As the Tenrai universe is one that offers some incredibly compelling aesthetics, we kept this event’s Story Shard cooking a little while longer to support it with some new bespoke artwork from two of our esteemed artists and honorable warriors—William “Pixelflare” Cameron and Duncan Shaffer.



This Story Shard takes the form of a retelling of “The Duel,” an episode from Halo Legends that became a cautionary tale for the Sangheili, as Arbiter Fal ‘Chavamee defied the Covenant and was made an example of, as the role of Arbiter was twisted from a position of honor into a mark of shame.

The time has now come To enter the battlefield And forge your legend.

Tenrai III Event Launch

Fiction

Tenrai III has come to Halo Infinite, bringing with it a new Story Shard.



Hosted here on Halo Waypoint, Duality is a single-part Story Shard that takes the form of a Tenrai-themed retelling of the Halo Legends episode “The Duel,” featuring art from William “Pixelflare” Cameron and Duncan Shaffer.



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



“This tale begins with an act of defiance. A great clan leader’s refusal to bend the knee to an occupying empire. But not all showed such courage.”



Despair emanates From defiance in honor Refusal to bow 



“The clan leader’s brother sought to persuade him to yield, or they would all face retribution for his defiance.”



Seeking to counsel His brother feared punishment Words drift upon wind 



“Ambushed on his pilgrimage, the Covenant came to eliminate this lone warrior. They did not succeed.”



Ambushed by the horde The Covenant came to kill The field lies silent 



“But his keep was destroyed, and all who lived there were slain.”



A strategic feint For his home was set upon Turned to ghosts and glass 



“When the clan leader returned, he found the carnage and vowed to exact his revenge. He would answer their call to violence.”



Hastening to warn His brother, found amidst blood And would claim vengeance 



“He journeyed to face the other of his kind who had taken all of that which he held dear.”



Across sea and sky He journeyed to face his foe Who chose servitude

“Well, what happened then?”



The Sangheili lost the young girl’s voice as he scanned the area. For a moment, it had sounded as if the shouting and gunfire was getting closer to the warehouse, but he soon lowered his sword and retreated from the alley.



He recalled the story’s end. He knew it well, for it had been told a thousand times since he was a hatchling—and many thousands of times more for centuries before then.



And both would perish A lesson learned only by We who remember. 



In the old tale, the noble Arbiter, Fal ‘Chavamee, and the Covenant’s enforcer both fell to each other’s blades—an end that served nobody but the Prophets and their manipulative designs as the title of Arbiter became a mark of shame.



But, as the Sangheili looked into the round eyes of his young human protectorate, he realized that this story did not speak to the spirit of the times in which they now lived.



The Covenant had fallen, with various pretenders vying to lay claim to its rotting remains. And former enemies, the humans and Sangheili, had—in uncovering the truth about the lies of the Prophets—found some measure of reconciliation with each other.



As the final Age of Reclamation passed, it had been replaced by one of kinship and, perhaps in time, even forgiveness. The lesson to be heeded from the story as it had been told during the time of the Covenant was no longer simply the fear of punishment for disobedience, but that, when facing a great force that seeks to divide, true strength is found in unity.



“Apologies, child,” the Sangheili spoke. “It seems I have forgotten how the story ends…”



The human child made an exaggerated gesture of stroking her chin with two fingers as she studied the toy clutched in her other hand—a figure of a human Spartan, clad in stylized armor that evoked a period of their own ancestral history.



“Maybe we can come up with a new one together?”



What was forged then was the ending the Sangheili wished they could have once had to their centuries-spanning tale of blinding, all-consuming vengeance—and this is what it was…

At the great temple The clan leader saw the truth Without and within 



He cast down his blade And asked that his foe listen To winged wisdom 



So full of hatred That we have become blinded To what we should be



I discard my wrath Let us forgive and share gifts I name you brother.

It’s already the middle of September, can you believe it? So while it’s not quite time to wake anyone up yet, we’re getting close. This year has flown by fast, and Forgers have not slowed down a bit. We have some more awesome maps to show off—from a floating experience, to roaming some fortress ruins, and more. Let’s take a look!

On that front, if you haven’t already checked out this video from jackfrags as he explores what the customs scene has to offer, this will definitely give you a good glimpse at the community’s chaotic creativity!

