Subject: Just got my 50, what do I do?

For the record, I would tap that like like it was put-put golf. Like a college student opening a beer keg. Like a phone in the cold war. Like an oil company in a nature reserve. Like a goddamn telegraph.

Seriously though, I'm fine with experimenting

Frankly, I really prefer social. Ranked is too competitive and it makes me rage. I love just relaxing in Social Big Team or the DXPW with some friends. I feel that once one attains a 50 in any ranked playlist there is no reason to play ranked ever again unless you are doing it for fun or achievements only. I say Customs and Social, but that's just my opinion and you need pay it no heed if Ranked is really your thing. I think many people would find they have more fun (unless they really need to play ranked to show that they are the "best") if they just play social and play for fun, not to win. As a matter of fact...you do better if you really have fun and get into it.

all of the above


I concur. Don't know who to play with though since everyone I know is higher than me in those playlists or they just arent good enough for me to win with. And I would feel terrible boosting all those :0

i just hit my 50 again in Team Snipers...and it felt great, almost as good as it did when i actually hit 50 for the very first time about 2 yrs ago

so i say...go with option 4

(i got it all by myself as well, straight randoms, NEVER went in with a teammate(s))

  • 08.15.2010 10:26 PM PDT

I would have my 50 in SWAT, if I didn't get stuck with teammates who go 2-15 while I'm over here going 30-8. God its frustrating. Maybe I should go to snipers....

Get as many 50s as possible.

  • 08.15.2010 10:54 PM PDT

Help your friends get their 50s too.

And if you end up playing MLG, go for at least a 45. 40 isn't too hard, I'm terrible and I got a 41 solo :p

Colonels are bad. o wait





If you're still flaming someone for their rank & they keep responding at this point in H3, you're getting trolled hard.

Just got my 50 in TS, now figuring what I wanna do before Reach comes.

My options are

1)Play TS more on my 50
2)Try for my 40 in MLG
3)Try doubles 50
4)Try Snipers 45
5)Get my SWAT to a 40


All this will be mixed with playing some social with friends and what not.

Thoughts on what I should do?

add me and we get our gens together lol pm me

All of the above would be a good choice. However, after getting my 50's I decided to play mainly social with friends because we found ourselves enjoying it more than ranked. This is because, when we play ranked, we tend to take the game far more seriously, leading to frustration and friction: something to be avoided. But, to be honest, it's entirely up to you. You may find playing on your TS 50 to be the best, if that's the case play that. If you find getting your doubles 50 a have-to: do it.

your snipers 45 shouldnt be hard to get at all if we play together. i could run 2s on this acc with you or use team snipez, your choice.

Play social!

  • 08.16.2010 3:54 AM PDT

Never play on the 50, or play ranked again.

Play tons of social, and find some like-minded players to RuN a social playlist with.

After you've beaten enough guests in BTB, brag about how good you are.

waitwut.

Why did you get a 50 - like seriously...
The only real reason the number is there is to match you against other 50s...so do just that perhaps? Go in as a team of 4 in slayer and get your butt handed to you by the REAL 50s in slayer. Social gets boring fast, trust me. Go for a 50 in lone wolves, its fun and difficult, doubles is an easy 50 which if you're any good you should be able to get in your sleep.

If you're not boosting, doubles is harder than slayer imo.

Slayer as a 2 is easier than doubles as a 2. As a high level pair in doubles you'll play most your games vs two 50s with ridiculous exp (they usually suck but still..).

But slayer as a 4 is harder than doubles as a 2.

Well, I took about 2 months break and figured why not make a new account and get to 50 but made some rules for the challenge.

My Rules for new 50 in TS:
1. Pistol must remain my top killer (if you pass one, pick it up and us it)
2. NOT ALLOWS TO USE THE AR AT ALL
3. Minimal Rockets, Laser, Sniper, shotgun, mauler and sword (only use if losing or close game)
4. Duel Spikers (if passed must be used if team has the lead)
5. Plasma Rifles (same rule applies as #4

Currently:
LEVEL 44 w - 2.38 K/D *not playing for a K/D, running and gunning*

488 Pistol kills to 275 BR kills
