CHANGE.

Enter The Exchange if you missed out on earlier customization rewards.

Players can now access free content from the past that they might have missed out on, along with some brand-new items, at The Exchange, a brand-new store that rotates every operation. This includes past Twitch drops, exclusive limited-time login bonuses, partner promotional items, and rewards that were previously connected to Halo Infinite’s free Event tracks.

Spartan Points, a free currency that can be obtained in three main ways, are used to purchase goods.

Upon finishing your first Daily Challenge, you will receive 250 SP instead of XP.

In lieu of a miscellaneous reward, completing the weekly Ultimate Reward will yield 1,000 SP. item for customization).

Up to 15,000 SP (replacing various rewards) will be available on Operations Reward tracks. additional rewards).

Things won’t be “going away,” eliminating the opportunity to obtain them, when The Exchange refreshes; instead, they’ll still be available to buy with Spartan Points via the customization menus (just like bundles do after they rotate out of the Shop).

Please let us know what you think after you’ve had a chance to test out the Exchange; we’ll be closely monitoring community feedback and in-game metrics!

Visit our Exchange Overview blog for a more thorough explanation.

IMPRINT UPDATEES.

You can play with some new toys in Forge with this Halo Infinite update.

FLOOD is the new Forge Palett.

Forge is now home to the parasite.

With over 100 new objects, the Flood palette will help Forgers turn their maps into festering hives. This will allow players to recreate historical locations (for example, a Flood-infested High Charity) or entirely new places that have been turned into twisted wasteland.

ALIEN WORLD is the subject of the latest Forge Pack.

The galaxy is a huge place full of magnificent and amazing alien worlds.

With the Alien World object palette, which includes more than 150 new objects, players can add alien-themed plants, trees, flowers, and even old stone structures to their maps’ environments to increase their visual diversity.

FURTHER UPDATES.

Forge has also received some other updates to improve object options and scripting in addition to these new palettes.

See our Forge blog for a detailed look at these extra components.

Updates for the Sandbox.

Based on player activity and community feedback, Halo Infinite’s sandbox is undergoing some tuning adjustments.

PISTOL PLASMA.

The king is back! Based on your feedback, we are providing you with the ability to temporarily EMP (yes, you read that correctly) vehicles using the overcharged bolt of the Plasma Pistol.

EMP functionality on cars has been restored.

SIDEKICK MK50.

We wanted to respond to player feedback regarding the time-to-kill when facing a Sidekick, even though we understand that the weapon’s rapid-fire functionality is fundamental to its identity and feels fantastic.

Rounds per second dropped from 6 points to 5 points.

S7 SNIPER.

The community’s feedback has consistently expressed that they felt that the sniper took a little too long to ready up after being picked up. We aimed to address this by reducing the sniper’s ready-up time, which should make it feel snappier. We’re hoping that this will make it possible to watch even more exciting sniper highlights.

Scale 1 >> 1.2 (quicker ready-up time) for the ready first playback speed.

INDERSHOT.

Although the Cindershot is a fun and effective weapon, we admit that it can be annoying to have the explosion’s impulse take you in a different direction. We removed the gravitational effect that would pull players in all directions and marginally lowered the rate of fire in order to allay that annoyance and respond to player feedback. By doing this, we hope to preserve the power weaponry of the Cindershot while simultaneously making the combat experience better on all fronts.

Take out the inverted impulse effect.

From 1 point 33 to 1 point 1, the rounds per second decreased.

GRAVITY HAMMER.

We wanted to address this in the smallest possible way because we thought the range at which the Gravity Hammer can completely destroy an enemy was too great.

reduced elimination range by a small amount.

radius low: 1point 25 >> 1point 75.

2 >> 2 points on the radius high.

PIKE GRENADE.

We thought that altering the detonation behavior of spike grenades might make them more viable because they have been performing poorly in the main gameplay loop. Our first action was to stop the Spike Grenade from detonating in midair so that it would reach its target. In addition, the Spike Grenade will explode faster than other grenades in the sandbox once it reaches its target.

The explosion timer now begins when at rest rather than instantly.

Timer dropped 1 point 8 >> 1 point 2 seconds (low and high).

BTB STURDY.

The Big Team Battle playlist was updated in February with some incredible new community maps. Many people requested that those maps be added to other BTB offerings following that update, and we’re happy to confirm that when you see BTB Heavies again later this operation, the map pool will have grown as we add all the BTB refresh maps! You’ll be able to experience:.

perseverance.

Selfishness.

Notice of death.

shelter.

Head of thunder.

Heavy weapon spawns and more vehicle destruction mean chaos is to be expected.

Heavies also features the much-loved One Flag CTF mode, where you can play tug of war and attempt to capture the flag.

Get your reflexes primed and ready to throw yourself into the fight because Operation: Banished Honor is going to be fun!

The third life in the Waypoint Chronicle.

Though that is only the official narrative, Spartans are frequently regarded as uncorruptible symbols of virtue. A few individuals are recognized as instances of ex-Spartans who have turned anti-Spartan and committed themselves to various causes; one such ex-Spartan has embarked on an entirely different route.

Our next Waypoint Chronicle, which takes place right after the audio drama Hunt the Truth, will be released next week and can be found on Halo Waypoint, as well as free downloads in PDF and audiobook formats on YouTube.

YET TO COME.

We have a lot more planned, including the much awaited Match Composer functionality and more operations. This update is just the start.

TENRAI IV is in operation.

JULY 2–4; JUNE 4.

With a new Operation Pass featuring customization rewards, a Tenrai-themed Exchange redesign, and new Shop bundles, Tenrai is coming back.

SPARTAN SURPLUS is in operation.

JULY 2–30.

Alongside a new armor piece with a Mark IV theme comes an Exchange update featuring vintage tactical gear and more!
