Rank doesn't matter, it's how you play that matters.


Baring what you said in mind, if you play good, then shouldn't you have a good rank?

Not if you play social.

I love how every low rank has to justify themselves by the fact that they "wreck 50s all the time" or some stupid crap like that.

If you play primarily social and don't venture out into ranked then you're probably not that good as social doesn't breed good players.

Too true. I stopped playing Social and got loads better with the BR. It used to be 6-7 shots, now its 4-5 shots, 6 with a shaky BR moment.

Seasoned Veterans. We do it for the lulz. Halo is a video game, and Bnet is a video game forum. Some of you need to relax.

no social is more competitive than ranked

Last Social game I played was crawling with try hards, so maybe.

Action sack will do wonders, as there are a lot of good players there who have maxed out their rank, so they don't need EXP. Team stickies can really make you better with plasma and spike grenades.

omg

45 - 50

i met one of the best halo players i know, who as far as i know doesn't have his 50 yet, as a rank 21 lieutenant in SWAT... i believe he is something like a 44 in MLG... id say it depends on the playlist because from what ive seen here are the more popular playlists

lone wolves
under 35- usually pretty bad
35-40 sporadically good but mostly bad
40-45 usually good-awesome but sporadically bad
45-50 F***ING KILL STEALING PROS

team slayer
under 30- usually garbage
30-35 usually bad with a few good kids thrown in
35-40 mostly good but again, a few BK's
40-47 good-awesome
48-50 beastly (usually teams of 4)

MLG
0-20 hilariously varied.. i had a game where the kids on the other team went +18, +10, - 14, and -16

20-35 good on their own, but usually without a team
35-42 really good-awesome individual players and teams of good players
42-50 beast

SWAT
this playlist is no gauge of how good someone actually is at halo as a whole, it merely measures one aspect of the game. i have both pwned and been pwned by 50's in swat

snipers
see above, although if someone who is a 50 in snipers manages to get their hands on a sniper in team slayer, the game is basically over

For me your good if you do everything in your power to help the team win and you do. Levels can not prove this. Level 45 players can out play level 50s. It is more of outsmarting the other players than anything.

Rank reflects how consistently you win.

A team of birdies will never beat a team of good 50s.


lolno
a team of brigadier generals that earned their 48s will always outplay a group of bought 50's who have played nothing but team social since they bought their account. a general who has 146 ranked games and 6,743 social games isn't impresive

I agree. Though, I prefer to play in SWAT simply because everyone has the same weapon all the time.

Rank actually means nothing once 45+ however i luv seeing the number going up once ur 45+ then rank means nuthing if u have good connection you should be a 47 at least if u have bad connection or australian and dont bridge 45+ ur a beast but anyone below that usually fails

e.g i own sucky 50s playing mlg 35 high on my 3bar yellow to 4 bar yellow connection

About me:
I'm 20. I use to play Halo alot but never do really anymore. I'm a offline player since I have dial up. I do play online on rare events when I don't have to go to work, school, etc.

My highest is a 42. I don't play online much since I have dial up. I rarely get to play.

Am I good? >.<

while rank gives in indication, it varies tremendously, so who knows?... depending on the playlist, if you're a 42 in MLG im going to assume you're awesome, and if you're a 42 in swat i shall reserve judgement

Yes I am from Lebanon & yes that is in the middle east!
Yes I am a Muslim & yes I am proud of it!
LEBO is short for Lebanese, so yeah. Anyway My name is Amer Shahen (Shahen means Falcon or Eagle in arabic) lol I can't speak arabic that well. Amer is pronounced Amir just like Yusuf Amir off GTA4. I don't hate Americans either BTW.
Have fun, go hard and most of all respect your fellow gamers.
Check out my Fileshare!

I think that 35+ is pretty good. I mean like, i have seen pretty beast commanders in my life. And i have respect for a few non boosted legit 35s who are cool and are considered good.

I don't see why 40-50 has to be considered good a 35 can be as good as any 40.

I have it in 42 in lone wolves. only playlist I ever got to really play at a friend's house. I did it when he was asleep. Only took me a week.

Look at my stats and tell me if I'm good and remeber I have dial up and I'm not a online gamer.
