Redfall co-op comes with a significant caveat if you aren’t the host
A screen capture from the Redfall gameplay reveal.

Redfall's cooperative gameplay comes with a pretty big caveat – you'll only get credit for beating the mission as the host.

Following its gameplay reveal at the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase, Redfall has been quite the topic of conversation. And for good reason, as it promises an open-world take on the classic Arkane Studios level design, tons of unique gameplay elements, and cooperative play for up to four players. Unfortunately, while speaking to IGN after the game's reveal, game designer Harvey Smith made it clear that campaign co-op progress is only awarded to the host after the completion of a mission.

Halo Infinite: All audio log locations

Halo lore has become so much larger than just the games. Even after just the first entry, Halo: Combat Evolved, the universe was expanded into multiple books, comics, and other media that expanded upon the deep lore the games only scratched the surface of. Even ignoring all that extra content, Halo Infinite is technically the sixth mainline game starring Master Chief, plus there's Halo: Reach, and the two Halo Wars games that also factor into the story. If you haven't kept up, jumping into Halo Infinite can be a little rough.

To help give context to all the new fans, or old fans who aren't diving deep into the expanded Halo universe, Halo Infinite has tucked away a series of audio logs to help give context for what exactly is happening in the game. These logs are recorded by all the major factions in the game, including the UNSC, the Banished, and even other Spartans. There are dozens to find and are all worth listening to, which makes it that much more frustrating that they aren't identified on your map. To get the whole picture of what's really happening on Zeta Halo in Halo Infinite, follow along to see every audio log location in the game.
