If you haven't played in awhile you're going to find your rank reset. It happened after they added some of the map packs.

I think if you care about campaign you should get Halo 3, if not just ODST.

Yes they did.

It still shows the previous rank you achieved, but it started you back from square one.

...

If you don't know where it's located why are you even questioning me?

If you had played Halo 3 for any length of time you would know that they decided to add individual ranks to each playlist, instead of having your OVERALL rank apply to every single one. This made the system much more fair, but it also reset everything.

Moral of the story: Don't question somebody if you have absolutely no idea what they're talking about to begin with.

It's funny how when one knows they're wrong they must grasp at any straw possible in order to save face.

So you don't call resetting your playlist skills and your current rank anything? While resetting the skills was fair, erasing your current RANK wasn't.

Why are you arguing with me, then, when you could have said: "I believe airshocker meant to say is that they reset your current rank only and added separate ranks for playlists."

What's with the attitude you people have to display when you could have simply just elaborated on what I said already?

and then it could be brought back to why did you argue with me? this isnt one sided chief and before you say "i didnt say anything/argue" "It's funny how when one knows they're wrong they must grasp at any straw possible in order to save face." quoted from a previous post of yours

That's what started this.

Don't presume to know what I'm going to say to you, slick. I argued because you gave me an attitude, and then when I tried to explain what I said, you persisted in being rude. I just gave you a shot of your own medicine. Isn't very fun, eh?

You were wrong from the get go. If you had simply thought about what I said, or politely asked for me to elaborate, this could have been avoided.

/end argument/

how exactly was i wrong? resetting ranks is a little different from putting in new ones. No ones rank was reset, everyone stayed the same overall rank, they just added ranks for each individual playlist. So tell me, where was any rank reset if it didnt exist in the first place?

hahaha slick, nice. and what made you think 'giving me a shot of my own medicine' (didnt even realise you did, or even know what my own medicine is) was going to offend me or slow me down?

I'm backing ChaosCougar on this one. There's a big difference between "reset" and what actually happened. I was a level 30 something Captain in team doubles. after Bungie did the rank system "revamp", I was STILL a level 30 something Captain, it's just that the TrueSkill rank (the numerical) and the military exp related rank (Captain) were seperate, were as before if I had dipped below 30, I would have been demoted to Lieutenant or something.

oh, and on topic. TC, your online ranks and armor kit setup all transfer over, since the online for Halo 3 and ODST is the same (aside from the fact that ODST comes with all map packs unlocked).

Back on topic: If you want to complete the Halo 3 campign again, you'll need the halo 3 disc, the multiplayer on halo 3 is more or les worthless if you have ODST since that disc has all the map packs and 3 maps which are going to be released in a couple of weeks? not sure but they are coming out soon as DLC

All your stats will transfer, and buy ODST. I bought ODST for the complete Halo 3 multi, enjoyed campaign and firefight for about a week, then went back to the MP. Borrowed Halo 3 and enjoyed that, but doesnt have full multi maps like ODST.
