Is the slot machine. You’re meant to get more credits if you do well in games and stuff like that but I still get 200-400 CR. Where’s the 1000-2000? I feel like I’ve be leveling for like ever. 343i I have huge respect for you guys, is there something you can do to improve it? This doesn’t mean implement 1-50 because that would be dumb.
I agree completly but the slot machine is just random so that’s not the issue. What they should do is add a bonus forwinning games.
They actually do add a bonus in the performance section of the credit gain. Its just small. like 100-200 cR

That’s not enough!
I’m a growing spartan 
You get more credits when you get to higher ranks.
one time i got 3000 credits on the slot 4 games in a row. i actually ended up turning it off before it stopped giving me the 3000 credits. no idea why it was doing that though since i actually quit quite often

So… 3000 credits, you say? loads shotgun And four games in a row, you say? primes grenades Really?

Anyway, the slot machine (I used to call it differently; just remove the top of the O) used to give only around 70 - 100 credits per game for a long time; until February IIRC. It was actually rare that I got a 3-digit amount. But now I get around 250 - 300 credits per game on average and I’m happy with that. After all, it’s only a small bonus.
And come to think of it, the slot machine is yet another luck-based mechanic in Reach. Were Bungie trying to create the game with the most luck-dependent features or what? ^^

This I believe, other than credit jackpots affecting things.
Seems to scale up as the rank requirements go into the hundred thousands and millions of points.
It does really feel like I’ve been leveling up for years. I’m Colonel grade 3 and I’ve been trying to get to brig for about 2 months now. I play daily and attempt challenges. Man, it’s going to take forever.

Just wait until you are a Brig Grade 3. Man, it’s like going through Warrant Officer all over again.
general grade 3 here, get usually 250-450 credits, sometimes 900-1000, every once in a while 3000.

It does. I’m Mythic right now, and I get anywhere between 2000-4000 cR for Invasion and Big Team Battle games (if the game’s time limit is played out, the game complete is around 3000 per game). I get around 2-4k for Firefight games.
