Subject: Question to 50s

Posted by: Brian OA
Okay, if you study up on derankers, it means that you've just played too much on that playlist, and that you need to be pwning some 50's like the previous posts said. Just play in some other playlists, and beat higher ranked guys when u come back.


I play snipes too. My sigma does seem better in that plus I'm a 48, so that may be my best bet.

I know people who have ranked in Slayer using this method though, it just didn't take them as many games!

I honestly think it shouldn't matter to much now considering Reach is coming out in 2 days...


It doesn't really, I just wanted to get a 50 before Reach.

No you just call your teammate bad when yet he is redbar the whole game. As if he can magically pull his connection to greenbar.

Do you still not even know what a router is?


What? I can't remember playing with you but if I did and I was a prick I apologise.. nerd rage or whatever you wanna call it :P

And I've always known what a router is.

It also depends on how many games u lost


1 loss / 21 wins.

No such thing.


There quite clearly is to some degree. I've won 21 times without going up once, whilst my teammate has gone from level 5 to level 35.

You have to win consecutively and never lose.

If you're not searching with a deranked account, i'd recommend searching 2's with someone around the same rank as you, if you want to rank up.


I've been searching 3s with one person my level, and one low levelled person, but the wins must surely count for something... maybe when the 3rd low levelled guy gets to my level I should rank up almost straight away? Hopefully....

I played you in slayer on my other account earlier today.
You were in with a team of three. Usually you have to go in by yourself of run twos in slayer to rank up fast.
Try playing with FastTurn, he seemed pretty good.



Sorry if we steaked you :P If not, well played, you did better than most people we played!

Your skill is directly associated with your EXP. The higher EXP, the harder to rank in skill. For example: If you are a Lieutenant in a ranked match mode for all intensive purposes and you play a team that has never played that game mode, the system views you as the better chance of winning. So if you lose, more likely you will drop. If you win, more likely you will stay the same until you play a team that the system recognizes as the better chance of winning. Simple way to get a 50 is this: Play with a friend who is a 50 in a playlist that you are a 1. Win about 25-30 straight matches and you will be a 50. Reason is, your skill 1 compared to the 40-50s youll be playing shows the system that you have no chance of winning.....

Take a step back with me and enjoy a taste of the bittersweet that is our current generation.

I enjoy Battlefield and Call of Duty, and Gears of War.

I love anything political.

It's because you're playing with a low account with an inflated sigma, and you're expected to win all your games because of this, and are not recieving much of anythign from the game.

Instead of playing insecurely on your 47, play with somebody of similar rank and search 50 high, this should solve your problem, or make it worse because then you actually run the risk of getting a fair match.

You're not good at Halo either.

Stop playing with new/low level accounts.

I who walk alone in this world wrapped in the arms of the past not knowing what lies ahead of me. What am I? A soulless being to be beaten by the rage of those who hate me? Cutting my way past hopes and dreams. Sit in the window sill as I do every day and night resignations on my slate of who I am and what is left behind. Concealed in the words that chases my every thought. I who walk alone in this world…I am broken

I helped a friend of mine get his 50 it took us almost 58 games to get from a 47 to a 49 and after we broke his rank lock it only too us 3 games after that.So it is posable to get a 50 after being rank locked

I know this :P I was asking how many games it took people because I know you CAN rank up with this method, albeit longwinded.

Yeah but you won't level up playing with a low account like that.
