In a tweet on February 16, the officialHalo account announcedthey have been monitoring player ranks in the mode and will be adjusting accordingly.
They said starting onFebruary 22,they will “roll out updates to our current system and reset CSR ranks.”
The biggest thing they mentioned highlighted that the current system was placing players too high. So, they will be hard resetting everyone’s CSR to help put people in their proper tier.
Halo is also making it that you will earn more skill rating after each match. They believe this will make the climb through each division easier for Spartans.
In the current system, you could only place as high as Diamond 1. However, the best of the best will be able to place in Diamond 5 when this update goes live.
This has been one of the most requested things in the Halo Infinite community. The team is hoping that this will bring players back to the game and they can enjoy ranked matchmaking.
