NO 1-50 = EPIC FAIL FOR 343i

1-50 = Must Have.
1-50, everything a ranking system should be, rewarding the Players who play the objective and win. And slowly makes the game Harder by Matching you put with higher and higher ranks as you develop your Skills. Having 1-50 is critical for the SUCCESS of Halo 4, A ranking system should be about winning not who plays the most and get the rewards “given” to them.

1-50 = Everybody wins
When you start playing a game with 1-50 rankings you are first match up with lower skilled players, people who haven’t had a lot of experience with the game. So if your new to Halo you can be slowly eased into the community because the players around you will ALWAYS be a similar skill level to you. Overall this makes the game last longer since their is always somthing to strive for and do in the game.

Criminal Truth
But here is the messed up thing, people actually DISAGREE with this, they would rather. Have the Credit system where your Just thrown into a lobby regardless of skill level and put into the game. New players don’t want this as there can’t get better as there being played out the park (No fun). And experienced players don’t want this as they are being dragged down by the new players, It’s NOBODYS fault there just needs to be a division in the skill of players via 1-50.

This is the part that gets really messed up. Instead of putting in 1-50 they put in “Gimmicks” to “Even” the playing field, such as armour lock and perks. We don’t want this, Just look at the forums from here a b.net. We have made it CRYSTAL clear. Telling us that this rubbish is needed to help new players is just straight up BS, just put in a DECENT RANKING SYSTEM.

Last words
Again I have said this many time, it not like we don’t want new features, I’m all for it, as long as there are implemented correctly, and are put in to ENHANCE the game rather to “even” the playing field due there being a **** ranking system or lack off.

Please Comment. Thanks will be appreciated

You sir, have simply shown me that the fight continues.

Keep up the good fight. Hold the line.

Love,

Thanks…

Why not a ladder system?

1-50 for ranks and a cR/Achievement system for buying and unlocking armor.

Wow OP.
Because the two cant co exist.

Oh for crying out loud.

I’m really glad that there are so many of these threads. The ranking system was sooooooooooooooooo important to me, and now there’s no way 343 could -Yoink- it up (knock on wood)

> 1-50 for ranks and a cR/Achievement system for buying and unlocking armor.

Two ranks victory and proficiency.
Proficiency is about kills and assists, victory needs no explanation.
A little toggle in the menu is how you choose to show you preference.

I agree with you. People think of the 1-50 system the wrong way. Everyone isn’t meant to have a 50. Sure, that may be the ultimate goal of a lot of players but you have to be realistic. You will move up if you continue to win and prove that you deserve to play better competition. Lots of players settle into a 30-40 rank and that is just fine. They should be there, since that represents their skill to a great extent. They will find equal matches there. It’s not a progression system and people shouldn’t view it that way. The system just takes a while to gain an impression of how good you are, and a number is just used to represent your skill compared to other people.

As long as high-level players people don’t create brand new accounts after getting a high rank, the system works fine.

Hope so. I think 1-50 would really revitalize Halo.

Yeah that’s always annoying. unfortunately there’s not really much that can be done about that except maybe only allowing one account per IP address or something

I might be ok with this …

But im sure 343i has some sort of ranking system in place - only time will tell.

1-50 ranking isn’t a perfect system, it has it’s flaws.

> Wow OP.

We might as well not waste our time on a ranking system that’s utterly useless right?

That’s all credits are. A number. You could argue the same about 1-50, but those do something.

Why not implement the two together?

U MAD?

But really all your complaining about is an pro players with more experience getting matched up with players with no experience.

I think this could be fixed even with the credit system.

BUT, I do half-way agree with you because i liked it in halo 3 where you had to do stuff
like getting all the skulls or finishing on legendary.

Like if you see someone with EOD in Halo 3, you know he took the time to finish the game
on legendary (or more likely played it on co-op).

Now that the sprint rants are over, everyone turned their attention to the 1-50 rank system threads.

It’s one of the most important topics for Halo 4 IMO.
