change the ranking system so instead of having % you have to go up go up a number so say you get points for getting a kill or planting flag ect.(like call of duty). Because you never no how much to do to go up a % but if you had a certain number you would

I think that different parts of the Armour should be capable of color change. I'm not really digging the secondary color section as of now, so maybe individual sections can be changed to an extent. I also would like to see a wider range of colors. Maybe even more saturation.

I like the idea of credits but I dont understand how it decides how many you deserve. I won 3 games in a row and got less than 100 credits. However I lost the next game and got 600 credits and I had no special awards, plus I went negative. I dont really understand why this is happening becuase it seems to happen alot its like its better to loose than win.

Objectives need more credits given for them. I get stockpile A LOT and I'm good at it, but I only get like 100 credits from it roughly.

In the armory, the "new" tag should dissappear when I look at an item. Currently it forces me to purchase or attempt to purchase an item before the new flag dissappears. This could get annoying with additional unlockable armor permeatations.

Some of the subtle changes to your Helmets (e.g. Military Police torch on the helmet) cost an ridiculous amount of Credits for an very small change.

I also think you don't earn enough credits compared to how much an piece of armour costs. (I only earn 100-150 approx per game) Whilst other armours cost a lot of Cr. (One armour piece cost 20,000 Cr)

I also hope Emblems are incorporated into the Credits Economy to make the system have more of an purpose.

Can we have the announcer say HEADSHOT when we kill someone with a headshot?

I think it would be very entertaining.

Quit ban, how will I be able to PLAY now? Bloom on the reticles now too? Thats not skill. I can't show my fake skill level to everyone now either? I will never buy Reach..lol..yeah right, people like these should get over themselves.

Race mode is officially back...yeah baby, yeah!!! lol. Now they need to remove ability to assassinate people in Rocket Race and I will be 100% satisfied. :)
>> I love me some Rocket Race!!! <<

Not sure if I was just too excited and played to much Beta so quickly (which really isn't possible), but I maxed out my rank in a couple days. I know that Warrant Officer Grade 3 isn't the cap for the final game, but I would think that it is equivalent to being just below Lieutenant.

With the goal system, along with normal campaign, matchmaking, (and ?Firefight?) scoring, there is tons of ways to jump up even faster.

I am sure you could slow the process down to in the final game, but it seems rather fast paced the way it is now. Otherwise, everything else (not already mentioned in OP) seems to be a good new change for Halo.

Commendations are not in detail...and thats all I have to say about that.

When I first heard about the customization I tought you would be able to select much more parts of the body, like arms,hands,legs.
Not that what we already have is bad, I like it very much already even though it was not what i expected.

Credits is awesome btw, it will be very fun try to get all of the armors.

Ok i think that you should be able to have a bar for your commidations that goes up by % as well so we can check on the fly what we would need to get for that next level of commidation.

The credits are a little on the skimmpy side like 54 credits for winning a 1 flag game or 100 for getting team slayer win's with 15 kills.

MORE CREDITS IN GENERAL

Commendations on the website should have a progress bar along with a visual count, ex. 14/90

Armory, not sure if there are more upgrades in the full game but the selection is very limited atm.

I love halo i'm a huge fan i've read all 7 books and am on my 3rd time through them, i play cod to pass the time till reach comes out. I would fund the entire project if bungie would continue to make halo games even though i don't have that kind of money i would come up with it somehow ily bungie and halo !

MVP's should get extra, winning team should get a better reward best k/d, best spree, longest distance kill, highest altitude kill just ideas for extra credit

Hell's very own Super Soldier.

Change descriptions of the armors, it makes it sounds like they give you benefits such as extra speed and such.

Could also use more customization such as choosing colors for heads, shoulders etc. Maybe allow us to customize more such as our legs, arms or even guns :))

the commendation situation needs to be fixed. One match i go 24-7 with 15+ medals i get 157 credits, While my friend went 16-9 with like 10 medals (none to be proud of) and got a whopping 1,275 cR!!!

(not a rant btw just an information)

But anyways that needs fixed and also i would like to see a number under the medal just like halo 3 to see how many of those we have

the symbols that denote your rank (private, corporal, warrant) all look like pairs of whitey tighties.

I reiterate the change for the pitifuly low winning bonus and the fact that only finishing the game and medals have an effect on credits. The winning bonus doesn't even diserve to be counted

I menu should be available to show commendation progress, and how you get commendations so you know where you stand/what to do. I do like how it shows you in-game when you complete a commendation challenge/achievement. I think the main problem for the time being is not showing what these things truly are, even though getting them gives you so many credits!

This is one of the most pressing concerns for me. When the full game is released, people will be playing hard and earning credits fast. I hope to never see someone who has unlocked everything and is sitting on top of a mountain of credits.
Will credits be available for use on other features? Will you be able to update the armory with new armour permutations? And as a request, I'd like to see unlocks that cost upwards of one million credits. It sounds extreme, but it's easily do able and will allow players to set themselves goals MMO style. With the full game rewarding credits for campaign etc. and via challenges, people will be unlocking everything very quickly unless more expensive options are available.
