Play it, love it, rate it.

The only thing that applies to me is the melee ToD. I guess that just shows that I'm an "up close and personal" kinda guy. I really don't see how this determines that I'm a bad player especially since players often get into close encounters with one another.

theoretically speaking Cr rank should give an idea of skill


It gives an idea of how much a player has played. It's similar to a 50 in H3 in that everyone who was good at H3 had a 50, but not everyone who had a 50 in H3 was good. Everyone who's good at Reach has played a lot (maybe not on the same account!) but not everyone who plays a lot is good. The problem is that there are a lot more bad players who play a lot than there were bad players who were 50's.

and if armour lock doesn't take skill to use effectively then how come bad players suck with it?

Armor lock doesn't take very much skill to master. Just because there are a few bad players who suck with it doesn't mean it takes very much skill.

I play for fun and armory completion. :)


1. Your K/D ratio is below 1
1.91

7. Your ToD is melee
#5

4. Your AR K/D ratio is much above 1
.44

8. You never ever got rated in Arena
3 seasons, gold the past 2

2. Your favorite playlist is grifball/infection/action sack
Haven't played since August, ignore the hammer stats, they're legit but months old.

9. Your K/D is below 1 in most playlists
Only MLG.

5. Your ToD is the AR
#17

10. Your pistol K/D is below 1
3.17

6. If you think cR rank shows skill
lolno

3.If you think Armor Lock takes skill
lolno


Conclusion: This list can determine bad players, but does not catch bad players like me.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Everything except 8

Mythic Mode Progress on Reach:
Winter Contingency, perfection.
Other levels in progress.

Positive KDR with the AR? If you don't have this then that's kinda sad to be honest.

Someone doesn't understand how Halo works...

7,4,8,2,5, and 10 don't show that you are bad.

At the very least, some of them will show that you're stupid.

Oh I do.

It's just, the weapons in Reach basically do all the work for you. It's been so dumb down to where everyone should have a positive kdr, even with the lolAR.

Kid, you have a 1.02 in Rumble Pit. Quit trying to act like your opinion means anything here.

Don't start something you can't finish. ;)

I thought you already knew I wasn't a kid? Unless you consider 19 to be the age of a kid still.

Plus you're trying to use social kdr? You already lost this discussion.

You're either a kid, or have absolutely no thumbs. I don't get it. How can someone be so bad at a game where half of the population consists of 7 year olds and guests who have never played Halo before?

  • 10.31.2011 1:57 PM PDT

1, 7, and 8 apply. I must suck.

Because I don't like playing in Team Armor Lock or boost in FFA Crazy King like the majority do? At least base your arguments around WLR rather than social kdr because kdr means nothing. It's too flawed to even be a reliable means of telling who's good or bad. It gives somewhat of an idea, but it's something you shouldn't go by.

[/quote]I don't know why people use the AR when the DMR/Pistol is so much better all the time.


You do realise that if you came round the corner and I had a AR and I loaded a full clip into your back, or even face. you are dead.. The AR is great for knocking DMR-ers out of zoom and with sparks flying in your face,... Again.. your dead..

Try close combat me with the DMR

Hey Follow me on twitter!

Hmm. I have to agree with 3 and 5. But with 7 i have to say i love melee a lot but i dont use it all the time. I use melee when im in a situation where i popped someones shields and i can melee instead of wasting ammo.

  • 10.31.2011 3:05 PM PDT

Tehehe. I'm so bad. =)
