Disappointed with SR-130 rewards...

From ‘The Halo Bulletin: 10.10.12’:

> Other players will be able to see your overall progress through the Specializations by your SR rank. This keeps going up by one each time you earn a Specialization rank, all the way up to SR-130. There might be a reward or two waiting for those who hit SR-130!

As far as I can tell, the “reward or two” that was waiting for us when we hit SR-130 was the ‘Mastery’ emblem foreground & ‘Maximum’ emblem background.

Was anyone else disappointed with this being the only reward? Were you expecting a set of armor or weapon skins?

Were you actually expecting something from 343? The games bad for a reason…

A special set of armor or a weapon skin might have been a better reward imo :confused:

I was expecting Cortana to pop out and give me a lapdance

Hell, Even Dr. Halsey atleast…

Shame

Thanks for that - made me smile :slight_smile:

No, I wasn’t disappointed with what the reward was.

why do you deserve a reward anyway? getting to sr130 doesnt mean you earned anything, all you did was play a lot. hell, you dont even need to get a kill in h4 and you will still eventually hit max rank.

Yea a little. Now I just wish I could store my xp, that is essentially going to waste until they change it…if they change it.

What’s the point of 100% commendation if you profile doesnt show commendation progress? What’s the point of unlocking armor if armory progress is not shown on your profile? Reach had this, and it made a lot people proud to show off their 100%s. It goes hand-in-hand with SR130, you don’t have much to show for it except the rank.

When you play you ‘earn’ XP which increments your rank. SR-130 is the maximum rank in the game and bs angel said we could expect a reward or two for reaching the maximum rank. I’m expressing disappointment that it was just an emblem.

I’m glad you didn’t design the reward system for the game. It sounds like you’d be happy with us getting nothing at all for reaching the maximum rank!

if you were disappointed with that then definitely dont go for perfections. All you get for maxing perfections is a forearm that noone can see…

I remember you saying on here how disappointed you were when you got it.

343i owes you more huh?

You are SR126, why play it that much then?

Who cares about rewards? Just play the game already. Wasn’t that the original intention of video games?

I care about rewards, hence the reason for this thread.

I also enjoy playing the game and having fun.

Why do you think the two have to be mutually exclusive?

> Were you actually expecting something from 343? The games bad for a reason…

This.

343i - Hey,you got to S130…here have a bird.

What if the surprise is visible CSR lolololololol.

Yeah, 30 years ago…
