Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

Who boots in Doubles?

Just deal with it. Bungie doesn't care, and nothing will be done. Cheaters run rampantly in high-level ranked but Bungie ignores it.

well if they can do it why cant i maybe i will

HALO 2 FOREVER - M.I.A.

Yes i have a Twitter and yes i voice my opinion.

Just deal with it. Bungie doesn't care, and nothing will be done. Cheaters run rampantly in high-level ranked but Bungie ignores it.

The day that bungie will care will be the day hell freezes over.

They never cared.
They never will care.

If any actual bungie employee will challenge this post then prove it to me.



Its all the reason why i play call of duty cause at least there is fair gaming in that game. Halo 3 has -blam!- for help when it comes to the massive list of host booters and modders who use aim bots like that coward of a kid named jester.

If only the laws were not to prevent judgment by execution then i would be hanging onto a gun to shoot each and every person who has booted me offline to this day.

That exact number would drastically decrease the number of players on halo 3 since the number is already a 1/5 chance you get into the same game as a booter or someone with an aimbot.

Today there is no one who can prove they are legit in their ranks higher then 40. Only the people who have played the game in 2007 and 2008 can say they are a real 50. Anyone else who got their 50 in 2009 and this year have cheated for it.


Only personal advice to give you is to give up at 40 cause from there on out its all cheaters.

Halo 3 is my favorite video game, at least until reach is out.

Well if it is true and he did boot you and make you go offline, why 1v1 him and beat him just to piss him off more?

Really? Look at that guys games and then tell me it's a faulty connection. He boots every player out and boots himself out at times to. If it was a faulty connection there is no possible way to obtain a 50. GUILTY AS CHARGED!

That statement can be debated very easily.

In response to the OP, I think that in any game, you are going to find people who abuse the system. The best you can do is file a complaint. I know that's not what you want to hear, but that is really your only option. Avoiding players also reduces your chances of playing them again. The system isn't perfect, but it will at least give you some type of help...

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

If they didn't care, Reach would be exactly like Halo 3. But Reach as many things fans asked for. Space combat? We asked for that. No BR? The majority asked for that. More armor? We asked for that. Better forge? We asked for that. Get rid of Trueskill? We asked for that. Improved voting system? We asked for that. Customizable firefight? We asked for that. Become our own spartan for Campaign? We BEGGED for that. New weapons? We didn't ask for it, but they provided.

New gametypes? We asked. Really, if we asked for all these and they gave it to us, they obviously don't care.

Edit: You also gave yourself away. You say anyone who was a 50 around 2007 and 2008 is legit. Anyone else is fake 40+. Now, either you're a rank elitist, or you must be a fake, because you aren't a 50. How does that even add to your logic? That seems opinionated, not factual. Proof. So, you're not a legit 45 are you?

Edit: OP, you can't do anything, just put him/her on your avoid, file a complaint and move on. Trust me, if people have to cheat on a video game just to feel better, then that means they must really have a pathetic life outside of video games.

Also, don't single people out. It's against the rules.

You can't do anything about it nor can bungie or microsoft. they can just ban them when they find them.

  • 06.18.2010 9:55 AM PDT

I have heard that Halo never implemented the avoidance system.

1. No one wanted space combat (they were too busy playing Star Wars)

2. Only the AR nubs asked for BR to be gone (I'm not going to sugar coat it, it's true and you know it... FFA ARs = FFA Host Check)... Oh, and more people liked the BR than people who hated it, accourding to polls and etc.

3. Armor, sure.

4. Forge, Hell yeah

5. Getting rid of Trueskill??? It's hard to find even 1 person who wants it gone! You do realize it's still there, right? Standard is just Ranked that hides ranks and allows guests. I like the Arena idea, but I also HATE how the trueskill is hidden, showing high skills shows if you will be able to find matches or not, too (It takes FOREVER when you team is all over)!

6. The voting system is anything but improved, unless 1-Flag on Powerhouse wa the best thing ever for you.

7. Custom FF, sure

8. You do realize that being our own spartan will result in him being silent, like in ODST. Master Chief was awesome, I never felt, nor cared, that I was anything but him.

9. You freaking kidding me?! After all those stupid "make ur 0wn w3apon" threads? I think your head is on backwards.

I think that covers everything... =]

Follow the Don @Don_Gino you know where
Don't mistake my kindness for something else

There used to be an email address you could report cheaters to but I think it was something MS was doing and not Bungie- I love the fellows at Bungie but if we are stating opinions on this thread I would have to agree with the people who say Bungie doesn't care about cheating, currently on Halo 3 at least- let me explain why I feel that way-

Last bungie day in the bungie day play list when everyone wanted to play the folks at bungie for a chance at recon- I have never in my life seen so many cheaters in one day- host booting, rapid fire controllers, standby/lag switching, not to mention modded modems and network hacks via router firmware- the first game I played a 5 star general on the other team forced host, booted 2 people out of the game and somehow made me spawn over and over directly under the platform he was standing on and was able to shoot me 2 or 3 times before I could even move when spawning, while the whole time telling me he was going to forcefully have sex with my mom and make me watch(he said the r word but I didn't want to print it). I muted him, avoided him, reported him for cheating and filed a voice complaint for what he said, which not only should he have been banned for but he deserved to have his face beat in; not only did any of that do any good, I ended up in a game with him again. This took place in the bugie day playlist so I figured he would be banned but guess what? He wasn't. Before the game ended he was shooting me with 1 trigger pull from br and it was killing me. Later me and a friend played a match against Japanese players which were not taking damage when we shot them and were somehow killing us with 1 or 2 trigger pulls from br. Almost every other game had a couple of 50s on the other team and of course in usual halo fashion I would get a 12 or a 7 and a 9 on my tean who would either die 20 some times or quit out, possibly booted. Rapid fire in almost ever game anyone of a high rank was in. It was the absolute worst day of halo gaming I ever experienced due to the cheating.

