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.


It really isn't about whether or not you care. If you've played over a 1000 games of TS, you should of at least learned enough to get past a 30.

The first time you see a bubble, you probably rushed it and got shotgunned... so why do it a second time? And a third? This isn't about trying, it's just about simple common sense....

I would say at that low level, its not about common sense but rahter player skill.

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.

People don't have to tryhard to win in social. Some people don't even need to tryhard to win on their 50. This assessment you have is retarded IMO. And of course you add the "no lives" when actually some of them probably have more of one than you.

Well I dont think that makes any sense. You dont automatically become a tryhard because you win. Playlist generals to me show which playlists people like to play. Making these kinds of statements about playlist gens and regular gens is just like when lower ranks are made fun of.

Ahhh mild trolling while hidden behind an unlinked tag...

I see it as dedication to a playlist, be it ranked or social. Although from personal experience any low(ish) level ranked playlist Gen searching alone is usually a deranker.

  • 08.13.2010 4:43 AM PDT

Play list General? I think they've won a lot of games in that play list. Anything else you infer by that status, especially concerning their skill, is just speculation and.. wait for it... a generalization. Sorry couldn't resist the bad pun. :(

I have just started playing Halo 3 again because of Reach coming out soon. I class myself as a decent player that has not the patience or teammates to get to a 50. Also my personal skill is not up to it either.

I do not have any playlist generals either. This is due to me not playing Halo 3 enough.

Rank is not that much of a big deal to me but it would be nice to have a 50. I am happy where I am and let the post games stats talk on my behalf when it come to players flaming me because of my rank.

lol no i`m not trolling

dedication to a playlist? it shows me that they`ve spent ages in that playlist winnning matches only to achieve a small picture by there name only for that playlist

what i hate is when people have multiple playlist generals

If a playlist general is a low rank.... like a field major or worse, then I think they really suck at playing. But if it's a strike commander or higher, then I would think they are experienced and talented.

i think that it is harder to get a general on your 50 searching by yourself - especially if u live outside of the US. this is because you will get yellow bar every game and chances are you will either get a deranker on your team or they will just be retarded. if you play with your mates chances are you will have better team work and you know that they are not retarded

Frankly I don't have no desire at all to even try to better my Field Major Rank. I wasn't even trying for rank in anycase, it was only because of ranked Infection which I played for two of the four days it was up.

To be honest I find more enjoyable things to do in Halo 3 than trying to better my rank. I enjoy campaign, SBTB, Team Mythic, Grifball and Maption Sack playlist more than any of the other playlists. I think I could count the amount of ranked games I have played in the last year on one hand.

If you enjoy getting your fifty, good on you. But for some it has not interest. You have to remember that just because you are a 50 doesn't mean you are good at every aspect of every Halo game. Some players are better at campaign or firefight for example.

The other night I heard these fifties discussing how hard the Vidmaster & 200k achievements were in ODST. I was like WTF!!.
I've helped people do Endure and I'll hear "I'm a 50 in whatever playlist." and yet who is dieing the most and hasn't got a clue, yep the 50.

Yea, the last thing you want is are some elites strapped your your back while a grunt massages your nuts unprotected.

I like playlist generals.

I'm going for one in Social.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

It shows they have done ALOT of matchmaking and games.
