Subject: 'Social playlists use trueskill'

In squad I have an 80% win ratio with 474 won and 119 lost with a 2.73 k/d.

Then someone says 'Social playlists use trueskill'

Then this happens.

Trueskill in Reach is more or less a myth save for the Arena playlist. Almost all of my matches favor 1 team, be it mine or the other.

Quite obviously, Trueskill doesn't exist.

That's why I get games like this.

Lack of Trueskill leads to garbage games for me. This is why I don't find myself improving. This is why playing games of Halo Reach is like playing Russian Roulette, for me.

ONly good people go in with a full team or a team of 4.
My squad slayer kd is somewhat good. Unfortunately I have 1 loss in it.

Maybe if you didn't die 10 times your team could have won

He still died 10 times. Dying is hindering your team.

Reach is def. the worst to match people up of all Halos.

OK recruit.

Truskill is there, but it will alter its restrictions for the sake of search times. Good thing too, because I absolutely hate matching tryhards in default Reach.

  • 12.31.2011 8:00 AM PDT

Actually, Trueskill is fine. It's far more likely that every single "bad" person in all the mentioned games were simply having bad games at the same time.


Yup.

Trueskill is not their ... search with the people around my skill option and matches like that still happen far more often than they should if Trueskill did exist ....

So you would rather match people around you own skill level to make the game more frustrating than it should be? Default Reach simply doesn't work in a competitive environment.

Oh I knew it doesn't work. No lie, the only reason I ever got into the Arena was because my friends wanted me to. Awful map selection, jetpack, cheaters, lopsided starting spawns, etc etc.

Notice how even you called him an "ex". If one is smart, they would stop playing Arena for now until 343i decides to update Arena.

That's why you play TU-Reach, Sanuel :P Less frustrating even against people your skill (well, who are really worse because the reduced bloom isn't helping them as much now :D)

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

What was the population of the playlist during that time? It could be that there simply wasn't anyone around your skill level to pair you with.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.
