Over the past two months, we've begun to share our plans for the current year and beyond. We started to announce new characters, vehicles, and re-mastered maps. In the near future, we'll have more to share on everything from Halo: The Master Chief Collection to Halo: Nightfall, and more. We know you're anxiously awaiting more details on these projects, and it just so happens that we'll have new info to share with you quite soon. The next stop for the Halo team is sunny San Diego for the world famous Comic-Con International.

Halo @ San Diego Comic-Con 2014[modifier]

A week from today, the team will be heading down to Southern California to give you a first look at Halo: Nightfall and provide you with more information on Halo: The Master Chief Collection. We’ll have dedicated panels for each project at Comic-Con. Check out the official descriptions below.

Halo: Nightfall First-Look

Thursday, July 24, 11:45 a.m. – 12:45 p.m., Room 6BCF

Prepare for your next step in the Halo Journey with a deep-dive into Halo: Nightfall, the upcoming live-action digital series from 343 Industries and Scott Free Productions. Join 343’s Kiki Wolfkill (Executive Producer), Frank O’Connor (Franchise Development Director) along with key Halo: Nightfall cast and crew, to be among the first to get details of the story and production, as well as see a short video tease.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection Developer Panel

Friday, July 25, 10:15 a.m. – 11:15 a.m., Room 6BCF

Join 343 Industries’ Senior Producer Dennis Ries, Franchise Director Frank O’Connor, Certain Affinity’s President and original Halo 2 multiplayer and online design lead Max Hoberman, and other guests for an in-depth conversation about Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Fans can hear about what to expect from the compilation and discuss the efforts being made to bring the story of the Master Chief and Halo’s legendary multiplayer to a new generation.

Both of the above panels will provide exclusive insight into each project from creators and developers - if you’ll be at Comic-Con, be sure to get in line early to reserve your spot! The panels will not be live-streamed, but we will be recording and posting the panels to YouTube and Waypoint over the weekend – keep an eye on our official YouTube channel.

We’ll also be hanging out in the Xbox Lounge at the Manchester Grand Hyatt throughout the weekend (from 11:00 A.M. Thursday through 5:00 P.M. Sunday, to be exact). We’ll have lots to do, including live demos of Halo: The Master Chief Collection, live artist sessions, opportunities to create your own mini Spartan helmets, photo opportunities with badass props from our friends over at Stony Props, and more. Swing by and join us! Lastly, stay tuned to Twitter, Instagram, and Waypoint next week for the latest from Comic-Con, including breaking Halo news, social media contests, giveaways, and more.

Halo 4 Matchmaking Update[modifier]

Next week, we’ve got a returning favorite coming to Halo 4 Matchmaking. Big Team SWAT will be our featured playlist, and be available until August 4. If you just so happen to be a fan of racking up an absurd amount of headshots and multikills, be sure to hop into the playlist and do some damage. If you aren’t a fan of racking up an absurd amount of headshots and multikills, I’m concerned.

We also added Quick Draw to the Team Doubles playlist, and it will appear occasionally in the third voting slot. The game type should offer a change of pace from the currently available Slayer and CTF variants. Lastly, we’ve done some usual housekeeping and cleaned up a few of the Flood maps and as well as other minor tweaks to keep things running smoothly.

Halo 5: Guardians Forza 5 Fan-Made Livery[modifier]

We like to think that custom Forza liveries and Halo go together pretty well. A few years back, we had a Warthog make an appearance in the fourth installment, and not too long ago, we collaborated with the designers at Turn 10 to create a special limited edition Halo: Spartan Assault-themed livery for Forza Motorsport 5 - the Halo: Spartan Assault 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 302.

Shortly after the announce of Halo 5: Guardians, our friend and Forza wizard, @Forza_ElMutem crafted this nifty livery on the McLaren P1 featuring Halo 5: Guardians art. Take a look at this beauty below!

You can see more of his impressive work over at the Forza Motorsport 5 forums.

Screenshot Spotlight: Quarterback[modifier]

Last week, we turned the spotlight on Snazzy Skins. Take a gander at the following Quarterback screenshots, and maybe even find inspiration to make your own.

For your chance at being in the next spotlight, take a screenshot that features a Suppressor and tag it with “Suppressor” and “Halo Waypoint,” and maybe, just maybe, yours will be featured in the next Halo Bulletin!

And with that, this week’s Bulletin comes to an end. Swing by next week for an early look at San Diego Comic-Con!

Until then,

Bravo
