them, also grenades are still able to go off. Just curious.

Great, I'm glad the update is going to stop cheaters and glitches and whatnot. But powering down the pistol combo and plasma/smg combo. Give me a break!! Now everyone is going to be running around with BR combos with no way of taking them down. Bungie needs to tone down the BR combo, Its ridiculous. 2 shots and you're dead, from short or long range. Keep the strength of the other combos cause its the only thing you've got against the BR unless you have a sniper.
