Subject: MLG in Reach

Show Faith/Defy Fate

I hope not. Im not MLG but I don't think they suck. MLG is apart of what makes H3 a pain in the blam! Not to discredit the origional MLG players, I think they are deserving of their title but these little wannabe gammers who pose as "the best" and then quit are annoying/hilarious to say the least. Anyway I think MLG should keep their community but scratch the open playlist in Halo Reach. What do you think?

Sgt. Johnson: Now listen up! Back in my day, we didn't have fancy tanks! We had sticks. Two stick and a rock for the entire platoon! And we had to share the rock! You should consider yourself very lucky marines!

Agreed they take the game so seriously and ruin online by trash talking all the time

Huh? Are you saying there shouldn't be an MLG playlist in Halo: Reach? That depends on if there is a big enough following of competitive players to warrant such a playlist. Of course MLG would want to get it's organization some exposure but it's up to Bungie wheher to include one or not.

You don't have to play in the MLG playlist. So what if there are annoying kids who pose to be MLG? Does it really matter?

There will always be trash talkers, whether they are MLG or not. An open-playlist is fine. An open playlist won't change annoying kids from saying "I'm MLG, U Sux Bcuz you Rn't!"

Exactly. And Im just saying that they shouldn't or if they did then make its participants earn their way in by achieving a certain rank or something. Don't just let little old bk assume the title of MLG and then get wiped out by the competition.

As long as Halo isn't designed with MLG in mind, I don't give a crap if they have a presence when Reach launches.

But that is the fun in MLG, competing with anyone who says they are good enough to play in that playlist.

MLG is mainly a competitive playlist, it basically screams (You need a TEAM to do well), you assemble a team, and you go in. Single players who go in are more then likely bad, and they will complain about players on their team being bad.

Well MLG is focused on communication and teamwork. Not the skill of a person. I have faced more then enough teams of 20's, but they were teams, and they certaintly weren't better then me in a 1v1 scenario, but they would communicate, and I would get triple teamed.

They ruin the online experience by taking the game way too seriously, and if they lose they like spaz out and scream at all the other players and make excuses on why they lost like "I felt bad for you guys, so I let you win" or "You guys suck"

  • 06.29.2009 9:39 AM PDT

This game should be about fun.
If MLG is so Major League where is the sportsmanship?

So I'm guessing each playlist should contain no ranks, only guns that shoot out fluffy kittens that explode on impact and no gravity, plus 300% speed, right?

A game can have social playlists, and competitive playlist, ranked and hardcore being competitive. Social for the fun of it.

There are more then enough players that like playling competitvely. I don't see why it has to be "ONE OR THE OTHER!!!!!!!!!"

Ok what if they made it like prestiege mode in COD. Only 50's can unlock the MLG playlist. It says expect the best of the best in the description.

Why do you want to limit people's abiltity to play the game?
Can you not forsee the uproar that would cause in the community?
Do you not see how many people would boost to get to a 50 to play in that playlist?
Do you not see how small of a population would be in that playlist?

Any hardcore playlist should allow anyone to play in them.

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

God I hope not! :/

MLG is a tiny population, more of the trashtalkers online are people like you who hate MLG.

I don't play MLG but I would much rather see Reach designed for them than dumbed down for the casual audience.

I liked how I wasn't very good at Halo 2 when I first got it because the skill gap was much wider. It took practice to even get above being a decent player. When I stopped playing Halo 2 I wasn't great but I was better than the average player.

I'm hoping we see gamplay more like Halo CE. Less balancing issues, less auto aim and no melee lunge. All guns had decent range and the vehicles were powerful but not easy to use. The only balancing problem was the overpowered pistol and that wasn't too bad.

We're building a better world...all of them, better worlds.

I kind of like the way things are now: Bungie designs their game to be fun for anyone and everyone who wants to play. MLG finds what makes Halo a conventional shooter and emphasizes that via the wonderful custom game and Forge options. Everyone wins.

I don't think we need to worry about Bungie's motivations. Reach will be a fun game, no doubt, and it will be customizable so that anyone will be able to play it to suit their own style.

That's the way the industry is heading, and Bungie is at the forefront of that.

Lol, those people are all "MLG"? Since when? More of the idiots online who talk trash are people like you who hate MLG and all it stands for. MLG is a tiny population. Yours is large.

Wow you are an ignorant SOB.

Where did I say MLG can't be competitive? My question was, where is the sportsmanship?
Your a PRIME example of why I made my post. One day you may find out what it takes to be a true professional.

I don't think you have to worry about that. The MLG community is a small percentage of the target audience of bungie games.
