Spartan Points & Exchange Introduced

[Accessing]

 

343 Industries is introducing the Spartan Points and The Exchange systems from the Master Chief Collection into Halo Infinite. While it is not a 1:1 copy and past its a welcomed update and sure needs tuning from what has been introduced so far! 

Customizing your personal Spartan has long been a core component of Halo Infinite, and as we look ahead to our next update, we’re excited to share details of a brand-new system that will give players more agency over earned customization content.

Over the years since launch, we’ve heard feedback around wanting additional avenues to earn customization content and a desire for ways to acquire older content that is no longer actively available in the game. With next week’s update, Halo Infinite will be adding two new features to directly address this player feedback: “Spartan Points” and “The Exchange.”

Players of Halo: The Master Chief Collection probably recognize both of these terms for good reason—they are both based on what’s currently available in MCC today. “The Exchange” is a new feature that you’ll find within Halo Infinite’s Shop that offers customization content in exchange for “Spartan Points.”

The primary focus of The Exchange is offering access to previously released free content that players may have originally missed out on. For example, rewards that were originally tied to Halo Infinite’s free Event tracks or a special limited time login bonus, or even a past Twitch drop or partner promotional item are all fair game for The Exchange.

Already KevinCoolx mentions some of the crazy numbers behind the introduction of the Spartan Points and how to unlock things. 

Max Spartan Points you can earn in a month is 26,000 SP. Complete 1 game every day - 7k Complete every weekly - 4k Complete Operation Pass - 15k Exchange will refresh every 4-6 weeks with operation updates. You can only earn the Xanadu coating IF Banished Honor lasts 6 weeks. The exchange was designed for you to unlock 1 or 2 items per operation. I'm sure there will be repeated items and points can build up over time. To start the point costs are every high.

I love how they added the Spartan points into Halo Infinite. It reminds me of how they did the Halo 5 Requisition points and so on. However, them putting 30,000 SP for an armor coating has to be a mistake on their part because almost nobody is going to work for that coating nor is it going to be possible (lest what was said earlier). 

Future implications and updates for this exchange would be awesome. Nonetheless, it first coming here, I'm not surprised that things are a bit overpriced and lengthy to complete.

Congrats on 343 listening to their community!
