So to my understanding, Im SoL when i hit 70 in the next few hours? Just because i had to wait to get the game?
Unless you wanna buy my extra specialization code 
I feel your pain though, early specializations should have stayed a LE exclusive.

You’re already hitting 70? Geez, slow down kiddo. Trust me, the top is lonely.
I think people should be thankful they are receiving any specs early. That was reserved for LE users. So, be happy you have that at all.
No offense but id rather not buy something from some one else online like that. Especially when it was given to you at no cost unless you got the LE version. Maybe ill luck out and a friend will or some other nice enough person would spare me a code.
The race to 130 isn’t fabulous. If you want to race to 130, you’re going to be bored cause it’s very easy and inevitable to get, and nothing special.
You can AFK half your games and rank up, playing this game for rank is lame.
Im not racing, nor complaining about anything so dont treat me as such. I was just asking.
I play a lot of halo i have a lot of free time since my PC broke. I was just making sure aside from the code or LE 70 is my limit.
what a coincidence
you guys are missing the point. we shouldnt be glad that were getting the other specializations at all. that fact is the other specializations shouldve been offered to everyone at the beginning. not just LE and above.
it would be fine if it was specific armors sets or something purely aesthetic like that, but these affect how the game is played. its an unfair advantage given to those who payed more for the game or payed early. its not an “oh im more of a fan so i get this cool armor” its “i payed more, i payed earlier so i win.” which isnt fair at all
personally have SE ,but i played since launch so im getting the other specs now but there are people who are already sr130 that ive played against, and it isnt fun. not because theyre better than me, but because they have perks that i didnt even have the option to start earning til just now.
halo was never supposed to be about paying more to win, or being able to unlock something that others cant and pwning them with it.
as long as ive played its always been about equal playing fields, teamwork, and being legitimately better than the other guy.
ehh sorry for ranting. that’s my two cents.
oh and to answer the original question, yes. you wont even be able to cash in the xp from the commendations you earn when you do get access to more specs. when they will give out the next one to the gen audience is anyone’s guess.
@ EcHo Wanna play sometime? looking for teammates, and we got the game on the same day, and we’re close to the same rank =P

i completely agree with philupmybucket, we all could learn a thing or two from him.

I’m an sr130 LE owner and I agree. LE stuff should be RL stuff/cosmetic. What they did is limit peoples progression who didnt buy the LE. 343 should of just unlocked all specializations for all players right from the start. Would of made alot more people happier, and there wouldn’t be this big mess with the email codes.
Exclusives. Sounds like such a delightful word doesn’t it? Reminds you of a super secret prize you get for being a good fan! Let’s take out the ‘sives’ and see what we get.
‘Exclu’. Interesting. Now lets add a ‘de’ to it along with a second ‘d’.
‘Excluded’. Doesn’t sound like a very nice word anymore now does it? Well that is what 343 has been doing along with many other game developers/publishers.
I love Halo 4 and 343 as much as the next guy, well, the next guy is probably a hater. So, the guy behind the next guy. But I absolutely despise exclusives. Yes, you’ll get more money with people buying the more expensive product, but you’ll be -Yoink!- off tons of customers in the long run. Like right now.
I already got my code on Nov. 30th. My deepest condolences to those who don’t have it yet. It’s just not right to do something like this.
Yeah, if you wanna buy one online they are very overpriced. I’m sure they’ll have an update in the next months that’ll grant everyone access. I guess you have to wait. Sucks, I know.
It is a shame i wont have the perks and stuff and i agree its a bit silly, but im just gonna have to deal and wait. Im still going to play regardless if i can get past 70, just always fun to get points you know, it makes ya feel like youre progressing.

Sure just add me Echo N9ne, always looking for people to play with.
