Halo Wars is a real-time action strategy game for the Xbox 360 that allows the player to control large armies and to shrewdly direct them in realistic warfare. Set early in the iconic war between the Covenant and UNSC - made famous by the Halo FPS games - Halo Wars provides a new angle on the war while bringing new heroes to the battle.

We've spent a great deal of time simply on getting the controls right. Halo Wars was created for the Xbox 360 from the ground up, which meant we didn't have to make compromises or shoe-horn in artifacts from a Windows PC game. We were able to take all the best aspects of RTS games, make them work perfectly on the Xbox 360, and exclude the rest.

*[[|]]
**[ ]
**[ ]


Exile was one of the maps we created toward the end of the development cycle, so we pretty much knew going into it what kind of things to avoid.Since 3v3 maps are our worst performance maps, due to the amount of units it could have on screen at any given time, we knew this maps had to be pretty simplistic. Minimal use of terrain objects/vegetation and no water/lava, which actually worked out nicely since the setting was to represent a lifeless, dried up planet.

[[Fichier:HW-Exile (render 02).jpg|350px|left|thumb]]
==Sélections==
One of the hardest parts of creating Exile had to be alignment of the terrain to the bordering Forerunner structure along the outer edges. I had originally planned on using a very large masking technique to handle this, but after a few attempts I realized that was not going to work for something that needed this type of pixel perfect alignment. So I had to slowly sculpt and blend the terrain by hand all the way around one of our largest maps. My favorite tactic on this map was to gain control over the free reactors and always get my team to hit the player on the outer most ring first. I found that the players that got placed in the middle where always planning for incoming attacks and would hesitate sending their forces away from their base to support allies.

'''Tactics:''' On exile I tend to let my start placement dictate my strategy more so than other maps. If I’m the center start position I like to rush hard and force the opposing center start player to call for help, keeping his teammates from doing what they want.  If I’m either of the other two start locations I tend to go for an all out boom to tech’d up air units hoping our center position teammate can hold out while I try to get there.

<span style="color:#FF8000">'''Designer Notes'''</span>


Fort Deen went through some iterations on gameplay because we wanted this map to feel like each player was pretty safe from the rush. Originally we only had one player per team start in the elevated “safer” areas with his two teammates starting on the outskirts. With the long distance from one side to the other on this map it was still easy enough for two players on one team to rush down the side of the map and hit the edge player with enough time to do serious damage before the edge player’s teammates could react and send help, very much like Frozen Valley and we wanted something different. The simple change of moving the starting locations for all three players up the ledge really helped achieve this. To reinforce this goal we put wall hooks and creep groups down the side paths to help hinder the early rush.

'''Tactics:''' On this map I love to use Brute commando squads. Since they’re infantry I can put them into the wall towers and block off my enemies ground forces but because of my brute jump packs I can jump back and forth over the walls to get away from danger or to closer to juicy targets coming to shoot my units out of the towers. Once my team has the upper hand it can still be very difficult to crack the enemy team’s starting base location since they’re in close proximity to each other up on the ledges. While the enemy has their forces at one of the two choke points trying to stop my teammates tank/air combo and my brute chief from storming in, I like to walk my army of brute commandos up to the front wall in the center, where they usually only have missile towers for air to come over, and jumppack my brutes into the back of their base. When they figure out what I’m doing and send some troops over to stop me I jump my brutes back down and run away and repeat the process once they move back to the front.

Justin Rouse, a skirmish map designer, dishes out some info on Frozen Valley:
<center><gallery>
Frozen Valley was the first 3v3 map designed during the development of Halo Wars. After Chasms, this was probably our most played map through internal playtesting. The layout went through one major tweak throughout development and that was the opening down between the teams that runs along the bottom edge on picture shown here. The first iteration had the hole as well as the mount near that bottom edge of the map extend all the way to the edge. Leaving a pocket only access through the middle by land units. It allowed the two bottom player on each team to build up safely.
Fichier:HR-Invasion (Way).jpg
</gallery></center>


As map “hooks” came online I wanted them to be easily attacked from different angles and only having 2 paths between teams was making this too difficult. Once the bottom side path was opened leaving a “3-way” go between the teams, along with the hooks placed on the map, more strategic options became available and the map became extremely fun. Before, it was just a fairly straight forward map.

Frozen Valley was actually one of my least played maps during development. When it came to playtesting, I was usually available for the 1v1 and 2v2 playtest sessions (where I'd throw down with Thunder), so I rarely got to play Frozen Valley. Nonetheless, my incessant whining about the OPness of the Warthog got it toned down (yes, you read that right) before launch. Warthogs during development were almost immune to infantry up until RPGs entered the equation.

