Got a 46 in LW and just stopped. It's so stupidly random. It should be Slayer BRs 100% of the time.

It is impossible to get a LW 50 in 50 games by the way, even if you came in first for every one.
This lol. It took me 95 straight wins to get to 24.. I don't think you could get to 50 in 40-50 games.

I went outside today. The graphics were AMAZING. The gameplay WASN"T.

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself
Blame it on my ADD baby

I got to a 45 in around 50 games... Well 50 games of actually going for the win, the other games were going for achievements when I was really bad.

I remember on my first account I got from 1 to 28 in about 14 games.. I think LW takes into consideration you overall trueskill.. Because my account was really bad, yet I was able to place 1st 14 games consecutively.

Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

I won (1st/second with a few thirds) around 90 games in a row and received my first loss at level 48. Got 2 more losses on my way to a 50 that I got at 118 exp. This wasn't on this account though, but that should give you an idea of just how long it takes to get a 50 in LW. For some reason the lower levels take forever to get out of in this playlist but you start moving faster in the 30's.

The thing is, a lot of the best default Halo Reach players and some of the biggest default Halo 3 Matchmaking warriors.


Gotta love those verb-less sentences.

I was good up to 44. I dont want to search now, its a playlist full of bks who keep objective and ar starts. I prefer team based playlists

Many people on these forums say how lw are for randoms, blah blah blah. Mainly because they aren't able to get a 50 in it. LW I agree is a really frustrating playlist but there are some people that are really good at lonewolves just because they know what to do in different situations. I have a couple friends who are beast at it but aren't so hot at team games. The people that keep objective know how to play it so obviously they want to play at a playing field where they have a big advantage over you. I suggest you stick to Doubles or TS if you want a 50.

I couldn't get one even if I tried... LW on yellow bar is far too hard when it gets to playing 50s... I got a 48, then couldn't get any higher.

Plus AR starts Objective? LOL please..

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Lone Wolves is easy until about level 47, then it becomes arguably the most difficult playlist to get a 50 in.

  • 04.05.2011 8:02 PM PDT

Don't even get me started.

Factor in the amount of people that cheat in Lone Wolves now and it becomes the most difficult 50, hands down. I gave up at 48.

Everyone just seems to think it is the hardest 50, a mindset which I have never shared. The players are generally pretty poor, so it is inherently easier if you have a decent concept of how to pay FFA. MLG and Throwback were both harder, because good people actually frequented those playlists.

Now Mythic Brawl; that was a hard FFA playlist. LW, not so much.

I found Lone Wolves to be the most difficult probably because of the frustration that came along with it. I undoubtedly faced more skillful players in MLG (obviously).

And I never played Mythic enough to get a decent rank in it, so I wouldn't know how difficult it became.

Yes, Swords, oddball, and AR starts were annoying, but if you were start you could still consistently win those gametypes.

Mythic Brawl was ranked double exp, so naturally it attracted the albinorhino tims of Halo, and all of the tryhards flocked to it, so it was much more difficult than LW. I never surpassed 48.

Wat

Lone Wolves was basically all I played when I started Halo 3, and I'm almost certain that I got to around 20 in a couple of hours. Nowhere near 95 games, and I doubt I won all of them lol.
