Halo: Combat Evolved revamped the first-person shooter genre of games much the same way as Half Life 2 revolutionized it. Halo 4 further pushed the iconic visual style and challenging AI of enemies, while still polishing the amazing gunplay and the design of environments and enemies. However, it’s the first Halo game not developed by Bungie, and the story is focused on the Forerunner aspect of the Halo universe.
The single-player campaign still remains the cornerstone of Halo 4 shooter, while introducing new enemies as the Forerunner background of the Halo universe is finally explored. Along with split screen, Halo 4 greatly extended the multiplayer. Previous instalments featured a rehashing of single-player maps, but Halo 4 built them from the ground up specifically to increase the frenzied action of multi-player combat. Furthermore, the 343 Industries cleverly integrated multiplayer into the storyline by designing it as a War Games simulation. The entire gaming industry is moving in the direction of online multiplayer shooter action where also online slot machines are adapting in the same direction. A great example is the iron man slot by playtech where rumours say they will also develop a halo slot machine. That may be unfortunate for some, but Halo 4 saw the trend coming by introducing a number of frustration-reducing features. Chief among them being the Random Ordnance mechanic, which prevented players from spawning at fixed weapon and equipment spawns. This greatly increased the dynamism of gameplay and increased the importance of player skill.

. My experience with vector graphics was very challenging yet interesting. We worked on learning about tracing which to my opinion is the most difficult. We also learned about fill and stroke. Fill is the color inside the lining of the portrait and stroke is the color of the lining of the portrait. But tracing takes most time. For practicing we played this "Bezier" game. We trace different objects with this other vector item called the pen tool. Me and the pen tool aren't very compatible. On the Bezier game I couldn't even get through the tutorial. It's frustrating but it helps a lot with design stuff for and apps, games, posters and more. Vector has a lot more tools too. They have tools like mesh, shape builder, pencil tool, and more. A vector based project we did was making a cheeseburger in Adobe Illustrator. It was really simple. I've taught myself some new tricks with shape builder. I believe the hardest part about that project was the meshing but it all turned out fine.
