Halo 4 Exile Map Strategy

The Exile map is asymmetrical and focuses on a wide array of game types, especially Capture The Flag. Exile has great focus on vehicular combat with a variety of vehicles present in the map.

While players can play tag on their vehicles on the canyon path surrounding the map, others can go directly to the middle to face off in some close-ranged gameplay.

Power Weapons
Sniper Rifle: There are two sniper rifles in the map and both are located inside team team’s initial spawn points.

Tips and Strategy
In contrast of previous maps, Exile actually demands players to equip themselves with long-ranged weapons. The map focuses on mobility, and its large scale gives players a great chance to position themselves in a good vantage spot.

Try to grab a vehicle to reach those spots quickly. You can even run them down if you want. The worst thing you can possibly do in this map is stand like an idiot on the open ground.
