What if, instead of having medal, there were 'titles'. They'd be comical and serious. This is perfected in the SW: Battlefront series. It's fun, more interesting than a small circle, and also causes less ugly competiting or bragging, which leads to less cheating (also, no ranks would do eliminate cheating...)


Some examples from Battlefront are:


Public Enemy: Most Valuable player (Who ever got the mosts points, but in Halo this would refer to flag scores, hill time, etc.)
Bantha Fodder : (worst player)
Dead Eye: (most headshots)


Anyway, of course Bungie would need to think up their own titles, and their reasonings for each one, but it would be a refreshing change from the medals which are becoming quite bland.

I like halo's medals and battlefront's, but maybe you could incorporate both into the game, and not to get off topic, but timesplitters future perfect has funny titles too.

Oh stop your pointless flaming, if you give no reason to your opinion. Your opinion means NOTHING.

I think bungie should just make more medals, maybe some humorous ones. But the rank thing just doesn't feel like halo to me.

Anyway, I'm just suggesting it, not complaining about the current system. However, the less competitive bungie makes MP, the less cheating there will be, take Halo PC as an example, no ranks, and hardly anyone cheats!

Like GoldenEye 64. Nah... it's too late to go doing that now. It wouldn't be right.

im gonna have to disagree with you papa john because battlefront is a totally different game, and its medal system suits it because when you die you respawn, so you can get the medals again, as apposed to halo where when you die you don't respawn you go back to the last checkpoint and pretend the whole thing never, happend. And if there was a system like that it would kinda mes up the game because in the real world (which halo is kinda based on we just might find other inteligeant life that is hostile), anyway the point is if halo had a beam medals to the player system it would probably ruin it...maybe i never played with a medal system such as this on halo.i mean killtacular and such i have played but recieving medals that give you power ups meh... perhaps.

I'd say to have both. That way ou would know both if you, say, got the most hijacks, and if you hijacked anyone at all even if you didnt win. After all, I know we al love seeing the words.

TRIPLE KILL, followed by the little medal.

What I'd really l;ike to see is the option of turning on the medal system during teh campaign. Then after fighting our way out of an ambush, youd be rewarded with the text

KILLIMANJARO, and hearing the MC saying UNFREAKING BELIEVEABLE.
