This video is for you guys at 343. If you guys have 17 mins. I advise you guys to watch this video. The guy talks about Reach and how to make a better experience. By now I bet you guys have seen these types of videos but this guy is soooo right. Not only does he tell you what to do but the things he says is also a good gideline on how not to screw up Halo 4.
This video has been posted multiple times, 343i have no doubt seen it.
They have even commented that 1-50 rankings will NOT be coming back.

Coming back in Reach? Or future halo games?
And could you provide info where they explicitly say that they will not bring back a numerical ranking system into Halo?
Didn’t mean to get all over your case, it’ll just be closure if i see links,vids,etc. 
EDIT: I understand if they’re not coming back in Reach, for many reasons, coding, resources, etc.
EDIT 2: Found the quote…
> TrueSkill ranking is being used to find good matches inside the MLG playlist (and all other playlists as well). However, since almost all of our resources and people are currently committed to Halo 4, we simply don’t have the resources available to do what would, by necessity, be a fairly dramatic overhaul of the UI and certain systems to expose that number. This is simply the way Reach was built.

Thanks!
I really appreciate the fact they responded, and yeah, i understand we can’t get ranks in Reach and im glad they’re going balls to the wall on H4, very relieved to be honest. I’ve been a huge proponent of saying “Dont try to fix Reach after a certain point, and just focus on making H4 the best it can be and what you guys and the fans deserve”

Sorry for not being clear enough, typed that in a rush.
Here’s a quote,

That was aimed at the MLG playlist getting a 1-50 ranking, as you said, due to resources as such.
However, putting The Arena rankings into any other playlists in Reach, is still a possibility, but how it would work with Seasons and stuff, is a mystery.
EDIT: Whoops, didn’t see you found the quote, I hit quote before you edited.
Thanks a lot Moa
