NOTE: These could only be obtained in MM if ur wondering!! That's the only way it would work.

I was thinking of BF2MC, and seeing as how they have really deficult medals and ribbons to obtain, why can't Halo 3 have that? In BF2MC they award you marine like medals and ribbons. Medals for difficult combat tasks, like 4 kills with one clip of sniper or 3 assualt rifle kills with one clip. Ribbons for participating in games, like 100 games played, 100 game victorious. Halo 3 should consider this idea for those who want harder tasks. And leave gamer points easy to get so anyone has the abillity to obtain them. Like BF2MC there should be a player history option when you click on them and see which Ribbons and Medals they have obtained. Spartans are in futuristic Navy/Army and they should earn and wear medals that don't appear in their gamerscore.

Of course leave the kill medals in multiplayer alone, such as running riot, double kill, ect. And add perminent ones that are really hard to get.

What would it take to get these medals?

For starters: 10 beatdowns in team slayer (no sword)
15 snipes in one slayer
4 snipe kills in one clip
20 vehicle kills in one match

Post some and make them hard but not impossible!!

X amount of Kills in one clip - Absolutely not.

Everything else - Sure.

How about these:

Bronze Star: Get 30 Kills in any multiplayer match.
Silver Star: Get 1000 Kills over any slayer gametype.
Colonial Cross: Get 0 Deaths in any multiplayer match (excluding Assault)
Medal of Honor: Get 10,000 Kills across all MP Gametypes.

that sounds cool but they gotta be really hard cause everyones gonna be playin Halo 3 FOREVER so itll be fun to be tryin to get em like a year after you start playin, instead of finishin em up in a day or so.

If Bungie does attempt this, they should make it tie in and be true to the story. (Elites and Brutes get different medals).

I don't think these need to be medals, they can just be XB360 Achievement points which work towards your gamerscore. For those who are unfamiliar, you get achievement points in most games for doing simple things like beating a single player level or more difficult things like getting 500 headshots, playing for 8 hours or becoming the top-ranked player on the leaderboard.

I think the games that have just single player achievements are more fun.
I wouldn't really want Halo 3 to have a lot of Multiplayer achievements.
For Instance.
I would hate to be forced to get a killamanjaro in Matchmaking.
And It would be lame if you could get Multiplayer achievements in custom games.

Yeah okay, I see what ur talking about. NOT. Ranks are the only things that brought cheaters. The fact that good ideas are usually rejected by people because of cheaters is stupid. You gave alot thought to ur post. Agn NOT.

Acheivements on XBOX 360 is basically Bill Gates little trick to get people hooked on his system. People would probably sell there sister to buy a stupid game just to get gamerpoints. All they tell is how much you played video games in ur life. If you played BF2MC, u know what I'm talking about would love idea, if not you'll probably question it because you never seen it.