MS are the ones that do something about cheating if the auto cheat-detection on bugie's end doesn't, but they will only investigate cheaters after they get a certain number of cheating complaints against them. There is something running on live that will detect hard mods and ban users in countries that hard mods aren't allowed in, which currently I am only for sure is usa and canada. Live's market in other countries is so small that in some places you do not get banned for hard mods. Bugie has an automated cheating detection algorithm in place but I guess that some people have figured out the varibles and know how much time they can lagswitch or standby for; and have figure out how much data they can drop on their end(incoming data from other players) and still stay connected while not triggering the algorithm that will ban them. When playing the reach beta, unless it was seriously flawed, it seemed as if things have changed and people were disconnecting a lot more ofter, as if the perameters have changed and bungie isn't allowing people with high latency and high data loss to stay connected, and those are the two main things cheaters manipulate to cheat, besides rapid fire. I also love how bungie changed the way the weapons fire so rapid fire controllers won't give the jerks who use them an advantage.

I used to get host booted quite often. I read on a website somewhere if you enable a certain setting in your router it will keep you from getting host booted if they are using bots to disconnect you on the 3074 ports, but of course it won't stop a ddos attack. If you suspect you got host booted, make sure you get everyone's gt that was in the game. If you do a little looking around, you can find that email address I was talking about to report cheaters, and you should report them there. Also, if you can get into your router and get the ip adrresses in your log, and if you can figure out who was attacking your ip, you can report them to your isp and if they really were using a program to disconnect you from the game and the net, your isp will block them from ever being able to connect to you again and may even persue criminal charges, depending on what they did. It is a crime to disconnect other people from the net using flooding programs, but only your isp can do anything about it.

I am a 8+ year halo vet been playing on live since h2 came out and have seen so many cheaters in isn't funny. Hey, does anyone remember the dummy glitch from h2 or people grabbing the flag through the walls and floor? I H8 cheaters!

Oh and how is anyone over 40 not legit? Believe it or not there are legit 50s. People do cheat, but just because someone beats you or is beter then you at Halo doesn't mean they are cheating. Remember, we are playing this game over the net and there will always be lag and latency and it will effect game play and as long as bungie continues to use the player host/ client matchmaking model and not dedicated servers, people are alway going to be able to manipulate it and cheat.

Sorry for the long rant. Don't take too much exception to any of it, it's only a matter of my opinion. Thanks for your time. Much love from the Don, take care

To both of the above: Really?
~At least i dont get host booted from every other game.
~At least i dont have someone with auto aim running around getting perfections.
~At least when you shoot someone it actually hits them and not have someone flipping some stupid lag switch.

Id go on but then this post would end up a flame-fest.

My cap card vid of my lone wolves before the TU with the TRUE SKILL and the playlist exp setup. The game that first got my 45 was in 2008 about a month before my uncle died.

Yes i am legit 45. Yes i got it before 2009. And yes i am level locked cause of the total exp gain and the fact that it would take about 100 perfect first place games just to get 50 in lone wolves. It will also take about 50+ games for team doubles.

EDIT: So in short yes they do not care. They may have added some stuff that was over suggested all over the website and in spamming pm's and xbox live messages to each of the employee's but the matchmaking has not been touched since the TU over 2 years ago.

Halo 3 matchmaking is dead cause of the modders who run the place now. You can thank them for the reason why you dont get any good games anymore.

Click Here to watch me and AuRoRa's first ever Dualtage!

Wow stop exaggerating HANTER. Modders don't "run rampant". You didn't mod if you got a 40 or higher after 2009. The only known aimbot is jester. If you think everyone is using aimbots maybe they are just better than you...

Also, the problems you listed above are just as much a problem as H3 as in CoD...

These problems are also evident in MW2, am I right?

Bottom Line: It's just a game. This problem exists in almost all of the shooters that are popular, and besides reporting through Xbox, there's not really much you can do.

Go find the modders website and check how many people are already aimbotting halo 3. Jester is the only one who gets recorded cause he is trying to be flashy to everyone.

In the last 2 months alone i have been host booted 9 times from halo 3 matchmaking out of 23 games i played total on 3 accounts. (this account is not one of them)

Since the Modern Warfare 2 game has been out i have only once been host booted and have been lag-switched 2 other times.

Now lets do the math shall we?


Now im going to end this convo for the sake of the fact that this thread is not about me but about how bungie dont care to even want to fix the aimbot and hostbooting issues.

I was told about a week ago from a friend that he knows what to do to fix the aimbot but he and i already know that no one will do anything cause REACH is coming soon and halo 3 is nothing more then "just another game"

Till i see some improvement to the halo 3 matchmaking, it will to me forever be known as the modders haven cause they do run rampent.

If you dont believe me then ask any ninja to list the threads on the site as to how many people have posted about the host booters. Just the threads alone is far too much. Think about how many more are not being posted on the site.

Halo Reach uses Truskill. You just don't see the level.

Halo 3 social, uses true skill, you just don't see the level.



I want to see reach have three grouping of playlists...
Arena
Ranked
Social.

Keep the levels for the tryhards. we love em. :)
