Separate Warzone reqs and customization unlocks

Games Other Halo
1

I feel like the requisition package system currently is illogical.
Being mainly an Arena player, I couldn’t care less about Warzone requisition unlocks. I accumulate 10K points so I can purchase the gold package in the hopes of getting new spartan customization items. But I sell over 90% of the unlocked content as I hardly ever get anything but vehicles and weapons that are of no use to me in the Arena matchmaking.

The randomness of the requisition system is what bothers me. The requisition system also favors Warzone players only.

I suggest adding armor packs(chest, visor and helmet items), weapon skin packs and player ID packs(emblems, stances and assassination moves) to the list of packages available for purchase. These new packs would be purchased with either req points or money just like the gold, silver and bronze packs.

Thoughts?

As a warzone player even I would like separate req packs.

It’s annoying and demotivating to play for hours only to get customization or single use req cards.

The problem is that I am not getting any of the permanent loadout weapons from gold or silver req packs. I have bought ~15 silver and ~10 gold and have only unlocked the smg and br. Where are the other guns hiding?!!!? I didn’t leave Destiny and its cruddy loot system to grind out another cruddy loot system in Halo.

I could care care less about custom looks when I am getting outgunned based on luck of req packs.

Same. The requisition system feels too much like the original looting system in Destiny.
I think that if the customization packs were separate from Warzone packs the requisition system would be beneficial for everyone.

The biggest problem is that its random. Players cant play the ways they used to on previous halos because the cards dont come out.

it would be great to have separate customization (amor, helmet) req packs!

I don’t think it’s about not being able to play as used to. But unlocking spartan customization items happens purely by luck unlike in previous Halos.

There are 175 armor items, right? I checked it some time ago but I’m uncertain if I remember correctly or not. Then there are the other Spartan customization items.
I usually get 1-3 customization items from a gold package per every third pack I purchase. That’s pretty inconvenient. The unlock rate of customization items in relation to the amount of them is unreasonable, imo.

If you are only looking to get cosmetic items you are wasting your time on Gold Packs

10k RP will get you two silver packs. Thats 4 permanent unlocks. Gold guarantees 2 just like the Silver but costs half as much.

If you don’t care about Warzone, which is crazy to me, than spend your points on Silver Packs. You’ll get a lot more armors/helmets/visors/etc. than from Gold Packs.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll give it a try.

I still don’t like random rpg style “loot” systems in fps games(the req packs are basically a sort of loot). Giving players the freedom to spend their points for packs that guarantee the type of unlocks they’re looking for would only be beneficial for the gaming experience imo. Pack costs would have to be adjusted in a way that wouldn’t make unlocking everything too easy, but being able to choose a pack that unlocks the type of items I want would be nice.

I didn’t know that. I’ve been saving all my RP for Gold. I’ll have to try some Silver packs.

I like this idea. Would keep me from getting 50 mongooses (mongeese?) at a time…lol I hate those things.

I support this

Of course this would make sense, but they would make less money from micro transactions. So won’t change anytime soon.

Basically this, the loot system is frustrating to promote spending real money, that’s also RNG though so you’re not guaranteed something either way.

I would be all for cosmetic only packs but I can’t see it happening. In the mean time just buy Silver packs, golds are not worth it until you have most common items unlocked.
