PAX 2012 had a lot of juicy trailers, but one of them got people talking. Killing the opposing team with a flag? Yes, HALO 4 apparently allows you to do that in their Multiplayer mode called Capture the Flag (CTF).

The trailer show at PAX 2012 did highlight the interesting new way to kill, dubbed “Flagsassination”. It’s a unique way to kill the opposing team, being utterly humiliating, taking them down and stabbing them with the flag. In older HALO games, the flag bearer had no way to defend themselves. A plus for holding the flag now.
The trailer also showed the flag bearer with a Magnum. So, I guess now you can go on the offense with the flag pole and a gun in hand. Awesome!
New vehicles, weapons and ways you can kill your opponent in the mutiplayer environment were also shown in the trailer, not to mention a slew of weapons and environmental sound effects too. Did I mention the possibly of new melee killing methods too?
HALO 4 is scheduled to launch on the 6th of November 2012 and is only available on the Xbox.
Enjoy the video trailer!
