reply to people all over twitter and the forums when it is a positive remark.
seems to me that they are ignoring all the people that are being unjustly banned.
who cares if people are idling in game or leveling faster than others. If they are boosting then they are not going to have the skill that i have for actually working towards my levels. Banning should be left up to people not an automated system that is obviously flawed.

Stop ignoring the fact that you have 43 pages of banned forum posts that people are complaining that they are banned.

Also stop promoting boosting with your impossible daily challenges. I have looked up a lot of peoples games that got them banned and most of them were trying to complete the 18 regicides in one game and the 4 kill streak rewards in one game. you have instant re spawns where people literally spawn right next to the person that killed them and they are supposed to get 4 kill streaks?

So they boost to get one daily challenge worth 1400 xp and you ban them for 48 hours. yet i have been subject to aiming bots multiple times and they are not being bans. Its kinda sad when your banning the kid who stole a pack of gum and, but the kid who stole the car gets a slap on the wrist.

I have played every Halo game and never been banned before now I play Halo 4 and I get banned twice. If you have a banning system you should probably let players know up front what they could get banned for and not hide it in the forums. stop banning people this is a game that we pay you money for. I recently got the helmet for having xbox live for ten years and this is the first game I have ever been banned on. Im sorry 343 but you have lost a customer. Unless this game is fixed I will no longer be buying halo games and will make sure that as many other people do not as well. It takes years to get a customer but only seconds to lose one.

That killing spree challenge was pretty easy lol

Not sure what I hate more.
Bungie, and how they acted like they didn’t exist after hearing how bad their game was.
Or 343, completely ignoring the majority of Halo fans which hate the game, and then falling all over the people that are stupid enough to call this the best Halo yet.

The regicide challenge was pretty dumb, I haven’t got it - but I don’t like regicide, but the killing spree one was easy - all it took was Capture the Flag, and playing defensively.
I’m pretty sure the people who dislike the game are just a very vocal minority…

I like how this thread is already moved back to page 3.

There is no way that a group of people could monitor all the games people are playing 24 hrs a day. Obviously flawed? You said you boosted twice and got caught for it, seems to be working fine.

> Stop ignoring the fact that you have 43 pages of banned forum posts that people are complaining that they are banned.

Not every single post in there is someone complaining about being unfairly banned. Many are replies and others helping people to understand why they got banned in the first place. They even say in the the ban thread that they don’t have time to look over and review every single instance of people getting banned.

> Also stop promoting boosting with your impossible daily challenges.

If they are so impossible, just don’t try and get them. I’ll agree some of them have been pretty difficult, but they’re aren’t worth that much exp. It’s not like you’re losing out by not getting them. Just skip em. They try to make challenges for all kinds of people. Some people like easy ones that they can get in a game or two, others like ones that require a lot of skill. You’re not the only one who paid $ for the game.

You’ve run into multiple people using aim bot? Would you be so kind as to upload one to your file share so as to have proof? I would hope you could cause it would be quite embarrassing if you ranted about others cheating without actually having anything to back it up.

The helmet was to celebrate xbox being around for 10 yrs. My friends and I all received it and none of us have had it for 10 years.

One last thing I might add, just play the game to have fun. Ranking up is like watching the clock. The more you pay attention to it, the longer is seems to take. I’ve been having fun doing all the MP and Spartan Ops games and have been surprised to see that I’ve ranked up as much as I have. Just have fun with it, and before you know it, you’ll be SR-130 and you can show all your friends how awesome of a person you are for having attained such a title.

Please, half the people who say they have been banned for no reason have boosted and are playing innocent.

I dont need to go find one of my games on file share. This guy is putting for download. The problem is in SWAT youtube HALO4 swat aimbot tons of videos pop up and they are being used. That was not my point anyway I can list endless numbers of people that are affecting gameplay that should be banned such as the oddball players that jump in the wall on complex and the flood players that are jumping out of the map. However people that are a bit OCD and just want the daily challenges are the ones getting banned instead. This is my point that the Banhammer is banning the little man and not the guy that is actually cheating all the time. I have gone through the entire thread of bans and Its not like I am lying and saying I did not get banned legit. I am saying they need to fix the system because it is -Yoink!- people off. Most other games leave banning up to people that is the reason for the reporting system so that you can bring it to the devs attention. It is letting the community decide who gets banned rather than a bot that see that I go smoke and miss a match or two and get banned instead of kicking me from my party. I should not have to worry about being in game or not if I want to step away from the TV for a bit.

> The problem is in SWAT youtube HALO4 swat aimbot tons of videos pop up and they are being used.

I searched in youtube. In the first 30 videos I looked at, there was only one video of someone claiming to have proof that he caught someone using aim bot, but it appears to have been captured in theater mode, and we all know theater mode has problems recording the exact movements of other players.

Again, I would ask you to provide some proof of these multiple players that you’ve come across. Right now it looks like you are over-exaggerating in order to make people believe your point. If you have to over-exaggerate in order to convince people of your point, you don’t have a very solid case. Please back up your claims with solid evidence. One video isn’t going to convince very many people that there is a huge problem. If there really is a huge problem, you should have no trouble finding videos of it.

> That was not my point anyway I can list endless numbers of people that are affecting gameplay that should be banned such as the oddball players that jump in the wall on complex and the flood players that are jumping out of the map.

These problems will be fixed in time. No game is perfect at launch.

> I go smoke and miss a match or two and get banned instead of kicking me from my party. I should not have to worry about being in game or not if I want to step away from the TV for a bit.

Are you serious? You think you should be able to walk away from games whenever you want, leave your team with a player that is not only not helping the team, but aiding the other team in getting more kills? If you’re going to go take a smoke, just exit to the main menu. It’s really not that difficult.

Lastly, you seem to mostly be complaining for two groups of people. The ones who are cheating and using mods to effect game play, and people who have done nothing wrong but are still getting banned.

There will always be people modding their xbox and trolling others. Save the video and report them. If they are getting reported multiple times, they won’t be around for too long.

As for the people getting banned for no reason. The reason the ban hammer is in place is to stop people from boosting. If people didn’t boost, then there would be no reason for the ban hammer and in turn, there wouldn’t be any accidental bans for people playing a legit game. So you don’t really have a right to complain about people who are not boosting getting banned, when you are the reason there is a ban system.

Its our opinion jack -Yoink- and saying the majority of the fans hate the game is stupid there’s alot more people playing the game and enjoying it than people coming on these forums to complain and it happens every halo game some people are already saying halo reach was better
