awesome, yet some people will be sad that hang em highs chances of coming to Halo 3 have decreased now, due to there being a remake for Halo 2.

Just 4 dollars for these 2 Maps??? NOT BAD...NOT BAD AT ALL!!! (If I understood correctly)

So April 17th...hmmm...that seems relatively close...but I wonder when they plan to release the BETA, cuz they said Spring, and I have a really bad feeling that they will release it on June 20th (one Day b4 SUMMER STARTS!!!) That would really suck, but hopefully, that won't happen.

And yah, the maps look AMAZING. I can already see myself playing on them and killing others...if that is good, I don't know...

Release date is April 17th for these maps so maybe the beta will be released April 17th too? I thought that was the plan.

Why do people like hang em high so much? I mean its fun, but it was not one of my favorite maps from halo. Derelict is going to feel so weird without the pistol, but I guess the BR will do. I am very disappointed that the teleports and the room upstairs is going to be removed, its really going to change the look and feel of the map. I am not sure if I even want to pay money for these maps, I wish they made remakes of better maps like Prisoner, Chill Out, or Damnation. Although I still have not played these maps so I will wait and see, who knows they might be great, but I am not going to get my hopes up.

Bungie are you planing on releasing these maps from free after an extended period of time like the other maps? Also are there going to be new playlists to implement the new maps into xbox live's quick/optimatch

Yep, just like I said (I said it first!).

Also, I love that the new HEH has meaning now. And no lip! I didn't notice that before.
Also, someone on the first page asked when they'll be on H2Vista. Well, right now, the plan is that they won't. Sorry.

Did you read the whole Update? Because he addressed both of those questions.

For Carnage, Apply Within.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

Gone are the meaningless upper floor tunnels, replaced instead by ramps that allow easy access to the ground floor, and create tight close quarters battles, and occasional grenade traps. The teleports have been replaced by rapid grav lifts, more direct and quicker to use than the ramps.Boooooo. I liked camping up there next to the camo with a sniper.

that which is not dead can eternal lie, but with strange aeons even death may die.

wait, are those two new maps the only new maps from Certain Affinity? or are there going to be more??

and Yes, I do think that Tombstone is awesome.

Best Update Ever. I loved the part where Frankie posted the pictures of the 2 New H2V maps. Oh wait... damn that psilocybin and psilocin containing hallucinogenic mushrooms :-\

I will infest your pillow.

At one point in time they mentioned having the new Halo 2 maps available to those who got the Halo 3 beta a couple of weeks early. Are they still doing this? Obviously they wouldn't be in matchmaking early but it would be nice to be able to play them with some friends around the house.

Uh, did you read the news story? Frankie told you how (get one of those Visa gift cards that act like Visa cards but aren't credit cards).

Very cool but what about people that don't have a creditcard like most people do on the 360

Nice!
Wow man u have had the first post for the last two posts. I seriously doubt you have a life. Youre probably some fat kid who sits at his computer all day waiting for the next update. I also know for a fact that you dont read the posts before you comment on them.


I’m at work so I technically get paid for this. Jealousy FTW

p.s I read really really fast

If there's one thing I have learned in working with you, it's that there is always margin for error.

Cool, I am loving those maps already. Does anyone else see the overshield hidden in the water, is there a shot gun on the other side?- kinda reminds me of battle creek. Yea, the first time I saw Hang em' High, I thought to myself, what the heck is that random piece of geometry doing there, you know the one with the sniper rifle on it, and now it all makes sense. I will definitely be writing my name with the smg into the "tombstones". Anyways, cool update, Hope to see more H3 info next week.

- They took r JEEEEERBS

  • 03.30.2007 3:48 PM PDT
