'''Season 7: Elite''' is a [[season]] for ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', released on [[2021 (real world)#June|June 23, 2021]].{{Ref/Reuse|Release}} As of [[2020|December 2020]], plans had been laid internally at [[343 Industries]] for this season.{{Ref/Site|Id=MCCDevUpdateDec2020|D=28|M=2|Y=2021|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/mcc-development-retrospective-december-2020|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=News, MCC Development Retrospective – December 2020}} This season will notably include long-awaited additions to Elite-focused armor customisation in ''Halo 3'', in the form of seven new harnesses, alongside the four [[Champions Bundle]] armors from ''[[Halo 4]]''{{Ref/Site|Id=MCCCanonFodderMay2021|D=21|M=5|Y=2021|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/art-of-wort|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=News, Art of Wort Canon Fodder}} and the [[Project KEYSTONE|KEYSTONE]] helmet, based on ''[[Halo Infinite]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VII|Mark VII]] helmet, for ''Halo 4'' as an exclusive item in "The Exchange" store.

In addition to the new customization content, Season 7 also introduced changes to the classic ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' graphics to better reflect the original [[Xbox]] version of the game, rather than the [[2003]] [[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|PC port]] which introduced [[List of discrepancies between Halo: Combat Evolved versions|many graphical issues]]. Furthermore, the season also features improvements to the ''[[Halo Online]]'' maps [[Waterfall]] and [[Edge]], which have been added to ''[[Halo 3]]'' matchmaking, and general bug fixes,{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/mcc-development-flighting-updates/3e3252e1-297a-4590-a7ab-67c133b3d37d/posts?page=5|Id=MCCFridayDevBlog|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Forums, MCC Development & Flighting Updates|D=13|M=5|Y=2021}} with Edge being finally added as a playable map with this Season.

The ''Master Chief Collection''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Custom Games Browser, which had previously been briefly tested publicly on retail also launched this season, with support for ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.{{Ref/Site|Id=MCCDevUpdateJune2021|D=11|M=6|Y=2021|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/mcc-development-flighting-updates/3e3252e1-297a-4590-a7ab-67c133b3d37d/posts?page=5#post89|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=MCC DEVELOPMENT & FLIGHTING UPDATES}} Players are now be able to host their own matches available to the public. Other games are eventually planned to be brought to the Custom Games Browser at a later date.

Concurrent to the launch of Season 7, the [[Halo: Combat Evolved Mod Tools|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Mod Tools]] were also launched for players on [[Steam]].

=====Custom Game Browser live for Halo: Reach=====
The long-awaited Custom Game Browser is live for ''Halo: Reach''. Players can use the '''Browse''' menu to find other people’s custom games or the '''Create''' menu to customize and host their own custom game session.

Thank you to the players who helped us test the Custom Game Browser during the scale test. Since then, we improved the experience in many ways:

*Full game sessions now appear at the bottom of the list.
*The '''Session Name''' field now has a longer character limit.
*The game now informs the party leader if they try to join a game session, but a member of the party does not have necessary content installed.
*When “Repeat Game” is enabled, the pause menu now says “Next Game” instead of “End Game”
*Fixed several issues with sorting the list of sessions.
*Made several improvements to how voice and text chat work with parties during gameplay.
*Fixed exploits that allowed known cheaters into sessions.

=====New Halo 3 map: Edge=====
Originally made for Halo Online, the second new map for ''Halo 3'', “Edge,” has been added and can appear in Social Matchmaking. Edge is a symmetrical map that supports all major game variants in ''Halo 3'' with 4 to 12 players.

Fight with sentinel beams and silenced SMGs across an open cliff-side vista and secluded ancient database in this new map on the remote frontier world of Partition.

=====Waterfall and Edge maps added to Social Matchmaking=====
Players may now play on both new ''Halo 3'' maps, “Waterfall” and “Edge,” when queued up in Social Matchmaking. Thank you for the player feedback that helped us make fixes and improve visual polish on both maps before moving them into matchmaking.

=====Firefight matchmaking is now in Social Matchmaking=====
To help give the Firefight community a boost, Firefight matchmaking is now part of the Social Matchmaking flow (you can read the blog post [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/mcc-development-flighting-updates/3e3252e1-297a-4590-a7ab-67c133b3d37d/posts?page=5#post88 here]). We expect this to help in several ways:

*The Firefight game mode will have increased visibility by appearing alongside other social game modes.
*The ''Halo 3: ODST'' and ''Halo: Reach'' Firefight communities will be closer together, improving queue times for everyone. Players can still choose to queue up for only one of the games if they prefer.
*Players can be more specific with the game types they search for.
*This creates the possibility of rotating Firefight options and categories.

=====Better visual authenticity for ''Halo: Combat Evolved''=====
Many graphical updates, from fog and shader effects to original character models and active camo quality, bring ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' even closer to the classic experience. Some updates include:

*Active Camo is closer to the original Xbox appearance, with a darker shade that is less reflective.
*Textures on all maps now display bump maps, which is most noticeable on metal and Forerunner surfaces
*The fog effects across multiple maps now render properly, such as above the canyon in Assault on the Control Room, Two Betrayals, 343 Guilty Spark, and Keyes.
*Covenant shields now react to being shot with plasma weapons by changing color.
*The visual effects of Jackal shields, teleporters, Spirit Dropships, and Cortana’s color pulsing while in the Ring’s control room now match the original Xbox version.
*Flashlight shine distance is further and better represents the distance on original Xbox version.
*Translucent textures such as the windows on Pillar of Autumn are no longer too opaque and now have the correct reflections.
*Captain Keyes’ original model from the Xbox version has returned.
*Layers of detail and reflection are now applied in the correct order on Master Chief's armor, Forerunner doors, Pelican Dropships, and more.
*The screen flash that displays when picking up camo or taking a teleporter is now closer to the original Xbox version.
*Combat Flood forms and health packs now glow the way they did in original Xbox version.

=====''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Hardcore playlist changes=====
We updated the Hardcore settings for ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' based on competitive player feedback to improve this playlist and align it with the modded competitive gameplay experience popularized by the competitive community on Xbox. This includes the following changes:

*Weapon ready effects only play for local players.
*Dropped weapons have disabled collision and material sounds.
*Disabled footstep sounds.
*Killfeed messages only display if they are related to a local player or their teammates.

=====Updates to the Extras menu=====
The Extras menu has been updated to play the terminals and cinematics from ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', ''Halo 2'', ''Halo 4'', and ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' directly within the game instead of linking externally.

The other Extras menu options link externally:
*Credits
*Halo Support site
*''[[Halo: Nightfall]]'' (only visible on the Xbox version of MCC)
*''[[Halo 5: Guardians|Halo 5]]'' (only visible on the Xbox version of MCC)

=====''Halo: Combat Evolved'' mod tools and client support=====
For the first release of MCC’s ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' modding tools, we are including four different programs. Modders may be familiar with a few, but this release includes the most powerful tools available for Halo: Combat Evolved (for advanced users only!)

On top of that, we are releasing zip files of Halo: Combat Evolved’s level scripts and all the tag files that went into building the campaign and multiplayer levels.

These tools and files are being provided as-is, but we plan to make updates over time to address issues we see discussed in the mod community.

The [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/976730/view/3007823106801144958 full blog post on Steam] goes into more detail about these tools.

You can download these tools through Steam.
