LOCK AND LOAD - HALO 4 CAMPAIGN MISSION 1 - DAWN



Here's our very first video in our new series LOCK AND LOAD which we are working on with the team over at XBLGAMERHUB. We are going to go through the first mission on Halo 4.

The level starts with John being awakened by Cortana due to some unknown activity aboard the Forward Unto Dawn. John is sent to investigate. As he looks around he discovers Covenant searching the ship and after dispatching them he finds out that there is an entire Covenant fleet assaulting and that the Dawn is being pulled inside a forerunner planet Requiem. Cortana directs Chief to activate the Hyperion missiles to get rid of the Covenant Cruiser, John does so but has to fire them manually when they become jammed. The Cruiser gets destroyed and John runs for the escape pods with Cortana giving direction, as the Dawn is still being pulled inside Requiem. But John doesn't make it and is sucked into Requiem along with the rest of the UNSC Foward Unto Dawn.

MAJESTIC MAP PACK SCREEN GALLERIES

Majestic Map Pack screenshots were released over on HaloWaypoint earlier today.

We get to take a little peek into what we are to expect next week (25/2/13) when the DLC goes live.


LANDFALL

Perfect for Infinity Slayer, this small-to-midsize asymmetrical map offers interiors with sparse cover, which encourages close-range combat, while the exteriors offer long lines of sight to stalk your opponents.














MONOLITH


Monolith harkens back to more classic Halo arena-based maps, and its symmetry lends nicely to objective-based modes like Capture the Flag. Monolith is an open battlefield; wherever you look, you will witness the ferocious action that only a small and open map can provide.












SKYLINE


Skyline, perched high above the sights of reconstruction in Cascade’s capital city, is small and symmetrical: Perfect for Regicide, with a mixture of high and low spaces and plenty of cover.