But on to Tactics! Your strategy for the game usually depends on if you're in the pocket (the middle) of your side or not. If you are, it's usually safe for you to boom and go for higher-tech units, possible swooping in to save the day at the last minute. If you're on either of the sides, you're usually in the thick of it with your opponents across the way fairly quickly over the expansions. As always, trying to grab your opponents nearest base is a good tactic to throwing their game off, if a bit risky.

</poem>


Also, all the extra bases around the map mean that if you can protect them, you can get a ton of resources and build up armies very quickly. Personally, I like to go air if I'm Anders, or Tanks if I'm Forge on this map, they seem to cover the distance very quickly and can usually survive long enough for you to accomplish your goals with them.

</gallery></center>


Originally, our DLC2 pack (Historic Battles) was intended to contain only 3 maps: Barrens, Blood River, and Memorial Basin. After seeing the outcry for more 3v3 maps we took a look at what it would take to get one into the Pack. We did some due diligence and realized we didn’t have the time to create a new 3v3 from scratch, get it through testing, and put it into the map pack. So we compromised by repurposing an existing map, which allowed us to reduce developer time enough to get Glacial Ravine out the door with the others.

We decided on using Frozen Valley as our base map because the majority of the bases were on the outer edge of the map which left us with a lot of central area to manipulate for game play rather than worrying about meeting our base requirement needs. Since this map was very open, and all of our 3v3’s had multi routes to the enemy we decided to go with a more focused front and funnel everyone through the middle. Adding in the wall towers allows players to control the “line” between them and their enemies easier than any of the other 3v3’s. With large scale battles happing in 1 place, this seemed like a perfect map to add the Sentinel Factory to giving everyone access to the Super Sentinel to be a stunning menace to large armies moving through the middle pass. There is only 1 free floating base location on each side of the map now so teams will have to strategize for which player gets the extra/3rd base location, also making the creeps at this location a bit tougher slows players from taking it just a tad.

Tactics: On Glacial Ravine I like to use the Covenant and take advantage of the Scarab walking over cliffs and surprising the enemy with beams of death raining down from the hillside. Obviously, you can use any leader here but I prefer the Brute Chieftain for his Brute commandos. Using his brute commandos built from bases themselves allows me to use my building sockets to boom and get shield protection from air attacks. They also give me an infantry unit which I can use to garrison in the wall towers and hold the middle of the map for my team.
<poem>Team Slayer
If the other team takes control of the center wall towers upgrading the commandos to have jump packs allows me to move my forces over their walls and harass them while hopefully being able to jump back over to safety when they start to hunt my forces down. If my teammates haven’t crushed the enemy by this time I’m usually ready to get out an early Scarab. I usually don’t have much to support him but walking him over the center cliffs to surprise the enemy is very effective. Usually the entire enemy team scrambles to deal with my Scarab my teammates have free reign to attack other key locations.

</poem>


Beasley’s Plateau is probably one of my favorite 2v2 maps. The wide open space gives me plenty of room to maneuver and sneak my army up next to the enemy base before they realize I’m coming. One of my favorite tricks on Beasley’s is to use my scout and a couple of friends to sneak over and grab unused sockets at the start of the game. It’s a great way to get my econ boosted, or start cranking out troops right next to the enemy.
<center><gallery>
Fichier:HR-The Arena (Way).jpg
</gallery></center>


I always try to make sure to take out sockets on the way to the enemy base, that way it’s harder for the enemy to regroup. However, I also like to just attack the sockets with a few troops, and then move the bulk of my army around the other side of their base. As soon as they get their troops over to defend the sockets, I rush in and take out their base.

<span style="color:#FF8000">'''Designer Notes'''</span>
<center><gallery>
Fichier:HR-Super Slayer (Way).jpg
</gallery></center>


Justin Rouse, a skirmish map Designer, gives us one of his tactics:


I like going with a Forge infantry rush on this map because of the extra building sockets near the starting bases. I quickly clear the rebels there and build 2 supply pads on the those sockets. The extra resources allows me to pump infantry and warthogs at the same time. I use this force to get over to the enemy’s free standing sockets since many players will build on them quickly and use the extra buildings to tech/boom faster. If I can take down these buildings I can usually put my opponent into a hole off the start. At that point, if I can keep the pressure on them they’ll begin to crumble.


