Subject: Should i be rejoicing this?

There just aren't enough moments in the day to rectify the wrongs of the past.

No poll.

Just played an Invasion Slayer game against a full-team of communicating Inheritors and Forerunners with one or two Heroes, and i cleaned their clocks. With some help from one guy on my team, we managed to beat them as Elites with a score of 80 to 58 on Paradiso.

And they all had pretty decent K/D's so they weren't bad, but at the end, their entire team was negative and they rage-quit from the lobby. Could even hear one of the guys cursing in-game cause i was being as crafty and deceitful as possible.

Thoughts? I'm also a Hero rank if that means anything, but also discuss those moments when you beat people online that you don't think you should have.

There was no communication on our team at all.

No. There are lots of bad teams out there. Communication alone doesn't make a team good.

A. They had decent K/D ratios
B. No one on our team was communicating
C. Outmatched rank-wise
D. Out-numbered by one
E. I could go on but nah.

You get my point?

1. They probably stat against randoms all day.
2. and...? You said this team was, but that isn't going to make them instantly better than randoms.
3. Rank means -blam!-.
4. Probably because none of them have individual skill.
5. You don't really need to.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

There are some pretty awful full parties out there, and rank is not an indication of skill. A lot of parties don't utilize call-outs when they play Invasion. I almost never do.

But yeah, I'd consider beating a full party as a random something to be proud of.

1. They could do that, but when a K/D is 130,000 to 60,000, i take it seriously.
2. It will make them instantly better than randoms, if we are all cut off and not communicating, they can be; relaying postions, the weapons we have, locations of other weapons, and where to attack someone.
3. When all i see is Inheritors and Forerunners everyday that i play Reach, it gets to be a drag when everyone else cowers under them and quits out of a game before it's even started. Then i end up outnumbered and being forced to quit, or suffering mass amounts of deaths.
4. Individual skill? As in incapable of playing solo?
5. Maybe i do...(;

Thank you for seeing my side of things, all i seem to be getting is the good parties recently though truthfully.

Most full parties can be considered good when compared to a team of randoms. I'm sure against other full parties, these teams get worked as evidenced by your victory against them. You guys didn't have nearly the capacity for coordination that they did, yet they still lost. Imagine how they'd do against an organized full party if they couldn't beat a team of randoms.

They could be, but im not going to message any of them, even the girl that was on the team, and find out. When we're outgunned like how i was in that game, i don't pull any punches, and some of the stuff i did to kill them was asinine in of itself and somehow worked. And by asinine, i mean cheap and dirty. Like bringing a gun to a boxing match.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

You will soon realize these teams usually suck ass and probably stat in BTB all day.

Not really just cause they are inheritors and tell each other where to go doesn't really mean they have the skill to back it up , Ive been up against inheritors in swat still won with a bunch of dumb ass randoms, they took the fire while i cleaned them up, Happens some times.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

Rank means nothing in Reach. If you get lucky with a jackpot or a credit weekend, that's not you doing anything special.

But I've been in parties with good communication and we wiped the other teams, so you must have been doing a fine job, along with your teammates, of course.

Not really. Why? Because it's invasion.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

...but also discuss those moments when you beat people online that you don't think you should have.Whether I'm doing good in Halo this day or that day seems to be random for me; sometimes I'm the guy with half of my team's score, and sometimes I can't shoot a Warthog right in front of me.
Congratulations.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Wow. I don't recognize any of them, and they appear to be not very good.

Their stats aren't even good; none of them have over 2.0 (which in Reach is incredibly easy, ESPECIALLY if playing with teams all day) an that's about all I can get from Waypoint's crappy website.
