Subject: Level 50 clans ruining Social Big Team

I used to play SBTB a bunch, and I still do sometimes. There's still a few of those "all-50" teams out there for sure. They're annoying, but you really can't blame them.

They've been playing Halo 3 for a long time. That's why so many of them are 5 Star Generals. And if they've been playing for this long, they won't stop just because of Reach. When Reach came out, the SBTB population dropped, with a bunch of the competitive teams leaving. The teams that are still there need to match with someone, so there's a better chance that they'll play against lower-Trueskill players, like you or me.

What people don't realize is that SBTB is unique. It's a different kind of gameplay. It's essentially the only playlist where having vehicles on the map is guaranteed. In Ranked, you can't find a playlist larger than 4v4 because large-party play (traditionally) is more of a social, casual thing. But it's still fun if you're serious.

If you have a team of 8, you can pull off great winning streaks because you're all on the same page, even if you're not that good. And even if you're not winning every game, you still get some epic objective games. It's always fun, so I don't see why they would stop playing.

I agree with this, My halo account is "MyHearts4Tswift" and ive became a huge BTB fan lately. Im a 45 so im better then most of the people playing it. But its just fun to go in with a mic and fool around and play with some cool people. but it sucks getting blown out by 8 five-star generals. If you try your nuts off in social, then find a new hobby.

But they aren't really trying that hard. It's relatively easy to win if you have a full team in SBTB. You don't have to be shouting callouts or anything like that. If you have 8 decent players (and most people who have played H3 for that long are decent players), you don't have to be trying that hard to win.

Part of the problem is that the H3 population seems like it's gotten screwed up since Reach came out. Most of the people left in H3 are very good players who are used to the game, and new players who haven't played H3 or Reach. You end up seeing a lot of unfair games.

I play games for gameplay, not silly gimmicks

H3 MM warrior

Reach S7, 8 and 9 arena warrior.

H4 MM legend

ITT angry randoms


If you dont like playing against teams of 50s then dont play the game. Fact is if you cant beat 90% of the teams that still search you are really really bad. Again there are maybe 4 or 5 of those players that could be considered decent, and maybe 2-3 are actually good enough to search 50 high

I understand what your saying. I have to admit it does make sense. The last team of 5 stars i played against beat us like 100-34. They were tea bagging and just generally being dicks. I got my 45 and dont care about winning anymore, i just want to have a good time playing. Thats what probably 95% of people playing BTB are playing it for. To have a good time.

Doubt it.
Same. I was just joking.

No good Aussies even play Halo 3 anymore. If they do, it's TS or MLG Customs.

Because they got boosted to a swat 50, boosted rocket race exp until they hit 10K and are too scared to search ranked for fear of deranking. This is why they act like -blam!-s.

Lone Wolves- 46| Terrible matchmaking warrior
Team Slayer- 50|
Team SWAT- 35|
Team Snipers- 44|
Team Doubles- 45|
MLG- 36|

And this wasn't happening already for as long as Halo 3 as been out?

Yes but it is more likely to face these teams now as less people are playing the game.

Then dont play BTB, we can play whatever we want. Besides most of the btb kids are really really bad


Keyword "most". Every once in a while I see a teams together that will scape anyone - and I mean ANYONE.

Guys like:

Impulse - BR
DvMadness - BR
Boss Syrup - Snipe
Feast - BR
Shift - BR

and 3 objective bi#$%es/vehicle pro's.

There's not a lot that you can do against a squad like that, I don't care who you are. Some of if not the very best long range BR's and snipes in the world right there.

Australians are terrible at BTB.

Boss Syrup - Snipe

Shift - BR

and 3 objective bi#$%es/vehicle pro's.


That team isn't good though.

I'm not seeing anywhere where they "enjoy" it. I enjoy BTB, but I dislike matching random players. Search in a party please, because you are ruining Big TEAM Battle.

Well, I think you would be surprised. I see MLG 50's come into BTB all the time and they get worked.

Every player listed there will hold their own searching on their 50's in ranked and they DO.

Not to mention BTB is a totally different skill. You might beat these kids by 5 or 10 in ranked but they will embarrass you in BTB. And the best part is that you will whine about them using vehicles and cry about spawn camping etc etc.

If you still think they aren't good then feel free to search BTB with a team and they will be happy to show you who is good and who isn't.

Oh ok yep I would agree then, madness is cool as is Shift both good at BTB and fun to play with.

  • 02.28.2011 10:44 AM PDT

Deutschland uber alles!

The fact is that the majority of the generals in BTB are bad its just that when they team up there actually a threat hence why they do it. If they played alone they would lose! Feel bad for the BKs.

hahaha, feast is a -blam!- retard, and i've never heard of any of those other guys, i think i've played boss syrup before though, he's decent.


there are a few good players that play mainnly social though, like achronos, nttr bttrz and a couple others. but all the players you mentioned are garbage.


Lol you clearly don't know what you are talking about. The players that I mentioned spawn kill achronos and nttr bttrz. It's not even close.

I wouldn't expect you to know anything about any of the BTB players because you don't play BTB. And I agree with you Feast is certified mentally retarded but he is also one of the best players I have ever seen. Just because you don't like someone doesn't mean that they aren't good. Get your facts straight. I have played against enough pro teams to know what good players play like and there aren't 5 better players in BTB than the one's I listed.

No. Custom games are trash because of the host selection. With 16 people you always end up getting a trash host in customs.

Besides, I already know your skill level by the people you play with. I know most of them. TS parabola, ThugSide, sSyphon, Red, Rooky Fox, Trizix, etc.

By the way nice doubles boosting. Cheater.

lol no, they don't. achronos and nttr bttrz stomp on syphon in team slayer.

by retarded i meant retarded at halo. he's horrible, not to mention he's an idiot too. he was stuck at a 40 in slayer forever, all he does is go negative and blame it on his teammates.

sorry but you're a brig grade 2 with a barely positive k/d, you don't know what good is.


First of all, I never said sSyphon was good or a friend. I just said I know him. The players I listed stomp on nttr bttrz and achronos in BIG TEAM BATTLE. Thats just the way it is. Im sure nttr bttrz and acronos would beat them in TS.

How would you know if feast is bad? Have you played him? He is a 50 in TS not a 40 lol what are you smoking?

I'm a brig grade 2? So what? I've still played pro teams and guess what buddy, go look and find out when my last game was played on this account. Go look.

K?

For all you know my name could be Eclypse Reborn.

K?

You should be more careful when you call someone bad when you really have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how good/bad they really are.

Go play more team slayer because you are afraid to play MLG with the big boys.
