Re: Halo Reach
I'm glad I noticed this one coming back, otherwise I would have missed all 4 for the day. I guess I'm going to be forced against my will to get all 4 until Thursday again this week.

Re: Halo Reach
May I ask what any of your GTs are? My gamertag is UBERMEISTER32. I hate to say it, but check out my fileshare if you want. I have two maps: Crash Site, which is a crashed UNSC frigate with Invasion and Big Team support. (Obviously you need the gametype to play it) and Lost Purpose, an Infection map. The gametype for it is not required, however.

Re: Halo Reach
Sorry Fixer, but I don't usually hand out my gamtertag to people on GT that I don't know that well.

Re: Halo Reach
If you guys want a good read, go out and get Cryptum if you can find it. It reveals a lot about the Forerunners, their relation to Humanity and the Prophets, and some interesting stuff about the Precursors.

Re: Halo Reach
Hmm... I might take you up on that offer, Fusion. Hey btw (sorry to go a little off topic), did you get my PM about expanding this thread & possibly adding Black Ops too?Fusion wrote:If you guys want a good read, go out and get Cryptum if you can find it.

Re: Halo Reach
We are on something big today, it was revealed on B.net that there is a golden BOB on New Alexandria. This is the best thing i have seen about BOBs on Reach.... http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/globalchallenges.aspx

Re: Halo Reach
After about 12 minutes of searching I found it. It will spawn on an edge of the map and fly to another edge very quickly until it disappears, about 150 altitude. Seeing as this is Legendary you will most likely be hit at some point and also be smoking, so make sure you can see everything through the smoke. The Banshee will never stop, if you see it early on just keep firing at it.

Re: Halo Reach
I just can't get back into Reach. As strong as the multiplayer is Halo 3 has the maps I love. I can't say I'm too attached to any of Reach's maps except maybe the Ivory Tower remake.

Re: Halo Reach
Great... since i dont have XBL yet, i cannot know if i killed it, but do you think you can look at the vid and see if there is an actual elite inside the banshee, and upload a pic to the fileshare?Fusion wrote:After about 12 minutes of searching I found it.

Would be great.

Re: Halo Reach
Has anyone gotten this week's challenge? I tried to do it by myself last night and it was pretty hard. I would suggest getting some friends to help you along the way before you start playing.

Re: Halo Reach
Yeah, I got it last night in co-op after failing the first time by myself. Let the AI kill the grunts and skirmishers, pop out and hit an Elite with two overcharged Plasma Pistol shots and either you or the AI will get the headshot.
It's a bit easier by yourself, just make sure you utilize the forklift to block the sword elite at the end.
Also, in co-op, if you're fast and can maneuver around Elites like I can, have one person draw the sword Elite out of the back room and then assassinate the two concussion rifle Elites, starting with the one working at the console. You'll die a few times but this works better than getting into a long firefight with the two concussion rifle Elites and then realizing you have to punch them to death while they're both shooting at you.

Re: Halo Reach
Hey, it's been a while since anyone has posted something here. I found some really awesome remakes of Halo: CE maps. Boarding Action is by far the best I've seen besides Beaver Creek and Hang 'em High. Just head over to Bungie.net to find the topic that has the links. Here: http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=49975558
Anyways, I just got to Lt. Colonel. Honestly, I have no clue as to how I got there. This week's challenge is easy.

Re: Halo Reach
If only I could see screenshots of the maps before I download them because I like to see how well they did on them since some I don't think I've ever seen before.

Re: Halo Reach

Also, has someone seen Achievement Horse? series was pretty nice until today...

Re: Halo Reach
Yeah, I've been following that series. Pretty funny, the only thing I don't like all the swearing. I wish they would keep it below PG-13.
And where can I see the screenshots for the maps on B.net?
EDIT:
Wow lol, I watched the Achievement Pig for today and it failed.... What happened to Geoff? Where's Geoff? That other guy that they got was such a whiner...

Re: Halo Reach
Yeah, the swearing is bad...
IDK what happened to Geoff... sadly he wasnt on part 9...
To watch pics on B.net, just click on the Read More section of the Comm Chatter, scroll down, and the remade map pics are there, but for some reason i cant find them now....

Re: Halo Reach
Such disrespect for Joel. How unexpected, considering it's the man, the myth, the legend, behind Caboose from RvB. I want to see a Joel v Geoff HORSE. THAT, would be a battle.
