> Since it’s being developed by Infinity Ward v2, no. Instead we will have prestiges.
there is no 1-50. the community bungie and 343 all recognized it had severe problems such as boosting and de ranking.
secondly there is no custom search confirmed.
third there will be 2 types of “ranking systems” an upgraded version of reaches where a player is rewarded heavily for playing the objective and kills ETC. The second being some type of skill ranking system involving letters and numbers. we don’t know how it will work yet.
lastly please don’t post flame bait. We all know that 343 is in no way shape or form “infinity ward V2.” they have already put much more time and effort into the game. they have been listening to feedback from the community. They went to MLG and had them play to get advice for a competitives view. Regardless of your view on MLG there gametypes are highly known as balanced.
So they are nothing like infinity ward. Please have a good day sir.

Same.
It was far from a perfect system…
Ranked and “social” was a halo 3 thing. People need to get out of that mindset.
visible fiddys are never coming back. But there certainly will be a skill matching system, its called trueskill, it ranks you with a hidden number from 1 to 50 and all xbox games are required to use it. Do you know what the H3 system was? It just displayed the hidden numbers, thats all. It was not a great system, in fact bungie themselves called making the numbers visible “like pouring sand into a wonderful engine” or words to that effect.
Separate from that, there will be a reach style progression system most probably.
> Separate from that, there will be a reach style progression system most probably.
Even though 343 have said the ranking system will incorporate skill and experience?

It was better than what we had in Reach… which was… nothing.

Keep working on that reading comprehension sport.

I’ll have you know I have the reading age level is a 6-year-old.
> Q: I’m very interested in the multiplayer! I loved the way the ranking systems were done in Halo 2, and wasn’t as happy with the ranking systems in Halo 3. Would there be a chance that they would bring back a similar ranking system in Halo 4 like it was in Halo 2? It felt more competitive and fun in Halo 2 to reach a 35+ level.

> A: We have a different career progression model in Halo 4 that spans traditional MP as well as Spartan Ops. It should be a satisfying measure of experience AND skill, but we will have more to say about that and other stat tracking at a later time.
343 are going to try and make it include “experience AND skill” as determining factors…?
Anyways I don’t believe 343 are that stupid not to include some sort of ranking system on top of the “career progression model” that clearly many people aren’t satisfied with.
There’s no 1-50.
Progressive xp lvling up like Reach. With a true-skill system in the background you cannot see.

Which is what I don’t get. 1-50 was flawed, but it was still MUCH better than the one Reach had, and that made it’s way to Halo 4.
In fact, I’m willing to bet the progression system from credits caused more boosters and AFKers than 1-50 did. Only difference is Inheritor accounts aren’t sold as often as 50, because Inheritor takes a while to get.
am i the only one that doesnt care how the ranking system work i mean i just really dont care about my rank at all i dont even know what rank i was in halo 3 i think the highest in the 1-50 thing was 30 something i never paid attention to it the only reason i wanted to rank up in reach at all was that some of the armor couldnt be bought with out being a certain rank like the mark 5 helmet which i stopped using the only reason i know what my BPR is is because i look at my profile every now and then

Exactly! Thank you. We ended up with a system that promotes griefing because there is no reason to win.
You can’t even play firefight without an AFK. I get them all the time in MM too. It sucks.

What you guys describe is something I have to deal with all too often…
Despite that, I ran into more AFKers and such in Halo 3 than I did in Reach. Which astounds me.
Not only that, but I get more accurate matches in Reach. Which shouldn’t be the case…
You put someone who is 17 ranks below me on my team, and put someone who is 10 ranks above me on the other team…
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice work there, matchmaking…
But I do agree that Reach’s MM is total crap. It just works better for me than TrueSkill did, for NO apparent reason…
But, let’s be honest, Halo has never been one for “technical” perfection.
No, something better will be taking it’s place.
I wish 
But no, Frankie really hates it. He is actually kinda weird about it, it’s almost funny.
I also think we need a different ranking system, one like in Halo 3 would be good, where you can drop as well as increase.
> I wish But no, Frankie really hates it. He is actually kinda weird about it, it’s almost funny.
I don’t think he understands/competition. He said ranks 30-40 were good. That’s just not true.
> I don’t think he understands/competition. He said ranks 30-40 were good. That’s just not true.
I believe he made it up to 33. You know, where the really good players used to hang.
so dum 343!
why would i not want to be matched up with people of my skill??
and dont just say “search by skill then”
ill put if like this:
-imagine the areana style ranking on your favorite playlist?? then people could see how good you are at your favorite playlist, and you show then how good you are instead of having to wait to ingame:D
thats what is was like with h3, players of your skill in the game with you, no noobs by your standards
