Halo 4 War Games Daily Challenges - 12/30/12

The Challenges:
In Your Face - Earn 12 CQC Medals. - 14700 XP
Strangely, there are only three close quarters combat medals in Halo 4. These are the Melee, Beatdown, and Bulltrue Medals, though Assassinations do not count for this challenge even though they should. Now, you simply need twelve today, not twelve in a single game, but you are being directed to win nine Flood matchmaking games in War Games for the "Infected" challenge. That is a great place to get Melee and Bulltrue Medals. You can probably take in about five or six a game so expect this challenge to take about two to three games to complete. Regicide is another good option as long as you are on a small map.

Infected - Win 9 matchmaking Flood matches. - 2750 XP
Hey, like usual, 343 is expecting you to spend all day in Halo 4 thanks to challenges like this. I would tend to say "No thanks" but at least the "In Your Face" challenge makes this slightly more bearable. Now, Flood is a technically a Free-for-all mode though you will see yourself divided by teams. Unlike Reach, the Flood/Zombies are much more powerful in Halo 4 thanks to the thruster pack and the seemingly longer lunge range of the sword. As well, zombies also have shields so if you are one, hope is not lost. If you have a lot of campers, make use of invisibility so you can surprise them. If you are a survivor, make sure you utilize the Magnum at range and the Shotgun close up. Nine matches will take while to win, but it is doable if you started earlier.
