I think it would be a wise idea for 343 to implement a scoring system into Halo 5. Halo Reach and Halo 3 had this system and it added great replay value to the games. Sometimes I still play the campaign of those games to try to beat my old scores.
What are your thoughts on this fellow comrades?
Yes please. And they could use the same system for Firefight (since SpOps isn’t coming back).
I like that idea. I think firefight should be like it was in ODST but with Promethean and the ability to modify it.
Any more input people?

Actually, that is not inherently true… They just haven’t announced their plans for it… Yet…

Frankly has already said (twice) that there are no plans for a season 2 of SpOps but that the story will continue in other mediums. He also said that SpOps was an interesting experiment and that they got a lot of feedback from it, but that (in the end) it was just an experiment.
If that’s not enough to convince you that it’s gone all you need to do is look at the population in SpOps matchmaking and look at the community’s reaction to it. The ideas that SpOps had have great potential, but sadly that potential cannot be achieved, and in the end the huge effort just isn’t worth it from a developer standpoint. I think 343i realized that.
If we’ll ever see SpOps again (and I hope we do), it’s going to be very different. But I don’t think we will. I mean, you can interpret these comments as specifically directed at Halo 4’s Spartan Ops but I don’t they are.
There should be a Spartan Ops Season 2. I’m sure more people will return to halo 4 and extend the games lifespan.
