Subject: New way to display rank

Ok I just thought of an idea about how to display rank in matchmaking. I was thinking the more skill you got in ranked the more blood would appear on your armor (your enemie's blood of course) and experience would give dents, scratches and burn marks on your armor. It wouldn't show exactly what your rank was but you could tell who has a lot of skill and exp. and it would actually give you a reason to want to rank up past liutenant (me anyway).

Thats AN AWESOME idea... nothing shows experience and skill better than bumps/ bruses, scrathes/scrapes and blood...

the soldiers should look like they have bee through countless battles and stuff the longer they have been around and active...

So eventually all armor would be red? I like the idea of dents/scratches (i.e. Master Chief in Halo 3) but blood might be taking it a little far.

I was thinking more like small blood stains on the armor if you want to see an example type "sev" on google images. I was also thinking if you get more melee, headshots, body shots etc. it would appear there the most. Also if you kill elites you get purple blood and spartan red.

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

How tall do I weigh?

that would be sweet, but blood would be a little much.

My idea is disjplaying ACTUAL us army or usmc ranks and displaying them on the back of the helmet, or over the heart, something like that. i like the scratches idea but the blood is too much, you would get people that would have just way to much.

Ron Artest on personal goals left in the NBA.

Q:"NOW THAT YOU'VE WON A TITLE, DO YOU STILL HAVE ANY PERSONAL GOALS IN THE NBA?"

A:"I would love to get back to first-team All-Defense. I own defense. It's like my corporation. I'm the CEO and everyone else is just an employee. The fans and players know I belong. When you need a stop, who you going to call? Not the goddamn Ghostbusters, I'll tell you that. You call me."

I love the idea but there has to be a limit. 50's can't be looking drenched in blood - (that actually could look cool.) I think there should be an option to turn it on or off, as well. Or even give the ability to choose what affects, limiting the amount per rank (lower the rank, the less u can do.) Solid idea, though.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Optional = yes.