That wraps this issue up. And as a reminder: <a href="https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/forge-features-15">we’re on the hunt for seasonal-themed maps</a>, so be sure to tag your creations with the relevant seasonal tages:

Ain’t no raid like a Husky Raid! That’s right. Everyone’s favorite linear Capture the Flag (CTF) mode with random weapons has arrived in Halo Infinite!

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HUSKY HISTORY</h2>



First introduced to Halo matchmaking in Halo 4, Husky Raid quickly became a fan favorite. The concept was simple: there’s a narrow corridor, everyone has random weapons and limited cover, and you’ve got to get the enemy’s flag. The chaotic and fervent push to get to the opposite side to merely pull the flag proved to be half the battle… followed by the fight back down the corridor of doom and the push to bring the flag home to score.



In short, it’s CTF with the intensity and chaos turned up to eleven—weapons are random, attrition is high, and the battle for the flags is fierce.



Husky Raid returned in Halo 5 with a plethora of incredible community-made maps and a slew of REQ weapon variants to make the corridors go boom, which solidified its place as one of the all-time great Halo modes—something that, much like Infection in Halo 2, was born from the sheer creative might of the community. And now, Husky Raid has made its way to Halo Infinite.



Let’s take a look at where you’ll be doing battle!

Husky Raid | Halo Infinite

CONTAINMENT PRESS KIT

With the arrival of Husky Raid in Halo Infinite, we can hardly contain our excitement, so it only seems fitting that a new event should accompany it with the opportunity to earn some free customization rewards.



The Containment event is live in Halo Infinite, bringing with it a free 10-tier Event Pass with HAZMAT-themed customization rewards for you to unlock.



<a href="https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/husky-raid-halo-infinite">Don’t forget to read up on the new Husky Raid playlist</a>, but to bring those not in the know quickly up to speed: there are two teams, everybody has random weapons with every spawn, the map is a long corridor, and you’ve got to capture the enemy flag amidst the chaos that is about to erupt.

Community Cartography 016

Forge Features: August 18, 2023

When Halo Infinite launched, Ranked Arena had separate playlist options for input as well as Fireteam size. In order to fix an issue we combined them, and as time went on, we’ve kept them combined in order to promote a better matchmaking experience (ping, time to match, and skill). We also combined them to have a unified ranking experience instead of some players being a certain rank in solo/duo and another rank in the unfiltered option. This year we’ve seen growing feedback from players around solos and duos matching against Fireteams of 3 and 4, and we’ve been closely monitoring the data at the same time.



Today we’re going to talk about what we’ve done and will be doing to address the feedback.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ADDRESSING THE FEEDBACK</h2>



In July, the services team delivered a backend update that will now factor in a Fireteam’s collective CSR when matching. 



Here’s how it works:



When a Fireteam enters matchmaking, the system will offset the CSR based on the size of the Fireteam (more players in Fireteam means a greater offset). For example, this means that a Fireteam of 4 will match against higher CSR players, but only in the case fireteam sizes are imbalanced between teams. The philosophy behind this is that a Fireteam with 2 or more players will have a greater chance of winning against a team of solos due to the teamwork, coordination, communication, etc that comes with Fireteams. This offset is meant to account for those natural advantages that Fireteams have. 



On top of this, we’re also working on a longer-term solution leveraging Fireteam search restrictions. 



Here’s how it’ll work:



<ul><li>If your CSR is 1500 and above (Onyx), you’ll be unable to search with a Fireteam of 3 or 4, and will be shown an error message.</li><li>This is not based on Fireteam average. If even 1 player on the Fireteam is Onyx and the rest are below Onyx, the Fireteam will not be able to search. </li><li>Effectively, this means that the Ranked Arena playlist will be solos and duos only if you’re an Onyx player.</li></ul>



The reason we’re making this change for Onyx only is because that’s where we see more of these issues, and we still want to encourage the vast majority of players in the playlist to party up with friends. Once this is implemented later this Summer, we will of course monitor feedback and data in order to make further changes if required.

Ranked Arena Party Matching Update

Cyber Showdown II Press Kit

A neon night descends, cold and brittle amidst towering buildings and expansive arcologies, fitfully aglow with immense digital signs that guide the eyes to all kinds of rewards. Electronic beats flow through the city like a heartbeat, and those that gather for this moment—clothed in armor—know that the time has come for a showdown!



Cyber Showdown has returned to Halo Infinite, and this free event brings with it a new 10-tier Event Pass filled with synthwave-themed customization goodness.
