this makes me wonder why 343i was originally planning on gradually releasing the specializations over time (based on the community’s overall progress) when everyone would probably reach SR-70 in like a week.
It won’t make much of a difference, we will still rank up just as fast, it’s like saying everyone should be reset when someone new buys the game months later.
343 made it really easy to rank up, I hope they do something about it.
Even if everyone is an SR130 by the end of the week, it shouldn’t mean playing it becomes boring. It took too long to rank up in Reach (for the casual players, not the “pr0s”).

Longevity = 0??? Sigh I miss the days when people played video games because they were fun, rather than play them just to complete ranks and be done.
Maybe that exp rate is for the reviewers, so that they can get to experience the majority of the game without needing to play it for weeks. Maybe if or when they reset the game, at the same time they severaly decrease the rate.

not totally, imagine if it took months get to the point where you complete a specialization. you unlock armor mods that affect your gameplay so it can’t take as long as reach to get to that point. granted, i still think it’s a little bit too fast.

I’m a long term member on this forum, i’ve been around since before the e3 2011 trailer and i’ve probably been one of the most defensive and supportive people towards 343 on this forum. That is a completely ignorant statement.
And this is a completely terrible decision.
