WTF man no sniper on stand off i spent an hour running around that map cause i would never had thought that you would give us that perfect perch ( atop the open silo) but no rifle. any one who stands there is going to cry such a great sniping local but no rifle again i say WTF man



That's precisely the point of removing it.

Sweet Maps! Any one know of any other way to get to the pipes on rat trap besides using the gravlift?


yeah, i think. i havent played the maps yet.

in the campaign, you can jump on a crate, jump on a ledge on one of the big doorways/arches, and then jump onto the vents. (the big ones on the main track, from the look of a screenshot,.

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

nice tips

"And when I vest my flashing sword And my hand takes hold in judgment I will take vengeance upon mine enemies And I will repay those who hase me O Lord, raise me to Thy right hand And count me among Thy saints ."

Standoff is the best map you have ever made! And the sniper was left out because it would be way too one sided with it on such an open ended map. All the other power weapons have draw backs on this map. Both the turret's and the Warthog leave you very vulnerable to the Spartan Laser. And the Spartan Laser is probably going to be hunted down by both teams and is a slow shooter. A sniper would have no real weakness and a whole lot of power. BR's are perfect for this level.

Get it right.

"You can use the windows as sniping perches and they’re relatively safe."
^ There`s no spiner in stand off,so that eliminates that tip

And good that there is no sniper because map is so open.

Am I the only one who doesn't really like Standoff?

The other maps are delicious though. I wasted about three hours today playing different versions of foundry. Quite fun.

when are they gonna put these maps on team slayer so I can just play slayer with them?

  • 12.13.2007 5:50 PM PDT

Yeah these new maps have not come up on team slayer and this is very irritating. The first night I matched up in the maps and now I can't seem to match into the new maps.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Cool

As far as I know, that is the only way you can currently purchase the new maps. However if you are under the age of 18 and your Windows Live ID states that you are such age then you will not be allowed to download them.

from what i played from the new maps, i thought they were pretty good.
but if i had to make suggestion to Bungie,
but wait, rewind. Does any one remember in Halo: Combat Evolved that one level: Truth and Reconciliation?
That was the only level that made me think, hey i really think if Bungie will come out with those maps coming out in spring,
they should add a "night" level.
This would (i think) add a nice touch to multiplayer.

any thoughts?

Rats Nest is amazing. A great tip for that map:

instead of jumping in a warthog or running for rockets, go for the hammer. Sit near the main back entrance (facing the Parked Pelican) and wait patiently for those angry warthogs. Theres nothing better than coming out of the back door and slamming a warthog filled with 3 people flying off the edge to their death. I used this method at the start of a match, sent 2 warthogs flying off the cliff, 5 kills. something different, and totally unexpected. Im sure bungie planned this, and thats just friggin genius.

Suggested Gametype:

Save One Bullet. One of the built-in Infection modes. You have a limited ammo supply and cannot pick up weapons. Works great with at least eight players and better with 16.



thats great, though most people cant get a group of 16 together for an infection map. dont forget to take that as sarcasm for all you serious halo 3 geeks out there that are going to *try* and bash me immediately.
