The 50 xp daily gain was unfortunately not an improvement.
To get from Level 3 to Level 4 requires 1,000 xp.
It would take 20 matches to passively rank up one level (if no other challenges were completed).
Still feels unbearable.

That’s great and all, but it won’t really fix the core issue: challenges should not be the only way to gain experience. All they need to do is bring the MCC’s progression over into Halo Infinite. They could still leave the challenges in there as optional, bonus experience. But it feels like they really want you to pay for those exp boosts on top of paying for the battle pass.
Also I can’t believe they initially had the 2XP boosts only last half an hour, that’s ridiculous.

The ‘fix’ to add to be 50xp/day actually made it slower, too.

Yeah, I’m pretty angry about this. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten angry at a game like this before. I hate the challenge system and I wish I could primarily ignore it while still leveling it up. Honestly, unless they bring back significant skill based per match XP, I don’t think I’m going to play much more of this game without friends.
I used to grind ALL the other halo games because it was fun to be rewarded for being good.
NOW?? I’m rewarded for wandering around all game looking for a grappling hook while the rest of my team plays the objective. Dude this is awful.
Otherwise, the game is a blast.

Well I mean it isn’t perfect, but yeah they hot-fixed it. They’ve already said they’re gonna do more; do people expect them to change the whole system in 3 days?
Also, if people are saying that they don’t understand what 343 was fixing. It’s now 50 XP every match; before the daily challenge count varied such that sometimes it was less than 50 XP per match. That was the fix, and that is indeed fixed. It might not address the overall slowness of the battle pass but it is a fix.
I just wish they didn’t go with the whole battle pass idea. That was one of my favorite things about Halo. You could grind and actually feel rewarded without spending real money on it if you didn’t want to. I feel like the battle pass and the progression just focusing on the battle pass killed the fun of Halo.

Same way I feel right. Which is why I’ve been hoping that someone, somewhere within 343 is listening to people like me when we state to port over MCC’s progression system into Halo Infinite. Because that’s the only thing that could save this. As the game is otherwise fun all around, except for this issue and the lack of a female gender/body type and the issue of armor conforming to the body. In my opinion that is. However, the main issue is the progression which is what needs to take priority.

I’m starting to change my mind about this. I leveled up three times today with the changes to the BP. I don’t know about y’all but I don’t rank up more than 3 times a day in MCC.
Wait until the easy challenges are done and you won’t feel the same way.

this game - great. ranking system - not so great.
I HOPE in the full game on December 8th, they’ll have better opportunities to get more XP and reward people.
winning the game, playing the objective, etc.

Yep , I get they want to monetise the game but they gotta at least do what MCC did.
EXP on Playing/winning or losing/medals and over all performance/playing with clan (maybe a new one to throw in there)

HUGE MISINTERPRETATION OP
The title is a false statement. Earning Xp isnt too slow, its just linear.
Early levels should be unlockable faster than late levels
That way items in the pass get more valuable, especially the last 10 items.
I think they should have a separate spartan rank (SR) that goes of match xp (how well you did) and then have the battle pass stick with challenges.
I know a lot of people wont agree but I have been playing since it launched each day and I am currently level 42, I had done every weekly except 2 (these reset today due to the xp system being tweaked), and i played quite a lot everyday except for when I was in University, It should also be mentioned that due to the promotions I had an xp boost on pretty much all the time.
Because of the fact that I am level 42 I would say that that that xp system is at an alright difficulty since we have to remember that it isn’t supposed to be completed in a week its supposed to take the whole season which ends in may and you have forever to complete the pass with it never expiring.
The rewards on the pass should feel like you earned them and you should be able to tell how much effort someone has put into the game if you see them with some of the higher tiers cosmetics such as the Armor effects. if they gave out xp at the end of the game they would also have to change how much xp is required to go up a rank from 1000 to probably 60 000 or even 100 000. and lets face it you will probably only be getting around 1000 per match and they would also change xp given for challenges to probably 500 for daily and between 500 and 1000 per weekly.
So if they made all these changes it would still take you the same amount of time to go up the pass. you also have to all remember that 343 have put a lot of thought into this system and I believe they have stated somewhere in a blog post that they have listened to up during flighting and are planning on implementing Spartan ranks as well.
Remember how long the pass is suppose to last. (ends in may 2022) and at the rate i have been getting xp i would be max level by end of next week for sure. so be patient cos there will be more free cosmetics such as the youri (samurai) Armor core that starts next week with the fractured event. so if you only want xp to be faster because of skins don’t ask for it to be too fast because then you wont have anything to work for if you can complete it in a few days and then you will have 7 months of nothing to grind but weekly challenges for the ultimate reward.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the numbers i used for a reworked xp system was just a guess going of other games.

I’m sorry I don’t have time like you do. I can’t play all day. I spent 10 dollars for the BP and I’m only at level 10. It is painfully slow to progress. 343 Ind. new EXACTLY what they were doing. I am not going to spend 5 dollars to spend on XP boost to speed up the challenge XP, when in fact they made it painfully slow on purpose. The Multiplayer being free doesn’t excuse bad monetization systems. Also the game whatsoever in this current state, does not promote or encourage getting kills, wins, or capture points in terms of the progression system. Removing series staple features is anti-player. I am also confused why there isn’t your main level like in halo 5. If they don’t change the progression issues I will not be playing anymore.

Do not give in. Do not purchase anything besides the BP. They can track that information but yet again you have the freedom to do what you want.

Honestly, this is how I personally think it should work. I can’t decide on amounts, but this is what we should honestly be earning XP for:
Wins (half for losses)
Medals
Kills (in slayer)
Objectives
Challenges
Is the XP system changed to that, people will be MUCH happier IMHO.
I believe Halo Infinite has the potential to become the best Halo MP of all time. It’s personally been the most fun I’ve had in a Halo game in YEARS.
