Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

But not anything necessary, like a ranking system?

Did they find that it was that necessary to only lightly amuse children under the age of 7?

Because art designs are easier to implement into a game then an entire MM system?

They could of only made it viewable on Bungie.net stats.

Assuming most casuals don't check stats on B.net, it might have worked.

You're right, the rank system sucks, but I like the armory, It appeals to the RPG crowd who likes decent character customization. I'd rather have reach's armory than halo 2's colors and emblem only customization.

They type in their GT in the top right corner :3? Maybe I misunderstood what you were trying to say.

Then if they knew they had to go to B.Net to see their stats, they probably would have, if they cared enough. Casual players who "don't like to be told they're bad", usually wouldn't have.


Either way, the feelings of a player shouldn't decide a role in whether or not to implement a method to sort players based on skill. It's been an essential part of MM.

I'm listeni- Oh wait I don't give a -blam!- what you have to say.

I haven't changed a single thing on my armour since I got this game. Everything is still default. Armour customisation doesn't interest me in the slightest.

You wear default armor; therefore, you must be a noob.

What I was saying is actually a quote from Urk on the lack of a 1-50 in Halo: Reach.

This, basically.

Oh, not Urk!

It's safe...
What I said before holds true.

It'd be stupid to take a players emotional feelings into consideration when deciding whether or not to implement a system that's been vitally important to Halo since it was first released on XBL.

The inclusion of the armory has no bearing on the inclusion of 1-50. This thread is just a disguised version of "bring back 1-50" that no one has ever read before.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

An art team had nothing to do while a programming team did, maybe?

"People don't enjoy the game telling them they are bad."

yet they include peoples overall K/D ratio in the game?
that leads to so much trash talk in pregame lobbies.
