I'm sure they will be shown, Microsoft will want to have more competition to sell more games and to make you play on XBL for longer. If MS was caring about what effect it has on you to have a low level, there would'nt be the Gamerscore and Rep on the 360. And for the cheaters, they think their console is unhackable LMAO.

Having a rank makes it more competive. For those that don't like competition, go ahead and play training. There are about 12 matchmaking playlists, half are ranked, half not ranked. And for those that like competition, play ranked... it's not a hard concept.

The reason for the rank is not to show off, it represents a standard to your skill, so good people face good people, and bad face bad.

Hiding the ranks would go a long way towards reducing cheating and other lame behaviour.

Stat whores are the bane of online gaming.

Cheaters ruined Halo 2 on live. Playing high ranked games are a joke most of the time.

Of course ranks drive people to play Halo so its a difficult situation.

Ranks only side effect was that cheaters now had a better purpose than being griefers. Other than that, they are just fine and dandy.

actually... i think ranks should be hidden, and used only as a matchmaking item, only to make the best matches for players. No one should see their rank for any reason.

Just about every thing I post is my opinion and nothing more. Be subjective. Respect other's opinions. Try to understand other's point of view.

Rankings should be hidden. It would stop so much senseless stuff.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

I think there should be an option when you make your profile whether or not you can see ranks...maybe.

Obviously im by myself in this, but I like ranks, its what keeps me playing. To tell the truth I would have stopped playing Halo 2 a year ago if it didnt have ranks, and Bungie wants people to keep playing there game, so I voted Shown. *Puts on flame resistent suit*

Have ranks, but keep them hidden. It elimenates the possibility of cheaters (mostly) and allows people who are afraid to go into matchmaking from losing levels/getting modded to not be afraid. It makes the games much less tense, too.

Ranks should exist to match equally skilled players, but should be invisible to prevent cheating and bad sportsmanship competition.

Me too. However, ranks is what keeps lots of people on XBL Halo 2. I still will play it alot. Ranks won't affect my attendance on XBL.

My favorite 'Mech is the Mad Cat.
