343iBot Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Welcome to week 4 of the Halo 4 Global Championship! This week contains the largest variety of game types. Aptly named “Rumble Grab Bag,” featured game types include UNSC, Covenant and Forerunner Slayer as well as FFA King of the Hill (KOTH) and FFA Oddball. Here is the map / game type break down for this week: Haven Solace Abandon Adrift Skyline Monolith Landfall FFA KOTH FFA Oddball UNSC Slayer Covenant Slayer Forerunner Slayer Each of the Slayer variants this week equip competitors with the corresponding precision rifle and automatic weapon in a single, preset Loadout. This is done to vary the game type from last week’s Rumble Pro selection, and also because the secondary pistols for each category greatly differ from one another. Also, offering the Assault Rifle, Storm Rifle, and Suppressor in the secondary slot creates a consistent experience across all three Slayer game types. Here are the Loadouts for each Slayer variant: UNSC Slayer Loadout Pro BR Primary Weapon Battle Rifle Secondary Weapon Assault Rifle Grenades 2x Frag Armor Ability None Tactical Package Resupply Support Upgrade Explosives Covenant Slayer Loadout Pro Carbine Primary Weapon Carbine Secondary Weapon Storm Rifle Grenades 2x Plasma Armor Ability None Tactical Package Resupply Support Upgrade Explosives Forerunner Slayer Loadout Pro LightRifle Primary Weapon LightRifle Secondary Weapon Suppressor Grenades 2x Pulse Armor Ability None Tactical Package Resupply Support Upgrade Explosives For FFA Oddball and FFA King of the Hill, we’ve varied the settings a bit and optimized for the Halo 4 Global Championship, with settings such as progressive Hill movement and static Oddball spawning enabled. FFA Oddball Game Settings Score to Win 150 Time Limit 12 minutes Oddball Options Ball Count 1 Ball Spawning Static Carry Points 1 point Carrier Kill Points No Points Automatic Pickup Enabled Hot Potato Timer Disabled Random Potato Timer Disabled Carrier Visibility Enabled Loadout Usage Personal Respawn Settings Respawn Time 5 Seconds Suicide Penalty 3 Seconds Death Cam Disabled Infinity Settings Personal Ordnance Disabled Equipment Motion Tracker Enabled Sensor Range Unchanged FFA KOTH Game Settings Score to Win 150 Time Limit 12 minutes KOTH options Hill movement Progressive Number of Hills 1 Hill Scoring Style Score One Hill Movement Condition Time Hill Time Limit 30 seconds Hill Point Limit 25 points Drain on Hill Move Disabled Trespasser Kill Points Disabled Hill Spawn Penalty Disabled Vehicles on Hills Disabled Loadout Usage Personal Respawn Settings Respawn Time 5 Seconds Suicide Penalty 3 Seconds Death Cam Disabled Infinity Settings Personal Ordnance Disabled Equipment Motion Tracker Enabled Sensor Range Unchanged This is the first time that FFA Slayer and objective game types are included in the same playlist in Halo 4, and we’re excited to see how competitors handle the variety of this new mix. With no map voting in the Global Championship playlist, we can be sure that only well-rounded players will advance through week 4. As always, best of luck to all competitors!
