Most games feature only the skulls found in their original game, save for the ''Anniversary'' games which feature several new ones. The ''Anniversary'' games also feature some skulls which have a 0.00x multiplier that will completely disable campaign scoring and prevent the player from unlocking any campaign scoring achievements. Skull multiplier values are similar to those found in ''Halo: Reach'', however they once again multiply together rather than adding, resulting in the lowest skull multipliers to date. | Most games feature only the skulls found in their original game, save for the ''Anniversary'' games which feature several new ones.

Additionally, the ''Collection'' is far less forgiving with regard to time. When a player starts a level they are eligible for a 3x multiplier until they reach the par time. At that point rather than decreasing in tiers as in previous games, the time multiplier decreases incrementally until it reaches a multiplier of 1.00.

Five to twenty minutes after that<ref group="note">The amount of time it takes for the multiplier to decrease from 3.00x to 1.00x and then again to the point cutoff varies greatly from mission to mission, ranging from 5 to 20 minutes. For example [[Assault on the Control Room]] reaches par time at 15:00, 1.00x multiplier at 30:00, and cuts off at 40:00. [[Tip of the Spear]]'s times are 15:00, 25:00, and 30:00 comparatively. [[Tayari Plaza]] has the shortest par time in the ''Collection'' at 3:00, however its multiplier does not reach 1.00x until 18:00 and cut off until 28:00.</ref> the game stops awarding additional points altogether; kills and medals can still be earned, however they award 0 points. Players will still lose points for dying or resetting checkpoints. | ||
This point cutoff is particularly notable because par times in the ''Master Chief Collection'' are based on speedrun times; the most common par time is only 15:00 and the longest is only 25:00. This is notable because many levels such as [[Assault on the Control Room]] would normally take the better part of an hour, with a speedrun requiring players to bypass large sections of the level. As such, playing through the level as intended will inevitably result in the player running up against this time cutoff. | This point cutoff is particularly notable because par times in the ''Master Chief Collection'' are based on speedrun times; the most common par time is only 15:00 and the longest is only 25:00.
