I would probably never even attempt it again if that happened to me.
The last achievement I had this much trouble getting was You Ate All the Chips, but I have captured 4 simultaneously a few times since then.
Last achievement I got was 5 splatters on an Anniversary Map last night in the GAF BTB party. I straight up forgot that one existed, probably because it's only possible on 2 of the Anniversary maps, so when we started mowing the other team down on Headlong I just started driving the ghost around.
I got that achievement without even playing the DLC. I just won a regular game of stockpile, on a non-DLC map.
Which is great, but now my gamerscore isn't in an increment of 5 anymore!
It's like they want me to buy maps I'll never play.

Ones a halo game and the other is a shadowrun ripoff.
Yeah, the Noble and original Defiant achievements can be gotten on any map. The Anniversary and AnniDefiant achievements are locked to only Anniversary maps and Defiant maps.
Tunavi that was outstanding. Take a bow son.
Heh, typically McFarlane will title their figures with the name of the armour. Do we take from that that this amour is called "Warrior"?

Hopefully they've increased the likelihood of getting DLC maps in the regular playlists otherwise we may never see them again. And those last lot of Defiant achievements will move ever closer to impossible.

Hopefully BTB is just all DLC required now. You can also pretty much say goodbye to getting Breakpoint in Invasion again.
Now that we know H4 is going to gate multiplayer to those with hard drives, there will probably be a knock on effect of since everyone in multi has HDDs, more people are likely to own DLC.

I'm never going to max out Reach, I have like 16 achievements left to get in it :lol
Also yeah, we knew the helmet was called Warrior.

Oh god yes. Just watched it. :O
Those three achievements were particularly hard to get with the old playlists, not because they were hard to do, but because of the unlikelihood of the appropriate map and gametype combo coming up in matchmaking. Now they are many times less likely to appear.
All Alone requires a Zombies game on Condemned. I've never had a zombies game on Condemned. The one time it appeared as an option, people voted for Boardwalk. I know for sure that when I finally do get it to come up, I'll spawn as a bloody zombie.
So what happened to Squad Slayer.
That's too bad.
I have only 1 left for Reach but I don't think I will touch that game ever again so it'll have to be the first of my Halo games that I don't get every single one on. I would go back in for it if it was easy to get, but getting a zombies+Anniversary match itself seems like too much work. Oh well.
Forever grey.
What if they could all be done offline or in single player modes. What if they didn't require online MP. What if.
Infection is supposed to be in Anniversary FFA. So you've got something like 24 hours to make one last good effort at it, because you're probably going to have a low chance of getting Anni at all in Living Dead.
Also if they don't do silly stuff like locking generic actions to specific maps again.
Call of Duty 4's were all offline. Unfortunately that game bombed and went nowhere, so 343 would never do something awesome like that.

Good luck getting Infection in the Anni FFA playlist.
I swear that it's like a plague when I go in by myself. Achievement party? Enjoy Slayer on Prisoner. Or Slayer DMRs on Prisoner. Or Elite Slayer on Prisoner.

Brilliant.
I say you're full of it.
Last time I went into Anniversary FFA without an achievement party
And two games right before it
edit: well I guess I had one HaloGAFer with me on those, but yeah, I have no idea why it just kept offering us Slayer on everything last night.
In about 10 minutes, I'm getting on Reach. I'll go right to Anniversary FFA. And if TU Zombies gets voted in first game, I'll assume Fracas was preventing it from showing up.
6/23
Yeah, that shit's been fixed by now.
Dude knows how to break games.

I like how the Sniper Rifle on that figure is based on an already outdated model.
Also just realized that also means that TU Infection no longer exists in matchmaking as of Tuesday. Now I have to find and save that one too.

Confirmed since E3 it was called Warrior.

They got rid of the wire and slightly changed the scope as you can see in the UNSC weapons video. The figure's sniper still has the wire, and presumably the old scope (not that you could really tell at that scale anyways).

What happens do you have, how many grenades do you have, and what skulls if any do you have on? Whatever you have will determine the best course of action. Usually it's either walk to the back of the room and take the Flood as they come or charge the exit (works best with rockets).
Wait. Action Sack is getting canned?!

Fucking bloom.
Fucking armor abilities.
Fucking slow movement speed.
Fucking nuke grenades.
Fucking jetpacks. God I hate jetpack.
Fuck why am I playing Power Slayer on Uncaged? All I want is fucking Boom Ball.
Holy fuck I have the pro-pipe. Okay, where is a dude...oh, hey, it's another jetpacker...I JUST FUCKING PRO-PIPE'D YOU OUT OF MIDAIR AND I AIN'T EVEN ON HEAT, YOU JERK.

Yup.
84 days. Stay strong.
I wish TU had been put into the standard Team Slayer playlists. I doubt the complaints would have been huge. Hopefully TU's in Halo 4 are universal. When they aren't, it just increases the gap between the playlists.

Nice! I'm going through it on Legendary now, actually. Only up to third level but I'm getting there, nonetheless. Still have a quite a few achievements to get before I'm 1000/1000 though.
Yeah. At first it was a bit jarring, but I've actually grown to like the look.

6 total grenades (2 plasma), pistol and shotgun. No skulls. I can make a quick run to go get more pistol ammo and a health pack (have several that are still accessible that I left behind earlier in the mission), but the number of bars doesn't matter all that much. Once they get your shield down, it doesn't take much more to drop you.
