TIE ME TO A TREE!!!!!

I must say im appalled when it comes to the reach ranking system, they seem to now copy call of duty's system.
Halo 3 's system was good, (before bungie decided to add exp to get to general which was wrong.)
sure theres Arena but i find it that hardly no one plays it and i dont like it.
why cant we have a social list of gametypes for friends and noobs alike.
then have a ranked list of gametypes for the pros.

So if the player wants to be a high rank it forces them to play ranked, which makes them the better player..

look it wasn't broken before so why fix/change it?
played halo since day one, and personally i just want the old system, i think its better.


also another thing, i don't like the fact that i always play forge maps.. either remake them, or do new ones. countdown and swordbase are the only decent maps.

that is all ... . ...

for now.

Bad players don't like to be told they're bad.

Halo 3's ranking system took some degree of skill to get passed the major rank levels (10,20,30,35,40,45,50) and thus people who couldn't get passed a certain level were being told they weren't as good as they want to think they are. They essentially couldn't pretend they were good.

Halo Reachs and CoDs rank system make it so any player can think they're good by being a "high rank" and now they can act like they're good even though they aren't.

The H3 ranking system was far superior to the one we have in Reach. In fact, apart from netcode, H3 is the better game.

If it makes you happy 343 is considering a ranked playlist in Reach.

I like the forums better when the kids are in school. I'm an eclipse ut play customs all the time because match making just isn't fun to play anymore, even with the new maps and playlist it still doesn't feel like Halo to me.

Would it be using the Arena ranking system?
Because that's the only system that's in the game codes.

I don't believe you should be rewarded an EXP just for winning. Or should you have to be rewarded with 0 EXP when your team was crap and you got loads of kills.

It should be like Halo Reach system except you earn 1cR per kill. 0.5cR per assist and things like that. That would definitely tell skill.

We don't know. They could just pull a Halo 3 and have individual ranks for each playlist by using the rank symbols.

Well if Trueskill is as present in Reach as Bungie claimed it was then all they'd have to do is make it visible and bam, ranks.

Trueskill is in Reach so yes that pretty much is all they would have to do.

ANY rank determined by play time is NEVER an indicator of skill...

Which is probably why the Arena that shipped failed. You couldn't be carried to Onyx. Now you can however.
