Subject: Derankers..

Hey,

Ive started noticing the increase of derankers in matchmaking and dont quite understand the point. With Reach on the verge of being released, who really cares about their rank enough to put effort into losing. This just takes away from the experience and fun.

Just now I ran into "a guy", who had a frowney face as a symbol. He stood still and in the end was just jumping up and down. This ruined our chances and the game. Post people you have come across and how its affected your game play,

Singling people out can get you banned. And, everybody deals with derankers so get over it

  • 08.22.2010 8:37 PM PDT

you should delete this before you get banned. it's against the rules to post about individuals.

"Team shoot the wraith!"
"What's a team shoot and what's a wraith?!"
"It means we all shoot at the big blue thing together!"
"Okay!"
*starts betraying blue teammate*

They've been there for a long time.
A year before, the only Ranked I would play was MLG.
Then I ragequit that due to the fact that our matches were determined by which team had 3 people not 4.
Then I went to Snipers, which was fine for a few more months. Then the same situation came up, whoever had 3 people was screwed.
I eventually quit half a year ago to COD, and I got back into Halo last week.
THe only Ranked I can play without derankers is Team Slayer, it seems.

I've never run into a deranker, and if I have I never noticed them. But if they become such a big problem just move to LW and if there are derankers, just means more kills for you!

De-ranking never made sense in the first place. Regardless, the only way around this issue is to play with a full team.

really are you serious, you are still complaing about derankers. If you dont like them leave the playlist and come back in a little while, or better yet get some of your friends together and play as a team with them. Oh and if you want to know why we still derank, its because i have gotten 3 months and 1600 points for it. Dont complain just play the game.

Whats the answer to Number 2? BLAHHHH!!!!!! Ok....... BLAH...

Reach needs to be patched. It's the truth.

Derankers and second account boosters will always be worse than you. Especially because having a 50 doesn't mean -blam!- anymore.

lol ok says the gold bar... I have second accounts, does that make me worse than if i just had one... You are just mad because you cant get your 50 so you make yourself feel better by saying having a 50 means your bad.

I guess I agree.

Anyway, what you stated only explains why you derank. But why would anyone want to give people those 3 months or MS points for accounts with terrible records? There can't be that many people anymore who want a 50?

May 11 will be known as Halo 2 Day for me from now on.

Well Ive been in the Navy since June 25, 2009 and its a fun job right now.

Its part of the game now which is sad. All you can really do is just either ignore them or play with friends. Halo Reach is almost out anyways so it should really matter what you get your rank on Halo 3.

perfect time to boost 50s when half the population or even more leaves to get 50s ppl are still going to play halo 3 until it completely dies
