We caught up with the lovely folks at 343 industries to talk to them about the newest Halo game to come out of the gaming industry\u2019s most successful event. In doing so, we learned one of the most surprising and shocking things to ever have transpired in the Halo universe.<\/p>\n<p>As shown in the reveal trailer, the newest Halo game will have dynamic wind that will only affect UNSC weapons and robes.<\/p>\n<p>Longtime fans of the series know how big of an impact this is. In a way, it\u2019s a callback to Halo 2\u2019s curving bullets, but the control is given to the scripting engine of the dynamic wind as opposed to the player\u2019s strafing movements. Pressing 343 industries for specific examples, they told us that shooting UNSC weapons across the map would be much harder. A sniper rifle that was placed over an enemy\u2019s visor on the top middle hill of Ragnarok from blue base would now hit their codpiece, or go between their arm and torso instead of turning into a headshot, depending on the direction and speed of the dynamic wind at the time the shot was fired.<\/p>\n<p>Upon asking why, we were given the answers that <span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><strong>\u201clong range combat is too last generation, we feel we needed to make ranged combat much more rewarding by increasing the challenge\u201d<\/strong><\/span>, followed by \u201cwe believe that by putting the Battle Rifle to a 4-shot kill in our latest title update, we are paving the way for the newest generation of close quarters combat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, when we pressed on the UNSC weapons no longer being hitscan, if the wind velocity would be displayed on the player\u2019s Heads-Up Display, and any non-UNSC weapons affected by the upcoming changes, we were given a straight \u201cWe can neither confirm nor deny this at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>HFFL:<\/strong> <\/span>Again, i think this is a GREAT inclusion. It now means that there should be a further skill gap between okay and great snipers. Hopefully this will also mean that people just won&#8217;t be able to sit back all game and snipe away. Nothing bothers me more than a team mate who does this, especially in an objective game.<\/p>\n<p>I want to thank my friend\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><strong>PENSHALO<\/strong><\/span> friend for passing this story on to me.<span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/confirmedgaming.tumblr.com\/post\/53366765777\/next-halo-confirmed-to-have-dynamic-wind-gameplay\">Source link<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>-Sal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If the following article is to be believed and true then we are going to get what I think is a much needed improvement to the Halo franchise&#8230; Confirmed Gaming here, reporting from outside of Los Angles.
