Subject: can we please get swords removed from the lone wolves playlist

Pistol evolution, set in Chronological timeframe (according to bungie):
5 shot kill in Reach to a 3 shot kill in CE, then its like an 8 shot kill in Halo 2, and then like a 4 shot kill in 3, but it shoots super slow, then in ODST it is so underpowered, but it kills with on shot as long as you take their shield off first.

some people may like it at the lower ranks, but everyone I play with, (40+ rank) hates swords as a game mode, its not fun, its not challenging, and it does not reflect skill in any form.

Can the playlist please be modified so that swords does not show up as a game type, after you reach rank 30 in lone wolves...

Anyone else agree?

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

Something Canada will never do.

It's tied to an achievement. Not going anywhere.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I love the sword gametype.

The swords gametype is in lone wolves to help people get Steppin Razor, one of the original achievements.

i realize that it is attached to an achievement, but seriously, if you are above a 35, you should already have this achievement

Swords is the only Gametype that takes skill.

Have some tolerance Screamo, we can't all be masters of the Sword.

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

Well, no offense, but you really think they're going to 1. look at this forum for game modification tips or 2. even listen to them if they saw one? Bungie died the day the word "Reach" was uttered in their office and they will never care again. Sorry for the bubble-burst.

Although, really it's not big of a deal with swords. Maybe it's just Murphy's dumb Law, but I sometimes hope for Swords since I still don't have the achievement (at Skill 30 mind you) and want the Elite helmet, but I rarely get it.

I beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on Master Ninja difficulty. If anyone's a master of the sword, I am.
