Jeez I hope they don't slow the fire rate down because of a bunch of whiner's who can't use a weapon without a spread. What a travesty.

That's your opinion, it doesn't have to be his.

Stop please. making your own point doesn't necessarily entail criticizing other folks, present your counter point in a matter that you'd want to be spoken to. Edit: It doesn't demand criticizing other folks at all, nor their ideas. Present good, logical counter arguments.

Try re downloading it, I did that, worked no problem

Wrong website lol. That is a question that we'd all like an answer too. They didn't play these silly crap games in H2, H3, or even "gags a little" Reach but had the lists up and ready to go, the main ones anyway, that way they could concentrate on DLC's and very minute tweaks, not play these kiddy BS games with the players.

Just a repost but it would take care of things nicely: Regarding Ranked/Social lists Just do it like H3 did. have seperate ranked and social lists, someone mentioned coding, the templates are already in place, just needs to be integrated into the system so some minor coding yes. yes there are boosters and derankers .... aka BKs ..... simple solution for derankers is to simply not allow it, once you have it you're stuck with it. It would be nice to have an option to report folks for deranking ..... who knows ..... that would make sense so I'd say don't look for it lol. Personally I liked running solo in ranked play lists, the team mates tended to be more motivated to use calls, even if it was only MY X lol. I did that for a long time myself until I learned the proper calls, and they were motivated to win. Obviously I have no issue with social players and that's why I enjoyed the different social/ranked play lists. I think I was a colonel in social social slayer. Good times. Didn't care if I won but did quite a bit. I enjoyed the way you could approach the game with a different mentality. Tryhard mode, go ranked, who cares mode, go social. Met tons of players I still run with to this day in social slayer. At the end of the day, IMO, both ranked and social lists have their place and yes, it's decidedly healthier for the game to NOT try and mix the two, keep them separate. Peace, BaD

Thanx folks but please go to Waypoint and vote!! Don't know if it will do any good but at least it's on the proper forums then.

lol not this one unless you're California or out of country host.

Good post Cortar

lol and that's why I use firepower. DMR for mid to long, BR for short to mid.

Thank you for your service.

I really don't like it when you have players that roll into games, be it spartan ops or MM, get 3 kills and then go AFK for the rest of the game and leave it up to the rest of us to get things sorted out but neither is there a way to report it accurately. What this allows is them to get a SR 130, albeit over a longer stretch of time than those of us actually participating .... That's not right. Part of the problem is that win or lose, you still get XP. I've thought it out and while I think the XP way of doing things sux altogether as that is what promotes this kind of behavior, I don't think you should not let the players on the losing end of things have any XP, I believe that to be a bit too severe. What I would certainly like to see is a much improved way of reporting things. Currently I report them under "cheating" which is defined as using methods to influence the outcome of the game. Too much grey area there. Why not simply add a tab in the report menu listing boosting or afk? It seems like that would handle this issue nicely. Here's the link at Waypoint. https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2062482_XP-Boosting.aspx#post2062482

I know about the mantis thing, it's a glitch on the reloading cycle. If you time it right there's no break in it at all. Aimbot? I know they're out there but film or it didn't happen. The rest of it sounds like you picked up on games that were extremely hosty although the double sticky thing could have been overshield I guess. It really would be better if you could provide some film to go with this. Go into a lobby and someone with a Zimbabwe connection has host and it's not gonna be a fun game.

I stream myself although I haven't in a couple of weeks, http://www.twitch.tv/bad_intentzs, we oughtta hook up sometime. I'm not as good as you, just a 1.04 or something but I'd enjoy running with a competent team mate. I'll hit you up with a FR, GT will be the same as here. crap, need to change that. grrr.

Just do it like H3 did. have seperate ranked and social lists, someone mentioned coding, no, the templates are already in place, just needs to be integrated into the system so some minor coding yes, prolly less than 15 minutes worth. yes there are boosters and derankers .... aka BKs ..... simple solution for derankers is to simply not allow it, once you have it you're stuck with it.

and that post would go into the auto ignore pile with the way it's worded. I agree with you by the way.

It needs to be tweaked a bit IMO

Of course, this is what they do ....

no call for that ....

yeah, they say they're trying the backdoor skill system now but that ends up putting players who just wanna have fun with players like myself who are decidedly more competitive. So aggravating. They need to get the separate social and ranked playlists rolling again.

Yeah, don't really care for being Binary sniped cross map when my option is the shotgun lol.

do a dmr BR battle with me one time lol. You'lll find out.

Quit giving 343 excuses. Several of the staff have been around since CE release and the net working is unconscionable.

Got to say I like the post. Well thought and well written. Not entirely on mark but good stuff. I'm going with like %99 agreement.
