Subject: PLZ NO VISIBLE LEVEL SYSTEM IN XBOX LIVE FOR H3

I know a lot of you probably disagree right now but here me out, if no one, not even you could see your level on xbox live matchmaking, it would save a whole lot of stress, there would be no modders or cheaters tryin to get there levels up, no screaming kids cause they leveled down, no people purposly trying to level down, and of course we'd all take loosing alot easier. Thats not to say that level system wouldnt still be used for matchmaking, you just wouldnt see it.

What do you think?

I think that would be a great idea. It would match you with people you don't even know the level of, since levels wouldn't be visible. Cheating hopefully wouldn't happen as often also, because of the non-competitiveness (don't know if it is spellied right).

Non-modded matchmaking, ahhhh! Smells so good!

exactly, bassically, loosing would be much easier to handel, I mean Halo 2 is the only online game where I'v gotten mad at loosing at all

I kind of agree, I rember a few friends and I were toying around with actual ranks. For example, you are Pvt from, 1-10 PFC from 10-20, Cpl from 20-30, than SGT from 30-40, finally 50 is LT.

in the middle of each is diffrent variaryations of rank First LT, so on adn so forth.

1.Some people would get pissed off with the change, go in every room and tk if ff is on.
2.Buddy list, they'd just join the room they're friend set up, lvl up or down.
3.Get their buddies phone number, communicate to set things up.

U kno guys, not to toot my horn (i always wanted to say that) but we have a quick and easy solution to modding, cheating, and little kids freaking out, its would seem like a Halo online paradise. A solution to every complant anyone has ever had about online halo play

you last couple of sentences you say that there would be a level system but you wouldnt see it. How would you know your level. Ranks is what makes matchmaking fun and you dont want ranks just play customs or stick to training. Level sytem is fine its just the cheaters that ruin matchmaking

  • 06.04.2006 2:49 PM PDT

lol, id have to agree, thats more what i want to see is tranparencey from one player to the next, if nothing else, I think it should definatly help with all the things I talked about earlier

I like the whole rank thing as actual ranks idea, but I think the top rank should be Master Chief Petty Officer ;)

One game I'm not joking a little like 7 year old said and I quote " tell me what your dick looks like so I can imagine it in my head and beat off to it"

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

No levels or if you didn't see your levels would ruin competition. Like Team Training, players would quit more and not try as hard. It is not good for the game. Ranks are FINE! Modders ruined part of it, but Bungie and Microsoft are taking care of them. Modding on Xbox 360 for Halo 3 will be more difficult I imagine, too. I think they'll do a better job against standbying, too.

What i was taling about xyodax was that somewhere in ur memory is ur rank and u are matched with players of that rank just like now, but u dont know what that rank is, but goin back to what i just said, maybe transparency is the key ur still ranked in regular matchmaking but not as blatently, we'll just have to see what Bungie has in store for H3 live

honestly i think there should be no level system at all. For one, it will never ever be any more fair matches than you would have by just playing randomly, i've played people at the same level that seemed like they had never played before, just as people at that same rank seemed like they must be bungie employees or better. Also, mismatches are fun. It may piss you off to get owned, but its just part of the game.
