In all the hype of the map pack this might get overlooked, but everyone go try out Firefight versus, its like a super awesome fun version of doubles. Its a bit of a shooting gallery because Spartans are really strong but its fun.

Hayo!

For everyone who has the maps already: is Tempest the standout favorite, or do you prefer one of the other maps? Looking forward to playing them eventually.

 

[Kujo]

Good to hear the maps seem to be good, I'll need to wait a couple days to grab a MSP card

Does anyone know the conditions for the Stockpile achievement?

Apparently your team just needs to get a flag from each of the (four?) flag spawn locations scored at the same time in a single flag round. Then everyone on the team should get the achievement.

Tempest definitely seems to be the best for sure. It's like Standoff with a hint of Valhalla. Both were my favorite maps from Halo 3.

[Hey You]

Is the Grab Bag playlist just Firefight versus? Or does it change?

The Description states "These playlists are available for a limited time only. Get 'em while they're hot!"

Dax, what are you talking about?

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Thanks a bunch Sai Kun, you are awesome!

Ive been away from Reach's multiplayer for a while, but this is the perfect day to get back into it. Map pack AND Firefight versus, salivating. Cant wait for the December playlist update either.

MANY thanks again Sai Kun!

You didn't try this one, clearly

If I knew you better, I'd start begging.

ffuuuuu WAYPOINT posted a code and i missed it.... sad panda.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Tempest would be the best map in the game if it wasn't for the framerate issues .

Ugh, this is one thing I am really angry at Bungie for, we go from H3 and H2, with very little if no framerate problems. I am one who doesn't really notice stuff like this and tearing in games, but in Reach it is actually noticeable and really takes away from the fun. I wish they could of kept it constant and 30 FPS even if that meant reducing some graphical areas. :/

The plan is to rotate playlists. So, you might get Versus for a week or two, and then maybe you'll see a Team Slayer list built out of nothing but awesome community created maps. Maybe.

 

[Sai-kun]

All 10 of my codes are gone

 

[krakov]

Please Bungie use blind voting in every playlist, that is all (not really)

a Team Slayer list built out of nothing but awesome community created maps. Maybe.

Yes please.

This sounds succulent. Will try. Really happy to finally play Versus, though.

Yeah I wanted to just give the codes away here, but HBO has been my go-to community site for so long... I have to give back to it, you know?

Good luck though!

Hopefully the quick deadline will give you guys here a better chance... And beyond my post here, I won't pimp the contest on any other sites.

I've given it time. Armor Lock is the WORST thing to have come to Halo. The worst. Name me one thing that Bungie has ever introduced that is worse than Armor Lock, seriously, try to. You can't.

Other complaints, how do we play something other than Elite Slayer in Team Slayer. If I vote against it EVERY SINGLE ROUND why do you keep proposing it to me AT LEAST TWICE out of three options every time? And give me a lobby that votes unanimously for it every time? Finally, my last complaint, I'm getting 20+ kills way too often. My idea of a fun and fair game is not one good guy and three total noobs against one other good guy and three other noobs. How about making the noobs play the noobs and the good guys play the good guys?

Apart from that, how do we play on the new maps in MM? I haven't even seen them =(

Playlist wasn't up yet, nevermind. How do you play 4v4 on Anchor 9 in MM now?

 

[aesop]

Easy. SMG starts on Coagulation.

 

[Plywood]

Wow just was on Tempest in Forge, map is so beautiful. Going to the back and pulling out the rock to find that cave that leads both ways was awesome!

Checking out Breakpoint now~

 

[Domino Theory]

Alright, who's first?

For international users: I have no clue if the codes work internationally or are US only so if you get a code from me and it doesn't end up working, let me know so I can give it to someone else or you can give it to someone else.

[Shake Appeal]

Sharpshooter and a Perfection on Tempest.

+30 on Breakpoint.

I love when TrueSkill isn't throttling me.

 

[BlueScrote]

All the impressions so far seem overwhelmingly positive, I can't wait to get home and start the download.

I'd love to get together with some of HaloGAF to play on the new maps tonight. (I always miss Saturday customs)

8 hit melee kills (Halo 2 v 1.0)

as more people get the maps you should see it come up in standard 4 vs. 4 playlists.

I should have mentioned I'm talking about classic 4v4 competitive Slayer/Objective. Armor Lock isn't so bad in Campaign/Firefight/BTB/Invasion.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

Oh Gosh.

Shamelessy begs for a code.



Firefight versus is awesome!

They finally added it?!?!?!?! ZOMG!

Right here, right now. No contests, no waiting.

I will give a couple to HBO users via the forums later on.

Edit: Tashi, check PMs.

 

[Raide]

I am man enough to say I will happily beg for codes but I am sure to buy the DLC anyway. Hopefully some of those GAFers that cannot afford it now will get codes.

Look forward to Forging the hell out of the new maps. :lol

May I have a code please?

 

[Willeth]

Has anyone had an Invasion game on Breakpoint recently that could throw the Invasion:Breakpoint custom gametype on their fileshare (if possible)? Would love to give it a go but there's always at least one dude in Invasion who doesn't have the maps, and so we've played the same two over and over. The standard Invasion gametype (I imagine) plays very differently, and if we had the custom one at least we could set up a custom game.

You, sir, are a gentleman. Thank you so much.

Apparantly a Grab Bag playlist for Firefight is up, but it's not on the Playlists page on b.net. Would love to see what's in it.

A post on Comm Chatter showing listing all the updates would be great. Can't wait to try some vs. tonight.

You can't pick just Vs. Firefight? That's completely lame. It should be it's own competitive mode.
