I think they need to bring back the 1-50 ranking system exactly like H2 BUT with Xp on the side of it just like H3. I always liked in H3 how you can earn xp in a certain playlist. For example Im a 5star General 50 locked in Team Slayer and I love to play on it alot because Im really good at Team Slayer. Or somebody else is a 5star in doubles because their really good at doubles. You know it really shows what your good at and I would really like the playlist xp rank to come back for Halo 4 exactly like it was in H3.
I agree but they need more levels it should go all the way to 100 or something really hight so the skill gap is highlighted.
Competitive Playlists - Halo 2’s Ranking System
Social Playlists - Reach’s Ranking System

In my opnion they should bring back a halo 3 style of ranking up but use some cool ranks like reaches

I agree
1-50 should never return, in any iteration. However, a new skill-based rating system is something needed for Halo 4. Whatever the new rating system, it should not be linked to your rank. Rank should be determined solely by an experience point system, like in Halo Reach.
> I agree but they need more levels it should go all the way to 100 or something really hight so the skill gap is highlighted.
Search times would be extremely long if the ranking system went up to 100. The Halo 2 ranking system already highlights the skill gap because of how hard it is to continuously rank up.

Absolutley not. 1-50 ranking system is 1 of the biggest things we need for Halo 4. It exceeds competition and gives players a reason to get on everyday and give it there all to win. All of the competitive community supports the 1-50 ranking system and so do I.

You call yourself competitive yet support a progressive skill system. Any system meant to reflect a player’s skill should never be progressive.
I think you guys need to take off your nostalgia goggles, because Halo 2’s ranking system sucked.
If Halo 4 doesnt have 1-50 it will a huge disappointment because 1-50 ranking system is one of the biggest reasons why Reach failed.

Don’t make claims that have no data to back them up

I dont understand how H2s ranking system sucked because it was the best ranking system Halo ever had. Can you please elaborate?
Why does everyone argue about which ranking system to use. It’s so obvious, offer 1-50 ranked playist, and social playlists, then everyone is happy, just play whichever one you want to play. Just because you don’t like 1-50 doesn’t mean they shouldn’t offer it, just don’t play it, simple as that.

Oh really. I want you to watch this video from an MLG Pro explaining why we need a 1-50 ranking system. It makes alot of sense and I think that 343 needs to listen to this guy and what he says in the video. ---->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohMtRr-ywh0

I’ve seen it. That’s still one person’s opinion.
Check out my idea, i think it gets the best of both systems:

Yeah 1 persons opinion and like millions of competive Halo players like myself who agree and would agree with him. The truth is without a 1-50 ranking system then Halo 4 will be a huge disappointment and Halo will most likely die. Its all about that 1 number that gives players a reason to try and win. And thats what we need. Everything in that video that is stated makes so much sense and is so true. I really hope 343 watched that video.

I’m sorry to see that you think so little of Halo, that it could not survive on its own merits.
Halo Reach is very much alive. Yes, it’s not top of the charts, but its alive and well, and without a ranking system.

I personally have numerous people that I’ve played h2-h3 with, who, when reach came out, were very discouraged by the arena system; primarily the low playlist count, and lack of real-time skill progression/regression.
Facts buddy, Its been debated by everyone for over a year, so if you don’t think people played less because of this you must be re re re re re dumb.
