So after much frustration with the whole non visible CSR I have decided that I will give the new system a try and see how it feels.
I guess Im just not ready to call it quits especially after a H4 that possibly has the best game play in my opinion out of them all. I am one who really enjoys the sprint option, just really speeds things up and I think that creates a nice somewhat new dynamic to the flow. That said some of the weapons need to be taken out of loadout / ordinance all together IE (Boltshot / Incineration cannon).
The Forge maps have been very nice to play on so far and has given the game a fresh fun factor and hope that future maps will also be good.
Still it really is unfortunate that we will not be able to view what our opponent will bring to the table before a match. I will be trying something that many have probably already thought of and that is to simply put my level in my service tag.
LV47
This will likely be abused by trolls and obviously not good for in game communication but why the -Yoink- not? Just some thoughts. Im under the influence and bored with typing…
Funnily enough now that you’ve mentioned this I bet 343i will stop people from being able to do it lol.
Thrusterpack. Armor ability of choice for the competitive.

I hate it to the point that I absolutely love shooting the idiots that use it out of the air.
Your thinking the jetpack. Thruster is the one that gives you the short quick little boost forward left right or down.

I think it works diagonally too.

Oh yeah lol indeed. Deff a nice little tool and very frustrating when used against you correctly. Not sure if I like that as an AA but its not as bad as boltshots everywhere.

If the CSR is also visible on waypoint then this is a very good idea. The only problem I see is that if it isn’t visible anywhere, people lying about their level in their tag.

Yeah I kind of touched on that but if enough people used it correctly it could be a nice alternative. Secondary armor color coding ranks could be another thing used with the higher levels but not as good as the service tag idea.

Might just work. But the power of the trolls is strong.
I do not understand why everyone is so upset about ranks not being visible in game. From what i read, your going to be matched to people who are in your rank range. I can see where everyone is saying how it will not be perfect, but still what is the point? Waypoint is on the xbox and it should not be a problem to go check it after a couple of matches.
If CSR is only based on win and loss, then how can anyone truly say that it is a measure of skill? I could understand if it took all the aspects of your performance into account such as amount of deaths compared to amount of kills in a match, and the number of headshots or assassinations, but from what people are saying, it doesn’t. So what is the point of complaining about it, if their implementing it into the game along with a competitive playlist?
> If CSR is only based on win and loss, then how can anyone truly say that it is a measure of skill?
Its hard to explain. But when playing against legit high levels its clear they
are the level they are because of their skill. A 47 nine times out of ten is going to wipe the floor up against a level 30. Players of skill know what it takes to win and therefor their rank is higher. The legit high ranks from H3 and H2 know what Im talking about.
As far as why Im upset there was never a real reason to remove visible skill ranks from the game. The majority wanted it in and 343 said F you to us all. Theres a feeling you get when you get matched up against players of similar skill or better yet when you are facing off against a higher skill than you. The stakes are higher and it truly gives you all the motivation in the world to win.
Of course not everyone feels this way but those that do totally “get it”. What I dont understand is for those that do not care about visible skill ranks is WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE ON WAY OR ANOTHER!? Its so far from making sense its not even funny. There was always the option to play ranked or play social WIN WIN EITHER WAY FOR EVERYONE.

Thanks for your response. I always thought that it was based on improving on different things and wins. I kind of understand, but hopefully you will really see the difference because i have yet to play against someone who does not use the dmr all the time or active camo

But see that is something that is fundamentally wrong with how H4 is right now. Theres no way the ranking system could work with all of the AA and such because gameplay is not balanced. They will be putting out a competitive playlist that should change that.
