Well, I have been watching your videos, playing customs with really good gens, and watching how a lot of people play in lonewolves, I have followed the majority of your tips, I used to get very angry a lot now I don’t, I haven’t reached 45 yet, but it is safe to say I will reach it eventually, I’m at a 44 I could have ranked up this game by placing first but then I had to face off against you lol.

Before I read your tips and watched your gameplay, with the addition of 2 players my game was off in lonewolves, believe or not I went down as low as 36 cause I was struggling to find a balance between having a good k/d vs being too aggressive, but after your tips and everything else I mentioned, I have jumped back up to 44. Hopefully next time I beat you when I face you lol, and maybe there will be a change to lonewolves when I face you next time.

Wow, Tgeezy, just saw you post this on Bnet. Those guys really need to grow up. I can guarentee that I’m younger than them, yet they still freak out about rippin “sucking” even though that was technically off topic… A few nice people kind of helped you out there though. Haha… you are lucky for playing with him. I wish I could, but the chance of that is very low..

Thanks Rippin, for the tips and the comment, I gotta say this though, out of the films I’ve watched of you and this match I faced you in, you are clutch in the last minute a lot of the time, and that isn’t always easy going against tough competition.

And Wadjet2, ya, I tried to be as neutral as possible over on bnet, but of course people had to bring up other issues, I didn’t mention any of the things they brought up, but people just can’t get over some things I guess.

Well I take back not playing with you, rippin… I’ve been getting insanely lucky lately. In just this week, Ive met t3h goose king and gettin mah goose, and became friends with both Anoj Tactics and you!

However, my gameplay hasn’t been doing so good lately. I started off pretty good for today, getting about 5 of the “ninja” assassinations, but it just got worse. Here are a few of the games I played. They went from this: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=947281554&player=HC%20mongoose

got slightly worse: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=947293321&player=HC%20mongoose

And worse… http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=947303007&player=HC%20mongoose

And epic fail: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=947315899&player=HC%20mongoose

Until then, I at least managed to get 4th place or higher… until this complete failure of a game: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=947325618&player=HC%20mongoose

And then, my last game, it didn’t get me to a 45, but I somehow manged to hang on to 4th place, so despite going negative 6, I didn’t go down. http://www.bungie.net/stats/Halo3/FileShare.aspx?gamertag=HC%20mongoose

Also, if you look at my second link, I got my first ranked kill with a plasma pistol =D

Thanks for reading everybody!

Yeah, so, I figure since I have a video that advertises your site in my fileshare, I figured I might as well register, so here I am Rippin.

Just dropping in to say that I consider myself privlidged to have been on Rippin’s friendlist BEFORE HaloCharts.

I met him in Team Slayer about, what, a year ago?
We were both low ranks (I think in the 20s) and he was in a party with two kids who didn’t have mics, so it was just Rippin and I chatting. We partied up after the game and I asked him why he was partied with two guys who didn’t have mics… “They don’t die much, and they do what I tell them to” was the response. Hahahaha.

Now it’s like, a year later, I have not one but two 50s, and I owe a lot of my in-game sayings (”Get off me, kid!”) and personal drive to improve to playing with Rippin so much back in the day. Ah, the days of multi-team where we’d win with 50… 26 kills to Rippin, 24 to me… I think it might be the other way around nowadays. =P

Always fun running into you in LW and private chatting during the game.

-Kat

My testimonial would be meeting you in a random party. I got a random few games with you, and then my mic broke, sorry. If you are wondering why I left without saying anything. Also, I couldn’t send you a message =(

And now I’m not on your friends list anymore lol. frowny face.

