Halo Waypoint Bulletin - 7/16/14


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, from now on I will be covering the Halo Bulletins and the majority of the content enveloped in them until further notice. Before I get yelled at that the iBot handles these, this has been a long discussion between myself, RedStarRocket91, BeckoningZebra1, and Adam91, and I don't post this without their permission. Anyways, now with legal out of the way let's get down to the news! The article is at HaloWaypoint.com here.

Next up, Halo 4's War Games Matchmaking is getting some shuffling with a returning game mode and game type. Big Team SWAT is making an appearance and will run until August 4th. Quick Draw is also returning to the Big Team playlist, and should occasionally appear in the third slot. As well, 343i has sifted through some of the Flood maps and done a bit of cleaning and tidying.

343 has had a long history of collaborating with the Forza series, whether with the original Halo 4 Warthog making an appearance in Forza 4, or the Halo: Spartan Assault vehicle mash-up made in Forza 5. Now we may add to that list as a Forza user has created a Halo 5: Guardians themed McLaren P1 in the game.

This week 10 screenshots made the spotlight involving the theme of the popular American football position, Quarterback, I have one here but the other 9 can be viewed in the actual article! Next week's theme is Suppressor, so be sure to get on Halo 4 and get your screenshots ready! The one above is called 'Exploding Fastball' by 76NITRO, who had three screenshots featured in the article.

 

That's it for this week, be sure to tune into the 343i Comic-Con event! Until then,

 

Edward

Eeeeeeeeeh all news articles mainly go in the Halo & Gaming Industry section, so it wouldn't make a lot of sense. I'll talk to Red about it.

 

I mean of course that the previous ones were also filed under Halowaypoint.
