RC, are you banned from Waypoint currently?
Who isn't banned from Waypoint?

Goat, ThreeSix, VVhale, me. Probably others who only have one post or so.

Me.
If you post respectively and informatively like ThreeSixXero, you don't get banned.

It's amazing, really.

As I please and in open forum.

I need to know your reasoning for your claim.

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

Reach host ranking algorithm: (a*quit_percentage + b*isMexican + c*(1/KDR) + d*hasGuest) * 100
where a > b = d > c

I'm not banned, but I haven't really posted in a long while.

I'd sooner play Grifball than interact with the retards at Waypoint.

There is no way I'm going to be "respectful" in the face of utter stupidity. I have to do that on a daily basis in real life, I'm not doing it on the internet.

Nope. I just know I would get banned if we had this discussion over there.
Well you have my attention now RC and this is the wild west, so draw partner. What do you have for me?

Meh, I thought that a lot of people were bound to get Reach for Christmas, so I predicted the population would stay the same.

Your base ideas for "improving" Arena are horrible.

Keeping the same bad maps and just throwing more Armor Abilities into the mix doesn't solve anything. Especially when there isn't an option to avoid such a thing. The people that the Arena playlist is for is the competitive players and your suggestions would be the destruction of what little competitive value they fought for with the removal of armor lock.

The best settings that playlist ever had were the season 1 option of Slayer Pro. No AA except Sprint and no radar.

Throwing the Arena into a sea of chaos won't help and I can't believe there is anyone in existence that thinks it would.

I don't what other horrible ideas you could possibly have floating around in there, but I seriously hope no one with any weight in the future of Halo takes your suggestions for Competitive settings seriously.

I though the differing DMR or NR loadouts they had in (season 4 I think?) were pretty good.

Slayer pro also had the choice between a Needle Rifle and DMR. The only difference was the pistol secondary and hologram.

Hi.

Arena is inferior and verging redundancy. Why it's still even being discussed is beyond me. MLG does everything it does, but MLG does those things so unbelievably better. The Arena Ranking System isn't fun nor addictive, so adding that to MLG would introduce a net-accomplishment of 0. The only thing that could improve MLG and the "competitive Reach player's" experience (quotes emphasized) would be increasing the restrictions on TrueSkill matches. And even that is debatable because it would reduce the already mediocre population of the playlist.

Tl;dr - Improving Reach (at least on the competitive side of things) is a futile effort, as MLG has already perfected all that can be perfected within the realms of Reach.

So, you are telling me, we cant have this conversation on Waypoint? That was well written and stated your point. I should point out that what I have suggested from the start is that 343 needs to go all the way, one way or the other. The middle ground is pleasing nobody, plain and simple, I have my ideas, you have yours. But heres the thing RC, within the next couple of monthly updates it does not work out for me, I hope it works out for you, because allowing the ranked play in Halo to have only a few thousand players in its playlist is pathetic and something needs to be done to get players in that playlist.

whats the point. Reach is beyond further repairs at this point. It is too late. Reach is now at the max its going to be. Halo 4 comes out in the Fall/Winter. If it is good, no one competitive will come back to Reach.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

I thought I'd be too busy playing Prototype to even look at Reach's case.

But I'm glad it's still there.

Ok clone, you read the the OP I assume and I got another one, Reach is not done climbing, before Halo 4 I believe it will at least land 5, if not 4. Care to make a prediction?

Reach only managed to attract non dedicated players by being bundled in the Christmas Xbox.

The real staying power of Halo is attracting and keeping dedicated players. Reach wasn't very good at this.

Reach will continue to fall on the charts.

Maybe you would care to make a prediction about Bnet when they stop supporting stats? Time to get the book on manners out and dust it off.

I could take that post and copy and paste it to Waypoint and it would not result in a mod or ban, ironicly when you start talking about the post, you start getting into the area that could get you modded or banned.
