The third and final map of the Castle map pack, Daybreak get’s it’s opportunity to shine.

By the looks of this map, it does have a more classic Halo feel to it. I just wish the person doing the touring of the map would have gone inside the bases a little more. We did see Blue base a little, but barely got to see red base. Still from what I saw, there may be some machinima opportunities there for my MAC Rounds series.

I’m betting the Banshee will PWN of this map. (But for the sniper that is…)

Okay, so mouth is sufficiently watering now for all of the maps of Castle. We still have 19 days until the Castle map pack is available for the masses. Look for it on April 8.

Wow, Sparth has really been rolling out the concept art. Here we have the engine room of the Infinity. I love how much of the piece is grayscale, with the background really popping in blue swathes of color. The contrast between the dark workable area of the engine room and the bright “heart” of the ship is striking. And a close up.
For a piece of concept art, this view has some incredible detail.

So Silentium just came out yesterday and there is a code you can get to use on Halo Waypoint with it. This code will unlock XP as well as the video below.

If browsing HaloWaypoint.com you’re going to want to click on the “classified” tab (see below):

From there you will get a screen that gives you a tab to enter a code. Click on that, then enter in the code (to the right of the next pic).

Enjoy the video!

You also get 20,000 XP as well when you enter the code.

OMG, this map is AWESOME! I love the realistic visuals.

Also, this is going to make for one hell of a great machinima map for my “MAC ROUNDS” web series.

What do you think of it by this preview?
