Ah, I remember the old days, when you "won" by having your side win, and having a Kill / Death ratio sufficiently above 1.0. I haven't played much since the Halo: Reach release. Even back then, they had started adding XP, so that you could earn a higher rank... which didn't mean anything in-game as far as I knew. Just access to more fancy armor mods and such.
