Few months? Lol I'm pretty sure it's this month, and in the Bungie Update they said there was going to be a HUGE Matchmaking update in September and this isn't it, so this most likely is coming out this month.

Alright then.
It'd be fun to have several different ranks in different playlists.

__________________

I can think of my ranked ones...

1 commander
1 major
couple of sergants
maybe a lieutenant
couple of apprentices

How do you know how much XP you need for each rank already? Unless it's the same as it is now .. but that would be a ton of XP for each playlist leaving your total with thousands, lol.

I was going by skill level in each playlist... (I'm just guessin)

I am wondering as well how much experience it will take to gain the general military rank per each hopper. Currently to reach General you must be a numeric rank of 50 and have 5000 experience. I doubt that I am interested in getting 5000 EXP per hopper. Maybe one. Just maybe. I suppose that it will be much less than that amount. I am hopeful that they will include EXP already earned and not make us start from scratch.

I have been working like mad to get to Brigadier General. This update is going to hose me in that regard by preventing anyone from getting that.

Nope Bungie stated that you will have a fresh start in each playlist. You will be an apprentice in every playlist but you will still have your rank (number). And you only need 600exp to get to general

I didn't say thats how much it will be with the new ranks but thats how much you need right now

? No, you need 5,000 EXP to be a General right now.

*EDIT* ... to be a General Grade 4.

600 per hopper is going to be difficult for a lot of people. The idea is that this will reinvigorate the game and ensure that many more people are playing it for longer. I think that a number of people are going to be upset and will stop playing and all that will be left are the hardcore players (not the gametype but the diehard fans) so that every round you can expect to be playing teams of 45+ ranked players.
