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.

HABILIDADES DE ARMADURA

Similar à armadura GEN1 que a precedeu, a armadura avançada de combate Mjolnir GEN2 apresenta modularidade de componentes, o que permite ao usuário adicionar peças físicas à sua armadura, modificando drasticamente suas capacidades de combate e desempenho. O aspecto impressionante desse atributo é que o firmware da Mjolnir é capaz de detectar e traduzir tecnologia não-nativa, incluindo a tecnologia usada tanto pelas unidades de infantaria do Covenant quanto dos Forerunners, como holograma e escudo de luz sólida.

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.

PERSONALIZAÇÃO DE ARMADURA

Conforme os membros da divisão Spartan da UNSC são promovidos, eles ganham uma ampla variedade de conjuntos de armadura e peças individuais que podem misturar e combinar para refletir seu gosto pessoal. Além disso, podem equipar a armadura com capas alternativas para desenvolver sua presença de campo e identidade. Alguns dos conjuntos e componentes de armadura mais raros só são obtidos quando se completa Comendas, Desafios ou outros objetivos Waypoint específicos no jogo.

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.
