    I think you have to start again on at least Normal skill level. You can quit & save after you pick the skull up though.

      Yes you do.

        Yeah most skulls are pretty much impossible to find just by looking around, not to mention the IWHBYD skull which is downright impossible. So for anyone thinking about finding them without a guide I would say just give in and look it up.

        The skulls themselves are brilliant though, especially the ones on the bottom row, I play all my campaign games like this:


        - IWHBYD skull for some comedy dialogue moments
        - Catch skull + Cowbell skull for lot's of big explosions
        - Grunt birthday party skull for the cheering and confetti
        And depending on how masochistic I'm feeling also the Iron and Thunderstorm skull

          Could someone please explain to me how the multiplayer experience system works?

            Every time you win a matchmade game, ranked or social you get 1 XP point.

              Was playing some LAN games last night but couldn't see any options to have checkpoint racing. Have they removed this feature or can I just not find it?

                Is there any where in game that tell you how close you are to levelling up your skill. Used to get a bar on bungie.net for that in 2 !

                Think the negative XP is a little harsh. I understand and agree that it needs to be there, but I think you should be excused a drop out in 1 in every 10 games or something, as we all have the odd need to get off quick occasionally.

                Seemed to be a man possessed on this last night, went 19/10 30/11 and 21/1 in kill/deaths in the 3 team slayer games I played and got me first Running Riot which was nice. I am still playing at the low skill levels though, which might explain it

                  I'm sure there's a little more to it than that, I've ranked up after a few games from which my team have lost.

                  You don't need to be first on the leaderboard for exp, that much I do know.

                    You get this ...

                      To get XP you have to play matchmaking either ranked or social. The team games require you to win to get 1xp or be in the top half if there are more than 3 teams (multi team)

                      The top half gets you 1xp in single player modes (top 3)

                        edit : Tis weird I got to 7xp last night and ranked up, but this morning I've had -1 added to my account which has dropped me back. That -1 is for the only drop out I've done so far which was 2 nights ago. The whole system seems to be lagging at different points atm !

                          You can level up via Skill as well, I think. You can effectively "jump" to Field Promotions this way.

                            Maybe they do checks to ensure you weren't disconnected for another reason before penalising you although I have to admit given the traffic logistically that'd probably be impossible.

                              It warns you when you pause and quite out that you will get penalised, I was expecting it tbh, just did not think it would take 2 days ! Sure it's just taking a while for everything to settle down, for a system to go from zero to millions of games over night, must be pretty taxing !

                                I know - without rubbing it in it was incredible to see the world map and populations prior to launch on the weekend/Monday (there was like 800 people online) and then see it rocket to half a million on the Wednesday
