Always up for REACH customs!

It would only make sense then to give complete idiots voting privileges for something they don't understand.


Stay home and play Halo 4 on November 6th. All day.

When I play to win I voice message people call outs.

I don't see any votes being casted in Team Slayer, or Living Dead

spiral out

Get over yourself OP. The game has to be designed for everyone, or at leas the majority of players. The majority of players are bad or casual gamers. In any proper voting system, the majority should have the largest say. If every game in every playlist had 2 good players on 6 worse ones, they worse players would get dominated by the minority on maps that the 2 good players think is good.

What the game should to is match players of similar skill up with each other, like in ranked H3. Your idea is terrible for Reach as a whole, but a proper ranking system would help it.

I win, you lose, get over it!

I is meaningless.

Discuss.


This is all I understood when I read this.


But OnTopic: Just because someone isn't the "Elite" or an "Onyx" doesn't mean they are terrible at Arena. If you don't want to be an Onyx, you shouldn't be put down and "not be able to vote" on a gametype as such.

  • 04.20.2012 5:46 PM PDT

All this is based on the idea that reach is a competitive game.

Last i checked, it no longer is. Atleast according to you halo "experts".

"Those who are Onyx are the best, 'elitest', and smartest players."
This isn't a generalization, it's a straight fact.

It's the same as with Halo 3 50s.


So, would I be allowed to vote following that logic?

I've always wanted to vote, supporting women's suffrage all the way.
Not what I said.

Stay on target.


Bu-but, you said it is the same as 50s.

I'm a 50.

Would I be in the same league as an Onyx?
50 is far better than onyx. Its meaningless if you get it after reach came out.

Action Sack is where it's at.

If you're not at least Onyx (which is laughably easy to get)

So it's basically letting the best, smartest run things.


Says Onyx people are the best and smartest, yet also says it's laughably easy to get. Flawed logic?

sha doink doink

In fairness I've never gotten onyx and I do know what to vote for. Maybe if I played arena in a party I could get onyx, but honestly I'm not sure that would be the case. I think you would agree Bookshelf that I'm not entirely retarded, right?

  • 04.20.2012 8:56 PM PDT

Sigh...

If you're in Onyx

You should not be allowed to vote in Matchmaking for gametypes / maps.

If the game pairs up players who all are Onyx, it just assigns a game type and map.

If you're Onyx, you don't know what a fun game type is and thus your vote is meaningless.

Discuss.

Today is a good day to be a Spartan

If your not Onyx, then feel free to tell OP what an ass they are for even making the post!!

My proposed system is perfect.

Outside of ranked playlists, players with a higher cR-rank get extra votes. This is because they have played the game a lot longer than the Warrant Officers in the lobby and hence can make a more informed decision as to what map/gametype should be played.

Player on split-screen do not receive extra votes as they do currently.

In Arena, blue team gets twice as many votes per person. This is to prevent the red team from winning the game in the voting lobby.

If you have a negative K/D, you shall be vote-banned outside of social playlists such as LD and Grifball.

No retard. It's laughably easy to be good at Reach. No excuse for no Onyx.

Hating on Arena isn't cool anymore, you're like a month late. Stop trying to fit in with people who think you're a moron.

It's been a while actually. All work and no play makes Jack a dole boy, especially if you work graveyard. :P

Reach is total garbage. I'm proud it failed and died. Hope this message gets to 343 and they make a proper game.

Quit competitive Halo, I have acquired something called "having a life". Play it time to time as of now. Some people should also try this thing called "having a life".

Honestly I'd love to slap kids like you, in Halo that is. You are nothing but a Reach warrior who thinks he's good. Running arena with Im Pigeon on Australian host conncetion doing the 2's glitch isn't skill. Anyone can get into party chat in teams of two and run arena, it's nothing to be proud of child. Now stop acting so cocky and just go run arena doing the two's glitch some more, we don't need to hear it. #IcanHasVirginity

Is there anyone who doesn't two's trick when they play Arena?

I personally consider foreigners a non-entity. No matter who wins it is always connection dependent so games against foreigners don't count.
