Nice. I'm almost Lt Col finally. One of my friends is Colonel Grade 2 and One is Commander Grade 1. I hope the cap lifts before I get Grade 3 Lt Colonel. I want to be able to go through those ranks without skipping any. I'm not gonna get the Black Visor yet. I'm gonna wait to get the Gold Visor for a first Visor color. Get the most expensive out of the way and because not many ppl have the patience to save so hopefully not a lot of ppl have it when the cap is lifted.

EDIT: I just read that they don't expect it to be early November now =[ It's looking more towards mid November at the current Challenge Rate.

if i had a guess i'd say november 7th.

11/7 - 117 - spartan 117 = master chief. bungie lives for stuff like that
plus it's conveniently 2 days(?) before black ops

Yea, I hope it's soon. November 7th would be ironic if we really got 117 million challenges lol. They are doing a Challenge on monday that just requires 1 matchmade game played. I think they want to give the challenge tally a bit of a boost cause bungie can't wait for the cap lift either it seems lol.

In other news. Bungie Betrayal System is total failure. It's like getting booted gives players Incentive to betray you rather that leave and get banned. I haven't played a single match today or yesterday where I didn't get betrayed on purpose without the option to boot. Today so far 3 matches.
I accidentally yoinked someone on spire because I was already hitting him with a needler >.> Betrayed... Couldn't boot.
Paridiso.. I'm getting all the kills for my team (23/32) and I get betrayed by a crap sniper on our team cause he apparently couldn't hit the elites.. (Replay showed it was intentional)
Next one was a Stick when I was stealing the Spartan sniper on Spire..

Also, the 3 strikes and your out rule is NON-Existent. I got so fed up with getting betrayed in a match yesterday, I went on a betrayal spree in a wraith and got like 10 betrayals. Didn't get booted at all. Getting pwned doesn't make me rage as much as intentional betrayals and then that teammate teabaggin you like they accomplished something..


EDIT: I am confused.. I got an Extermination medal somehow, and I have yet to get an overkill.

^ Who says they didn't have the option? Maybe they forgave you. Often it feels like I'm always getting banned when I betray someone but like 8 out 10 betrayals on me go without a bootscreen >.>

If I accidentally betray someone(Like a douche that stole a tank that I already sent plasma launcher grenades at before I even saw him running to it..) I get booted right away. Same here, no bootscreen on almost every betrayal. When a screen does come up, I'm usually convinced it was an accident on their part. Kind of Ironic.
And about them forgiving me, would you forgive someone that splattered you with the wraith 3-4 times? lol

Lol, not really..Unless he hides it really well. But yeah when ever I do get the bootscreen I forgive because it is a teamgame after all. And usually I can see kinda if it was on purpose or not.

Sometimes I wish it had a Betrayal Stat on your career record..

You ever get betrayed after an enemy breaks your shield just to give them the kill? Hate that shit so much.. Would be hiding letting my shield recharge and a friendly comes behind and punches me. Twice in the same match..

very rarely run into betrayal issues, never been booted for one (the few of mine i've done were all accidental) and i almost always get the option to boot.

but i have had the get your shields broke and then your teammate kills you for a weapon. was in arena for the sniper, i just left. hf with that rating 3v4, bro. :sohappy:

How do you not have Betrayal Issues? Mine is often not even for a weapon I have. If I play more than 5 matches a day, I'm guaranteed to be betrayed in at least one of them on purpose repeatedly.

On the Arena Topic actually, who like what Season 3 is gonna bring? Arena Pro yay or ney? I think I'd get fed up in doubles, but Team might be fun.

I like Pro, but the # of ppl that bitch about playing pro is hilarious.

More on the Betrayal thing. I was double melee by my fire team partner in Invasion today. Right at the star before any elites were near us.. Couldn't Boot. It's definitely Broken.

EDIT: I made a Forum Post with a Suggestion to have a Betrayal Stat/Counter
http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=52308976

I must Brag. I usually don't do this well in Invasion, but lately I've been owning.

I remember the weekly challenge for getting 30 kills. I would totally be able to get it again lol
I would have went 30-0 on invasion Slayer Paridiso, but my friend is the one that killed me 3 times.(Added him after playing with him in that match)

Well they call it "Arena Slayer Pro" so it might have some differences
Camo out will be nice. I got tired of having to resort to it to counter the Enemy in Doubles.

If you liked inception and play Reach.. This is a Must watch for some Epic Luls

Yea I was thinking about getting the Gold Visor...right now I have about 211,000 Credits saved up. I'm still deciding what I wanna spend it on. I think I might be Colonel now too...haven't checked it in a while.

Rank Cap lifted. Still lt col 3 lol. Just got it yesterday though. Right on time.

I think when my Live Expires I won't renew it for this until they do something about betrayals. Everytime I play Invasion without a full pt, I get betrayed if I get ANY of the power weapons. No boot option. Then for the rest of the game they continue to betray so I just leave.. keep getting banned cuz of it. Tried Competitive, same thing. If I manage to get a sword or shotgun, I get betrayed.. Sniper.. betrayed.. I swear im just gonna play to betray ppl from now on. See how the fuck they like it.


This makes me feel better lol

Yea I hate when I hop in the tank on hemm and half my team is shooting me with dmrs and whatnot. It's like...why betray or shoot your teammates for that crap...it's going to spawn again. Just too many little kids playing. But Yea I decided to go with Emile's helmet, I also got Carter's and a new chestpeice. Now I'm saving up for the Jun's shoulderpeice and gold visor.
