So far i am loving everything about Halo 4. The armor looks nice. I like the ability to have what weapons we are comfortable with into battle and the AA’s seemed to actually be balanced.
Now i am playing Reach and my problem is this, there is no skill based system as we all know and it is a problem that many of us hate. I think a decent system would be to have a Starcraft 2 like system of play. We are all ranked into a division of medals. The system places us into a rank based on accuracy, kd ratio, how well we perform overall in battle etc. There could be multiple groups such as what we have we in double arena. and in that medal rank we have an actual number rank that starts at a higher number and moves up as we get better. Once we pass 1 in silver then we move to gold and start at the highest number ranks there as well.
I like SC2 approach because it lets me play the game at my own pace and not at an MLG like place system. The matchmaking system is pretty nice and works well. My problem is in Reach there are inheritors and such that i am really better at. They play the game more but it didnt my -Yoink- when i was there. Ranks dont intimidate me in reach like they did in halo 2 or 3. If i knew i was going up against a level 50 i knew it must be someone along the lines of mlg.
