I Like your idea.. I am halo fan from CE days and I can appreciate the HALO 2/3 ranks based on Wins/losses which we will have soon if you read your updates. But as I do agree I want to see my freinds in my lobby with out clicking on the "X Button" and I would like to see the Rank System have unique colors for every number you achive instead of the just plain blue numbers however, I dont agree with taking out perks it is flawless in that aspect, keep in mind the game has "Evolved" with technology. HALO 4 does have a MLG feel to it like HALO 2 did, lets see for the pro players like me how it impacts on a MLG level. Remember all HALO fans if this game does not impact on the MLG level it does not matter what the casual gamer thinks, it's the competitive halo fans the are the ones that makes the game popular forcing gaming analyst to recoginze what halo 4 has done or should it be awared with a Medal and should it be part of this years MLG tourny or not make it like HALO REACH did. There are alot of hudge updates comming that will drasticly change the out look on that competitive nature hope you true die hard halo fans are ready for it...
P.S The Maps need some work.
