Subject: Halo 3 Doubles Rank locked... HELP!

I don't care if your better than me or worse. At the end of the day, I still say "good game" after every match. Whether I got a steaktacular on you, or the other way around. Shut up, play the game, and try to show some decency when you do. Because if you don't, all it does is make you seem like you have the maturity level of a 12 year old trying to impress his friends.

I've heard some things saying that there is no such thing as your level in a certain playlist being locked. But I started playing with a buddy of mine on an alternate account. Now before you say anything, we were doing so because his main account was too high of a level on dubs to get matched up in games consistently, and he didnt feel like losing his rank. So he started out level 1, me level 31, and I understand that right off the bat because of his lower level I WILL rank up slower. But the rate at which I ranked up was ridiculous. He is now a 41 in dubs, and im stuck at 32, with me leveling up becoming a wild dream. If this is truly how the ranking system is meant to work then I dont blame second accounters. Honestly though, I think there must be something wrong with my account or something, because this is just ridiculous. Bungie, I know you probably won't read this but please look at my game history and make sure my level isnt doomed to always be 32, because if it is I give up. Please, this halo-fanboy is begging you, help me out.

I will admit im not MLG pro or anything, but I consider myself a good player. But coming onto my thread and telling me Im bad, honestly, accomplishes NOTHING. I asked for help, not criticism. I really just want some help with this because I've been trying so hard to try and get that 50, and now I fear it's impossible because of either a flawed ranking system or a glitch in the system. If ANYONE can help me out or explain to me please do.

I've been playing doubles with my friend and he went from 7 - 24 while I went from 6 - 10.

Have you ever considered that you reached your TRUE SKILL!?

IT WAS HIS FIRST AND ONLY MLG GAME. HE NEVER PLAYED AGAIN.

This is going to sound stupid, but the system will "lock" your level if you keep on playing with the same person. Even in dubz (which is a huge design flaw). He ranked up so high (and fast) because your record was horrible, bad enough that even with no experience, the system thought he was carrying you. Play with someone else (or another account) that has a similar or worse record than yours. Doesn't have to be a "booster," but it does have to be bad, to credit your account with more of the apparently deserved victory. Otherwise, put a smile on your face. If you can win and you're not ranking up, at least you're improving your K/D and win/loss record :)

Yea....

I've already read all about the truskill ranking system. I understand how it works, I just dont understand why right now it seems to be working biasly against me. I mean seriously? I only leveled up ONCE (31 to 32) and he went all the way from 1 to 41? It either has to be a glitch in the system or the most flawed ranking system ever. Ill admit, most games my friend carryed me. But I consistently got the most assists as well. I understand that kills have nothing to do with the ranking system itself, but I still have a hard time believing that out of all the games we played the system itself was working properly for me

LOL sorry but I find this hilarious. The kid needs to get a new account or find some true halo 3 players who dominate in a playlist.

peachyhercules...

is this because of how the ranking system works? because if it is I give up. I know I'm good enough to reach 50 in at least one playlist. Iv'e played with people that were going into MLG tournaments and faired well against them. I call out, help my team, everything a good player should do. But if this is because of a flawed sytem I might just try to get my 45 in Lone Wolves, (I have a 41) and stop there.

  • 08.16.2010 10:38 AM PDT

Keep playing on his account with him. When or if he gets a 50 you will rank up. The system is messed up. Nobody knows how it truly works. I am locked at a 45 meh. Go play lonewolves, that's what I had to do.

  • 08.16.2010 10:39 AM PDT

all depends who you win and lose against...

If you lose to a booster, it's like losing 5-8 games in a row. If you beat a booster it's like winning 1/2 a game. If you beat a group of two guys around your skill, that's normal. If they have great records it's even better.

no such thing as a level lock. I've taken accounts and proved this many of times. I won't in doubles tho, boring gametype.

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo:CE > Reach > ODST > Wars

Just keep perservering with it. I know it's irritating but if you have played a lot of games in a playlist it will take longer to rank up. Maybe try and find a different playlist to get your 50 in if you keep having trouble with it. Good luck. :)

I love how people come onto Bungie.net to tell others they suck at the game we all play...

Have you played against me? No.

How can you say I suck at a game you play when youve never seen me play? Thats just a blasphemy in logic my friend.

youre a LW colonial who can barely make it past 30 in other playlists, and you have lost enough games to make your account seem "rank locked", and at level 30, which is pretty much the same as playing lieutenants

sounds pretty bad to me

oh, and I never actually said anything about my rank being "locked."

I simply stated that I thought that there must be something wrong with my account, whether it be "locked" or just the victim of the downside of the Trueskill ranking system.

Although now that I've read how this works, I consider accounts that are boned, like mine, "locked" since unless you plan on playing nonstop for... um.... EVER, your not going to see much movement in that playlist rank....
