Okay folks, if you haven’t already figured out this one, then sit back for a second and get ready to be amazed…No? Okay well then peer at the screen and get ready to say, “huh, cool.”<\/p>\n
The best usage of your double XP matches is in Spartan Ops. Now I’m NOT talking about just playing a chapter, though that will net you close to 6,000 XP. Nope, instead be sure to pick the second tab to find a game. Here you can pick form any of the 5 current weekly chapters so no worries about which mission you’ll be put into.<\/p>\n
From there you’ll be matched up with other players. Now of course you can bring your friends into this as well if you don’t want to be matched up with randoms. Point is, using the “find a game” tab acts like matchmaking, but gives you more credits than a normal War Games match. You’ll earn about 5,000-6,000XP up front, PLUS that much again in double XP! Also, if you happen to have the Pioneer mod on you’ll earn an additional 1,000 or so XP. So yeah, I’ll take 13,000XP for a 8-12 minute mission in Spartan Ops any day over the 5,000 or so in War games.<\/p>\n
So some of you may be saying, “but I like War Games,” or “I don’t like Spartan Ops.” (To the second one I’ll say shame on you, LOL. Play as you want of course. This is really for those looking to maximizing their double XP codes\/matches. Spartan Ops matchmaking is the BEST way to do that.<\/p>\n
Personally, I LOVE Spartan Ops. I play it over and over again. I love the challenge of crap tons of enemies at once. As well, I am one who likes to get 100% commendations. I was just a wee bit shy of that in Reach hitting 97%. So that’s my goal this time around at least 97% before Halo 5 hits. You WON’T get that unless you play a lot of Spartan Ops as well as War Games.<\/p>\n
Have fun, and I’ll see you on the battlefield!
