Halo 4 is almost here, and 343 Industries just announced that a Competitive Skill Rank update will be introduced early next year.

According to a blog post on Halo Waypoint, the Competitive Skill Rank update will “measure your performance against other players in Halo 4 War Games and use this information to match you up against opponents of comparable skill ranks.”  Once the update hits in early 2013, the player profile section of Halo Waypoint will display a detailed Skilled Rank.

Competitive Skill Ranks will differ per game type, so your skill rank for CTF will not be the same as your rank for Slayer Pro, and so on.  Ranks will rise or fall depending on match results, and ranks will be based on a scale of 1-50.

As to whether or not players will start fresh when the update becomes available, 343’s blog post noted: “Matchmaking and hoppers will be tracking and analyzing data from Day 1, and when the final settings for CSR are in place, we’ll make the call on whether to use existing data as a baseline for your CSR, or to start everyone fresh in new playlists.”
