Wednesday was an important day in the United States, as we celebrated our nation’s independence by grilling massive amounts of meat, basking in the sun, and blowing stuff up (Please note I initially used a word other than “stuff” in the previous sentence but was told my linguistic selection was not nice or appropriate. Considering I am neither of those things, you would think it would have been okay). | Wednesday was an important day in the United States, as we celebrated our nation’s independence by grilling massive amounts of meat, basking in the sun, and blowing stuff up (Please note I initially used a word other than “stuff” in the previous sentence but was told my linguistic selection was not nice or appropriate.

Since we are a little over four months to launch, there are a million moving parts around the studio right now. We just finished recording something in LA, which is currently titled, ”Halo 4 Theme - Temp Name.” Pretty catchy, eh? We also had a few people in Cannes, France, attending the Interactive and Digital Entertainment Festival - a retail-only event where buyers go to see the latest games. Translations were translated, presentations were presented, and demos were demoed. Beaches were not beached, though, as time did not allow for that. Unfortunately, sometimes priorities make getting a tan challenging. Those of you at RTX will see the proof of that this weekend. | Since we are a little over four months to launch, there are a million moving parts around the studio right now.

Now, before I dip into the meat of this week’s Bulletin, let’s rewind for a minute. At E3, we invited some of the world's top MLG players to come to a special event to try Halo 4's Infinity Multiplayer for the first time. Players went head-to-head with two new game modes, Infinity Slayer and Regicide, across three different maps. Check out this brand new video to hear their impressions, and then let’s take a deep-dive into Infinity Slayer. | Now, before I dip into the meat of this week’s Bulletin, let’s rewind for a minute.

Team Slayer has always been the most popular mode in Halo, so when we sat down to build the Halo 4 competitive multiplayer experience, we asked ourselves several questions: How do you improve upon Team Slayer, especially after so many iterations? How do you reward players without upsetting the delicate balance and gameplay loop? How do you make it feel different but comfortable at the same time? | Team Slayer has always been the most popular mode in Halo, so when we sat down to build the Halo 4 competitive multiplayer experience, we asked ourselves several questions: How do you improve upon Team Slayer, especially after so many iterations?

Halo 4 features the new scoring system in all modes, but it makes its biggest impact in Infinity Slayer as players earn ordnance rewards from the UNSC Infinity. | Halo 4 features the new scoring system in all modes, but it makes its biggest impact in Infinity Slayer as players earn ordnance rewards from the UNSC Infinity. | ||

'''Infinity Ordnance''' - During each Infinity Slayer experience, the UNSC Infinity drops ordnance at the start of the match. So, what used to be a shotgun leaning against the wall in previous Halos is now dropped from Infinity. At carefully-tuned intervals, Infinity resupplies the map with power weapons. | '''Infinity Ordnance''' - During each Infinity Slayer experience, the UNSC Infinity drops ordnance at the start of the match.

'''Personal Ordnance''' - As you earn medals, you fill up your ordnance meter. When that meter is full, you earn a reward drop for yourself from the Infinity. The reward comes in the form of three randomized power weapons, grenades, or powerups (two of the former, one of the latter). You can then choose which one you want, and the Infinity will drop the ordnance (if you’re inside, it will teleport in). You won’t get the highest tier power weapons (e.g., rockets) in personal ordnance, but everything you do get is powerfully awesome. And awesomely powerful. And everything in between. | '''Personal Ordnance''' - As you earn medals, you fill up your ordnance meter. When that meter is full, you earn a reward drop for yourself from the Infinity.

We are still fine-tuning the system but in its current iteration, each successive ordnance takes 30% more to get. On average, each player gets 1-2 ordnance per game. Solid playing may net you three; however, I’ve been unable to confirm. For obvious reasons. | We are still fine-tuning the system but in its current iteration, each successive ordnance takes 30% more to get. On average, each player gets 1-2 ordnance per game.

Powerups are one of the biggest new impact features, and there will be three powerup selections available in Infinity Slayer. Overshield is making a return along with two new additions: Damage Boost and Speed Boost. Powerups are different colors, both on your screen and your character. Overshield is green, Speed Boost is blue (and leaves trails), and Damage Boost is red. | Powerups are one of the biggest new impact features, and there will be three powerup selections available in Infinity Slayer.

In one way or another, every single person in the studio is working on Halo 4 right now. As we get closer to launch, the teams that split their time between that game and Reach find their priorities slowly shifting. Because we’re so heads-down right now, working on kicking out the monster that is Halo 4, we are not able to release a Halo: Reach matchmaking update for July. | In one way or another, every single person in the studio is working on Halo 4 right now.

The Grenade Launcher is often referred to as the pro-pipe. I’m not exactly sure why (though I’m guessing it’s because it’s similar to a pipe. And it’s pro). Regardless, if you like this oddly-nicknamed weapon, you’re in luck because this week’s Custom Challenge of the Week features everybody’s favorite explosive discharger. | The Grenade Launcher is often referred to as the pro-pipe.

Starting today and ending on Sunday, hopping into that playlist will present you with the chance of receiving a 32,000-credit bonus. Zero bloom and extra credits?
