Halo Infinite M247 HMG: How To Get A Kill
The Halo Infinite M247 HMG weapon is stumping players because for a weekly challenge where you need to get a kill with it. If you're wanting to level up your battle pass in the Halo Infinite multiplayer, then the only current way is to complete challenges relating to game modes, wins, and weapons. The M247 HMG is one of the returning weapons in the game, having been in every entry in the franchise so far. It's also only found on a select few maps that tend to be on the larger side, so not all players are running into it. If you need the rundown on the Halo Infinite M247 HMG including how it works and how to get a kill with it, then make sure to read on.

Halo Infinite M247 HMG: What Is It And Where Can It Be Found?
Click to enlargeAs one of the returning weapons, it should be familiar to many players. The M247 HMG is a mounted turret weapon, frequently found on the back of Warthogs and also in strategic defence positions on some maps. It uses kinetic damage, meaning it's most effective against unarmoured opposition, effectively turning them into shredded pulled pork.
The larger Big Team Battle maps are where it always spawns, such as Behemoth, Fragmentation, High Power, Deadlock, so make sure you queue in the correct playlists. If you're unfamiliar with those maps, we have a Halo Infinite maps list to help players familiarise themselves before diving in.
It's quite a hefty weapon and can tear through Spartans with ease if you land all your shots. Most of the time you'll have to use it in a stationary position or with a driver to carry you round, but you can pull it off the mount and walk around with it, though at a much slower rate than usual.
