Halo 4 listing on Microsoft Store Suggests the Return of Clans

[Adam91]

The listing for Halo 4 on the US Microsoft Store has a bullet point that reads:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Track your groups, stats and scores on HaloWaypoint.com"

"Groups" - That's not really a part of the Halo vernacular, which would seem suggest a new feature. Clans, maybe?

 

Clan support is something that's been dearly missed among he community since Halo 2. Before the Xbox 360 launched, Microsoft talked about having clan support at a system level, they even showed a clan blade on the old dashboard. Unfortunately, this never materialised and it was never explained why it was dropped. I'd guess they felt the phrase "clan" was very hardcore and suggested a seriousness to the gaming experience that they'd rather avoid.

 

And so we have Groups, we know literally nothing about them other than the fact will be trackable on Waypoint. It's reasonable to think they will be some sort of clan equivalent, what else could they be?

 

It's still early Stateside, I'll update if we get an update from Frankie or David Ellis later in the day - expect teasing, trolling and misdirection.

 

Now it's time for my challenge to win my You got lucky award

Credits to EGYPTIANGHETTO for coming up with the idea and making the picture for my award and credits to both Jester and EGYPTIANGHETTO for riddle idea.

 

 

I will be doing riddles and brain teasers in with my news posts (I will try and do one in each news post i make), some will be connected the news itself some will not but they will all be video game related im some way, this challenge im giving is not related to the actual news above.

 

Heres your challenge.

 

Rearrange the letters placed within the text above to spell out a place thats in a certain video game, the place is the home town of the hero/main character in the video game another hint is that it's not a recent game (that probably didnt help much lol). I hope this isnt too easy or too hard.

 

PM me with your answer you can also give the name of the video game if you wish but the name of the place is what i'm after first person to give the correct answer will be given the you got lucky award. Giving your answer in the comment section below wont be accepted even if it is correct.

 

 

Next time I will give a much better thought out challenge this is just to start it off. I will also reveal the answer when the first person gets it right.

 

im gonna clear things up a little, first the place is fictional not based on a real life place, dont be thinking too much about the capital letters one of them is irrelevant, and since theres 2 colors theres two words.

 

 

Good luck.

 

edit: Zaguroth gave the correct answer first, the answer was Corneria City from star fox he is the first to be awared the you got lucky award congratualtions, also a cogratualtions to fzdw11 was so close he came in a few seconds behind zaguroth but as the rules are you have to be the first to give the correct answer but still well done to him.

I really hope clans is back.

 

 

My life will be complete.

From my experience, clans were just fuel for drama. Kiddies booting members off at random and starting b*tchfights.

 

Good times.

I didn't even think of that when I read this, that's a really good idea.

I actually thought of that if they would have support.
