    So I just played against this guy:

    http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/default.aspx?player=Crow3112

    Almost 14 days total MP playtime, 21.000 MP kills, three Onyx MP commendations and fucking Inclement Weather:

    Screenshot.ashx?fid=8282985&size=medium

    It really doesn't look like he's cheated either.

    Games been out for 10 weeks, so that means he would have had to hit the weekly cR cap every week, and bought nothing else from the armory. By looking at the screenshot, it looks like all the default armor. I could see it.

    That's clearly not default armor in the gameplay screenshot. Looks like he's got grenadier knees, Collar/Breacher chest, and the CQC UA/HUL helmet.

    Then there is no way he could have gotten Inclement Weather already. 10 weeks x 200k is 2 mil, which is the cost of the armour effect.

    He could have gotten an early version of the game. But he's not that good his K/D is .75. Which isn't everything, but once you play that much you should probably be better.

    Um, since its only been 6 weeks, 5 days from launch that would mean that the weekly credit cap is not 200k. However, if the daily limit is 60k, and we know it exists because a few of us here have hit it, then it would have taken around 34 days or so to get to. It actually makes no sense to have a daily and a weekly limit.

    edit: [strike]also, those are the gungir knees. those are 25k[/strike], breacher is 4k and the CQC one is 1,500cR So, while they have spent cR on other stuff, its a drop in the bucket compared to the 2mil needed for IW

    Also, thats a chick, so stop saying 'he'

    Those are also default kneepads, and UA/HUL is only, what 400cR?

    wiki says 1,500cR

    eidt: assuming that she got IW legitimately, she's going to immediately jump to at least General when the level cap gets raised on Monday

    Yea, there is a threshold for the automatic banhammer.... however it would be easy to spot the cheating if a person was checking his account. I imagine that the first few people to buy that item will be subject to a human scan of their account.

    I worked an 11 hour shift, I won't be on for Halo until this evening. I need to crank out as many challenges as I can. I'm thinking multi-team objectives for the assists, but 20 games before my shift starts just doesn't seem doable.

    Corvette? It's not like gruntpocalypse is tough. If it's a non Corvette map, just pick sprint and run to their spawns.

    Had a great moment today. In a lobby, some guy on the other team called out "How does it feel like to know you're gonna lose, Willeth?" I laughed. "I'm glad you find it funny," he said.

    We beat them pretty soundly.

    "How does it feel to lose?" I asked. "Touché, sir," he replied.

    Did Bungie release another one of those charts that shows what percentage of people are what rank? Because it seems like more and more people are Lt. Colonel now. I just played a matchmaking game where there was only one person who wasn't a Lt. Colonel.
