Subject: Halo 3 should be taken offline.

I never thought I would say this but, Reach is better than H3. The host advantage/disadvantage is way less noticeable in Reach. On top of that if you play anything ranked you either A.) Get derankers on your team because kids still suck, or B.) Get cheated, because kids still suck. Pretty much the only thing that's left on H3. Take it down, it's cancerous.

Fear is for the weak.

Some people still enjoy Halo 3. And if Bungie/i343 decides to take down a heavily populated next-gen server, there are going to be a lot of rages, maybe not just rages but actual riots because people get that serious. Think before you go off spouting nonsensical bull.

If you hate H3 so much, why do you play it?

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

There is no reason why both Halo 3 and Reach can't co-excist on Xbox Live.

Read the OP. That's exactly why. Low population full of cheaters = getting cheated regular.

Like I said, all the kids cheat. Why would you leave something online that's full of illegal activity? You probably cheat though.

Halo: Reach pre-ordered!

I never see cheaters, I may have seen ONE ever. I still play regularly because H3 is better than reach

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

It's not illegal to bridge host or standbye or host boot.. The only "illegal" thing is DDoSing, and it's not even that bad when used in Halo 3.. It's not like people are using the Storm Botnet to hit you offline.. It's also not like DDoSing is exclusive to Halo 3, either.

It sounds like you are just mad that you got cheated once. Reach is currently a terrible game, and even with "all the cheating", I'd rather play Halo 3.

I would follow Commview's advice, and not play it. 10,000 - 35,000 people still play Halo 3 daily. It's far from being dead.

  • 08.28.2011 2:22 PM PDT

halo 3 > Reach because of armor abilities and lack of good maps in reach

I haven't been standby'd in years. I'm talking about ddosing, which is a federal offense. I've been cheated loads bro. multiple accounts with mlg 50s. everyone cheats now. any playlist you play is going have some kid with a shell booter nerding it up in his basement with his online gangster friends.
Like I said, the majority of the kids left online in Halo 3 are committing a crime when they play. Therefore Halo 3 should be taken offline.

If you're going to make things up:

everyone cheats now.Like I said, the majority of the kids left online in Halo 3 are committing a crime when they play.
Get your story straight.

There are the same amount of people cheating now, but just less people playing. This means that there is a higher concentration of cheaters. You claim that everyone cheats, which is obviously wrong. I play 50 high every day, and I hardly every get cheated, the only thing I have to deal with is terrible connection.

Public shell booters shouldn't even be a problem, as they are not strong at all. The most they will do is make you lag a little bit. Shell booters are used by heaps of people, most likely multiple people at the same time. The shells are unreliable and weak for the most part, so you shouldn't be worrying about them.

Do you play MLG in 3s or 4s? I have played a fair bit of MLG lately, but only in 2s. I haven't been cheated yet.

The only thing that should be taken offline are cheaters ;)

  • 08.28.2011 3:20 PM PDT

If anything. Reach should be removed and Halo 3 should be given priority. Not gonna happen though because of -blam!- money.

I don't see why you would want to remove Halo 3. If you don't like it, don't play it. Some people still enjoy it, like me. What benefit would you get from the game being removed that you couldn't already have?
