If you are a hard core, regular "Halo" player, you will be happy to know that the list of achievements for the upcoming FPS title, from 343 Industries and Microsoft Studios, has been revealed.
The main campaign appears to include eight missions, the last of which will unlock the usual difficulty based end-game rewards. Be prepared, once again, to hunt down terminals. What's more, certain tasks that need to be completed within each level for extra game-score exist, which includes finding and accessing Master Chief's records during the game's opening chapter.
Some of the achievements include Dawn - Complete Mission 1 on any difficulty (10G), Requiem - Complete Mission 2 on any difficulty (10G), Forerunner - Complete Mission 3 on any difficulty (10G), Infinity - Complete Mission 4 on any difficulty (10G), Reclaimer - Complete Mission 5 on any difficulty (10G) etc. Check out this link for a complete list of achievements.
"Gamerscore, and collecting the breadcrumb-like achievements that augment that magical number, has evolved into an integral part of gaming. Developing and designing these game-specific challenges might seem simple but is quite a bit more complex once you begin digging into the psychology of a gamer," community manager Jessica Shea states on Halo Waypoint.
Shea also averred that their "primary goal" was to boost replay value and reward milestones. Living up to the Halo tradition of bizarre names featured on their list as well.
"Our primary goal when creating Halo 4's achievements was to reward milestones and increase replay value while balancing both difficulty and the breadth of game modes. Our secondary goal was to live up to Halo tradition with weird ass names for some of them (hello, The Dongblainer!). While you will only be able to speculate on the exact nature of some of these achievements, here's a peek at their very basic in-game descriptions."
"Halo 4" is set for a Nov. 6 release, exclusively for the Xbox 360.
