    Look! Halo 4 Achievements are here! Right at the Halo Bulletin!
    So there are a bunch of Halo 4 achievements. I just love trying to earn all the Gamerscore from it so I always try to complete achievements. Well anyway, here you go:
    The Halo Bulletin: 8.22.12

    49 Achievements! Just like Halo Reach. There'll probably be more achievements as Halo 4 gets older and there's DLC packs and all that stuff.

    Bye.

    These achievements are kind of like...meh... You should have to go out of your way for an achievement not "complete a mission"
    Or "change your armor"

    Your going to end up doing all that anyway it is not an achievement.
    Just my two cents.

    Good Point. But I like that when you complete a hard achievement, you just feel good.
    But a bunch of the achievements are.... yeah pretty stupid, like the ones that you listed.

    Hey wait... I just realized... one achievement says that you have to hijack a wraith to destroy four other wraiths... Does that mean you can hijack Wraiths now? Because you can't in Reach.

    Yes you can. Board it from the front and punch the **** out of the driver.

    Sounds like generator defense is back, albeit in a more FF style context. I never got a chance to play it in the Reach beta.

    Me either.

    I don't know why they would take it out it seems like it would be a fun gametype.

    Well,
    I know you can board it and blow it up, but you can't hijack one. The achievements specifically asking that you hijack and use it to blow up other wraiths.

    No board it from the front. Punch the driver untill he dies then get off and get in the wraith.

    I do get what you are saying though but with a vehicle that moves as slow as a wraith I hope you cannot get an option that says " push ? To hijack wraith) and you steal it.

    You don't even have to kill the guy; you can just punch the hatch open, hop off, get on the front without hijacking (just jump on top regularly) and melee him regularly/shoot him until he dies if you want the Wraith to have more health.

    Protip for doing Solo Legendary Tsavo Highway in Halo 3. Wraiths make the second part of that mission simply hilarious.

    What do you mean? Generator Defense shipped with Reach, it's a Firefight gametype.

    On topic: Yes a lot of these are just completion achievements, but that's nothing new, it's always been that way for Halo. I do like the mission specific ones though.

    Halo Reach How To Hijack a Wraith - YouTube

    [br][/br]
    Edited by merge:


    Yeah, but it was a multiplayer gametype too. Invasion variant I believe. Just specifying that the H4 one will be more like the FF one because it's Spartan OPs.

    Next level pro tip: you don't have to board the wraith at all. If you hop on top of it and punch straight down on the hatch door, it still damages the elite underneath and will eventually pop the door off for direct access. This method does the least damage to the wraith, there's no hopping off and back on, and the wraith will politely sit there the whole time while you smack the driver around.

    @WhackyGordon thanks for the video
    (So thats how you hijack a wraith!)

    @Nutduster Thanks for the tip
    (So thats how you hijack it without damaging it that much!)

    Thanks I should try that out in Matchmaking, but they'll probably splatter me before I can do it.

    I wouldn't advise it in matchmaking. It works a lot better in campaign because wraiths are far less likely to try to splatter you, and they stop moving completely when you stand on them.

    Yeah, also AI won't aim downward and blast you off the front. Pretty well everybody in MM knows how to do that nowadays. Jacking a wraith from the front when a human is driving it is suicide.

    I completed that level using the Chopper, like a real man.

    Achievements are all right, nothing great. Also, the gravity hammer and Hunters have been confirmed.
