Subject: bring back the 1-50 rank system (halo 2) *BUNGIE EMPLOYEE MUST READ*

why did they get rid of the level 1-50 rank system? that made the game addicting. that is hands down the reason why i dont play halo reach. the arena ranking isnt good enough, its boring.

im talking about halo 2's rank system. it was win 3 games in a row then you rank up, lose 3-4 games in a row then you rank down. you could go on bungie.net and look at your status and it showed a bar how close you were to ranking up again which would be like 1 or 2 more games.

gears 3 is a masterpiece yet i dont play it either because they have no rank system. why should i play for fun? thats boring. i dont want to put hard work into killing people for no reason. it takes lots of energy to be focused every second of the game.

i played halo 2 and halo 3 for 16 hours a day just because of the rank system. i always ranked up and down which kept me going. i wanted to get to level 50 badly. i know some of you are going to bash rank, but its usually the bad players who bash rank sytems.

Why would a Bungie employee read this or have anything to do with Halo?

Bungie has nothing to do with Halo any more.

Halo 2 and Halo 3 used completely different ranking systems.

It also wasn't win 3 or 4 games to go up at the higher ranks. There was a "pre-set" number of games you had to win to go up, depending on what rank you were/what rank "set" you were in and assuming you were vsing players your exact level (or averaged).

Fortunately, there are a number of players who are NOT overt tryhards and who enjoy the game for the sake of the game, not merely because they need to vindicate their ego through a meaningless number. A lot of people enjoyed the other ranking systems in their own way, which is fine, but Reach's rank system has its own merits. If you don't like the direction of this or future video games, then don't play them.

noobs disagree even if they have an unranked playlist because they know there are skilled players having intense matches while they play for fun. video games used to be for fun only, online gaming is meant to be competitive these days thats why there are tournaments where you play for over $50,000. video games are more than what they were before
