Look forward to reading this, thanks Jester.

Hey Wonder, good to see you on here. Apparently you were not in that game so I see no way to report them unless you have played with them. There will always be those who cheat a game to get ahead, be it for stats or rank. I never personally worry about this kind of cheating figuring the system will catch up with them. It is not always immediate, but usually works. It may be possible, without me doing any research, to assume that all four of them are friends playing together. Think of how boring and childish it is for players running around smashing non players. The joke is on them. There stats mean nothing other than some empty claim of kills or a K/D spread.

This, if it even deserves to exist, needs to be moved to the General Discussion area at the very least and pinned at the very end as the last possible post you can find in that forum.

Not that I do it, but if I did, I would crank up Prodigy's "Fire Starter" and start doing it and doing it and doing it well! P.S. doesn't this belong under the General Discussion thread?

I could not agree more Kurt. One of the keys to the previous games was fighting your way out, not using some gimmicky ability to hide, run, turn to stone (like an ostrich putting his head in the sand until help arrives) or flying away. Gimme back my Chief baby!

Send friend request.

It would be nice.......but I would like it even more if they would just bring Halo 2 back online.

I have heard from legitimate sources that the Halo 3 game will stay up for a long time. Fact is, the Halo 2 game should be brought back. There should always be a choice of playing each game. We have put billions of dollars into each one, especially H2 and H3, and deserve the opportunity to go back and play them. Don't quote me any numbers, I just don't care about that fact. Of course I still believe my first girl friend should let me call her late at night for a "booty call" too! lol!

I have heard of numerous stories of this. It usually will give you the stats back.

I typically just say "Make sure Nancy doesn't get it". She is a female friend who is unbelievably good with it, for that matter, she is just plain good.

Where I truly so seldom "rage", the one I can remember is playing with some butt toucher in Arena Doubles with the gamer tag "I Betray For Snipe" and he lived up to his gamer tag, repeatedly. I dealt with it by giving him a positive rating and ended up playing with him a lot. He would take damage in a fight and I would simply give him a few more shots in the head and finish him off giving the other team the kill. Yeah it was counter productive, but I did it any way.

I still use the Bungie name plate out of respect for the creator of our beloved game. I do like the Marathon one though because it matches a tatoo on my back.

Sounds like something that could end up in a weekend playlist like Griffball used to originally in H3. May not last very long due to the fact this is a FPS game, but hey, who knows.

Good point!

Katham I see what you are talking about and also agree with Jester. Check out my OP in the H4 forum on "The New Infection" and let me know what an avid player thinks of those ideas.

A reply to all. You would have the choice of playing the Elite or the Human. You choose your type and wait for other to fill the lobby. Will apply to the OP. Thanks all!

I agree Decree. I have an OP that eludes to this in this forum. I liked earning my rank through playing and winning. It encourages a player, at least in "ranked", to improve their game and learn all the weapons, not just sit with a shotty or blow out a clip with the neddler! Nice OP.

I like the way you refer to Reach as a "tribute band". That is a nice way to put it. Appreciate the post Braver.

You and I seem to see the game the same way. Obviously I was never a big fan of Reach, but I bought and played and complained. Thanks for the post. Is this the old Decree 117?

I stare a my big toe a lot! It is a really nice big toe too!

A while back eliteultra and I were kicking some ideas around in a forum and his love of Elites brought up a topic idea. Have a slayer variant that is 4 x 4 that pits the Elites against the Humans. Your initial load out would be weapons specific for each species. Humans getting only human weapons for load out and Elites getting only the Covenant weapons. This would put a new twist on slayer and let those who truly love Elites play in a real slayer mode against the Humans, the epic and classic battle! There could be an AA list available for each species that is original to them. Sprint, jetpack, hologram would be for the humans and invisibility, armor lock and evade for the Elites. In addition, you would pre-choose your species, be it Human or Elite and wait for lobby to fill. There are more than enough players who love playing as Elites for this to work. What do you think? If you would like an additional vote question, let me know.

It never got too easy for me, I still work hard to keep a streak going. And still........the music!
