I am a very competitive Halo player and I mostly only care about the ranks in the playlist. Still I don’t want Halo 5 to only have max 130 SR ranks that you can get within 2 weeks of playing. I hope they either increase the amount of xp per rank or add more than 130 because otherwise I think its pointless to even have SR ranks if you get max rank within a few weeks. Something like Halo 3 EXP system or even Halo: Reach EXP system, something that takes a long time to get to max rank otherwise whats the point of having everyone at 130 SR. Its like ok this persons played for about 2 weeks, but compare a 5 star general in Halo 3 or a Inheritor on reach it means they played the game a crap ton. I also think that having SR 130 next to your name is stupid. What does that number mean??? They shouldve kept Halo 3 or Reach ranks like Brigadier General or Master Sergeant.
If it was COD you wouldn’t want to get 10th prestige in 2 weeks (depending on the player, a lot of people prestige grind at the launch of the game) but I still think it should take a lot of playtime and somewhat dedication to get max SR. Anyone have any thoughts or know anything if you got the game early? (which by the way I think its stupid and unfair for anyone to get the game early. What makes these people so special and anymore important then us. There are people out there that don’t even play Halo but got the game early because they are popular on Twitch or YouTube compared to hardcore Halo lovers that have to wait. Yes I realize they want to promote the game and want to get it out there to get people to buy it but its still wrong. Anyway my opinion I could be wrong but that’s what I think please don’t hate on me for it or start a fight in this topic.) So whats everyone’s thoughts on max SR rank?

Both like I said rank playlists is all that matters but I still think that if your going to have an SR it should mean something like Halo 3 or reach EXP systems where it took a long time to get to max rank.
"There are people out there that don’t even play Halo but got the game early because they are popular on Twitch or YouTube compared to hardcore Halo lovers that have to wait."Hens “press release” for publicity,it helps build awareness for halo 5 so more people buy it.
“I am a very competitive Halo player and I mostly only care about the ranks in the playlist.” The competitive skill ranking is exactly what you’re asking for (CSR)https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/enter-the-arena
“I still think it should take a lot of playtime and somewhat dedication to get max SR.” You should wait to see how long it’ll take to max SR before making assumptions,for all you know it might be a task that requires “dedication” like what you’re hoping for so don’t worry.

I understand that but I still think its unfair to other people.
You dont understand ranks in playlist and SR are 2 completely different things. Ranks in playlist are bronze silver gold platinum etc. The real ranking system. SR is the EXP system thats just like COD where you rank up by playing the game. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.
Your right maybe I’m jumping to conclusions but all I did was ask for peoples thoughts and opinions.

Honestly if I had to make a stab in the dark I’d say it caps at 500-1000 or not at all seeing as all you get from ranking up SR is req packs.it would be kinda lame getting to max and not getting any more req packs from SR especially if you play a lot of WZ.

I feel like your right on that one. I feel that its either 500-1000 or not at all it just keeps going,
I’d love for them to have something like Halo: Reach, It took a lot of game time to get Inheritor and even when Halo 4 came out they were rare. There should totally be something like that for Halo 5, I’d rather not be max level after playing for a week and a half like halo 4.
Something like halo reachs system would be fine with me. But keeping the whole competitive Thing they have going on now as well. I don’t know what SR is. I mean I know it’s Spartan rank. But it makes no sense. What does SR-50 even mean? At least with Reach it was luitenant or warrant officer or noble.

I know I hate that too. Its stupid oh i have a dumb number next to my name instead of Brigadier General or Master Sergeant.
I hope it takes as long or longer than Reach as well but I’m not really worried about it. I really want to be able to play some competitive Arena and enjoy those playlist rankings and trying to go up in those
