Why should Halo become more competitive?

From what I’ve seen playing Halo for many years is that most people could care less about winning or losing. They just want to run around, die a lot, blow up teammate’s vehicles, etc. I’d say a majority of the game’s community would consider themselves a casual gamer like myself.

Most of the time I play to win. I never go into matchmaking by myself because of joinin progress. Winning defines the player. We need a ranking system visible in game.

We’re in the same community, right? Cause I’ve seen the opposite from you.

I think the Halo community should shut up with this Competitive and Casual BS and help each other to make a game that everybody loves. Instead of attacking certain groups of the community, like they’re doing now.

“Where’s the incentive to win, when i’m going to rank up regardless of win or loss?”

This is what Halo:Reach created and this is what Halo 4 has become.

Competitive.

Agreed i want a challenge not some my little pony thing and even if i did id jump into CoD.

Cause E-sports is growing quickly in North America. Anyone who doesn’t jump in simply doesn’t like money, or has a different idea for their pvp multi player.

All i want is system where i vs players around my skill level with even starts in intense matches and winning is an accomplishment not just stomping noobs for 10 minutes for exp and they get as much exp as you even if they go negative 20. I also want playlists we’re you can mess around and it won’t affect your your stats at all.

343 it’s really simple Ranked and Social everyone’s happy
Someone at 343 is lacking common sense

Not just North America!

I couldn’t care less for winning, I just play for the fun of it.

This is where I can agree that Halo 3 did perfectly, they had ranked playlists, and social playlists. Nothing more to say than that once skill ranking gets put into Halo 4 they should go with what H3 did for playlists. Matchmaking (what maps and gametypes you get) in H3 is terrible, almost ruins the game.

I used to care about the competitive stuff, but I don’t anymore. I don’t like being super involved in games either, and competitive games are demanding to have a good time.

I like to play games to have fun and not get mad, which is what always happens when I play competitive (regardless of doing well or not).

True, but I only prefer to comment on things I’ve experienced, and I live in North America.

Sounds like we have been playing different games all together.

I like to kill a lot and I like to win. Does that make me a competitive player? I think it does, though I normally don’t think of myself that way. I try my best but I’m not the best and it irritates me if I don’t win.

Filthy casuals.

In past Halos, you can have fair games and you could have crazy, “blow-stuff-up” games.

Why ignore one for the other now?

Stop this. A casual player’s money and opinion are equal to yours. By being hard core or competitive you do not get to throw their opinion to the ground.

Halo needs to focus more on competitive play. You can play a competitive game casually but you cant play a casual game competitively. At least that is my opinion on the matter.
