What room is that on that Blackout first person view picture? I seem to having a hard time thinking what I'm looking at.

That is the bottom room of the sniper tower area. They widened the length of the room a little bit more in the blackout version of it. So that is why it looks different other than it being a human map now.

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame.

Arguing on the internet is like participating in the special olympics. You might win, but you're still retarded.

HEY BUNGIE, I WOULD LIKE AN BETA TEST PLOX KTHNX

All three maps look great! I don't care what anyone says, but both map packs have been good, Rat's Nest is freakin amazing! And you know the next map pack will be good too.

Here's my prediction; remember, I called it here!
The next map pack will be called Mythic, and will be the last map pack for a long while.
After the Mythic Map Pack, Bungie will be slightly quieter for a short while, then they will start dropping the tiniest little hints about their next big project (which is gonna be nothing like Halo.)

However, weather it's after the release of their next big project or before it, I'm guessing both, Bungie will release a couple "Halo Classics" map packs, in which they will bring back a few more of the most demanded maps.

Here's my guesses on the maps:
Blood Gulch (see below)
Hang Em High (Do the same thing as Lockout/Blackout, maybe make it into a jungle or something!? WOOO!!)
Wizard/Warlock (revamped and better than ever, yeah?)

For the Blood Gulch thing, it's kinda like the Guardian arguement: a lot of people understood right away that Guardian was inspired by Lockout. Valhalla was inspired by Blood Gulch. But it's just not the SAME. The huge hill in the middle of Valhalla takes away from the vehicle and snipers experience, a lot. Not to say that Valhalla is a bad map: it does it's thing, and it's fun.
And it'd be fun to see the same thing done with Lockout/Blackout done to Blood Gulch: a complete change of the artwork used. That would be so friggen cool.

Anywhom...I've typed long enough. GO BUNGIE GO!!! GREAT UPDATE!!!

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

Bumper Jumper, 3 sensitivity, no vibration (H:CE & H2 are Boxer)
Halo 2 being my favorite Halo game to date
Halo fan since 2003

This is just awesome. Really. I had a hard time on geussing some lockout areas but I figured it out. First is beneath the sniper, plasma recon player is the needler place and when you go down another needler is and the last pic is the bottom area of the sniper place. I think. Blackout is huge man... I dont know if thats a good thing though. Those Avalanche and Ghost Town pictures are looking stunning and full of action, but I would like to see pics of the mid-area ''tunnel'' of Avalanche and some more Ghost Town pics beacause its new. I also think Im more excited about Ghost Town than the other 2 maps cause its new and it looks better every time something new is revealed about this map.

But Bungie (Yes always a but), you guys know me IF you were reading my posts on the latest bungie updates/announces/whatever is on the front page. Im kinda dissapointed because I didnt pay 800 ms points for the Heroic map pack because Im addicted to the dlc playlist. I got it 2 weeks now and I play it now for 2 weeks lol. Anyway, all three maps are just great. I really like Standoff, Rats Nest is the underdog (wich I prefer more) and Foundry was stupid in the beginning but its way more enjoyable now (I geuss small maps are more popular in the community). Also Forge gets a twist with some objects in the heroic pack, BUT the way Forge works is still absolutely ridiculous. Its fine, but not great! We need an update for making this better. Delete or undone, 90 degrees rotate, glue to hold object, higher budget, better objects like THIN walls and windows with real glass etc. I will pay for it OMG I like using forge so much now beacuse of foundry. Fix this.

Second. The K/D spread on bungie.net. I woke up yesterday (it was 5.30 am in Holland and bungie.net says my first match was this morning 20.51 pm) so I started playing. My k/d spread on social was 1.30. After like 40 matches of grifball I had (calculated myself) +173 in total with all negatives and positive spreads yesterday played. And now its 1.29. How ridiculous is that??? 3 months ago I was 1.42. My highest to date on social and since then it went lower and lower. I know I had games like -10 but I also know everytime I did my last game on a day I knew 100 procent that I made all those negative spreads positive. I wasn't aware that the system was failing and my k/d spread was like 1.36 wich I found good enough (still I was surprised that it went down). Now its just TOO low! Its 1.29. Thats my lowest ever. Please fix this and make it 1.40 again or higer at least. The difference between Kill and Death is 2345. This is so good and never 1.29. Only 656 social games played.

Third. This map pack is going to succeed. Its going to kick ass with the forge filters, new fitting into style objects and of course the maps wich has Ghost Town (elements of known maps and brings something quit new with looks and gameplay), Avalanche (best and popular map on halo:ce) and Blackout (best and popular map on halo2 and for me the best map ever made for the halo trilogy and maybe the best map ever). I hope you guys make the next map pack only remakes. And if you do it, remake Blood Gulch/Coagelation (Valhalla is inspired but NOT the same), Midship (really good SWAT and brings some elite not brute covenant memories back with the style) and High Ground (this was my first map that I played on halo:ce and halo pc (coincidence) and I fell in love with it - I prefer the halo:ce map but thombstone fit really the style of halo2). Do this and save Halo3 4 ever and make everyone happy. Lol.

Keep up the good work!

LATER
