Resident technical expert Stephen Loftus stopped by to let us know he did the hard work of figuring out the rotational dynamics of Zeta Halo from Halo Infinite. Turns out a day in the day/night cycle is an hour of real time. Neat! (fuchsdh 21:00:08 +0…

There have been a lot of recreations of Halo weaponry over the years, but this effort by B Squared Mfg is one of the most impressive I’ve seen. The resulting BR55 Battle Rifle looks very nifty, and comes with a working ammo counter to boot. Thanks for…

343 Industries dropped their March Update preview for Halo Infinite, coming on the 19th. It features an overhauled networking model and anti-cheat, weapon tuning and balance changes, and more. Check out what’s cooking! (fuchsdh 15:16:52 +0000)

After an 8-year hiatus, Stephen Loftus is back with around 100 new Halo signs, downloadable in high quality if you so desire. Unfortunately, the page navigation is somewhat clunky (100% my fault, not Stephen’s, it was built well over a decade ago), so…

The quality of Halo Infinite Forgers continues to astound me, and there’s a new crop of BTB maps arriving in the game. I’m super-excited for the overgrown Headlong remake. Check them out in the video below or read the blog for more details. (fuchsdh…

Postmortem has been producing a Youtube channel focused on media for a while now, and he dropped by to mention his latest video is all about the history of humanity in the Halo universe, starting from almost the very beginning. You can watch it on You…

The evocatively-named Infinite “Content Update 29” brings with it a bunch new cosmetic options, and there’s a trailer embedded below showing it off. (fuchsdh 20:03:10 +0000)

Hyokin has been poking through Halo 3’s files and came across a phone model, apparently unused in the final game itself, with the Bungie Seventh Column symbol added. A fun little find! (fuchsdh 15:12:13 +0000)

Infinite’s CU29 update drops at the end of this month, bringing with it a new map, “Illusion”. This looks like it’ll be a fun, CE-inspired trip to an ONI research site. In addition to screenshots, there’s an interview with the developers. Check it out…

This is really neat. DiscipleN2k dropped by with a link to a video by MitchMakesGames interviewing longstanding community member BOLL, who years ago made the Warthog Jump Flash game that still graces HBO. In addition to learning more about BOLL’s exp…

Apparently, many of the Phantoms in Halo 3 are piloted by invisible Brutes you can sometimes punch out to drop the craft. Who knew? Thanks, SNIPE 316. (fuchsdh 20:35:36 +0000)

This is nifty. Mint Blitz has a cool video demonstrating Halo modders’ efforts with Halo 2, recreating the classic experience as well as a bunch of cut content (and Infinite’s tank gun, to boot.) See if it interests you and then check out the mod! (…

The 24th Community Cartography feature is live on Waypoint, and it’s got some pretty great gems to try out, from a recreation of Assault on the Control Room, recreating the cutscene fight at the beginning of Infinite and… a turn-based tabletop game?…
