OVERVIEW

Players can engage Halo 4 through a number of ways. In Campaign, players take the role of the Master Chief, the living legend of the Covenant War, a SPARTAN-II super-soldier wearing heavily modified GEN1 Mjolnir armor. Within War Games and Spartan Ops, players take the role of a highly specialized SPARTAN-IV super-soldier, deployed from UNSC Infinity and utilizing a state-of-the-art Mjolnir GEN2 armor system.

In both roles, players can leverage all of the expected abilities of a Spartan: power, speed, dexterity, and resilience far beyond that of a normal human. The player’s Mjolnir armor can also provide individualized specializations referred to as Armor Abilities, such as Hardlight Shield, Active Camouflage, or Jet Pack. SPARTAN-IVs can integrate additional armor modifications, such as Support Upgrades and Tactical Packages, which apply incremental yet valuable improvements to a Spartan’s combat functionality.

PANSRINGSEGENSKAPER

I likhet med det foregående GEN1-panseret, har Mjolnir GEN2 Powered Assault Armor komponentmoduler, noe som lar brukerne legge til fysisk hardware til pansringen sin. Dette kan forbedre kampevner og ytelse dramatisk. Det mest imponerende med denne egenskapen er at Mjolnirs firmware er i stand til å oppdage og oversette fremmed teknologi, inkludert teknologien som brukes av bakkestyrkene til både Covenant og Forerunners, slik som hologrammet eller lysskjoldet.

TACTICAL PACKAGES

The technological advancement to Mjolnir GEN2 offers Spartans a seamless integration of armor mods to improve their proficiency during battle. Among these are Tactical Packages: software updates that increase Spartans’ combat readiness and responsiveness when configured within their loadout. While Tactical Packages may appear to be marginal in their overall benefit, the pervasive use of them by combat-experienced Spartans argues otherwise.

SUPPORT UPGRADES

With the recent proliferation of Mjolnir GEN2 armor comes the leveraging of a variety of armor mods, capable of enhancing a Spartan’s combat performance in the field. Critical to these are Support Upgrades, ad hoc technology-based enhancements to a Spartan’s armor functionality when introduced into their loadout. Support Upgrades focus on augmenting combat resiliency during engagements, specifically over protracted firefights and combat scenarios.

PLAYER PROGRESSION

Through both War Games and Spartan Ops, personnel can effectively rank up, unlocking items, such as armor kits, components, and skins, for use within their custom loadouts. What’s more, Spartans earn points while ranking up that they can use to purchase items to improve their combat performance and abilities in the field.

BRUKERTILPASSING AV PANSRING

Etterhvert som personalet i Spartan-grenen av UNSC går opp i rang, vil de få tilgang til et stort utvalg pansringssett og individuelle oppgraderinger som de kan sette sammen etter sin personlige smak. I tillegg kan de utstyre pansringen med alternative overflater, for å tilpasse utseendet og identiteten deres i felten. Noen av de sjeldneste pansringssettene og komponentene kan bare oppnås ved å fullføre spesielle utmerkelser, utfordringer, eller andre Waypoint-mål.

ORDNANCE DROP

During the course of War Games simulations and Spartan Ops, drop pods can deploy ordnance into the field. Once on the ground, these pods are marked on the heads-up displays of all nearby personnel who can then acquire the weapons or power-ups for use against enemies. In some simulated matches within War Games, Spartans can earn and manually call in their own ordnance drops.
