11 losses out of 14 games, terrific, isn't it? I've tried to pull my own weight by contributing so many kills, but... Seriously, why are teammates so awful? I swear this system matches me with 1 awful guy with a K/D of 0.31 and two of his guests, while the opposition are semi-decent.

I try and try, but I can't win on my own and none of my friends are online in the morning, so I'm restricted to playing on my own for a while. Reach frustrates me, but yet I see myself coming back, eager to win more games. Unfortunately, that doesn't come to pass.

Ok, tell me this, I was trying Super Slayer for a change, there were three options to choose from.

Here they are:

Slot 1: AR Starts, Powerhouse.
Slot 2: DMR Starts, Arena Zealot.
Slot 3: Elite Slayer, Chateau.

All 7 guys chose Elite Slayer, while I, the only player to choose DMR starts. Why oh why? What's also amazing was the fact that the game was so laggy, I couldn't kill anyone at all. So I left and said -blam!- it.

Right now, I'm close to giving up on this game and move on to Gears of War 3. What makes you think Halo 4 won't have the same -blam!- we seeing right now?

Funny thing is, I'm not mad, just fed up with everything about Reach.

I don't think I'm competitive enough to play MLG nor either of my friends. Obviously we play to win, but MLG is not for us.

I've read your thread, I really wish something like this would happen, although we've got a barrier to slip by and that's 343.

Maybe I play Reach in the afternoon, I think it's my best bet I have so far.

IT's easier to complete the challenge if you play with friends.

Try ZB slayer. DMR only, no Elite option and no crappy community maps. Sure you will still get bad team mates and bad host´s.

The only problem with ZB Slayer is that its pretty much mimicked Team Slayer settings (with ZB of course) and as a result doesn't play nearly as well as it could/should.

Play ffa gametypes. That way if you don't win you can only blame yourself.

You could try the maps/gametypes in customs with friends if you wanted to give it ago.


Yeah, they're settings that a lot of people would enjoy. Tbh settings like that is what ZB Slayer should have had from the start because it just works better than Default settings.

I'll update the thread an inconspicuously "bump" it when I get unbanned in a week.


That might be your best bet, you could also try to find others that play when you do. So you're not going out of your way just to play with friends.
