I'm pumped for this Halo collection. My dumb ass owns every halo game except ODST and I've only played half the campaign on Halo (a game I own twice if you count Anniversary and the original).

Since all these games are in HD I'm gonna marathon them.

Additionally, we built Halo: The Master Chief Collections’ ranking system to emulate the exact Halo 2-style leveling, but it is a system that has been built from the ground up. This is the first time we’ve built a Matchmaking and ranking system that will work across multiple games, and as a result, we’ll be rolling out ranking for each playlist post-launch, and will launch with one ranked playlist, Team Halo 2: Anniversary. As time goes on, we’ll be rolling out the official ranked version for each ranked playlist. For example, the Halo 3 and Halo 4 playlists will not be ranked immediately at launch (however, they will still have skill matchmaking underneath to ensure balanced matches), but will each receive ranked play post-launch. As this is a new system custom built for this game, we do expect some players to make every effort to exploit the system, and will be agile in issuing fixes and updates. Additionally, if needed, we will reset ranks after launch to ensure that all player’s ranks are fair, consistent, and accurate. We’ll provide more details on ranking and the playlist ranking rollout in the near future.

So this mean in the main MP menu, Team H2:A Slayer will be the only one for now with a ranking system at launch?? Basically the number next to my name will be 0-1(:sadbron:) for a while right?

The playlists in this screen
TMCC-UI-Multiplayer-Ranking-Pick-A-Fight.jpg

are the only playlists that have matchmaking right??

I'm assuming the regular playlists from each game would be custom game playlists?

i'm really tight about H2A being the only ranked playlist at launch...because classic Halo 2 (in team hardcore) is what i'm really gonna spend time with for 4v4 instead of H2A....smh...they better not take months like they did with implementing a rank system in h4

@Fatboi1 the playlists will change over time

and regarding the rank you see on the main menu...this will only show the highest rank you have attained so far...so if you don't play the H2A on launch then you wont have a rank....if you play it you will have your highest rank show up on the main menu...and when other playlists are ranked, whichever one becomes your highest rank it will replace the number on the main menu...
