Subject: Overwhelming 50's

Well when i ever play Halo 3 and play Lone Wolves to get my highest skill up, there are 50 ranked people just keep joining and leaving ranked games so they can be with sucky players. I would be in a 34 skill match with others and i would get pwned by the 50 because he has unimaginable skill. Why would they do that? why not go in social big team or something else. Why does it have to be ranked?

Because ranked is fun for the most part.

You're not good at Halo either.

Because when people lobby rank check me I don't want a 10 in every playlist except Team Doubles. Gotta rank up every playlist.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Because they like Ranked, and prefer to play it rather than Social. Also it could be that it's fun for them to do that, and they could just be trying to get another 50. No reason for you to be getting all upset about it.

By virtue of the fact that they have 50s, most of these people play ranked. If they predominantly played social, they would probably not have 50s. Also, most people who are competitive enough to get 50s feel that ranked is more competitive (and it usually is.)

Finally, if you're trying to get your highest skill up, there's nothing better than beating 50s, as it tells the system that you should be ranked higher.

"Oh you -blam!- camping whore!"
"It's a legitimate strategyyyyyyy!"

There is an overwhelming number of 50s in Halo 3 period as people wh--- themselves out to rank boost people at risk of getting banned. There are so many unlegit level 50s it is rediculous. Pathetic and ruins the point of a ranking system if you try to get someone to use cheap methods to get unearned EXP. Really sad people do that stuff.

I'm saying only that you don't increase your highest skill by playing social, not that social is somehow worse. I love social.

If you're problem is that 50s are better than you at Halo, then that's why you're not a 50. That's... the point of the ranking system- to classify you according to skill so that you can be matched properly. It is NOT about having a ladder that everyone climbs to the top of.

Hence why red dead redemption is so popular lol jk.
Thank god these arguements will be settled when Reach is released.

To me, social is:
1 - more fun
2 - not serious
3 - ???
4 - profit

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.
