Incorrect, of the 8 games I played I placed 2nd-4th place 6 times, 5th one and 6th on one, out of 8, with the team I was on winning all except for the one I placed 6th in. So that isn't too bad, especially since I've not played Halo in years.
That has nothing to do with Halo PvP being a broken piece of crap, as ever.
Getting anything less than first in Halo is pretty easy. The game is so balanced that anyone can play it and be at least above average; that's the reason it's MP has a fanbase as large as it is (imo, because Halo MP bores me).

Shooting someone 3 times; getting the hit makers and punching them, only to have them turn around and punch you once to death isn't balanced. The mechanics of PvP are all ****ed; they've always been.
Similar maps, layout and screaming retarded children as before making it boring/annoying is an entirely different issue, of which Halo PvP suffers severely from.
If you have full shields and someone kills you in one hit with a melee attack, that sounds like a latency issue. I've put about 40 or so hours into the game and that's never happened to me, and I've been meleed plenty of times.

I'm gonna try it out again solo. It may have had something to do with me playing it at like 5:00am after having played MP for quite a few hours before that. I'll try it first next time.

You don't level up(duh) but your XP doesn't stack like it did on Reach. So basically you will be wasting commendations and challenges that could be used to increase your rank. So I'll be stuck at 70 with no more specializations until 343 decides to stop being douchebags and email me a code to unlock the rest of the specializations. At least in Reach your XP stacked until the cap was lifted. So you didn't really waste anything. This on the other hand...meh. What gives. So what if people boost/have no lives. Its worse to just piss them off by stopping them from leveling. LE owners don't hit the cap because they have early access to the specializations ~_~
