Hey Achronos, thank-you and all of the Bungie staff for reseting the rankings. I was very frustrated and bored playing ( not anything seriously that a six pack can't solve). For the last 4 to 5 months, I was literally stuck in levels 12 and 13. I believe that after the reset, a lot of players will be able to advance to much higher levels, for their will no more cheating.

THE FRIENDS LISTS ARE NOT BEING RESET.

Its on the front page. So stop sending messages. Most people are too damn dumb to figure out that Bungie doesn't control the friends lists.

I cant wait for the stats to be reset, its gonna be so much fun working my way up again...

does your win/lose ratio count towards your level? i mean if you suck for a while then get better can you still make it to as high a level as someone who was always good at halo?

Hurry up and reset them Bungie, i dont even wana play matchmaking untill theyre reset incase i level up and have to lose my level.

a few things....
1) i just got my soul stolen which was totally awesome
2) why were people so excited about getting some of the earliest posts on this message? doesn't that just prove that you have no life and yet you brag about it?
3)how long did it take you people to realize that the friends list reset thing was just a rumor? why in the name of carl would bungie do something like that? THERE'S NO REASON!

You guys give the stats database quite a workout, so please excuse the occassional need for the system to be shaken down. Please remember this will only affect your ability to see your game results, data collection will not be impacted. After the maintenance, the system will restart processing of your games and will take a little while to catch up to the present, but that won't last very long.


THANK YOU I was frickin scared today when I woke up with only seven playlists.I almost wet myself in the absense of Team Slayer but this Training Ground thing looks ok,are we gonna keep it?

I'm just glad they are finally reseting them all of those people complaining about having to play level 40's when they are reset you have to remember that those level 40's arent even 40's they are people who standbyed to get that level and they should be banned from halo for life i got all the way up to a 20 without standby and so could you imagine how high i would get without those dumb jerks who standby when they are losing a one on one 9 to 0. when they reset the stats it shall be a great day for HALO! and for people who play HALO on xbox live.

Let me see if I understand.

Everyone's "Rank" on XBL will be reset?

I saw where the "Leaderboards" will be reset.

"Leaderboards" are on bungie.net aren't they?

Are these the same?

I'm confused. I haven't read anywhere about any "Rank" reset.

Can anyone explain?

My feeble mind needs to know.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, dont reset the stats, i just got to level 12!

Please don't do it!!!


Dude, don't worry about it, 12 isn't that high anyways, if you are good enough it should be easy to get back up. and i don't think they are going to not reset the stats just for you.

Do you know when the stats reset? Well what happens when we get paired against people that were originally a level 45 or whatever? How would you determine the matchmaking fairness amongst the gamers and to make sure you won't get 'humped' time and time again, isn't it unfair if we arn't as good as the more experienced players (yet) and get paired against them?

Sometimes i just don't understand it. Bungie has had a flurry of activity. Why not do everything at once? Put this stupid stats update on the auto-update we had a few weeks ago(or months, i can't even remember). Bungie gives us some sweet stuff, but thats just buying time to do things like this. "There's wrong, and then there's wrong, and then there's this."- Sin City


IT projects work in a tiered pattern. You want to take down the right pieces at the right time, change them in the way that fits best, and then flick the switch back on and troubleshoot it for problems. I can't even imagine the hell they'd have on hand if they did all this at once. Not to mention, they have to manage their resources wisely, and I believe they're doing a fine job of that. They did the autoupdate one week, allowing most of the xbox live community 1 week to download it, and then the maps the next week. This kept the strain on their resources fairly low, since the autoupdate is small compared to the maps. As a result, the few people that still haven't updated their Halo 2 installation won't be putting much of a mark on the servers. If they had done it the other way around, it'd be a much different story.

I personally think they're just doing some defragging and other things to their servers right now, while the stats don't really matter. I can't really think of a better time than 3 days before stats get reset.

Read the front page -blam!-s!! EVERYONE"S STATS ARE BEING RESET GOD DAMMIT!! EVERYONE!! THAT MEANS IF YOUR A -blam!- LEVEL 3 THAN YOU WILL BE AT ZERO. This is due to cheaters. Now wtf are you guys talking about? The friends list cant be restarted because that has nothing to do with Bungie. That is like thinking that they are going to fix your hard drive from their HQ. Get your head fixed you retards.

As we are all talking about the rankings reset. I understand you want to change the ranking system to create a better bell curve an therefore better games for all. But why reset the rankings? why not just merge in the new ranking system?

Seams to me the only ones lucking out with the prevention of cheating are the high ranked cheaters who are going to suffer playing against the top ranked skilled players who will own them continuously as their ranking free falls. So frankly screw them, they disserve months of getting owned.
