BioShock Infinite: Clash in the Clouds (PS3) Gamechive (The O.P.S. Zeal Map: Blue Ribbon Challenges)
"Clash in the Clouds, Map #1: The O.P.S. Zeal, All Blue Ribbon Challenges"—Clash in the Clouds was an add-on "horde" mode to BioShock Infinite, which placed the player (Booker DeWitt with Elizabeth) against waves of Columbian enemies encountered in the main game. Maps were accessed inside the Columbian Archaeological Society hub, where a player could also buy game lore such as character models, concept art, kinetoscopes, songs, and view secret voxophones. Each map (4 in total) contained 15 waves where Silver Eagles, Infusions and pieces of Gear were earned. As per the main game, weapons and Vigors could be upgraded via the Veni! Vidi! Vigor! and Minuteman Armory vending machines. Each wave had a challenge associated with it, which ranged from the simple to the complex, and these "Blue Ribbon Challenges" (60 in total) contained specific wave requirements for completion. This gamechive contains the first set of challenges (1—15), associated with The O.P.S. Zeal map.
