How to Get Credits Faster for Halo Reach

Released in September 2010, "Halo: Reach" is the fourth iteration of the Xbox 360's best-selling "Halo" franchise. While the game features an expansive single-player quest, one of the more challenging aspects of the "Reach" involves increasing your rank in the online multiplayer mode through the accumulation of credits. While it only takes 7,500 credits to obtain your first "Private" status, reaching the ultimate "Inheritor" rank comes at a price of 20 million credits. Participating in any campaign or online match will earn you credits toward this goal, however, there's an efficient way to increase your rank more quickly.
