Subject: Team Slayer Going Downhill?

Have faith in me

When I enter Matchmaking and go into the 'Team Slayer' playlist, I imagine a full 4 vs 4 game, with me becoming the MVP and getting a promotion. But what do I really get?

A. People leaving.
Why do people leave?
1. They want to make poeple mad
2. They die once and give up
3. They start to lose

EX.
I was playing Team Slayer on Boundless today and one person on my team leaves so its a 4 on 3 battle. Then theres one player on my team who barely even played so its 4 on 2. Then, one other player leaves on the other team so its 3 on 2. Next, theres 2 players on the other team who were NEVER there. So it was 2 on 1. If those people hadnt of left it wouldve been a fair battle. Even though I won I felt bad for the guy. He was all alone against 2. His teammates let him down. It wasnt fair.

Just because you die once or start to lose doesnt mean the Covenant has taken over the world. No one is perfect. Have you ever seen someone with a perfect K/D ratio?

B. Cheaters
I've seen many cheaters in Matchmaking in every playlist, not just Team Slayer. Why do they cheat?
1 and only reason: Winning
Everyone loves winning. But winning every time? IMPOSSIBLE.

C. Betrayals
Anywhere someone will betray at least one teammate. We all know we've betrayed one person. But repeating it 4 or 5 times, thats not good. If you edit the settings, when someone betrays too many times, you can boot them. And some DUMB people boot them and they lose one teammate which makes it harder for the team with the least players to win and get promoted.

Why do people leave, cheat and betray? I just answered it for you, but think DEEPER about it, WHY DO THEY DO THIS?

My main issue is the groups in it. I'm pretty much stuck playing Rumble Pit due to the slowly increasing number of clans in most game types.

Halo 3 for the most part is going downhill. Most of the nice and funny people were replaced by complete idiots. That's why I almost never play matchmaking.

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

Thank god.

And OP just because there is a bad host or you lag out doesn't mean you got cheated.

I agree with all of you guys. Thanks to Reach, Halo 3 is becoming less populated. Yes, Reach is a good game but I'd rather H3.

Yes I have.

And most of the time, people quit out that aren't on my team. Just another reason why this game is easier than Reach, people don't quit in that game because they're scared of being quit banned. I think that should be put in place in Halo 3.

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

Something Canada will never do.
