I’ve been playing Reach a lot for the last week and tonight one of the strangest things happened. I was playing Team Slayer and I was ranked Major and about half way to Major Grade 1. After one of the games I jumped an entire level (a whole xp bar) and at first I was like, “Maybe I just got a random jackpot.” Next two games same thing happened. So in three games I went from Major to Major Grade 3. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?
Was I matched against a rigged lobby or what? I am so confused! Btw, no one else got the same thing.
I got 27000+ credits in one game, even though I only got 9 kills because 2 of the opposite team quit. No idea why because I’ve had 19-0 in a match and only 1300 credits…

Well that is the only explanation I can give. Only other thing is that it could have been credits from custom challenges being added on, although I’m doubting that is the case here if I am to presume correctly. Only place I really got any jackpots were in Firefight games at 4000cr each. Got 3 in an hour or two. None whatsoever in Matchmaking.
