I'm impressed by the aesthetics, I was worried that it would be difficult to carry the map over into a different theme.

This is SO MUCH appreciated. Hopefully these new maps will bring back some fond memories I had in Halo 2.
I've been waiting for some old-school (relatively) maps to make their way back into Halo. Halo 3 has a different philosophy when it comes to multiplayer maps it seems like, one that I'm still not quite sure what to think of yet. But at the very least, I can have some more good times in Blackout in Halo 3!

Awesome. Finally we have lockout. Only in the form of Blackout.
Edit: Also it's the first nightime map!

My H3 File Share for all your guilty pleasures...
My favorite professional Halo team ever: Final Boss

Halo 2 being my favorite Halo game to date
Halo fan since 2003

Oh my....

Lockout remake confirmed with this. That means Im buying the legendary map pack. You guys did it. Ghost town (a fusion between Sanctuary, Turf, Midship and Lockout), Avalanche (remake of the most popular map of halo:ce also known as Sidewinder) and now Blackout (remake of the most popular map of halo2 also known as Lockout).

This makes the Legendary map pack a must buy folks! Im telling you, these 3 maps are going to pown. I dont care if the weapon placement is going to be messed up or something. This is what we wanted. Halo3 is going to have a turn with these 3 maps. And these maps will be great. Nice comeback Bungie! Also when these maps are going to be free and required for playing halo3 online... halo3 will explode. The maps that we got now are good but the future will be far more better (Less Isolation thank God - yes, thats the only map I dont like in slayer games though).

So blackout huh? I have to say, its more like a factory but the view of the place is like Northpole/Antarctica shattered ice everywhere and stuff. I dont like the factory theme though, but u guys arent repetetive with this map pack cause there is like no ice at all in the battlefield. Anyway, it looks great, polished and fresh.

See u guys April 15th and again.... thnx Bungie. No complainments here at all! (like those other 'fans' <.< sigh).

Never Lucky, Just incredibly good.

Oh wow... so much for the argument about whether or not Lockout should be re-released for Halo 3. I'm actually pretty pleased and can't wait to try out the weapons and what this map holds for us.

War...
The root of all anger;
The thirst for power fueled by that overwhelming sense of incurable greed.

Awesome Bungie, you never cease to impress.

  • 03.25.2008 11:06 AM PDT

Thank you, Bungie! Blackout looks sweet! And thanks for listing to the community (like always).

thank you Bungie, now if only we could have a remake like this of Coagulation/Blood Gulch, i mean valhalla is okay but its still no blood gulch that map was awesome

  • 03.25.2008 11:07 AM PDT

No matter how many times I forget about this place, I always get dragged back.

I'm more than okay with that.

Sad Face to no Chiron TL-34 :(

...but Happy Face to Lockout :D


You could try Forging a Chiron remake, but it wouldn't be as good as an actual map remake. So, sad face as well :(

But Blackout looks sweet, I'm definitely getting this pack as soon as it comes out.

This looks like a very promising map.

I hate to say I told you so. When I get home I'm going to go through my bookmarks and personally message every naysayer and rub it right in their face.

Thank you, Bungie. A minority will be vocal about their dislike for Lockout, but you'll done an excellent thing with this and I would like to thank you on behalf of the majority of the Bungie and MLG community.

Awesome Bungie. I would have preferred Midship or Beaver Creek givent hat we have Guardian, but this is still great for the community.

They act all big and tough when their on camera with their friends and their guns. But when you break into their house in the middle of the night and stick a gun barrel in their face. They cry like babies and and piss their pants.

*moan* i really didnt want it to be a remake of lockout... but oh well....

This is so kickass. If it wasn't going to be midship they might as well put the best map in from halo 2. I am so excited.
