Subject: Online Credit Limit Reached.

I believe that the cap is one day. People who credit farm aren't even playing the game to its full potential. The game is amazing. don't worry about the cap.

Yea dude. Your only allowed to earn 60,000 credits per day, and that's because of the cap.
Posted by: Macaroon
I assume this means I cant earn anymore credits for a certain amount of time?
Does anyone know how long.
Yes I am aware its because ive been playing a LOT of Gruntpocalypse today. I was playing MM with some friends earlier but they all went offline so I just decided to go for Captain (evidently this means I earned too much too fast).
Im not really bothered at the cap, Id just like to know how long I have to wait.
15 minutes?
A few days?
A week?

Thanks for any help.

60,000 cR...
This is only daily and no such thing as a weekly cap. Also, any commendations or challenges earned after the cR limit are nullified, so dont waste your gold an onyx commendations! It was created so u can only go up *at most* 2 grades in a rank that is at least Warrant Officer. I had a friend who hit the daily cap starting at the beginning of grade 3 warrant officer to captain and he was really close to getting captain. That takes 66000 cR in itself. I've pulled all day reach days with friends and i've never managed to hit the cap myself. Only people who get alot of challengee and high commendations completed OR gruntapocalypse nerds. So yeh that answers about 9,826,766,980 peoples questions about it. So my advice would be to forge it up or just play the rest of the time for fun only.

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.


I know no body wants to hear this but it all comes down to money. to keep people laying the game longer they instill level and Cr caps which they slowly release in updates. The more people have to play to level up the longer they'll keep the game.

And for all you Call of Duty MW2 fans thats where infinity ward messed up. They lost $28 Million within a month of release because everyone decided to boost up to 10th Prestige and then got over it. I personally love CoD just as much as halo and have nothing against it. But the way IW is letting its servers get overrun by boosters and modders is why i dont play anymore. Bungie may be pissing off boosters but the majority of people never hit that cap and if u do then there may be a problem with your social life.(or lack thereof)

  • 09.29.2010 4:24 AM PDT

actually i read on bungie that its only for 24 hours.

This. Frankly, I can't play MW2 without 10 messages asking for me to join their 10th prestige party for Microsoft points.

What the muzz? The game went from being fun to trying to avoid those who abuse the system. Every game will have them, I know. But if Bungie can keep people from monetizing their progression system, more power to them.

The sentence below is false.
The sentence above is true.

Yeah, I assume that the cap resets after 24 hours. I've never hit the cap, so I'm not 100% certain.

  • 09.29.2010 9:55 AM PDT

I'm guessing that it doesn't want people hacking for Credits so it makes it so there is a limit you can earn in a certain amount of time and you also might be getting inspected for legit games.

Words of wisdom all around, but no one ever seems to listen. The words are all around but the words are only sound. But nobody seems to listen. Instead they'll say, "Well how could we of known?" I'll tell em, "It's really not so hard to tell. keep adding stones, and the water gets lost in the well."

Is the cap based on on a personal 24 hour reset? By which I mean, is there a literal time where its reset, or 24 hours from when we cap?

  • 09.29.2010 4:36 PM PDT

My guess on the time of reset is the same time the challenges reset, but that's pure speculation. I'm east coast (PA) and challenges reset at 6 am. I believe Bungie is west coast, so they made the reset at 3 am their time. (P.S. my knowledge of time zones could be off, feel free to correct me.)

To the people comparing this to prestiging: The fun part is in finding the people who boosted to a ridiculous degree and seeing how much they suck when you kick their arse. I'll admit, I've done some campaign farming, but not to a great degree (you can check my stats if you don't belive me.) When I'm getting close to ranking up, but say it's late and I'm falling asleep, or I'm getting frustrated with matchmaking (yeah, I'm mediocre, what of it), I'll play some campaign and reset check points where I can get headshots or grenade kills or something, or even I'll practice skills I might be lacking on like getting a running headshot on a jackal from a certain distance or grenade placement and timing... or I'll just switch over to score attack for a little while. Basically, I'll keep doing something productive while taking a break from the frontlines.

Just like prestige boosting, it affects nothing but aesthetics. I've never joined a 10th prestige lobby. Every invite I get for one, I file a complaint for system tampering, since it is technically abusing a glitch in the system. This is slightly different though, because it's not a glitch. In fact, Bungie is fully aware of it, thus the cap. Checkpoint resetting has been in every Halo game thus far, so why would they change the system now? But they added the credit system too and made ways for people to get credits via campaign. To avoid it getting out of hand though, the cap was put into place as a safety mechanism. Then again, I'm probably explaining things that everyone's already figured, but I like to put things in a consice manner.

It's somewhere between 30k and 45k because I just capped out today.

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,

where is my stake?

Les crédits sont reliés directement à l'XP, c'est la raison dont les gens essaient de "cultiver" ceux-ci. Donc une limite sur les crédits = une limite sur l'expérience.

Mon plaisir!

Je n'doute aucunement votre capacité de parler en français, mais vous devriez considérer des classes de grammaires :P

Do u no how long u are banned from reseting challenges? I didn't no it will ban me :(

  • 10.01.2010 6:54 PM PDT

How long was ur ban in the end? ( DONE THE SAME) ????

  • 10.02.2010 7:47 AM PDT

Lol I just reached the limit. Me and my friend both did. Its just Bungie's way of saying that we who reach the limit are pro's who love doming grunts.

  • 10.02.2010 12:47 PM PDT

Theres a credit limit daily and monthly so if u get a credit limit u have 2 wait a day. it gives bungie a red flag about you and then your on watch. monthly is the same too. if u get too much in a month its most likely a ban for a month.

that happened to me too, you have to wait til 6:00 eastern standard time, in other words wen the challenges get updated.

P.S. the cap is 80,000 per day i think.
