Seriously, why is this such a huge issue? Why do you people care if someone you'll never meet IRL is better than you at a game?

Here's a perfect example:

Mine: Getting a Perfection in a Ranked game. I have the Perfection curse. 6 Running Riots, zero Perfections.


If you have one, what was yours?


my unfinished goal is getting past 36 but it isnt happening becuase i dont rank up in team slayer because i have too much exp and my conection for swat isnt good enough.


I find it funny that he first blames his high exp, which isn't really a problem because even booster accounts rank up after consequtive wins, then blames his connection on his lack of ability to rank up in swat, even though i personally have an entire FL filled with people with horrible connections, yet they've all managed numerous 50's including swat.

So, why is this such a huge deal? I openly admit i'm horrible at basketball and don't make excuses, which i'd think is a lot harder than admitting the same about a game to a bunch of people over a forum that you'll never even talk to.

My goal is to reach 40 with pistol as my top killer, sadly I've most likely played this kid over the weekend. LOL

If 40 is possible, we'll see about 50 but I'll need a group so we can veto BR games to get Pistol/AR starts.

50 in MLG,LW,TS,TD,TSN,TSW

I guess because some people care what others think of them over the internet.

Jay Z is super kewl dog, he makes ossim chart hits for people with good taste in hip hop y'all.

If you think thats all he does, then you havent heard the ALBUMS or you dont know English.

I'm guessing that's Cooper, only he cares enough about other peoples ranks to make threads like this.

If you run full teams of 4 you'll never win the Veto against BR starts because the other team of 4 probably wont veto. But I see what you're getting at

If you want to play custom games in Halo 3 or later Reach, join our group =D

Ranking up is extremely hard when you have a lot of exp, it took me like a year to get from 44 to 45 because after a couple of wins I would get in 4th in lone wolves which makes you backtrack, it's just frustrating.

Irony.

Cooper only plays social, i doubt he cares about ranks at all.

Also, this is nothing to do with ranks; this is about people who can't admit they aren't as good as others.

Always veto last second, sometimes you get that idiot that vetos because he doesn't think anyone will.

Don't worry, he will tell us it's "interesting" soon, then you can really bust out the laugh riots.

Exp does not effect ranking up at all, the only relation between exp and ranking up is correlative. Also, it's not the exp that's slowly you down, it's your inconsistency.

Why do you deserve to rank up if you can't win consistently?

Yea I've caught people with that before, but I know never to do it because I've done it so much.

i guess the good people don`t think about matching high ranks

even if i don`t match against generals there is always someone in the tank or something stealing all my kills

did you read the "i gave up on ranked" part

i`d probably be a major or maybe higher if i still played ranked


whats funny is the fact that if you look at those 16 ranked splatter sprees they all happened in one match

i can`t wait for reach when no-one will judge people by their highest skill or rank

Hell, I am the first to admit that I am not good at the game! However, I really enjoy playing it, if I don't get slaughtered too often! But, it is like golf for me, that one good hit gets me coming back.

What's giving up on Ranked got to do with losing all of your Social matches?

Really no one should care about being considered good at this game, especially at this point. Its a dying game

on another note


OP- you have no right to fratinize lower ranking players


Connor- It is possible for you to rank up, i have 4000 exp and a month ago i had a 46, i ranked up to a 50 by myself, its hard to rank up with high exp but not impossible
