So among bungie’s duller ideas, why is First Strike always the #1 medal?! It’s super frustrating when I get like a riot or higher perfection and seeing my perfection beaten by a first strike. Please fix this in Halo 4…
This and add a Finish the Fight medal for the last kill.
I don’t get why everyone complains about this. It’s just a medal. Not that big of a deal
Sounds like a problem so big 343i should have worked months on.
I like the first strike medal, but yeah I agree it shouldn’t be in the top medal list.
> I din’t get why everyone complains about this. It’s just a medal. Not that big of a deal
It’s just funny! It seems like one of the bungie employees thought “hey it would be cool if we listed the 3 top medals of the game in the post game stats, ya lets put that feature in”. . . and then they forgot to code the game to know what medals are better than others.
lol!
Yeah, I don’t know why it’s a top medal. I wouldn’t care too much if it stayed one, though.
This rounds out the bottom end of Reach’s long list of design flaws. In any case it would be nice if a Perfection took precedence over First Strike.
I agree that it was very annoying that first strike was always a top medal.
> This and add a Finish the Fight medal for the last kill.
That would be a great medal to have.
They should have maybe the top 5 or 7 medals, included in which would be the first strike and last strike medals.
I also want MVP back and I want betrayals to show.

Yea thats a good point. I never thought about that. I remember when I got a perfection a couple weeks ago it wasn’t displayed but the first strike was… it was frustrating, but I was just happy that I got a perfection

Hey man, little things like this are important too. It nice to see companies paying attention to them.

What happened to everyone’s mood today? It is rather unnecessarily bitter.
On topic, I preferred when it showed MVP, and the three top various medals. A first strike is usually chance.
> This and add a Finish the Fight medal for the last kill.
This may not work since in Halo 4, you go straight to the post-game stats when the game ends and you don’t get time to move around.
Another problem’d be when somebody gets a double kill when there’s only one kill left to win. It sometimes ends a final score, in BTB, as ‘151’ instead of ‘150’ and so on.
OT: I agree OP. Everyone I’ve ever spoken to agrees the ‘first strike’ medal SHOULD NOT be a ‘top medal’. Maybe a special place to display the medal and the person who got it but NOT in the ‘top medals’.
Not true. If you get two exterminations, they will show up instead of a first strike medal.
> I agree that it was very annoying that first strike was always a top medal.
Yeah the medal is fine but SHOULDN’T ALWAYS BE NUMBER 1 on the list

It isn’t but it is annoying…Someone will always get a first strike in a game but not always perfections, running riots, etc.
it, and Last Strike (assuming it exists), should have their own spot:
Top First and Last Strike Medals:
Player 3
Player 5
Top Medals:
Player 1
Player 2
Player 4

I like this, but what about MVP?
I’d like a system like this:
MVP: Mr. I’mAwesome4TH4L0
First Strike: xXItzLeG17Xx
Top Medals:
Perfection: Mr. I’mAwesome4TH4L0
Overkill: Mr. I’mAwesome4TH4L0
Assassination: xXItzLeG17Xx
Finish The Fight: XXR0FLXM4ST3RXX
Something Along those lines.