Ok, so I read the FFA tips right when they came out, and I didn’t really think all too much of them, at the time anyways, so I used to play rumble pit matches and get 5th or 4th cause Rumble Pit is brutal nowdays, meaning, you rarely face someone who is under lvl 45, and most of the time they are lvl 47 or higher, I thought there was nothing I could do about beating these guys who were a higher level than me (my highest is lvl 45 in LW), I then started to get very frustrated with the way things were turning out in Rumble pit and i stopped playing FFA altogether for a while, then i decided i’d apply some of the FFA tips, mainly don’t get super anrgy and don’t charge, and wait for your luck to come, this has helped me greatly, I now usually at least get 3rd or 1st (i don’t know why but i have trouble getting 2nd) whenever i follow the FFA tips, with these tips, I have beaten generals, as in lvl 50s, and generals as in they have 600 xp in Rumble pit, and i can at least compete in every match i play in, i will try not to get too frustrated and try to have more fun, also, the one tip that probably has helped me the most is WAIT FOR YOUR LUCK, this is a by-product of not getting frustrated but anyways….. I have been about 9 or 7 behind the leader in many matches and i have come back to get 3rd or 2nd because i start getting double kills cause i have a br and two people are fighting eachother etc. one memorable game, i was 5 off from the leader in 4th with 15, and the leader is no newb, a legit lvl 50, so i get the sniper BR and camp in one of the towers on the Pit, and i have been getting very unlucky the whole match, i’m glad to have at least 15 kills, so i start sniping some people, and i get up to 20, the leader is at 22 at this point, i die, then i respawn and i quickly find the sniper, i get a kill with it, then, the highlight of the match, i see the leader fighting another guy, the leader is winning, about to melee the person to get another kill to get to 23, i fire my sniper at his back, it goes THROUGH him and into the guy he was fighting, so i get a double kill, i die shortly after, now the leader gets two more kills to get to 24, i’m at 23, i get a crappy spawn where nobody(in the corner near where the shotgun spawns on the Pit) is and i’m desperatly looking for someone to kill, i grab the needler and i kill one guy easily, then the guy that guy was fighting comes around the corner and i start shooting at him with the needler and i kill him for a game ending comeback of the ages…also, other people in the match were a few lvl50’s, a few lvl 47’s, and a lvl 46

Hey Rippin,
Your FFA tip have really helped me out. As after reading your tips I went onto halo and joined a lone wolves game (I had never played lone wolves before) and I won and I ranked up and up and up in just a couple of days I was rank 40 all thanks to your advice.

Thanks alot Rippin

So I’m trying to get my 50 in LW, and I face off against you. The first game I wasn’t really doing good.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=1214403774&player=Knightmare1313

Then after a few games I play you again.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=1214477820&player=Knightmare1313

Then I play you again.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=1214497763&player=Knightmare1313

As you can see I lost to you, tied with you and then beat you. I guess I adapted to your playing style without even knowing.

When posting game links there is no need to use the BBC [/url]
just copy the link and post :)….Fixed BTW

Your website inspired me to improve my Halo 3 website. http://www.halo3pictures.wordpress.com/. I haven’t bought the domain year think, but I can’t wait til I do!

BTW rippin would you like to be an author on my site? It’s ok if you don’t

Also reading on your site I have been playing LOADS of Hardcore and FFA. I have manged a 13 in MLG a 45 in SWAT and a 35 in Snipers and I was a 44 in Lonewolves, but not so much now.

Thanks Rippin!

P.S. I don’t know if you remember, but I played with you in Team SWAT when I was a 42. I didn’t get to show my true potential cause I had to put groceries away :/.

Thanks Rippin!

Het Ruppin, i just played you in grifball a couple hours ago with Spyda Munky and you guys completely owned us. I think the match only lasted about 2 minutes. But yeah, even though we got destroyed we still had a good time and now all the matches we play feel dull and boring. But anyway, like the rest of these guys are saying, your FFA tips really help out and hopefully i can transfer them towards Team based games, well see. But yeah good game man and hopefully we’ll face off again.

I think i came to this site when i had just reached a 45 brigadier in lone wolves. I was looking for nothing more than gameplay advice and tips so i could better my skill and achieve higher a ranking. Rippinheads.com provided me just what i needed and since then, i have gone from a 45-to my first ever 50. Thankyou so much for helping me out along the way rippin, you definitly make this site the one of the best if not the best by answering non-stop questions from all of us members here and posting your ffa tips which are 10/10.

Hey Rippin, first off, I’d like to say that I had the privelege to play with you in love wolves about 3 months ago. That was pretty sweet. So, for the past week, I’ve been reading your free for all tips and basically everything on your website. Also, I’ve been on youtube watching and studying how you play. For the past year, I’ve been a 43 and I’ve never been able to get past it on two different accounts. My main problem before was that I was getting mad. I would get so angry and infuriated!! It was just embarassing. So, last night, I turned on the xbox and told myself to just be calm and stick back, play smart. I did all that, played 2 lone wolves games and got my 44. I was so happy man. So, thanks for your tips. I’ve been wanting to rank up forever!!!! I know you have A LOT of people that want to be your friend but If you feel like hittin me up on xbl, my gamertag is Io Jesse oI. Once again, thanks rippinheads for your awesome tips!!!! Congrats on your swat 50 man!! Peace, Jesse

Hey Rippin, I was playing along quite well in this weekends ranked living dead. until, of course, i ended up in a game with you. I was having a great run that day, i had a couple killtastrophes and i was a steady winner. i saw you and i lost my cool. haha i tried to stay next to you for some of the match so i could save the film and prove it had happened. you beat me…needless to say. Good game. Thanks for not stepping on my neck more than you needed to.
