Okay lets start with what 343 has been trying to do with mp. 343 is trying to connect the mp to the universe of halo so why would 343 use spartan progression system like in halo 4 which was boring and has no ties to cannon or the universe. Spartans have actual military ranks in the universe see Palmers rank it is not spartan rank 110 its an actual military rank, Commander, Chief is a Petty Officer. See where i am going with this 343 should either use the halo 3 progression system where if you win a game you get a point that point goes towards you military progression rank now if you lose you dont get any points and if you quit or get booted then you should lose a point. I think this system would help bring down the quitting in the game like people do so much right now in the mcc, it also would make x2 points weekends awesome for special weekend playlists.
They could use the Reach progression system which uses real military ranks too where you get points for playing the match no matter what and get a bonus for either winning or doing good yourself. Both of the systems I just listed off are more interesting and could be considered cannon & connected to the universe of halo, spartan ranks are just boring imo.
YOUR THOUGHTS?
P.S. not talking about skill rank that is something entirely different.
The BETA system is better then halo 4 but it could be better.

it was the same thing if my memory serves me right all it did was increase from spartan 1 to spartan 2 and so on, i am not talking about the skill rank system which was silver gold onyx that is okay.

did you not read i am not talking about rank skill i am talking about the other progression system in halo 5 which is the same as h4’s, you know the system like cod or bf or any other game where the more you play you get exp points you get.
They use that to show you that you’re close to getting a new req bundle. You get a random req pack when your Spartan rank goes up to the next number that’s all its for just to show how close you are to getting new req packs.
hated how long it took to level up in Reach. I think I stopped at Noble. Couldn’t take it anymore.
I did however Rank up in H4 too fast. LOL http://i.ytimg.com/vi/RiKsVayMkns/maxresdefault.jpg Wink!

if that is true then there is no progression system and 343 should implement one of the systems i wrote in in my posts so there would be skill rank, military rank, and that req pack spartan rank.

lol, then use the halo 3 system 1pt for every win & points go towards military rank. loss= 0 points quits = -1pts
or win=2pts loss =1pt quits = -1pt

that also means they removed a feature that was in 2 past halos i think the quality of the game would be better and last longer if the implement military rank progression system from either H3 or Reach.
If it bothers you so much, think of it as a veterancy or proficiency system, with the other competitive rank as a system that determines your placement on the War Games leaderboards.

I dont see why they would replace that feature in h4 and h5 if it goes against what they are building in mp a shared universe maybe 343 just too lazy or just doesn’t care it’s a shame really.

They made both a progression system and a ranking system. That’s pretty much the best of both worlds.

Again spartan rank progression system IMO is boring and is not cannon or in the universe of halo like 343 is trying to push with multiplayer. It makes no sense and military ranks are cooler. (Again my opinion and i am not looking forward to oh yeah I’m spartan rank 60 which really means nothing to a spartan and now i get to rank up 70 more times which means nothing) military ranks would be more interesting in my opinion and would fit the game’s universe more too.

I don’t think watching numbers slowly advance can ever not be boring.
As for it not being canon-
I’m pretty sure what 343 do now make it canon. It’s their game now, after all.
The ranking system is not the point of multiplayer, as, (when talking canon) multiplayer is merely a virtual training ground, there is no in game character benefit to training, and soldiers don’t gain military ranks from doing said training.
I know spartans don’t have ranks anymore, but i dislike the numbers.
