Haha where the nearest liquor and ammo store is IMO.
Was a decent update Frankie, however something bothered me. I’ve noticed quite a few people over the last month or so say in the weekly report they were simply in a game where there was already someone cheating.
Now I don’t have Live yet, but plan to by the time H3 rolls around, and I’m sort of concerned. If I’m matched up with other people that I don’t know...and I will literally know nobody when I get connected, if someone is cheating and I don’t know they are and I’m in the same game as them, there’s a chance I could get banned as well? That doesn’t sound very user friendly. One guy, or his mom, couldn’t really tell who, said he played for 3 hours and was purma banned...Bungie says, all the people on his friends list were cheaters, so he wasn’t innocent.
So my question is, how do you spot cheaters and or bridgers? How do you know if you've been matched up with one and if you do...then what? Leave the game when you know? Or leave a match list prior to starting the game? Report it?...unplug your Xbox and say nothing?
You guys dont really incurage people to report cheaters if your going to ban the person that reported them, only because they were in the same game as the cheater?
I’m sure not everyone who gets banned cheated, and if you ban them for being in a game with someone who is cheating, then I can see how a lot of people who are new to Live (or in my case know absolutely nothing about it) could get screwed over.
Perhaps what would be smart, although not as funny for some of you, would be to educate people so they know what to look for when playing so that they don’t enter a game with someone who is breaking the rules. Its nice to have rules, but it sounds like prehaps some people dont understand them, or dont know well enough to know when someone else there playing with or aganced is breaking the rules. I could get pulled over by a cop for driving 140, (kms) and he would say, "I pulled you over for driving too fast, this is a parking lot, its not safe to drive that fast here." and then I would know why my lecence was taken, but if Im driving along and someone blows past me doing 140 on the highway, and I was driving the limit, a cop couldnt very well pull me over and say..."well you were sharing the same road with that maniac, I couldnt get him, so I pulled you over instead." If this is what your doing with the matchmaking, matching people up with cheaters, and then banning everyone else that was in the game, haha how can you even post up all these letters and somehow think you have done what was right? If that is what your doing...I dont know, but thats what it sounds like. And I dont mean to rant but Im sure Im not alone when I say this concerns me as someone looking to get Live, yet know nothing about it. Im pritty sure last time I checked Im not in the minority group here...about 85-90% of people who are playing your game dont know anything about Live ether, not to burst any big bubble or anything. Do you not for-see this problem only getting worse as more and more new people get on Live?
Im not saying dont ban people you know are cheating, (do it, serves them right if there the ones breaking the rules) Im saying it sounds like some of these people dont know what to do when they enter a game where there is cheating or dont know when someone else is cheating and there getting blamed for playing "with" these modders. So Im sorry Frankie, but that just really does'nt strike me as being all that funny.
I liked the rest of the report though, looking forward to hearing more about H3s missions, (the real reason for playing Halo anyways)
