Subject: Online Credit Limit Reached.

I'm not sure on it being that high for me. I don't think I even got 100,000 credits and it capped me. Yeah I played a lot of gruntpocolypse but I enjoy playing that playlist, it's fun. I've still been playing all day for commendations but it still would have been nice to be getting credits as well. Bungie may not realize it but they are putting a limit to the legit players and not just the boosters.

To all the people complaining about the Credit Capping System, I say to you: WTF?

To reach that limit you'd have to play a lot, and I mean a flippin' lot of Halo to get there.
I've played this game a fair bit, and combined I've only got about 80,00 credits - that's come from almost a week of playing it.

Secondly, it's pretty much necessary to stop people from flying up the ranks at break neck speeds and lolapaloozing around over night just raking in the goodies.

C'mon now. Maturity?

There is no limit what it i saying is that you have made to much credits from that certan playlist. If you were to play team slayer you would earn more. If you play offline you will stop getting credits after you get so many.

"WE TOOK THE TIME TO LOOK THIS GLITCH UP ON YOUTUBE AND DO IT AND ITS YOUR FAULT FOR RELEASING THE GAME WITH THIS GLITCH STILL IN SIDE." Omg epic fail. Bungie keep it up this its fun to watch :D

Hello friends,

The Online Credit Limit is a daily cap on Credit earn - it does reset so come tomorrow you can continue your earnapalooza.

We've seen other systems come and go where rampant abuse of progression systems has devalued the online ecosystem and the Online Credit Limit is just one of many countermeasures against these activities.

Actually playing your favorite gametype or checkpoint in Reach isn't going to get you banned, but it may get you to the cap faster.

Thanks,

there is not point in saying hey i got a 40- HIGH RANK MEANS NOTHING, it means you either bridged host or cheated...and the skillfull player like myself have 27s cause of cheating.

Maturity? Lol, If someone wants to sit on there ass all day and play Halo, then they should have the right to do that. Do you honestly care if someone has a higher rank or better armor than you? That's what I would call a lack of maturity...

And you really don't have to play that much. I played a little less than 4 hours of Gruntpocalypse today, plus some challenges and commendations, and I got to the credit limit. It's just 50,000 or 60,000 I believe, but definitely not 100,000.

there is a daily limit to help keep abusers to a minimal.

Go outside for a few hours.

As for getting Lt.Colonel grade 3 and no more-

Go get a lot of sun and relax.

When the level cap is raised, more credits will be permitted, this is to prevent someone from farming say 5,000,000 and being Max rank as soon as the next ranks hit.

The point is...should you care? Should Bungie (or anyone) care if someone gets to a high rank extremely quickly. It doesn't affect gameplay, it doesn't affect other players, the only thing it does it put a little symbol next to someones name.

Plus, the vast majority of players aren't going to play Halo 8 hours a day, or even an hour a day. This is affecting a tiny minority of players therefore it is almost pointless.

^^ 100% agree. And people wonder why cod dominates halo

  • 09.26.2010 4:43 AM PDT

If you have time to even get 50k xp a day then your parent's don't care about your health.

  • 09.26.2010 5:00 AM PDT

I reached the limit once this past week and it was 60k for me, I usually only get around 20k a day from mm, but I decided to do some gruntpocalypse that day.

[Edited on 09.26.2010 6:49 AM PDT]

  • 09.26.2010 6:50 AM PDT

So u can do the oni base credit boost everyday and hit the cap everyday and nothing will happen besides the cap?

i know it sucks i was also capped playing gruntpocolyps but you have to remember that bungie made this game not so people could get credits and rank up thats just a feature, the real point id to play the game and have fun doing it.

Edit: Nevermind, my question's been asked already.

But OP, how many credits did you actually manage to get?

184,000 or so. I havent really spent any, I was saving for the ODST pads and Scout helmet. Now ive spent some on the blue visor and a few other bits and bobs, but I still have enough for my perms :)


I Got the game last sunday around 4ish. i have 185245 cR And i really wanna get captain before my friend does-do you think ill get capped for this?
