I've wasted DAYS of my life trying to get Captain from Grade 3 warrant officer, I'm just wondering, did anyone else find it a long wait? Edit: No longer really cares to me, I got it and 2 achievements (complete all daily challenges and reach Captain, the Zealot armor looks good on me ^_^
I think it's safe to say I will never reach that level unless the cR for forge/customs gets ramped up massively. When I passed Warrant Officer it went from 60 up to 70/game, which is laughable.
For some reason it seemed like it took a while for me to get to captain, but now it seems way easier for some reason.
Someone should post the point increase for Forge with the ranks. I know right now at Lt Colonel I am getting only 80 points.
The fastest way to rank up "legitly" is completing challenges and commendations. This really means playing all sorts of gametypes. SWAT is good for the headshot commendation and maybe sidearm/precision weapon kills/assassinations, but not a whole lot else. The more of these types of kills you get, the less points you get for them. Without the commendations/challenges, I'm probably only getting about 200-300 credits a match. PS you get to Warrant Officer at 45,000 credits and captain at 210,000 credits. even if you're getting 1000 points a game, it's still over 150 games that have to be played. http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Rank_(Halo:_Reach)
Definitely not. Warrant Officer is too easy to pass. They should double the required credits, or maybe triple.
Because telling people your legitimate opinion on something on topic is trolling...Oh wait. Anyways, I think the ranks are pretty easy to get as long as you know what you're doing. Still, I wish they'd give you some kind of bonus for getting MVP in a game. Well, if they didn't get rid of MVP for some reason : /
