And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!!!

Halo: The Master Chief Collection gets Firefight update

Firefight is one of the best modes added to the Halo franchise. It has been sorely missed from previous games, so it's exciting to see 343 Industries give it the attention it deserves. Coming to the MCC is Floodfight. This new mode adds the horrific zombie-like Flood forms to Firefight, updates the enemy's moves to allow them to use vehicles, and even introduces new forms such as the infected civilian, ODST, and Elite.

Beyond Floodfight, there are also improvements coming to many of the titles, including updates to Halo 3 medals, Forge and Mod tools, campaign crossplay with Halo 3 and ODST. 343i also addresses the improvements coming in the future, including Steam Workshop, any remaining customizations, and campaign collectibles.

There are so many improvements coming with this update, so make sure you read about it over on Halo Waypoint.
