Subject: How do you think Lone Wolves will be now (to get a 50)?

I'm going for the 50 in Lone Wolves because I'm bored.

I'm not a very good player, but I have always seen Lone Wolves as a pretty easy playlist. Will it be too time consuming/too difficult for an average player?

Do you think the standard of players will be very high at this point in the games life?

LW is the hardest 50 to get.

Not because good players play it, (some do) but because the game types are horrible.

Swords have no place in ranked. I lose every swords match because I'm west coast Canada, and i play on nothing but beanbag host in the playlist.

Then you have gametypes like KOTH on guardian, or other gametypes where you placing is totally dependent on your intial spawn.

Then you have circle boosters.

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

Something Canada will never do.

I agree. But, I would love to 50 it.

Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

It definitely takes the longest.

This is the only reason I quit trying for a LW 50...

This basically, I like legit LW games but kids circle boosting for a video game rank is stupid.

I've seen kids get legit 50's in the playlist in around 40-50 games.
But it's definitely not easy, they just seem to have a knack for it.

The average player might get around a 40, but that's about it.

meh iv been at a 47 for the longest time in LW. I could go get the 50 if I put the time into it, but TS is just more fun, and I always have people online to search with.

  • 04.05.2011 12:44 PM PDT

Better luck next time buddy.

I have a 42 in it and I really can't go pass that limit.

36 exp in Lone Wolves ;)

Only played one game today :/ Not sure if it'll be worth the effort tbh.

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.

Not a chance in under 60 games. I haven't seen it done. I acheived an undefeated LW 50 back in Aug/July '10 in 77 or 78 games. No way it can be done in 30-40.

No you haven't.

You might see kids who have only played on their 50 40-50 times since the update, but i doubt you've seen someone go 1-50 in 40-50 games.

  • 04.05.2011 1:44 PM PDT

I've seen people get it in around 50 games. Just get 1st-1st-3rd-1st-1st-3rd a bunch.

Weow kid, do you even lift?

Right now? Hard. Circle Boosters RuN the playlist.

Thank god i got my LW 50 and never have to touch the playlist again ;)

  • 04.05.2011 2:08 PM PDT

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

I got my 45 in it today. It's been pretty easy for the most part, I've encountered a few 'teams' though which ruins it. I've got a 48 in Lonewolves before and I expect I'll get that or above shortly. However, it is a very tough playlist, your initial spawn is very significant. Some players just seem to have nack for it.

Nice. I've found it pretty easy so far just never really play it so don't know how difficult the 50 will be.

I have only played one game of lone wolves on my first halo 3 account I made and never played it again just because of the -blam!- game types it offers, I always thought ranked was a more competitive set of playlist but anything that has AR starts or people that crouch around corners with a shotgun and watch radar is just straight up -blam!-, only way I would play ranked FFA is if they brought MLG FFA back as a playlist which they should because it was awesome when it was around.

The biggest problem when you're a higher level in it (I'm a 43) is that nowadays all its made of is people working together and it pisses me off.

  • 04.05.2011 5:11 PM PDT

Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

It is impossible to get a LW 50 in 50 games by the way, even if you came in first for every one.
