In Response To: Re: Hitting 5000 - How will they hold you for Reac (sharpsniper99)


: That would just help the derankers! but that system would stop serial
: quitting.

: I wish I had the time to put as much thaught into my post as you did yours,
: and well done on the 5K experiance, but I have to say your missing out on
: a lot by not going for 50, and I feel you havent experianced the ranking
: system enough to appreciate the Skill system.

: I personally had a LOT of fun going for my 45 and then my 50 when i improved
: enough as a player, and thats why im pretty dissapointed by the idea that
: Reach will follow a more Gears/ COD system, but I agree that the Halo
: system is probably too hard for the majority of people and that the exp
: based system is more rewarding for people who arent gonna aim for the
: highest skill.

: So ideally annother skill based system would be perfect for me for Reach, but
: for the sake of discussion a system like the one Zane mentioned would be
: awesome, I really like the callsign system in call of duty and how doing
: certain challenges unlocks certain symbols, i dont like the exp system so
: much though its a bit too simplistic and makes the game a lot more
: personal, in halo you have to work as a team, in cod it doesnt really
: matter what happens to your team.

: But yeah Ranking should just be linked with asthetic changes, it shouldnt
: change the game, in that i mean you shouldnt unlock weapons and power ups
: etc.

: FyreWulff turtling at level 10 in snipers? That seems too low for the
: tactical sort of turtling I would expect, even at like level 45 - 50
: snipers people dont really camp, hmm.

Like I said, I could go for a 50. I was well on the way in SWAT. But getting hostbooted five games in a row, and dropping from a 39 to a 34 pretty much put me off playing ranked for a long time. I understand and know how the rank system works, and like it - it's just not worth the frustration from all the jerks in low-population playlists.

The current state of the game is still leagues ahead of Halo 2 - playing anything outside of Team Training was futile due to rampant modding.
