I am living with depression and every day is a constant struggle just to get through the day.

I think they play a lot and that is about it.

I agree with you for the most part but i think social generals are pretty unpredictable.
OMG if thats edwardmp2

I miss Halo. Maybe Halo 4 will change that.

Edit: Lol nope

Majority of low leveled playlist generals are either boosters or people who just p[lay and don't care whether thay win or lose. My only playlist general is in BTB so I got no rank to worry about. Also 500 of the 800 exp is from me mongoosing and playing with 1 or 2 friends, the 300 is gained with teams of 8.

The competition in BTB gets more fierce that Team Slayer sometimes, also I just want to play the game, and in ranked you get guys who scream at you for being killed once even though they have died themselves, and I can't be arsed listening to them, and muting them would cause a breakdown in communications so I just don't play ranked unless im at low levels or with a decent person.

I got the majority of my TS EXP searching alone. But I see what youre getting at. To me, a playlist gen just shows what playlists you like. I have a good amount of 50s but I only have a playlist gen in 2 playlists because those are the ones I like to play the most. Not to mention theres MLG where its hard to reel off winstreaks for most people so you can have a playlist gen 50 and drop off all the time down to 49 and below

"It is not a goal, but a process. The process of creating the perfect world."

Let them be what they. Not everyone can get a 50; I know I'm not good enough, but some people played too many games before getting there and now have basically no chance unless they become gods of Halo. And since not everyone can get a 50, people who keep playing will eventually become playlist generals (assuming they play enough), not their fault for getting xp.

There's nothing wrong about it, the playlist rank is meant to show devotion, not skill.

The problem is outside of being a 50, rank doesn't really mean much to me. Hadn't played in a week, picked up my controller and dominated some kids today (my first game wasn't that smooth since it was on valhalla w/ non-BR start and was 4v5, although I still went positive so meh). Supposedly being a level 21 I shouldn't be able to fight well, but I kicked some lower 40 kids in the face even playing pretty sloppy.

I don't put much stock in the rank except if they're actually level 50, because level 50s can go from the run of the mill to ultra bad ass, and I can't really be off my game if they're the ultra bad ass type.

The problem is that for someone like me who doesn't have anyone online to play with anymore (on my old account I went to skill 38 before my doubles teammate quit qq) and who despises lone wolves gameplay, THERE IS NO WAY TO GET YOUR SKILL HIGH. Playing with randoms is basically unacceptable since even if I go positive, which is winning, I can still lose because of my teammates going ultra negative. I don't even touch power weapons either, I leave them solely to my team and still go positive and sometimes lose, so, yeah. Can't wait for the Arena in Reach.

Playlist General + 50 = good
Playlist General + -49(because everyone loses a 50 at some point) = bad

imho. MLG is the exception, playlist 50s with generals can float all the way to 47 occasionally.

I think anyone with a Squad general and is over 45 in it is good too, actually. Not to mention the dedication anyone like that must have to it...

You should try to collect a 50 before Reach is out.

Why?

Yup. I fell all the way from a 50 in MLG to a 47 recently.

Hi Ed? gamertag?

The one thing you desire most in this world is something you'll never get. My desire is love. So far, my desire follows the phrase to the letter.

i dont really care its just i hate when they all party up in BTB and i dont play much big team so i get paired up with seargeants and get mowed down by the generals

Just to see if you can? Not saying you cant, but maybe two years from now you'll sign on to try and play some halo 3 and you might say "Damn I wish I got my 50 before when the population was healthy enough". Idk if you care or not, I'm just trying to give you some insight on why it would be nice to go for it.

I think I already know the answer. On my own abilities, no, I can't. But, I do have friends good enough to carry me there with relative ease. But, I don't want a rank I get carried to, and I'm kind of fond of the gold bars as it is. I regret trading in my Force Colonel.
