I don't feel any better when I reach a rank. I feel great when my enemies burn around me and I scream to the night air "Why the hell am I still alive?" as grenades explode around me and I continue to throttle people.

Er... Bungie maybe you havn't noticed but alot of people I myself want Blood Gulch back more then most of the maps your bring back... So can you please bring that back in the next map pack

Also Isn't Guardian lockout? I always thought it was.

Hot damn Blackout looks SEKZAY! I love the setting. Is this in the middle of the Arctic or something?

EDIT

Know that although in the eternal scheme of things you are small, you are also unique
and irreplaceable, as are all your fellow humans everywhere in the world.

Eh. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. Lockout is a great map, but since it already inspired Guardian and there are so many similarities, I was hoping the third map would be a revamp of something ELSE.

Oh well, it still looks nice.

I agree, and to be honest it just looks ugly. Bungie has run out of ideas, and maybe it's better this way because the heroic maps were pretty lame. The only map I'm excited about is Avalanche, just looks awesome. I hope this means there will be a Coagulation or Waterworks strict remake.

Sick from the disease eating away at me inside.
Sick of people who dont apreciate thier blessings.
Sick of those who scoff at the suffering of others..im sick of it all!

im really hoping blood gulch and a few other good maps from the previous games come out in the next "mythic" map pack >.>
sound good anyone :D
who agrees they should do that XD

guardian is a far cry from lockout...guardian wasn't even close to as fluid as lockout was

  • 03.25.2008 12:00 PM PDT

Hell yeah! i cant wait!!!

Frankly I'm not gonna bother with this map pack Bungie are running out of ideas their bring out maps that we already technicly have the only new map it seems so far is 'Cotton Ball' and we have Guardian already so why should we pay for this?!

What kind of Forge objects are going to be on the default map besides weapons and equiptment? Barrels and radios and fusion coils and stuff? THAT IS VERY DELICATE! BE CAREFUL!

the map looks great but i think guardian plays well enough like lockout to dismiss another lockout-inspired map. the aesthetics are amazing, i just wish they used them for a remake of something like ascension. that would've kept with the whole theme of having one map from each game while still giving us something fresh. maybe the mythic map can have prisoner, headlong/terminal, and something brand new (preferrably hugeee).

but it does look amazing! more nighttime and weather effect maps bungie!

Thank god! No offense Bungie but Guardian was a horrible excuse for a Lockout replacement.

I'm glad you guys tried to keep it as close as Lockout as possible, hopefully blowing up the barrels on S3 still knocks the Sniper off.

Only complaint is the look of the map, we have so many UNSC maps it would've been nice to still have the snowy forerunner design but whatever.

Hopefully the next remake you guys plan is Midship, as you should know we don't have any arena styled maps in Halo 3. None! And, hopefully you guys can keep the hardcore covenant look on it. :)

-blam!- YEAH Bungie!!! -blam!- YEAH!!! *breathes huge sigh of relief

  • 03.25.2008 12:05 PM PDT

On a crusade to bring back Halo 2 maps...

Thank you Bungie.
At long last my dream has come true.
I just hope that you can still climb up BR tower with the doorframe + antenna...
I know this is going to be everyone's favourite map :D.

If this map pack sells better than the first consider making more remakes (Ivory Tower, Headlong, Midsship, Warlock etc...).
