[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] maximus_asinus Why is it that almost every game I play in any playlist I run into a General for that playlist or one that has achieved General status in another list? And it usually isn't just one General either. The other night on SWAT (I am a 38) I played a 5 Star General (highest rank you can achieve) and a two other 2 Star Generals. I was the highest ranked person on my team. My highest skill is 42 in Team Slayer. It just doesn't seem right that I am playing these people who obviously have tons more experience than me. I thought Mu/Sigma was designed to find the most optimal match for me, not groups of people that dispatch me with relative ease. It has gotten to the point where 1 out of 3-5 matches I find people that I find play on the same level as me, the rest of the time I'm playing against High Ranked Brigaders and Generals. It is so frustrating that I'm about to give up playing Halo altogether. All I am looking for is an explanation as to why the system seems to cheat me every single game.[/quote] So you are suggesting Generals should just automatically be ranked 50 in every playlist without having to rank up? Hardly seems reasonable. True Skill, as far as Bungie uses it, is per playlist only. Its not designed to give you the most optimal match across all playlists based on your performance on one only.
