Subject: ENOUGH of boosting in Halo 3

So I took a step back into Halo 3 today. I decided to play Team Slayer. Do you know what I found? Not legitimate players. Boosters. Everywhere.

I can hardly recall a normal game. Every game until my last I always played boosters. Nobody ever tried. Always just standing around trying to lose. My last game ended up having a teammate afk then "woke up" and team shotted me for the last half (eventually losing).

How come Bungie can't do anything about this? Do you not care Halo 3 even exists? I mean it was one of your most popular games ever yet you just lay it by the wayside for REACHHHHHHH (because everyone knows no game can top Reach's amazing game play).

I would really love to get into matchmaking by myself without getting betrayed or play against people of skill.

Here's one of the matches I played.

Booster Match

Reality is broken.

Also, you're not your stats.

So basically nothing has changed?

Not really... I mean I figure when Reach comes out people decide "Hey, what's the point of boosting?" Nope. They keep going thinking that it's worth it.

Not my first B.Net account obviously

They're called derankers. Only boosters when they are actually boosting somebody, and trying.

"Were it so easy..."

Players STILL boost in Halo 3? REALLY?

Yep. Every game I play on Halo 3 ranked has either boosters or derankers. That's why I always stick to Social when I play now. In fact, the last game I played on Team Snipers it had one deranker on our team and a booster on the other.

Another day, and other horrible kid complaining about derankers and whining about level lock.

If you weren't fkn terrible, derankers wouldn't be a problem. The fact that it's been this long, and your truskill is still low enough to match them really says something.

Level lock. Gotta love these bad excuses.

Gotta love these horrible replies. It would take someone like you to make a reply such as this. You're simply assuming I'm bad at Halo. My skill has absolutely nothing to do with finding derankers and boosters. You're simply ignoring the fact that they exist by calling me bad at Halo. If it means anything to you, I'm 40 in MLG and 47 in Lonewolves. I doubt I'd be there if I'm so bad at Halo, as you say.

Regardless, you yourself are probably guilty of being a booster. I'm just simply tired of never being able to play people of true skill. Bungie admitted themselves in an article posted here... there is such a thing as level lock.

I have so many people agreeing with me on this. Reading this comment doesn't phase me, kid. Get back to boosting already. Keep thinking you're going somewhere with your plethora of one months. Keep trying to be someone when you're simply a random that no one knows or cares about.

Most boosters are <level 30.

If you weren't fkn terrible and were capable of getting past the low ranks you wouldn't match them.

I'm a 50 in everything but LW, guess how many derankers I match?

And there is no such thing as level lock. It's the typical go-to excuse for retards when someone calls their level into question and they have nothing else to say.

How do I know? I leveled my friends staffy to a 50.

I really have to go bring out my record? No, your entire comment displays utter ignorance. You can't acknowledge people are good or even better than yourself. I can't pride myself with getting a 50 but I can say I haven't cared enough to push to get one. Again, at one time I had a 47 in LW and 40 in MLG. 40s in majority other playlists. As you say, lower than level 30 is where boosters and BKs reside, I've more than surpassed that level and beaten your arbitrary and idiotic logic.

Even so, I haven't really attempted to do a whole lot of Halo 3 on this account so it's not going to look extremely impressive since I've only gotten to 21. It hasn't be too hard for me so far. Reason why I'm low here is because my main account had run out of live. Obviously you'll put my "47" into question so go look up I Pwnz BKs if it's so incredibly important. So on my adventures of ranking up, I endlessly run into boosters. This is simply just a rant not a complaint and cry post. I tire of Bungie claiming they have ban powers and how amazing they yet they never use them.

Level lock to me... is winning game after game after game and simply not leveling up. I've never understood why other people can rank up and why I get hit so hard with a single loss after countless wins. Again, I hear you spraying "BECAUSE UR BAD AND ITS AN EXXCUSSSEE YOURRR BAD". Once again, I have enough sense to know why I'm not ranking up. It doesn't take much brain power.

But since you're the typical individual that will, again, say something similar to what's been posted before, I'll leave it at that. I could care less to prove myself any more to a random over Xbox Live. Remember kid, you're nobody. Nobody knows who you are. You'll never be anybody. All those 50s will never get you a thing. Keep on being random. It's all you're good for.
