Who remembers the double experience weekends from Halo 3? Those used to give me extra motivation to play (and try to win), so that I could rank up twice as fast as normal. I know that experience is mostly a wash in Halo 4 because of how easy it is to rank up to SR130 (I did it in less than six months post release), but wouldn’t it be cool to see some other weekend motivator return to Halo 4?
I have so many other games I am/could be playing now (GTA V, ACIV, Arkham Origins), but I would love to see something tangible return to Halo 4 that would give me a specific time and reason to come back. I played all day for the one year anniversary because they offered the “Guilty” emblem, so something along those lines would work. It just seems that other than a rotating hopper of playlists that should be in the game to begin with, I am not given much of a reason by the studio to keep playing Halo 4. I mean hell, even a DLC only playlist for the weekends would bring me back, because I never see those maps. I nearly skeeted myself last week when I got Pitfall in a doubles map, it was the first DLC map I got to play on since Champions launch.
