It seems like Microsoft and Halo Waypoint put a strong emphasis on community yet when it comes to Halo Wars cheating can happen regularly with no fear of any consequences. We the consumer spent a ton of money on the game and downloadable content and most of us play this game for fun yet a few who ruin it for everyone. If this was another halo game like Halo 3 the companies behind it would step up and do something about it. They would show their loyalty to the paying customer and try and police this game as best as they can. Not Halo Wars. They said thanks for the money you spent and now we no longer care about you. Case and point.
My friend was playing a non arranged 2v2 Deathmatch. He was going against a no name MirriCatWarrior. My friends name is KiiNG Caboose and his teammate was Prophets 10inch. They were all Prophet of Regrets. As soon as the game started Prophets 10inch started beaming his own teammates base in order to let his friend MirriCatWarrior get the win.

After hearing about this I looked up MirriCatWarrior and noticed he is ranked 14th in 2v2 non arranged deathmatch and he came out of nowhere as he wasnt even ranked in the top 100 a month ago. I reviewed some of his recent games and saw he had been doing this frequently and this is how he has ranked up like he did.

He and is friend search eachother out. If they get on the same team they win. If they are on different teams his friend beams his teammates base. See this is different then boosting. I noticed that MirriCatWarrior also boosted on 1v1 but this is by just having his friend resign on him. What they do in 2v2 non arranged is cheating and it ruins the game for the few of us who still try and play this game legit.
Ive given Microsoft and the Halo franchise alot of money over the years and you would think they would still support the games that I spent my hard earned money on. They have obviously shown that once they get there money from us they don't care anymore what our gaming experience is like. That don't care who cheats in their games. So cheaters have fun because Halo Wars is a game you can cheat on with no fear of anything happening. Microsoft has already gotten our money.
