There has been allot of speculation about the hight and reset time of the credit cap in Halo 4. So today I decided to track my progress fresh from a 26hr break to ensure I was completely cleared of my previous cap. For most time zones the majority of the earnings was within one day, the time zone information is below in the chart. I managed to far exceed the general speculation that the cap is about 62,000, and even if the cap did reset half way through the 6.5hr session it still would only be 124,000 so I’m not sure what to make of it. Apologies if there are any repeats in the chart and of course I cannot guarantee this will be the same for all players.
