i think that fair for everyone,the 1-50 crowd and the progression system crowd.
please 343 consider this . people doesnt care about progression system ranks and will jump to the next big thing when they get bored

Nova>>>11m cR (be at least level 20)
forerunner>>> 13m cR (be at least level 30)
reclaimer>>>16.5m cR (be at least level 40)
inheritor >>>20m cR (be at least level 50)
Thats’s what halo 3 was…
So, this is a skill based rank based on credits?
I think the ranks should either be based on skill or experience, but not both. If they are going to track both, they should be tracked in seperate ways (a la Halo 3 or Reach). Mixing them together just muddies the waters, IMO.
I have no problem with xp or credit based ranks… I think there is a lot of mis-information about how they work (lots of people think they are used in matchmaking, but they aren’t). A credit/xp based ranking system is just a fun way for a player to feel rewarded for putting more time into a game. That’s all.
A skill based rank is very important for multiplayer. What a lot of people don’t realize is that Reach has a skill-based ranking system in place for multiplaer… they just don’t show ranks to the players. I think this system should continue in Halo 4, but I feel they should make the matchmaking more strict when it comes to matching players of different skill levels. Just my thoughts
