Halo 4 War Games Daily Challenges - 1/1/13

Please subscribe above this and/or follow me on twitter! Have any ideas or comments about the challenges? Post them down below! 

The Challenges:
Deadeye - Kill 12 Players with a headshot. - 1350 XP
To score a headshot in War Games, you will need a headshot capable weapon. In Halo 4, these include the DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle), the BR (Battle Rifle), the Magnum Pistol, the Sniper Rifle, the Covenant Carbine, the Beam Rifle, the Light Rifle, and the Binary Cannon. The easiest way to score these headshots will be in a gametype like SWAT where almost all of the kills are headshots. You do not need twelve in a single game so you can just play normally while you amass these headshots since you need to win nine matches of Capture the Flag today anyway. If you are not going for that challenge, than, again, SWAT is your best bet.

Raise the Flag - Win 9 matchmaking Capture the Flag matches. - 2750 XP
New year, same crappy challenges. They have to start changing these soon, as these are not really challenges, but just annoyances now. Anyway, Capture the Flag is a gametype where you need a communicative team to help you capture the flag, but also defend you own flag. The one shitty thing about capture the flag is that is often goes down to the time limit with no one getting the required five scores to win it. Most of the maps are simply too big for that. So, one way to speed it up is to pick smaller maps. Now, I would suggest taking a lot of breaks while working on this challenge as it will take a long time to get through this many games. Expect that this challenge may take up to eighteen games to complete.
