why do people take it so seriously?


I never figured that out either.

Last night I played 3 games. In all three games, the entire opposing team quit out in the loading screen, or within the first couple minutes of the game. It was a complete waste of my limited Halo time.

I'm all for everyone having their own definitions of 'fun' in this game, but I can't for the life of me figure out how people enjoy a playlist like that enough to get 10,000+ XP in some cases. I found myself losing interest after like 1 game.

Out of those 3 games I think we may have matched 1 or 2 people with a 50.


Yea, that happens alot when you search in teams in BTB. I used to play with Team 5 Star (yea I know some people in that group are bad.) and like every game everyone except one person would quit before the game even started.

when people boot others from parties because they arent trying, theres something up with it.

its a social playlist. anyone who actually takes it seriously is pretty sad.


You got booted because you weren't trying when you needed to. If we were just playing randoms it would be fine but we were versing a team.

And then I saw you playing with my friend who you left with, in a MLG custom game...

lol who tryhards in a custom?


after that retarded colonel remembered to close the party, me and moose searched mythic. our friend invited us to play, and we joined.


Oh yeah the other reason you got booted was because you rage quit on us. And he left the party open so you could rejoin. He wanted to boot you as soon as you made the retarded colonel comment again which he did and was hilarious.

i didnt leave and go "AWH YEAH MLG CUSTOMZ", i just joined because there were friends to socialize with

Doesn't matter, you tried in that custom game. Which was pointless because it was just a Custom game. The whole game before you rage quit you were talking about how people are trying so hard it's just Social...yet then you go join a MLG custom game.

i didnt ragequit the game, aforementioned retarded colonel booted me after i shotgunned him.

and like i said, i didnt try in that custom game. ask anyone who was in it, i played like a tard the whole time.


Nope you rage quit because you couldn't handle BTB.

So basically everyone has to follow those exact rules accordingly?

What about Team Skirmish? Where's Team Objective? Oh wait, it's gone. Just because it's Social doesn't automatically red flag it as a lulzfest. If you want to fool around on your own watch, go to custom games where people don't have to put up with foolishness all the way. Also what's to stop people from looking at ranked matchmaking the same way? Not everyone adheres to the principles of multiplayer.


Customs are more serious than social.

Very good question. I'm usually only playing with 1 or 2 other people and I back out against those 8 man teams that try their little heart out. I've noticed these teams lag up the game so much compared lobbies with random players. They call out and yell so much that it makes it almost unplayable.

And yeah I've noticed people with 10k+ EXP in BTB. That's insane. My theory for why these people only play BTB is that they need 7 other people to carry them against randoms.

You're one to talk. You used to be one of the biggest BTB tryhards out there. I remember you practically squealing like a girl when you thought you were going to get on an actual team (Warlords if I'm not mistaken).

You come on the forums thinking you are hot -blam!- when in all actual you are an average (at best) player that got boosted and carried to your 50.

Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

Why do people play social? It's like playing my little sister in a 1v1 basketball game. No competition, no fun. I lose interest after...well after even thinking of venturing into social.

The only reason I play Social and alot of others is for BTB. Ranked doesn't have RBTB and face it, SB is hardly a replacement for RBTB, 8v8 down to 6v6 is just too much of a difference.

You shouldn't judge someone for wanting to win. Ranked or Social, it doesn't matter. It's the same game just with or without numbers.

Well I like 6v6 better, and I like ranked better, so I love Squad.

Except it's "un-cool" and makes you a nerd if you try in Social according to the OP.

Sandtrap Heavies is stupid.

Tanks spawn every 60 seconds.

nope ur bad

Sandtrap has the best heavies matches in Squad. Against good teams, Valhalla and Avalanche heavies often end with a winning score barely reaching the thirties. Long tank respawn times are part of the problem. Teams are so afraid to push with their tank due to how vulnerable it is to enemy lasers that it creates a standoff almost every time. Also on Avalanche the tank is glitched on one side, and won't respawn until the opponent's tank is dead. Map design and the high amount of anti-vehicular weapons (mainly lasers) also contribute to these standoff games.

In Sandtrap heavies, however, there is constant map movement. When a tank is killed, both teams push towards the base in which the tank is on respawn to attempt to gain control of it. Sandtrap's circular and wide open nature also allow for this map movement to occur, whereas in Valhalla and Avalanche there are hardly and areas to make a push without getting blown up/lasered, and there is really only a few routes to the enemy's tank. Sandtrap's vast design eliminates the aforementioned problems. The short tank respawn times provide a fast-paced game and make it more enjoyable and interesting.
