i can't access the freakin site cuz i'm at school j/w if some one could tell me the jist of what it says plz and if you will keep your rank when h3 actually comes out cuz one of my friends is already a 30

closedxxx6940d ago

I like the ranking system in Rainbox Six: Vegas, but I don't understand why HALO 3 also has the number value displayed next to each player's rank. I feel like this number value actually causes people to obsess over their experience and makes them more likely to find an illegitimate way to increase that number. A standard military rank structure is cool, but we don't seed to see what number someone is. I t just seems like bragging rights, and there's already enough sh*t talking in online gaming as it is.

grifter0246940d ago

Really, I would like the Battlefield ranking system, sorry havent played Rainbow. But like you said a lot of sh1t talking already, espically in halo 2...

shotty6940d ago

Im around RP 110 I believe, haven't checked the actual RP in a while but its leutenant

closedxxx6940d ago

See what I'm saying... Nobody is looking at the overall rank, they just look at the easy to read number. And in everyone's mind, the highest number = the best player in the room

Skizelli6940d ago (Edited 6940d ago )

Halo brings out the worst in people. I already see players taking the beta all seriously. Just yesterday I was playing a Territories match on High Ground and the opposing team, as good as their teamwork was, would spawn camp like pros. Our team was totally incapable of capturing the first territory (and they had our sniper rifle). And on our last offense round, with no chance of winning, they did the same thing. I guess this kind of play boosts the egos of players like that. Some will call it fair, but it's plain dirty tactics. High Grounds is a poor map. It's easy to spawn kill, everybody camps around indoors, easy to nab the flag on 1 Flag, Territories blows on it. It should've extended back further into the mountain.

That's Microsoft's gaming division for you...kill off developers making new ip while trying to capitalize off some long lost glory that has no hope of ever being what it once was thanks to recent decision making favoring unrealistic profit goals and greed. What a joke.

Reaper22_205d ago

So much bitterness. Why be upset over something like this. Just don't buy it and stick with what you prefer.

Tacoboto205d ago

Complaining about Microsoft is the only thing people comment here for anymore.

This website is practically dead without it

Mmmkay205d ago

I remember when you guys constantly complained about Sony remaking and remastering games. Guess it is cool now. As usual.

thesoftware730205d ago

Give it rest medman..., take a deep breath and try to not sound so invested in something no one is forcing you to read, buy, or play.

"Console war"is over, Sony won, be happy.

medman200d ago (Edited 200d ago )

@thesoftware730
I'm invested in people losing their jobs and their livelihoods while Microsoft execs tout record profits for their gaming division. Not sure why you wouldn't be invested. Could be you one day. Good luck.

Travesty205d ago

So what’s their solution to having multiplayer? Wait until Halo 7?
That was one of the most memorable parts of Halo..

monkey602205d ago

I'm not sure spending the heavy investment in time to recreate the multiplayer here is the answer either though.
Remaking the campaigns is a great idea to bring the new players up to speed. But if the multiplayer is included in each it'll just fracture the player base of each release.
I think it might be better to turn these campaigns out quicker and have 1 multiplayer game to keep everyone in one place

Travesty205d ago

Maybe having an Halo Online and just release the Combat Evolve maps. And when Halo 2 releases have those maps release. I don’t know but I would like to play a newer version of Halo multiplayer. I know times have changed, and Fortnite is all younger kids really play. But back then it was Halo and you connecting 6 Xbox’s together lol.

jjb1981205d ago

I agree. I think that'll segment the playerbase and once 7 comes out, players might realize it sucks and go back to the older games. Especially if 7 is live-servixe, they'll be shooting themselves in the foot on the one good leg they have to stand on.

crazyCoconuts205d ago

Kinda surprised they didn't just port MCC.
Maybe more $ to by made with separate remasters

Inverno205d ago

Wouldn't have that problem if it were MCC being released. Gotta wait for 7 to be disappointed with MP all over again cause if they half baked Infinite what makes people think they won't half bake the next game? MP works in past HALO games not cause of nostalgia but because it's MP that isn't concerned with the endless service approach.

JEECE205d ago

There is so much cognitive dissonance over Infinite. People say they didn't like it because it was a live service. Yet if you look at what the criticisms of it were at the time it came out and when the playerbase started falling off, the primary issue people had was a lack of updates. In other words, it wasn't enough of a live service.

Which is really an encapsulation of the problem with multiplayer today. So many people think that they want to go back to the "good old days" of mid-2000s multiplayer (The first few Halos, Socom, the first few Battlefields, CS 1.6, etc), but in reality if a multiplayer game like that came out today, people would whine about the lack of content within a month of launch and go back to a live service with a grindy progression system.

isarai205d ago

Why not just port the MCC? 🤔 That was the easiest layup ever and you completely missed it

franwex205d ago

30% profit margins! People will pay $70+ for remakes!

Software_Lover205d ago

I thought the same thing, then I realized that they wouldn't include the remakes in that edition. We may get a different version of Halo MCC in the future with all of the remakes included. I just want them to include Halo 5 at some point for PC.

TheColbertinator205d ago

Can they remake Reach too with the multiplayer?

Knightofelemia205d ago

I wonder if Microsoft will port Reach over to Playstation I quite enjoyed that game. I played Halo 3 and it was not bad I have Halo 2 on the OG Xbox I just need some cables to hook up to my tv to play it.

Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.

Kaii867d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies867d ago

Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
