Ding Ding.
Medals

I feel like I’m going to be getting 50 medals every game

Don’t get me wrong i really enjoy them

But i feel like im getting them without having to work for them in the new Flood Game mode-I think you get one for each kill and for CTF you get them for well anything

I like medals but i feel like in Halo 4 there just handed out like Candy on Halloween

Perfections will be tougher with Stalkers around.

The good thing is that we will be able to identify who did what easier.

I agree. The sheer amount of medals in halo 4 makes them seem less rewarding. But the rare medals will still be rare. The amount of medals in general doesn’t change that.

That medal will be very Difficult to get…

Even if they are given out like Halloween candy (pro tip for buying Halloween candy: Buy the stuff you don’t like, not the yummy stuff. Oops!), what’s it matter? The medals result in Spartan Points, I think, so it’s just a way of helping you along the Progression Ranks.

I really don’t care if there are a bajillion medals. I just wanna play the game already!!

getting a medal before when they were actually earned through performing somewhat difficult feats was “holy -Yoink-!!!” now its “what was that? meh…”, the thrill from getting medals has long be lost.

This is how I see it.

Yeah, tons of medals is pointless, but that just means we’ll have tons of some, but the rare ones will still be rare, and matter just the same.

I has no trick or treats at my house. :frowning:

But still a good idea :slight_smile:

what do you mean by “Ding Ding Ding”?

Very true

And thinking about it i get between 30-50 medals each Game in Reach

100-120 each game in H4

Yeah. + the more you get the more credit/Spartan points u get and the faster you rank up

And that’s always good…

Giving out so many medals is a feelgood tactic to make players look like they are doing better than they actually are.

On the other hand, getting a medal for everything will show what exactly a player was doing all game.

There’s certainly a lot more medals than before, and some of them will be pretty simple to get.

But some of these medals just seem insane. for instance.

‘Gravemind’

‘Kill ALL Spartans in a row as a Flood without dying’

Just try getting this medal… 0_0

So is there a medal for hoarding the spartan laser? I haven’t actually seen a list so my games might get awkward

Halo 5 if you are lucky…

That’s exactly what they are going for

And i think it’s going to work…

The progression system, or the points that cause ranking up in the progression system, rely solely on medals. Each medals worth will likely be tuned for each playlist.

To give accurate results of how you should rank up, they want a lot to consider. That, I believe, is the reason for so many medals. To get more accurate information about how you’re doing, and then ranking you up accordingly.
