Halo 4 community playlist, new Spartan Ops and new Specializations
The "Community Forge Test" playlist is now online with six new maps created by Halo 4 community members in Forge which were then selected by 343 Industries. All six maps - Despair, Garrotte, Relay, Scythe, Shutout and Simplex - are small to medium-sized creations made for 4 vs 4 combat in Infinity Slayer, Capture the Flag, King of the Hill and SWAT.
Please take note that the "Test" qualifier in the playlist's name as this is 343 Industries' way of working out any bugs or issues with the maps before possibly adding them to regular multiplayer playlists.
For those waiting for the final five episodes of Spartan Ops, you will finally have your wish granted with the launch of Episode 6. The latest episode brings five more missions that pick up with the cliffhanger at the end of Episode 5 before the series took a break.
343 Industries is promising more variety in locations and missions with the final five episodes including the likelihood that the setting will "move off of Requiem."
Expect a ungodly 2.21 GB download from the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Spartan Ops Episodes 6-10 before you start playing.
Monday's update also unlocks two more armor Specializations for everyone that has reached Service Rank 50. These were previously only available to those that received unlock codes for playing the game early.
Pioneer: "Spartan optimization for deployment into uncharted, hostile territory (such as uncolonized worlds or Forerunner constructs like Requiem) for the purpose of gathering and relaying information. The Fast Track armor mod allows Spartans to gain more experiential data from each encounter, effectively ranking up more quickly during the process."
"Pathfinder: Spartan optimization for deep, unconventional deployment within unknown enemy territory and with little to no assistance from command. The Gunner armor mod decreases the time of weapon overheat when occupying a vehicle weapon position, and increases Spartan speed while carrying a detached turret."
Two more specializations will be unlocked on Monday 28th January (Next week) with the last two unlocking on February 4th.

I'm thinking the same, maybe after I max out BF3 though, I REALLY want BF4

Reaiming I went through the Spartan Ops the other night, I highly enjoyed it.
343i is doing a pretty solid job.
I've played most of the episodes, it gets boring after a while.
