Campaign scoring: Difference between revisions

{{Era|RW}}

'''Campaign Scoring''', also referred to as '''meta-game''', is an optional game feature for the [[campaign]] modes of ''[[Halo 3]]''<ref name="MM101">[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=h3campaign '''Bungie.net''': ''Halo 3 How-to: Campaign Scoring 101'']</ref>, ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', ''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]'', ''[[Halo: Spartan Strike]]'', and in all five campaigns of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''.

Points are earned by killing enemies, with the player shooting the killing shot (or throwing the killing grenade) earning the points. If a player is driving a vehicle, any kills by AI passengers will earn the player full points. If the player or party reverts to the last checkpoint (through death or options menu), they will restart with the number of points they had when they hit the checkpoint minus a 25 point penalty for each restart.

Campaign scoring in ''Halo 3: ODST'' is based on that found in ''Halo 3'' -enemies award the same number of points- yet also represents a significant step forward. Most noticeable is that many more [[List of Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST Medals|medals]] are awarded in campaign and [[Firefight]]. In ''Halo 3'', only eight medals are awarded in campaign. In ''ODST'', most of the medals found in ''Halo 3'' multiplayer can be awarded in campaign; specifically the spree, weapon spree, multi-kill and style medals. These medals provide score bonuses; the more difficult the medal, the more points awarded. Bonuses for killing and weapon sprees are particularly large, and can be essential in meeting par scores. One noticeable difference with the multi-kill medals is that only a single multi-kill medal is awarded at a time, unlike in ''Halo 3'' multiplayer, where a player is awarded all of the multi-kill medals. For example, if a player earns an [[Overkill]] they will receive only that medal and will not also receive a [[Double Kill]] and [[Triple Kill]].

*Meta in ancient Greek means "after", so meta-game means "after-game", or in a more philosophical sense, "the game behind the game". In the case of campaign scoring, you playing a ''meta-game'' in which you are trying to get as high score as possible, and to accomplish that, you are playing the ''actual campaign game'' -- in other words, the Campaign Metagame is a game about a game.
