F.B.O.Y.C.

Awesome! Lockout was easily one of my favorite maps from Halo 2... that and Zanzibar! Can't wait to play the new maps! Thanks Bungie!

The Legendary Map Pack is f**king awesome! The Heroic fell way short... Foundry is only good for Forging, Standoff was just too small to be a BG remake, and Rat's Nest was just.... Too symmetrical, and rather pointless. You've got two routes to capture the flag, through the base or around it. *sarcastic "woohoo"*

Ghost town might fulfill my need for a city-like map, still looking for a Turf remake though... *a nudge is as good as a wink to a blind bat* BLackout is... Well, Lockout! It looks perfect for a Machinima, and a Hornet... In Forge, of course! Avalanche is the BTB map that we've all been waiting for. Looks like a nice mix of Objective and SLayer, I'm especially excited about the Asymmetrical vehicles, and the new snow covered Hornet and Scorpion....

*dreamy sigh*

Now I just have to wait until April 15t h... f@#%!!!

those who live, will die

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaay.

*ahem* And now for the mature response:

Lockout has always been a halo fan favourite, and guardian was a bit of a let down for some of the people. Blackout seems quite a lot like lockout structurewise, however the change in atmosphere and the same sense of envrionmental objects as Elongation had in halo 2 seems quite good; which is what I think you've done a good job in, it'll be expecting the same kind of gameplay as lockout, but have a completely different feel to it.

Overall you've done the right decision here in bringing a remake of thise map bungie, be expecting my money on april 15th ;) now you just need ranked and social swat, and you'll be 20 steps closer to world domination.

Yay, a cool sig!

First I thought, oh, is that a Halo map? A rig??? Then I took a further look at the last Legendary map. Wow, it's LOCKOUT!!!! My favourite map from h2. Though, I love Coagulation too. It should be made to h3. Valhalla isnt that good. Its too bumpy, Coagulation, Blood Gulch, is more flatter. Anyway, Blackout pwns!

YAY!!! Thanks so much Bungie!! Also, Bungie, I was thinking about the possibilities for the signifigance of z/41.

Perhaps the "z" refers to the Zeta Doradus system, where Onyx lies. It could have been built in memory of all the fallen troops and Spartans there. The "41" could refer to the number of years since Master Cheif's birth in 2511, so It could have been also built in his name.

If you end up using this explanation.................................................. ........can I haz recon?

This is a pretty awesome lockout remake. I can't wait to play on it, Lockout was my favorite map in halo 2, and im very glad it made its way into halo 3.

Hey, some of us thought the Heroic Map Pack was good too--Standoff is officially my favorite map now; it's the perfect 4-6 man team map, with really well balanced points of control and weaponry. I like Rat's Nest, though not so much for CTF--it's great for VIP and Team Slayer, and Assault too actually. Foundry I'm not so fond of, but I like the forge variants that people make more.

After all that's said, the Legendary map pack could be more awesome just because of Sidewinder :)

I Hate Randoms , I Hate Team Splits.

im the first one to jump down bungies throat with some of the stuff they do, but bungie u got this one right, u maintained the basic map structure and added to it, without messing it up. good work.