The other notable thing to do on Beasley’s is to get the Life Support hook in the center. The mistake a lot of people make is they go for this too early in the game. This hook is extremely powerful (+20~25% to total max pop with reinforcements upgraded) but its power will go unused if you acquire this hook before you’re ready to use the population space. You should always wait until you’re near pop cap before fighting the tough rebels at this location, but even if you can’t make use of the pop room its still a good idea to make sure you’re in control of it and not your enemy.

=Bungie.net - Halo: Reach: Features (http://halo.bungie.net/)=
==Modes/Variants==
===Headhunter===
The object of the game is simple: every player you kill drops a skull. Collect as many as you can and deposit them into one of the designated territories to score. First to 25 wins unless a player manages to earn the elusive “Skullamanjaro” by capturing ten skulls all at once.


http://halo.bungie.net/images/Games/Reach/betaGuide/inlines/action_headhunter.jpg


Keep in mind, your opponent’s HUD will display exactly how many skulls you have in hand! Carry too many at once, and you’ll become the object of everyone’s affection. And since the territories are active at random, you’ll need to know exactly where you’re going before you decide to take a big risk.


===UNSC===
===Stockpile===
Two teams scrap over four neutral flags. Flags are scored by bringing them into your team’s designated territory and protecting them until the timer reaches zero. Flags are collected every sixty seconds.


http://halo.bungie.net/images/Games/Reach/betaGuide/inlines/action_stockpile.jpg


===Covenant===
If the flag is outside the zone, even if you have it in your hands, it won’t count. If you allow a player on the other team to infiltrate your territory and toss all your flags outside the clearly marked boundaries, those won’t count either.


There are two ways to win:


1. Score a total of 10 Flags.<br>
2. Score the most flags in the ten minutes allotted.


Sounds pretty simple, right? It’s actually really nuanced. There’s a lot of push/pull going on and a coordinated team can employ multiple strategies to keep things mixed up.


===Spirit of Fire===
===Invasion===
<span style="color:#FF8000">'''''Exitus Acta Probat'''''</span>
Invasion is a multi-phase, 6v6 Objective game mode pitting Spartans versus Elites on a variety of massively multiplayer arenas. As the attacking team successfully completes each phase, new weapons and load outs are made available, and the action intensifies as the combat moves into new sections of the battlefield.


[[Fichier:HW-Spirit of Fire (official site timeline).jpg|370px|right]]

'''CFV-88'''


<poem>
'''Invasion Slayer'''
'''Constructed:''' 2473
'''Class:''' Phoenix
'''Captain:''' Cutter
'''A.I.:''' On board -  "Serina"
</poem>


Invasion Slayer is also Spartans vs. Elites, but instead of focusing on specific sections of the map and the objectives each contains, you’ll be focusing on making the other team eat lead. Loadouts will become more and more powerful as the game moves through its three phases, each of which are triggered by either time or kill count, whichever comes first.


<poem>The ''Spirit of Fire'' was originally a colony ship, transporting equipment and colonists in the UNSC's expansion efforts. In 2520 the ship was refit with a Magnetic Accelerator Cannon and other armaments to serve as a warship. Huge storage bays that used to house machine parts now carry everything from Warthogs and Scorpion Tanks to construction supplies for fire bases in hot spots in front line engagements or in rearguard actions.
You’ll also find randomly positioned territories throughout each map. Capture them and you’ll initiate an airdrop that will be deployed 10 seconds later. Keep it secure long enough and you’ll be able to snag the spoils listed above, either weapons or vehicles. Of course, while you wait out the drop, you’re bound to attract some unwanted attention. Keep your eyes peeled. Once the bounty drops, anyone can grab it.
The campaign in Halo Wars follows the ''Spirit of Fire'' and her crew as the UNSC deals with the first deadly encounters with the Covenant.</poem>

===Arena===
'''Welcome to The Arena'''


===Timeline===
It’s go time. Gone are the traditional rankings of the past online Halo experiences, in are Seasons and Divisions. Do well here and you will be grouped into flights of players featuring the best of the best, at the end of each Season your stats will be carved into your Service Record for all eternity* and subsequently refreshed in anticipation of the new Season to come.


http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Welcome_Arena.jpg


The Arena is a brand new Matchmaking experience incorporated into Halo: Reach, aimed directly at competitive players who value competitive play and bragging rights above all else. Halo: Reach still features a wealth of other Playlist offerings, ranging from social to competitive (and everything in between), but the Arena is all about competition.


