I don't think there should be. People are going to cheat and level up and all that crap that was seen on xbox live!.

I know there won't be stand-bying (unless you can, correct me if I'm wrong) but clans are going to get together, level up, die on purpose, etc.

I don't think it should be put in there, live had shown us the ugliness of it

I would like to think that most PC players are more mature than X-box live players

I...wouldn't put money on that. In my experience, people are even more rude on the PC than on Live.

no matter where you go there's going to be cheaters, racists, swearing young kids, etc. but at least you just see the typing.

and there will be more jerks on halo 2, inconsiderate servers and administrators, etc

Maybe, maybe, if you can choose from "normal" and "ranking" so maybe all of the cheaters will be on ranking and the normal will be safe. Maybe.

I've noticed that too.....in fact...today was just plain horrible in the Halo PC demo....

It'd be interesting to see if even matchmaking makes it into the game, or whether it's just going to be a server list.

  • 08.24.2006 12:42 AM PDT

Thinking of something witty to write here since 2004...

Hope it's a server list and unranked since I just want to have fun and get into a game straight away rather than wait for five minutes before being thrown into a gametype and map that you probably don't like.

  • 08.24.2006 12:58 AM PDT

Who knows? I would like it if there wasn't any ranking.

Server list would be a lo better. I don't like Matchmaking on Xbox Live. It pissed me off too many times.

Players are going to cheat whether there is ranking or not. I would like to give it a try because I would rather play against players equal to my skill level. I hate when I play against Faux-X and Martyr because they are SO much better then me it's no longer fun to play. The reverse is the same if I'm destroying a bunch of new players I feel like I haven't really accomplisjed anything. I would like to see it be optional so if you wanted to find a server that had players around your level you could.

I don't know if a ranking system would be very good. I like that option Igg suggested. But I don't want to see something that disallows you from playing with who you want based on rank. Especially for clan's, since everyone will be a different skill level, you may not be able to even play with the rest of your friends if you are ranked differently.

I don't want to see people so focused on rank that they'll come here and brag about it, calling everyone else a nub or some BS like that. (Nessy anyone?)

I would like to see some kind of ranked matchmaking going on. Maybe all playlists ranked and unranked. So play it for fun, and play it ranked on a server list marked ranked. I dont know. We will just have to wait and see what they release. Good thing they wont be able to cheat, in any way that I know of. Not anything remotely like xbox, with all the mods and standbying and forced host. Whatever.

Halo PC players are more mature than Halo 2 players I think. But there are still jerks in the Halo PC crowd.

no, medals yes, ranks no.


yeah I think medals should stay too.

the only bad thing is that most people can get a lot of medals from enemies being AFK and they have a RL or something.
