Career milestones

The original Milestone page on Halo Waypoint circa 2009.

Career Milestones are the overall measure of participation and performance across the different Halo games on the Xbox 360.

Description

Milestones are reached by attaining a certain level of Halo gamerscore. When designated Halo gamerpoint levels are reached, new Milestones are earned and awarded in the Career section. Players begin at Milestone 1. As new Halo achievements are earned players level up their career milestone. Each additional Milestone beyond level 16 requires 100 gamerpoints to unlock; earlier Milestones require fewer.^[1]

Milestone Tiers

7-11	30	130-250
12-16	50	300-500
17+	100	600+

Using the dates of the achievements earned, Halo Waypoint also includes the specific date they reached each particular level. All those on a player's friend list are able to view the player's milestones.

There were originally 40 milestones available at launch. It currently takes 6400 Halo Gamerpoints to reach the maximum milestone 75. Future titles will bring about an increase in the maximum Career Level.
