So I’m sure we all remember the lt. colonel grade 3 rank cap that Bungie implemented in Halo Reach, so all the noobies could catch up. Was that not the dumbest thing ever?
For goodness sake, 343 please DO NOT implement that crap for Halo 4 or any other future Halo games. It was an extremely bad move on Bungie’s part. Please don’t make the same mistakes…

Staying as Lieutenant Colonel Grade 3 just for people to complete a certain amount of challenges globally was really pointlessly boring.

Its too late for a poll, just ask if anyone else agrees with you

You could try making another thread with a poll. Just ask a Moderator to lock/delete this one.

Got a better idea, COMPLETLY REMOVE the ‘crap reach’ ranking system, give us back 1 to 50 where it requires skill instead of being force to credit spam by spamming the stupid fuel rod in firefight…

I’m 99.9% sure this could be the case again. Frank stated that people that buy the LE will be able to reach specializations first. I was wondering how that was possible considering the LE came out the same time as the game and some people getting normal edition could rank up just as fast or faster. Now it makes more sense. People who buy the LE won’t have a cap and everyone else will. This is just thoughts and to me the only reasonable explanation for what Frank said about LE. Sucks if it is.

There is a skill-based ranking system. Its not 1-50 or Arena.
There is a peogression system too, but there is also a skill-based one affecting matches and stuff.
What would be the point of a rank cap all the ranks are hidden anyway. It would serve no purpose other than to piss people off. If they did that people would just stop playing until the cap was removed, at least I would.

You can only use specializations when you hit the max rank.
I believe its like this.
Standard Edition: You hit max rank and unlock 1 or 2 specializations. You complete one of them and it unlocks another or two more.
Limited Edition: You hit max rank and 6 specializations are unlocked. You go back through and unlock another one or two, like what the Standard Edition does.
By ranking up faster, I’m pretty sure he only means you’ll have access to more specializations first. Which would mean you could hit the max rank and specialize in more things faster.
> So we should have players spoil it by getting everything in a month?
It’s nobody’s fault if certain players have the ability & time to unlock things before others. They bought the game with their hard earned money, and xbox live is open 24/7/365, so who is to limit things in-game & tell them what they can & can’t do with their newly owned game?
With that said, what was the point of punishing players who had time to play the game more than others, by implementing a temporary rank cap? Since when did Bungie decide to become a dictatorship and “control” when to let people receive unlocks. They bought the game, Bungie made their money, so let the player(s) play it to their heart’s content without limitations.
I’m not aware that any other game/game developer pulled this on their dedicated fans… If so, please enlighten me.

Your kidding right? I have seen the rank system, its the reach system so how is playing the same map over,over skillful?
