No...definately not....this was supposed to give healthy competition between halo gamers. Unfortunately it brought a rain of terror from modders and such. I dont even play ranked anymore, i know tons upon tons of people that either A) Quit halo 2 because of modders, cheaters, the feedback system not doing diddly-squat, etc. B) Dont play ranked because its cheaters territory now. My friend used to be a legit 40, and cheaters brought him down to a 34. No joke they did, say all u want to he was totally legit.
Back on topic....Halo 3 should not include any ranking system what so ever! Cheaters on the xbox 360 are upon us whether we like it or not. It has recently been modded for those of you that dont know, through a hole in the backwards compatibility emulator. There will be cheaters for halo 3. I can say right now as big of a fan of Halo that i am, if there are cheaters in halo 3 and bungie/microsoft dont do anything to help us like they did with halo 2, im selling all my xbox/halo stuff and going ps3/and wii. Im already going nintendo wii:)
So please bungie dont screw it up this time and incorporate a ranking system. Plz dont!
Im also probably one of the few people who dont care if your better than me at halo or not. You can say you are and i will probably believe you :) But that can be solved by a simple one on one game. The ranking system in halo 2 has also failed because of those damned two month free xbox live accounts. So you could have a legit 38 start fresh and own everyone in their path...
