Halo 4 is 343 Industries' first take on Microsoft's iconic FPS franchise, and the new team is hoping to shake up the formula with a few new features like Spartan Ops. Of course, fans are curious to find out how multiplayer will change. 343 is introducing "Specializations," essentially a class system to let you tailor your Spartan to your liking.
According to Halo Waypoint, once you've reached the standard level 50 with your Spartan, the 8 classes will let you play for an additional 10 levels per class, gaining cosmetic equipment and a special perk along the way. Only two will be available at launch, while the rest will be unlocked later. Limited Edition purchasers can use all eight from the start. You'll also be able to change load-outs mid-match.
