I do like this.
While I'm a decent player I'm not amazing so while I may have a ton of wins they wern't in a row and I don't level up. This new system will at least be game type specific.
1 thing I'd beg they change is have it factor our current games won & lost into these new ranks to show all of our current progress.
It can't be that hard to do.

If you think its cool then you got issues....The update isnt good for people who are good who have Generals who like to show people ...Why should the Generals suffer? arent they the first ones who bought Halo 3? Shouldent they be respected for being on the game for so long? Why ruin a fun game?..Halo 3 was fun the way it was nothing needed to be added or removed...Yes you can add more achievements fix some of the maps.. do what ever you like but why change the ranks? everyone loved it the way it was so stop thinking your cool and commenting on peoples thoughts


Since when are generals the only ones to have been playing Halo 3 since launch? Check my service record you nub. You also apparently haven't heard the term "booster". -.-

I read the lists of nay-sayers and have this to retort. Bungie has a great game. If you don't like it....stop playing, leave your mother's basement and find a girlfriend to occupy your time (girls are the ones that look like us, but are more "bumpy"). Few game developers have the ability to create a game so EPIC that it entices people for over a year. Most games are lucky if they get a few weeks much less months. Bungie continually finds new and creative ways to take the old and twist it into something new. THANK YOU! I look forward to more updates, game packs, game and map varients, and whatever Bungie chooses to throw my way. I may not be the highest rank, but I don't really want to be. Rank is about ego, and I don't enjoy ego. I just want a fun game to sit down and play with my friends (Friends are people who like you and want to actually hang out with you in more than one specific social venue, not some kid who you met on XBL that plays really well.)

What's being done about this?"

People who don't know how to play are given such an edge now that it's ridiculous.


Dude, those are the GOOD PLAYERS and we're obviously "nubs*" or "scrubs" (God I hate that word so much... only a certain type of player uses it... and it's not one you want to hang around) or something... oh, wait... huh.

You know what I'm more concerned about some pretend rank on the Internet? The people who you have to mute within 3 seconds of hearing them. I'm not talking about children (who shouldn't be on anyway) but man-children whose parents didn't raise them to do anything in life but suck. I don't care about your e-peen, dude. Let's just play some Halo, and not take anything too personally.

Forever a fan of Halo when Bungie was in charge.

can anyone answer this for me, what are the exp requirements for a "general" and Lieutenant" in a playlist, because i notice that as i was pplaying and getting exp in DLC FFA playlist, you rank up in less exp then you would normally

EDIT: i have 7 exp in DLC FFA and i have the symbol that looks like corporal which normally required 10 exp

"Seems to me you should spend less time on that article and more time working on that novel you've been working on!!!"

So far nobody on this page, with the exclusion of Sol Knightt (and the people below trunkkylefields,edited*), has said anything that made any sense. And I'm a little confused about the achievement where you have to have 7 exp on the 7th of a month when you play a game of halo. Wouldn't that discourage some people not to play and only get on to play on the 7th of the month to play? Is it possible to never get this achievement if you have over 7 exp in each category? Maybe I'm making this more complicated than it is.

Got to love the gaming industry

I think its just get 7exp points on the 7th, not in one playlist etc. Just 7exp aka 7 matches on the 7th I think?

6 new maps!

if you read the acheivements fully, the ones you cannot currently get are for Mythic maps..

here are some map based ones..

Hammer Time 25
On Assembly, get 5 Hammer kills during any ranked or social match.
Pull 25
On Citadel, get a Shotgun Spree during any ranked or social match.
Blades of Fury 25
On Heretic, get a Sword Spree during any ranked or social match.
Ghost Patrol 25
On Longshore, get 3 kills with a Ghost during any ranked or social match.
Post Mortem 25
On Orbital, get 2 Death From the Grave medals during any ranked or social match.

Thats 5 of the maps, theres acheievments for finding skulls on these maps too, aswell as on a map called Sandbox (full map maker? :P)

Assembly, Citadel, Heretic, Longshore, Orbital, and Sanbox, the mythic map pack..
