guys that good make new accounts all the time....they get bored and want to get another 50 Lol, how long does it take them to get more 50s? if you win every game in doubles it could take like 20-30 games so a few hours, thats without losing 1 game on a new account |

With an awesome guy, it shouldn't be hard? yeah that happens a lot, what happens usually is the booster will get one of their friends who is really good to play on the account there boosting for you and the booster will play on a booster account- if you don't know what a booster account its an account where you the EXP. is extremely negative, it basically tricks bungie into thinking that every time you win its much harder because the boosters account looks really "bad" so they give you more EXP. each time, making it easier to rank up. But yes, a team of two great players could do this, however you do run into other people doing the same thing sometimes so yeah its risk reward situation. |

I'm gonna have to try it. But, would we still have a good shot if I played on my account instead of a second booster? It's more fun that way. |

Depending on your games played- to wins/losses/times you quit out in those games it would make it harder to rank up faster, for example to rank up one time in a team of 4 in a slayer it may take 20 games if you have been on a losing streak, forgot to mention that when you party up with a team of 4 or 2 you get less EXP. each time you win a game, you get more by doing random matchmaking however it is much harder to win random matchmaking. But that is why people create new accounts, how much EXP. do you have? Based on your skill level your somewhere in the Major range and hopefully not a Field Major. |

Commander Grade 2 www.bungie.net/stats/Halo3/CareerStats.aspx?player=SoAd1717read it wrong, thought you said 33. If I were you I would start from scratch with a new account and just use that account as your main account to fart around with and play social, ranked do whatever, but don't make it your 50 account. The account isn't terrible but I'm not loving your stats, your kill to death ratio isn't very good. My suggestion is be patient- the key to halo is 100% strategy...I have beaten a team of 4 generals when me and my friend were the only ones left on our team, the other two quit, basically we camped, grabbed all weapons and played it smart, beat those guys like they were nothing. You need to die less, your more valuable to the team when you die less, get down the strategy first before you worry about getting loads of kills but yes die less and don't rush! |

I think the best part of my game is nades, though. That's my strong point I'd say. |

Forgot, the Battle Rifle is the weapon you must become good with, adjust your sensativity to 1 also, it gives you a quicker reaction time, practice A LOT with the battle rifle and work on your sniping, you will get better. |

Yeah, I have gotten slightly better than sniping. When my friend came over (it was social, so not as impressive), I sniped someone out of a moving warthog. I also had a double kill with a snipe shot to win a game 50-49 on Orbital. But, most of the time, I get body shots. And, yes, the BR is my favorite weapon. |

You need to learn how to position your grenades so you can one-shot them with a BR, its the most effective way to kill. |

I don't rush as much in lone wolves. This especially works for me in Construct. I wait by gold (either side) and toss a nade while they go up the lift and shoot them once. That's how I got the killing frenzy achievement on Lone Wolves, actually. |

I don't even veto team slayer when it's on those maps (veto anything but BRs for any other map). |
