The Absolute FASTEST WAY TO GAIN EXPERIENCE In Halo 4

So there's a lot of bullshit out right now about how to level fast in Halo 4.  Some if it involves cheating with extra controllers logged into your xbox during multiplayer, some if it involves stupid tactics like playing Kind of the Hill games and just letting someone win quickly and farming the match bonus, and some involve just AFKing during matches after getting a kill.

It's all dogshit.  The most I've ever gotten from ANY matchmaking game was 4100, and that was when I went on a rampage with a banshee in a big team battle and racked up over 40 kills.  In a row.

If you want to level quickly, and you are playing ANY MATCHMAKING GAME WHAT SO EVER, you are doing it wrong and leveling slower then you could be.

You need to be playing spartan ops - NOT WITH FRIENDS, but through the solo "Find Game" option in the spartan ops interface. (UPDATE - This will work on ANY mission, as long as you get 11 or more kills, and the mission duration is longer than 8 minutes and 30 seconds).

You need to be active and actually play to get the max bonus, which is a whopping 5950 experience. You need more than 30 kills (which is very easy to do if you are half decent at Halo) in order to get that bonus, otherwise you'll get somewhere around 5k.

*NOTE:  Spartan Ops is miserably laggy, you can experience up to a full second delay.  Stick with it, you'll adjust to the lag and be just fine after the first few kills.

If you're terrible and somehow manage to kill less than 10 enemies, you'll get around 3k, which is still SIGNIFICANTLY more than you're probably getting in any matchmaking game, unless you're awesome and getting 30+ kills a match.

If you AFK, you get nothing, something like 700xp for completing the match.  Report people that do this - it will get them banned and everyone will be better off for it.

So again, Spartan Ops, Matchmaking, 11 or more kills, 8 minute 30 second duration = 5950xp

Absolutely nothing else is faster.  If someone tells you they found something better, demand a screen shot before you go waste your time, because they're wrong.

No go level to 50 and unlock those specs!
