Subject: I won't miss this game :/

So at first I was thinking, how can you beat a game like this, forge, customs, theatre, a great campaign and multiplayer. But hey the multiplayer isn't hard to beat.
All I get on halo is derankers, the derank on my team, then boost people when I'm against them. Sadly that seems to be the only way to get to 50 nowdays, boosters in dubs. No teamwork, as bungie doesn't like that and doesn't reward you.
I see these kids, won all 118 games on dubs and have 25 skill, when they blates deserve 50, then BK's that play 37 games and are 50. It's really not a 'FUN' system, you can't just win and go up, you have to boost.
And I'm finally glad it is going because it's about time. Sure alotta people will disagree with this, but this is my own personal experience and of others. I can't play multiplayer anymore, it's no fun, just taken over by a bunch of nerds who find way to beat the system to get that all glorious 50 :O, most of which are terrible and then sit there playing double exp.
Call of duty may take not much skill, but at least it takes into account how well you do regardless of bad kids and de ranks. Eurgh I'm out. Bring on Forge World and hopefully a half decent multiplayer...

Sorry for making it personal Bungie, but I can't believe the skill system is so bad.

"Can't get 50, mad. Must post on B.Net!"

Seriously, if you're still at the level where you get derankers, you're not good enough to get a 50 in that playlist.

Actually I'm 49. And yes I haven't got a 50, spam the abuse I can't get one skill, but that is Halo, and yes there are derankers at my level.

I realized the faults 2 years ago and never looked back. I wanted Halo 3 to be everything H2 was and more. It had some great innovations, but the gameplay was simply not as fun as I wanted it to be.

So what you are saying is that you don't find the game fun because there are people who don't deserve their 50s?

Okay...

There's a difference between winning games on level 25 and winning games on level 50. It really doesn't make them 50s if they beat other 25s.

If you think you encounter too many derankers, search with some people you know.

So the only fun you get out of halo is ranks...?

CamouflagedJew I totally argee, however I kept playing for some reason.. :/ And to the next to posts. No I don't think the fun is in the ranks, it's just all this game is now, bad 50's, good low ranks, and abuse to the lower ranks because they are not 50! Especially when you are 49 :| But I'm happy at 49, as 50 seems to be more common than ever with these nerdy gamers that derank.

That still explains nothing. How does it affect your gameplay if you encounter bad 50s or good lowranks? Just play the game, don't check their service records if nothing else helps.

Social, is not challenge for me, sorry if that sounds arrogant but it really isn't I played ranked. And the whole point of ranked is to go up skill is it not? And it does bother me when people get there and they are bad. I see getting to 50 as part of completing the game, a part I am yet to complete at 49, I don't think I will, as the system makes no sense.

Hold your ground, hold your ground! Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!

I agree with forgepro. I always get stuck with boosters and derankers and it pisses me off. We should be able to report derankers, I'm tired of either sending messages telling them to stop or submitting a player review which means absolutely nothing to anyone. If bungie doesn't fix the system I'm not buying reach.

Actually the point of ranked isn't really leveling up in skill, but rather matching you against other competitive gamers around your skill level.

And the system does make sense. You win, you go up, you lose, you go down. Simple as that. Win enough and you will eventually get a 50.

Seriously, if you're still at the level where you get derankers, you're not good enough to get a 50 in that playlist.

Ok, seriously?
How is anybody supposed to get PASSED the deranking stage when they hold good players back? How are bad players supposed to get better in that playlist when they're always being held back by derankers? You don't gain much personal skill from beating on some kid who isn't playing, and teamwork skills sure don't develop from playing with deranker kids.

And again, the OP is right about the second accounter thing. It's impossible to go into doubles or something with a partner without fighting these kids who have nothing better to do than make their 12th account to see how fast they can get a 50.

  • 08.21.2010 10:51 AM PDT

If your a 49 just find a booster to help you 1 or 2 games. If you can get a 49 then you can get a 50.

  • 08.21.2010 10:53 AM PDT

BK cheez and austin, thanks it's nice to see some people reply with something productive, derankers have changed this game now and I'm glad Reach is out soon. They ruin your truskill.

You keep avoiding my points...

And, no I'm down to 47 now, I've lost all momentum, and lost loads now, I have to win about 4 in a row to go up each rank and at this level that is very hard.

Once the momentum is gone you should just probably take a break...we've all been there.

Halo is still a great game.


CE and h2, yea.

Halo 3 is just pretty good, competitive play wise. IMO

I've seen my family fade away, You've taken my whole life left me nothing to say. Sitting in silence with heaven above me i prayed every night by their graves. I search for closure i feel it no longer i can't turn my face away. I stand before you Ive seen what I've had to but now i leave your sight to avenge my family, I've taken my whole life there's nothing left to say.

The point of the ranks was NOT a race to a 50, Its meant to be where you find games matching your skill level. All you kids who got a 50 and say, "Your not good enough to get a 50 anyway" we dont care. you most likely boosted or got one in the first year or so of the game being out(when boosters derankers and such were nearly nonexistent.) I got to 45, then just stopped playing ranked games only a few with friends every now and then to screw around,

Then we have all these kids that boost a 50 and go around trying to act legit. These are the ones that amuse me, it takes a simply look at their history to tell and when their found out they run with their tail between their legs, and to the 50's in griffballl, you........ I salute you, you got a 50 in a playlist that requires a different type of skill to play, all the kids will rage and say you suck but its only because they couldn't achieve that 50.

/rant type thingy.
