If i see my friends in a custom game, or If I have enough ppl to join my game, then I would much rather play a custom game. But i can't find a good custom game every time i play Halo, so i play some matchmaking.
Colonel, Skill 40 for the moment. Though the game will occaisionally think i'm a Commander grade 2, only takes a quick refreash to fix that though.
I am in the same boat. I need the wings. When the game first came out, I played a ton and was a major but had a horrible KD spread because I was playing with my brother who is almost a 50 and so I would get owned by brigs and generals. I took a break, and when I took it back up, I was determined to get 40 which I did as I improved. I then played social and got to grade 2 which made me feel like a novice so I have been working to get brigadier playing a ton of team doubs. I am now a 41 and win like 5 in a row but won't go up and then lose one and drop because I have played a lot. I also find it comical how everyone complains about teammates (me included). I started a monthly for kicks because I couldn't level up and got a 45 with ease just from having such a good win percentage but it went away after a month, so I now just have to get my yearly to 45. If anyone wants to play team doubles or slayer, I need some quality teammates to hang and even carry me sometimes. I can't do lone wolves because I can't do the run-in-get-a-kill-then-die playing style. I am strategic but once I get my wings, I am stopping.
captain grade 2. and my high skill is 27 (team doubles), but whenever i play now, i never win. kinda sucks. but i'm still good, my ranks just not that high. my friends are like 35 and the like but i'm just as good as them, so i dont really care if its low. the positive side being when i play with my higher level friends, we get stuck with low level noobs and we destroy them hehehe
I'm a level 41 Colonel. The only ranked game i really play is Lone Wolves, and i didn't have too much trouble getting to 40, but after that i kept losing as much as i won, so i've pretty much stopped trying to get my rank up. I play lots of social with my friends though, i do pretty good at that, and BTB is my favorite thing to play.
I'm a captain. That's the one with those two cards with diamonds in it right? Anyways, I don't really play matchmaking that much. I like to play customs a lot more, since i'm mediocre in halo (lvl 27...and having a hard time lvling up)
yeah i do die a lot--on certain games. like whenever i play hardcore, tactical, or land grab (ugg) i die more than i'd like to. but like when im playing team slayer with my buds, i'm pretty good. lone wolves=eh. doubles=ok sometimes, bad other times. objective=ok. slayer=good. BTB=hmmm.... HC/LG/Tact=not very good at all
Im a Grade two Colonel, level 41, so close to brigadier, also have the experience for General...but alas, cant seem to get over 41....*sigh*
I haven't played MM in SO long that i kinda forgot. :squirrel_wtf: It's the one that has a blue rectangle with a bar under it. ~mackmack5
