Hi friends, i havent been up-to-date with the Halo 4 scene and since Halo 4 is coming out in less than 2 weeks, I really want to know of Halo 4 will have the same ranking system as Halo 3. Honestly, the ranked system in Halo 3 was the main reason I loved and played Halo 3 so much and the lack of it in Halo Reach was the reason I hardly played it.

Spartans begin their career in the base SPARTAN-IV ranks. There are 50 ranks to work your way through, from SR-1 to SR-50, unlocking gameplay and visual customization items as you rank up.

To rank up, you need to earn XP. You earn XP by:


• Playing War Games (earn more for winning and high personal score)
• Playing Spartan Ops (earn more for higher difficulties)
• Completing each level of a Commendation
• Completing Challenges
• Using Forge


At each rank, you will earn one or more Spartan Points (SP). SP are used to purchase gameplay items for your personal loadouts. Once you purchase an item, it can be used in any of your loadouts.

The Spartan Point system is based around offering choice at each rank. The full suite of gameplay items is available for purchase by SR-26 but you won’t have enough SP to buy everything until SR-50. It’s up to you to decide the order in which you want to build up the arsenal for your Spartan-IV.

exactly the same as reach credits except you can buy stuff that actually does something

Fuck
so there's not a halo 2/3 ranking system?

Nope better off calling it COD type ranking....................

There is a more strict true skill ranking system however that is supposed to match you up with people based on your skill level.

yea i hated the COD type ranking in Halo Reach kinda killed the competitive incentive of playing like in Halo 3

Nope better off playing COD BAD OPS 2

This. I don't like it, but it'll be more accurate showing of skill than levels in h2/h3 showed.

Yes, your rank will determine how good you are, it's better than halo reach ranks for sure.
