(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

Kill/Death Ratio, that seems to be the best one. It would really determine people's skill.

Personally I would like no ranks. That might not be good becuase most people play becuase of the ranks. If there has to be ranks I voted the 'Your over-all rank is average of all others' becuase I think this would work out a lot better than how it is in Halo 2.

Do you think you can handle my gigantic COC?

-What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
-I intend to live forever; so far, so good.

Um odin, you know ranks are a big role in the game... If there were no ranks, you wouldn't be motivated to play. My opinion is how YOU do on your team not your teammates cuz it'll kill Matchmaking modders completely

The kills and other stats can be misleading - many games i have died on purpose/taken bullets for my team when it furthers a purpose.
Case in point - Team Skirmish-Assault on burial mounds,we had to arm the bomb and their team were doing their best to spawn kill.Our bomb guy managed to crouch upto their base and was on the outside when an idea came to me - if i kill 1 of their guys then he will respawn by their base and probably have a quick check to see if its all clear before coming over and spawn killing again,however if i let them kill me repeatedly then our bomb guy gets the plant nice and easy!
Halo tactics are sometimes deeper than people think so i think the win/loss thing is probably the best as it is.Also a good sniper will get like 25 kills per game and maybe die 3 or 4 times - it doesnt mean hes a better player if hes not furthering the main cause in a big way (unless its slayer i guess).

kill death ratio is good except if u found ur buddy on the other team and he let u kill him costantly kinda like boosting then 1 game would effect it too much, i like the H2 matchmaking
