Subject: It's Official! Halo 3 Has The Worst Ranking System!

GET A LIFE

I just got back on Halo because i wanted to get good at it again and so im trying to get a 50 again cuz my account got hacked a while back and i never got it back. So i win 3 games of dubz on a 47 against 50 generals and i didn't go up and the next game we lost. So my partner leaves and i play lone wolves and im a 21 in it and im a brig. it takes at least around 4-6 games in 1st place for me to rank up? wouldnt it want me to rank up quicker so i can let the lower levels not get destroyed by me?whatever worst ranking system ever.

Your overall rank does not affect how fast you level up in a certain playlist and if you didn't come in 2nd and 3rd you would level up faster in LW. Also in dubs you played a 45 and a 50 so your team could have been expected to win, but you lost so that probably won't help you. Btw since you don't know this exp has nothing to do with rank and highest skill has nothing to do with rank. Instead it goes off rink in that playlist.

Reach's system is retarded.

Well if you look at the ranking system that microsoft made (halo 3) that allows account dealing, reasons for cheating, boosting and 49-50 (the effort doesn't count), while Arena is pure individual skill.

Which one is retarted now?

So nothing's good enough for you huh OP? If you truly, TRULY, feel that H3 has the worst ranking system, I suggest you look at MW2. No matter whether you win or lose, you get EXP, and it NEVER GOES DOWN. At least in H3, you get demoted after a few bad losses and won't get promoted until you show that you really deserve that rank.

One good shot is worth a thousand bad ones.

I'm going to have to say that the Arena is going to be outstanding. I am going to enjoy the new ranking system. Should make things interesting.

No it's not.

It's like statwhoring 3-5 times a day over a month.

It's nothing like getting a 50.

It was like 3-5 a day to get into a division becuase the beta was 2 weeks, that's like in the halo 3 beta making it so that you rank faster then in the retail game.

In the retail game of Reach it will take it's time and skill to Reach onyx, btw i reached onyx :D

so having to win 6 games to get ONE rank up, than lose the next game=derank is fine?

  • 08.18.2010 9:10 PM PDT

I don't see how people are getting these bogus exagerations. I win 6 games= rank up. I lose 1 game= nothing happens.

There's nothing wrong with selling accounts.

People will still cheat in Reach, it's much easier to statwhore 4v3, and I guarantee standbying will come back harder.

There's nothing wrong with boosting. If anything, it prevents low-levels from getting stomped on for a long period of time.

Arena is centered around leaving your team out to dry, in order to pad your own stats. The H3 system is always about winning, and working as a team to do so. I'd love the arena system if W/L were the only thing that mattered.

Reach is retarded. The system's only positive, is the season settings, so people don't keep making new accounts, so they'll actually have to search at their rank.



1. Game developers don't like real world trading.

2. Bungie will be there if there's any cheating.

3. I don't think Bungie thinks the same after banning people from boosting.

4. I still like the Reach system more.

5. If Reach is retarted that's your opinion :D

btw i reached onyx :D


Case in point.

Onyx is way too broad, nearly anyone can get to it. Hopefully they actually changed it so only the top <2% are in, instead of the 5%.

Onyx was too easy to reach that's why there were so many threads about it in the feedback forum, and that means that bungie will change it (like u said).

It is simple people don't learn that in order to understand something read about it or get some one to tell you how it works that has read about it.
