Halo 4 War Games: Haven

Posted on January 17, 2013 by Dust Storm

Download

One of the most favorite multiplayer maps in the Halo 4 experience has been Haven, which was actually designed with competitive play in mind. This map is most popular among competitive players because of its symmetry and many routes of escapes and shooting paths. To help us better understand the map, we have Nak3d Eli from Nak3d Halo on to give us the inside scoop on strategy, spawns, weapons, and control points on the map. Enjoy

Posted on January 15, 2013 by Dust Storm

Just as 343i brought in the new year with a new bulletin, we are bringing it in with a new podcast to talk about said bulletin. This week’s bulletin has a somewhat different tune to it however. We have a beautiful letter the community that gets read on the show, but it’s something that you should go read for yourself. We hope to bring you many good podcasts this year and we thank you for trusting us as your source for everything unofficially Halo. Enjoy

Halo 4 Spartan Ops: Artifact

Posted on January 14, 2013 by Dust Storm

Download

We continue our Halo 4 Spartan Ops coverage as we start to dive into the secrets that Requiem holds. A strange Forerunner artifact has been recovered and brought aboard Infinity, which soon wreaks havok across the entire ship. Systems begin to malfunction, and the Infinity is being pulled towards Requiem. Luckily, Commander Palmer is fast on her feet and manages to save the ship by giving the artifact a firm kick. Dr. Glassman’s curiosity gets the better of him and gets absorbed by the artifact. While you and the rest of your Spartan team can’t do much about it at the time, there are still things to do on Requiem to keep the Covenant and the Prometheans at bay while scientists dive further into the depths of the planet. Again, we are joined by our resident Spartan Ops expert HaloFanForLife. Enjoy

Halo Bulletin: 1/9/2013
It has been a while since the bulletin has been around. Of course we expected that updates would be quiet during the holiday season and we were content with that or too busy in the Infinity Challenge to notice. However, bs angel is back in the office and the Bulletin has arrived in 2013! There are some nice updates for what we can expect to come in a couple of weeks and a nice letter written from our beloved Frankie. Check it out if you haven’t already.
