Pls consider to do it like Halo MCC, where you can choose wich Battlepass you want to do, instead of putting it into Cargo Crates and Overclocks.

Cargo Crates are already too packed with Things, thats its nearly impossible for a normal Player to get what he wants from it.

Overclocks are Timegated, so it would be even worse then Cargo Crates.

Just let us progress the Battlepass we want, like Halo MCC.

It will just further increase the Numbers of Players that get annoyed by so much RNG that they either quit or Edit their Savefile (wich makes Progression useless).

RNG can be good, but sometimes its just waaaay too much.

I have nearly 600 Hours and still didnt got the Skin i want so badly from a Cargo Crate.

That’s not possible, as the Seasons are themed.

I know, but its not like it is bound to Content that just exists in this Season.

Missions and Challenges (besides the Caretaker One) would be still possible.

But you don’t know how much will potentially change from Season to Season. The Seasons are our window to add some themed story, and some things will change between them, making an archive of battle passes harder to do. So, while the MCC approach is really cool, we’ve decided not to do it like that.

What he's basically asking for, is to go back to the prior themed season and progress that season. Halo MCC has that system in place, as its Battle Passes are also free and themed to the season (Season 8 is historical, Season 7 is Elite-themed, etcetera)

However

The key difference that u/shy-but-hopeful isn't considering, is that Halo MCC's Season Points are earned exclusively from Challenges (and rank to 100). Scrip for this season is earned from events specific to this season (as well as the Pass Progression itself). GSG would need to not only work around the UI to present multiple seasons, but develop new methods of delivering Scrip beyond the ones for the specific season.

I'm no Dwarveloper, but those are the issues I can see from my armchair.

That’s pretty much the deal, yes.

Some class has got to be getting a melee weapon for an alternate second and I hope it's the driller. With like, a hammer.

No melee. The game is built around shooting, not bonking.