Its rules are simple:


Play enough games each day to be rated.
Get rated on enough days in a Season and you will be placed in a Division amongst your peers.
You can check your updated Division placement in your service record each day you play after placing in a Division.
At the end of each season, everyone who has placed in a Division will receive a breakdown of their Division placement in each Arena Playlist.
Note: The number of days and ratings required can fluctuate from season to season. The requirements will be relayed to you in game when you enter and play in the Arena.


'''Simple to Play...'''


...difficult to master. Though the Arena playlist is a breeze to enter, in order to understand the complexities found within it's Ratings and Divisions systems, you'll need to buckle up and brush up on your math. Nothing says bloodbath like advanced level statistics.

<span style="color:#FF8000">'''Featured Screenshot'''</span>
To get rated, you need to complete enough games in an Arena playlist on the current day. Each “day” begins at 3AM PST. As you complete qualifying games, your progress will be charted and displayed on your nameplate in the Arena playlist lobby.


[[Fichier:HW-Covenant units inside Harvest Relic (screenshot).jpg|650px|center|thumb]]

<center>Again, the Daily Rating progress is tracked on the nameplate. One down, two to go.</center>


Once you’ve successfully completed your games, your Best Games will be displayed on your nameplate. This rating is determined by an average of your three best individual performances. But remember: all of your games count, wins and losses alike, so the Best Games metric is just there for bragging rights.

'''Silver''' – Like most players, your aim is true, but you’re not quite ready to take on pro players.


===Concept Art===
'''Bronze''' – You are not yet instilling fear in your opponents, but you are no easy mark.
Before any game goes into full production on the art front, artists have to flesh out the look of the environments, people, and vehicles. These pieces of art can be of great inspiration when creating a game, allowing artists to easily try out ideas for great big environments or intricate units quickly and easily, without the restrictions of a game engine. Here is a collection of some of the early concepts that our teams has been working on for Halo Wars, we hope you enjoy them.  


Please note that because concepting happens early in the development cycle, they often depict ideas, scenes, or units that may not appear in the game.
'''Iron''' – You’re just getting warmed up. Keep honing your skills and you're bound to improve.</center>


Player population is not divided equally between each Division. For example, only five percent of all players will qualify for the Onyx Division.


<span style="color:#FF8000">'''Environment Concepts'''</span>
When you qualify for a Division, you will be notified in game. At the end of each Season, you will be sent a summary of your Seasonal performance, the Division rosters will be reset, and a new Arena Season will begin.

Bungie.net - Halo: Reach: Features (http://halo.bungie.net/)[modifier]

Modes/Variants[modifier]

Headhunter[modifier]

The object of the game is simple: every player you kill drops a skull. Collect as many as you can and deposit them into one of the designated territories to score. First to 25 wins unless a player manages to earn the elusive “Skullamanjaro” by capturing ten skulls all at once.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/Games/Reach/betaGuide/inlines/action_headhunter.jpg

Keep in mind, your opponent’s HUD will display exactly how many skulls you have in hand! Carry too many at once, and you’ll become the object of everyone’s affection. And since the territories are active at random, you’ll need to know exactly where you’re going before you decide to take a big risk.

Stockpile[modifier]

Two teams scrap over four neutral flags. Flags are scored by bringing them into your team’s designated territory and protecting them until the timer reaches zero. Flags are collected every sixty seconds.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/Games/Reach/betaGuide/inlines/action_stockpile.jpg

If the flag is outside the zone, even if you have it in your hands, it won’t count. If you allow a player on the other team to infiltrate your territory and toss all your flags outside the clearly marked boundaries, those won’t count either.

There are two ways to win:

1. Score a total of 10 Flags.
2. Score the most flags in the ten minutes allotted.

Sounds pretty simple, right? It’s actually really nuanced. There’s a lot of push/pull going on and a coordinated team can employ multiple strategies to keep things mixed up.

Invasion[modifier]

Invasion is a multi-phase, 6v6 Objective game mode pitting Spartans versus Elites on a variety of massively multiplayer arenas. As the attacking team successfully completes each phase, new weapons and load outs are made available, and the action intensifies as the combat moves into new sections of the battlefield.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/Games/Reach/betaGuide/inlines/invasion.jpg

Invasion Slayer

Invasion Slayer is also Spartans vs. Elites, but instead of focusing on specific sections of the map and the objectives each contains, you’ll be focusing on making the other team eat lead. Loadouts will become more and more powerful as the game moves through its three phases, each of which are triggered by either time or kill count, whichever comes first.

