Subject: Boosting in reach...

Bungie please use something other that TrueSkill in Reach. It makes it way too easy for people to boost. And boosting completely defeats the purpose of ranks.

What rating system should they use then? Please explain to me in detail how it would work, because saying "I don't like it, get rid of it and come up with a solution for me." neither will get them to do anything or make a topic worth discussing.

I don't know, just something new and different. Bungie's creative, they'll think of something.

idea: no quitting/return to menu option.

And then there are those who would simply use the powercord method of exiting the match. What then?

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Halo 3 taught me the importance of ignoring the haters and cheaters. You just have to enjoy it for yourself and only then will you fully enjoy the game.

this is a good system, it works well. There will always be cheaters and you can't find a system that will stop people from cheating.

In TrueSkill, it is somewhat easy to boost using a complicated trick. However, boosting using the simplest methods is completely impossible. In addition to that, the complicated boosting still requires more skill from the to-be-boosted than the easy boosting.

Get your CoD -blam!- out of here!

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.

It doesn't matter what system is used, people will boost and cheat regardless.
