Subject: Host.

I recently upgaded my internet from 2mbp/s download, .5mbp/s upload to about 30 mbp/s download, 1 mbp/s upload, and i've started pulling host again for the first time...ever.

Few questions, is host record per account, or per console?

I know hosting a quality game increases your chances of receiving host again, so what is considered a good quality game? 6 bar? 5 bar?

Also, when i pull host over foreigners, does it hurt my host record, as people from australia are generally yellowbar?.

I Retired Gears of War 2, Sold it to buy Halo 3. And I have not had this much fun playing Video Games in a long time :)
Now that Halo Reach is out. My life has never been better.
Thanks Bungie.

I don't think it really matters who is host in this game too much. Most of the time you get in a good connection game. Compared to other games, yeah, this has the BEST host selection.

Because you're a 23.

More players at 23 then there are at 50.

Also, of course host doesn't matter to you when you play kids who don't even play the game regularily, and have no idea how to play it.

You realize the game basically starts you off with a 25, right?

Host is per Xbox. And unfortunately, playing against foreigners will hurt your host record.

That sucks, considering most foreigners are terrible, even on their own host.
