After two months and a delivery later, Dust Storm returns to the microphone with Godzilla T to take a speedy look at the jam packed conclusion to Halo Infinite Season 4 and HCS Season 2. As we move into Season 5, Forge has never been more powerful, 343 continues to knock out new content out of the park and HCS will return for a Season 3 in Infinite! There’s so much stuff to bring up in one show we’re going to have to break it down a bit more where appropriate. We definitely recommend checking out our friends at HCS Pro Talk for all the HCS content in the meantime!

Another month of incredible Halo drops and an uptick in population spells some good news for Halo as content, playlists, improvements and more are in full swing. Forge has never give us such quality and diverse maps, the community art is stellar and we are just happy we get to share in it with you all.

The mid-season update for Halo Infinite Season 4 brings along with it several new things including a reimaging of Countdown from Halo: Reach called Dredge. Forge water gets an upgrade with reactive surfaces and several bug and quality of life fixes makes playing multiplayer a constantly refreshing experience. Halo: Outcasts has released and gets Dust another book behind. We’ll be off next week, but don’t miss our Fraggin’ Fridays on Halo Infinite if you’re looking for a group to play all the latest content with!

It’s been a few weeks since our last show while Dust Storm was redoing his streaming set up, so there’s a lot of news to catch up on. The latest Community Spotlight, Forge Features, HCS Event and book (yes, this means Dust is falling even more behind) is up for discussion along with a little twist. While we’ve haven’t recorded the podcast in the last few weeks, we have been playing the Cursed Halo mod, which is very much what it sounds like. Strap in for a short, but dense episode.

In a double surprise this week, we got a new Halo Infinite playlist drop and a season’s worth of content in MCC. Squad Battles brings Three of the best Halo 3 Forged maps to Halo Infinite in classic 8v8, which has probably been the best playlist addition to Infinite yet! And on the MCC side of things, the Digsite team has outdone themselves over the last 6 months. There’s way too much stuff to list it all here, so just go check Waypoint for the incredible amount of content that just released for MCC, including Theater for Halo 4, Custom Controller Mapping, 8-Player Firefight and Halo 3 Escalation Slayer.

After a week into Season 4 of Halo Infinite’s multiplayer, we’re already getting new content with a new Forge map Solitude and a surprise delivery of Mini Slayer! With the amount of content that’s been delivered and the great reception of new modes, this season has turned out to be one of the best received. With the quarterly cadence established, it’s refreshing to look forward to a steady flow of content.

On this special episode, we dive into Halo Fan production November Black. Taking inspiration from Halo lore, November Black is a short film set to follow ODSTs fighting of Insurrectionists before the events of Halo. We’re pleased to welcome Vulture Productions and returning guest Mooreshots on to talk about this project’s inception, timelines and goals.

The run up to Halo Infinite’s Season 4 is just around the corner. We have the details laid out all on Halo Waypoint where we have lined up next week Infection making it’s return with a thematic reintroduction. Along with Infection, we’re getting one new Arena map: Forest and one new BTB map: Scarr. Also coming with Season 4 is the Threat Seeker and Quantum Translocator, two new pieces of Spartan equipment. Career Ranks makes it’s debut along with a new Battle Pass and plenty of quality of live improvements.

It’s about time we wrapped up our Halo Infinite campaign discussion as we cover the final two missions: House of Reckoning and Silent Auditorium. While the lore into Zeta Halo’s past was not touched on as much as lore fans may have wanted, there’s definitely tidbits that make us excited for what is set up for the Master Chief’s next adventure. The Banished were a respectable and formidable antagonist and the Endless throws an interesting new avenue that continues to expand the Halo Universe. We’re happy to welcome back PrestigeAce as a guest on our show as part of his Patronage.

The second installment of Spartan Chatter bring us one step closer to Season 4 content in Halo Infinite! Career Ranks, Plaza Remake, Infection and Cross Core are all coming June 20th as the summer kicks off, and yes, their painfully aware of all the desync issues, crashes and settings resets plaguing players. Join us on Friday nights at 8:30PM Eastern time to play Halo Infinite multiplayer with the community!
