Halo 4

Halo 4 is a first-person shooter game developed by 343 Industries exclusively for the Xbox 360. The seventh installment in the Halo series, and the fourth major title, it was later released on Xbox One as part of the Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

The game begins 4 years after the ending of Halo 3, and marks the return of the Master Chief, a cybernetically-enhanced supersoldier.  Set mainly on a Forerunner planet, where Master Chief encounters the collection of alien races known as the Covenant and ancient warriors of the Forerunner empire known as the Prometheans, Master Chief is accompanied by the artificial intelligence construct Cortana.

Enemies

You will encounter a variety of enemies in the different modes of Halo 4. They will primarily be split into two categories based on their origins. The Covenant were the primary antagonists of every Halo game up to Halo 4. While they appear in Halo 4, it is unclear the role they will play, their importance, or even how they found the planet that you've stumbled upon.

  • — Covenant
  • — Promethean

Weapons

There are some new aditions joining the return of many of the most iconic weapons in the Halo franchise. Like previous Halo games, weapons will dictate much of how you play your game and familiarity with how they work and how to find them is integral to your success. Following will be a list of known weapons from the classics like the Assault Rifle and Plasma Pistol to the newer Forerunner weapons like the Scattergun. 

  • — UNSC/Human
  • — Covenant
  • — Forerunner
  • — Miscellaneous
  • — Guardians

Vehicles

Vehicles have always been an integral part of the Halo universe and matchmaking in particular. For large scale games, it is sometimes infeasible to run across the map rather than driving. Because of this and the unique qualities of each vehicle in halo, they have become a much beloved function of the game, serving important purposes while still being unique enough to personify certain styles of play (or even by a playstyle in their own right).

  • — UNSC
  • — Covenant

Multiplayer

Is there multiplayer in Halo 4? Yes there is. Multiplayer returns to Halo 4 with a large number of small tweaks that leave you playing games you know but in ways you always wanted to play. Like the Halo games that came before, there will be a large variety of maps and gametypes to play against friends in. There are even a few completely new gametypes like Infinity Slayer and the episodic, co-operative Spartan Ops mode.

Customization

Halo 4 will allow you to customize your Spartan IV used in War Games (Matchmaking) and Spartan Ops in a variety of different ways. You'll be able to aquire different pieces of armor through leveling up, achieving certain goals in your specializations or other methods.

Story

Four years after the end of the Covenant War, Cortana has awoken the legendary Master Chief within the battered and stranded remains of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn. In front of them looms Requiem, a Forerunner world unlike any other, home to a power far greater than anything humanity has ever faced before. The Chief must now fight his way through enemies, both new and familiar, to uncover secrets one hundred thousand years old.

Soundtrack

The Halo 4 soundtrack has been produced by composer Neil Davidge of electronic hip-hop band Massive Attack. As well as the Standard Edition, there will be a Special Edition remix including artists such as Apocalyptica, DJ Skee, Hundred Waters and more.

Terminal Locations

The first terminal in the game can be found on the second mission (there isn't one on the first mission). At the very end of the level, you'll find a couple of Hunters fighting against some Sentinels. Kill the Hunters and then you'll enter a Forerunner structure. Walk down the long hallway. Towards the end will be a ramp leading up  to a large elevator and under the ramp will be your first terminal.