You’ll also find randomly positioned territories throughout each map. Capture them and you’ll initiate an airdrop that will be deployed 10 seconds later. Keep it secure long enough and you’ll be able to snag the spoils listed above, either weapons or vehicles. Of course, while you wait out the drop, you’re bound to attract some unwanted attention. Keep your eyes peeled. Once the bounty drops, anyone can grab it.

First to 100 kills wins.

Arena[modifier]

Welcome to The Arena

It’s go time. Gone are the traditional rankings of the past online Halo experiences, in are Seasons and Divisions. Do well here and you will be grouped into flights of players featuring the best of the best, at the end of each Season your stats will be carved into your Service Record for all eternity* and subsequently refreshed in anticipation of the new Season to come.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Welcome_Arena.jpg

The Arena is a brand new Matchmaking experience incorporated into Halo: Reach, aimed directly at competitive players who value competitive play and bragging rights above all else. Halo: Reach still features a wealth of other Playlist offerings, ranging from social to competitive (and everything in between), but the Arena is all about competition.

Its rules are simple:

Play enough games each day to be rated. Get rated on enough days in a Season and you will be placed in a Division amongst your peers. You can check your updated Division placement in your service record each day you play after placing in a Division. At the end of each season, everyone who has placed in a Division will receive a breakdown of their Division placement in each Arena Playlist. Note: The number of days and ratings required can fluctuate from season to season. The requirements will be relayed to you in game when you enter and play in the Arena.

Simple to Play...

...difficult to master. Though the Arena playlist is a breeze to enter, in order to understand the complexities found within it's Ratings and Divisions systems, you'll need to buckle up and brush up on your math. Nothing says bloodbath like advanced level statistics.

Getting Rated

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/No_Games.jpg

This player has not played any qualifying games this Season. Notice the ellipses on the nameplate.

To get rated, you need to complete enough games in an Arena playlist on the current day. Each “day” begins at 3AM PST. As you complete qualifying games, your progress will be charted and displayed on your nameplate in the Arena playlist lobby.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/pip_2.jpg

Again, the Daily Rating progress is tracked on the nameplate. One down, two to go.

Once you’ve successfully completed your games, your Best Games will be displayed on your nameplate. This rating is determined by an average of your three best individual performances. But remember: all of your games count, wins and losses alike, so the Best Games metric is just there for bragging rights.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Rated_Day.jpg

1704. Not bad. Tomorrow, the process will begin again.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/First_Day_Rating.jpg

The image above indicated that "0 more days" are required. You'll need to do better.

Rating, Explained

Ratings are used as a measure of personal skill, but are not used when calculating who won or lost the match. Your rating will not affect your Division placement.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/InGame_ScoreBoard.jpg

The image above indicated that "0 more days" are required. You'll need to do better.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Ratings_2.jpg

You can also view each player's rating in the Post Game Carnage Report.

Note: For a more complete breakdown of the Ratings mathematical DNA, scroll to the section at the bottom of this article, penned lovingly by our very own Onyx designer, Tyson Green.

If your head is swimming right about, grab hold with both hands and try the simple version of all of this madness, listed below.

Division Qualification and Placement

To be assigned and placed into a Division of your peers, you will need to be rated over the required number of games in a Season.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Division_Qualification.jpg

Divisions are never set in stone. Stop playing and you may forfeit your lofty perch to another hungry player.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Season_Status-.jpg

Status updates keep you informed on Seasonal days remaining.

'The Divisions

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/All_Divisions.jpg

Almost as if by magic, this player currently has a friend in his party representing each Division!

Onyx – Only the best of the best will thrive in this Division. Access is extremely limited.

Gold – Great players who demonstrate excellent aim and well executed teamwork.

Silver – Like most players, your aim is true, but you’re not quite ready to take on pro players.

Bronze – You are not yet instilling fear in your opponents, but you are no easy mark.

Iron – You’re just getting warmed up. Keep honing your skills and you're bound to improve.

Player population is not divided equally between each Division. For example, only five percent of all players will qualify for the Onyx Division.

When you qualify for a Division, you will be notified in game. At the end of each Season, you will be sent a summary of your Seasonal performance, the Division rosters will be reset, and a new Arena Season will begin.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Rated_Silver.jpg

Many skilled players may find themselves in the Silver Division.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Welcome_Season.jpg

Each new Season, the Divisions are reset and your current slate is wiped clean.

http://halo.bungie.net/images/News/Inline10/arena/Service_Record.jpg

To chart your course, make sure you're checking into your Service Record and following along from Bungie.net.

After placing in a Division, your Service Record will update daily to show your Division Standing, displayed as a percentile. Check it every day to see how you're progressing!

See you in the Arena!
