I really feel like the ranking system in this game is broken. My K/D is a 1.01, and my win % is around 51%. I’ve been put into Diamond in Team Slayer the past couple of seasons, and I proceed to get destroyed by everyone I play. I’ve loved Halo since Halo: CE. The movement mechanics and maps in this game add a ton of variety and should allow for fun, addictive gameplay.
With all of that being said, I was just wondering why they can’t make skill ranking more accurate to a player’s skill. I should be a low Platinum player at the very best, and after 10 placement matches where I get outmatched by almost everyone, I get ranked too high. That ruins the rest of the season for me.
Please address the rankings, or at the very least add a permanent Social Slayer Playlist. Sometimes Social Slayer (or some other variety) gets added for a week, and then it’s gone. I’d love to play social slayer. The skill gap in this game is high and I don’t have time to be anything more than a casual player.
I’d like to keep playing Halo. My buddy and I used to love hopping online and catching up over a few good games. For the past several months, the games haven’t been good. We lose more and more, and We’ve been on the bad end of a lot of 50-20 and 50-15 matches lately. Playing in +/- 35 kill games? Clearly there is a skill gap/ranking issue going on here. That’s not going to keep us interested. I’m about ready to just call it quits and hope halo 6 will go back to catering to both competitive and casual players.
