LagSwitching for commendations towards Achilles?

  • I’d Like to state that I’m not accusing the Company or anyone for Lag switching / Dossing other gamers, Im simply stating that after I heard them, It made me raise my eye brows wondering & saying to myself, Ive Seen this to many times in other games. - That and Im not bashing on Halo 5 or 343 OR any games / gaming company out there. - **The other night :**So the Other Night I was in a party with a couple of friends playing some Halo, While I was in the party will watching netflix.
    Members of 3 Spartan Companies were in the Party, ( of 12 ) the party lasted for about 2 hrs before people starting leaving, quiting or whatever, while it was dying down, a member of the Spartan Company,

<mark>REDACTED BY MONITOR</mark>stated that,
" they have been on a winning streak for awhile now. "
Another guy said,
only because we have been using a Lag Switch & dossing who ever we fight out the match to make it easier for us to win and Farm kills
When they were asked what company they were in they said Said Whiskey, Were the number one Spartan Company on Halo & will be the first to get the Achilles armor set.
My friend laughed and said thats pretty cheap, you have to cheat to get to the top, They laughed responding with, Its easier & it goes undetected, especially with 343 because they don’t pay attention to the Fan base on Waypoint.
After that, they continued bragging & Me and my friends just left.

  • How many of you have been in a WarZone match where the opposing team is a party, " WELL COORDINATED " & is ignoring the main objective to the game.( yes camping is a strategy, I do when I have a sniper, or when Holding the fort & occasionally to take down a boss who I know when and where his spawn location is at. ) but to prolong mercy just to get kill commendations just for a set of armor where I’m pretty sure 343 will make other versions of it like the Hellioskrill armor set. . . Its pretty pathetic.

  • **My entitled Opinion :**To me, Im against Lag Switching, Dossing, cheating or whatever breaks the game. Its pathetic & ruins the point of playing games.
    Ive seen this happen in Destiny so many times, Along with Halo 4 & Halo Reach on the 360, People really cheat to get armor or to complete commendations.
    It happens in a a lot of games.
    There is a difference between being good & cheating to be good. Now Ive faced people who were really good at the game, To point were I even said, " I call hacks ", But no, they actually know there way around the maps, they know tips and tricks which is pretty cool, people can learn from them, But when facing a cheater, Its completely different, How so? Well :

  • Everyone notices, One or two people or whoever is taking part in cheat will have a vast amount of kills in a matter of seconds after the match starts, You everyone unloads clips upon clips on to them & they don’t die or take damage. Opposing to someone who is actually good, You can deal damage to them, that and the game is smooth, not lagging or people quiting in groups of numbers. - If your really good, Your K / D will be above average. If you cheating, lagswitching or whatever, Your k/d would be perfect, to good even for a MLG player to have.A lot of are going to say " get gud " or learn to play or whatever & I don’t care for what you have to say, Its the fact that Halo is now full of Cheaters, try hards & kids who finally grew a pair to learn to talk back.
    I mainly get on xbox just for netflix or to try and finish the story to a game, I don’t really play multiplayer because the gaming industry seems to focus more on making money than fixing issues with its game.

  • What are your thoughts on this? Ive read so many forums saying that this New Achilles armor set is ruining Halo or Farm killing is worse in Halo 5 than any other game to date.
    Each one has been filled with negative comments. But they deny that this Achilles armor set, Which literally everyone will have as a standard armor set, Like Clone armor for a Spartan company, It really is breaking the game, 343 has stated that Halo 5 will return to its competitive roots while maintaining a casual experience, NOWHERE is there a casual experience in Halo 5 or any game that makes an exclusive item to get that requires time and effort. Its breaks game, The company who makes the game doesnt even notice because there to focused on making more things to sell and get money.
    Halo 3, Halo ODST and Halo 4 Reach were games that actually had a point to play and earn the in game armor. Now Halo, ( Halo 5 ) its full of Micro-Transactions / Pay to win.
    You can really see 343 focused more on the Multiplayer experience rather than the Campaign experience.

  • Will they change? Hopefully. If not, They’re best bet is to do us a favor & kill off Master Chief.
    Let me know what you think.

First of all, noones* using a lag switch, and if they are it’s not going to help them win anyway.
Second I do agree that Halo 5 needs a casual mode for players that don’t want to verse better players/ started playing during Reach, like you for example.
Maybe a firefight-like Warzone PVE for those players that don’t want to vs players that are better than them?

*except for this one guy you spoke to that probably doesn’t actually exist
