This week we venture into the heart of New Mombasa to take a closer look at Terminal, one of the new multiplayer maps coming soon to an Xbox near you. Find out what happens when you play too close to the tracks...

DJ is can obviously been seen to be as a spammer !! heh heh anyway it said in the new map report that when he does the Dukes Of Hazard jump as he calls it that sometimes u have to be careful or you may end up being impaled on the front of the train :)

Wow I have gotta hand it to you guys. You outdid yourselves. There are some maps that people won't like ant some that people will love. I think many will like this one. Also you guys listened we wanted the maps to be more human like....like the trailer. You listened and I hope you keep the suprises comming.

This is by FAR the BEST MAP Bungie has ever created.

Nothing like getting slayed while standing in front of a coke machine waiting for your train to arrive.

I can't wait!

I have a good question.

If you get owned by the train, does it count as a suicide? If so, that kind of sucks, you'd have a long respawn and lose a point.

And, if someone damages you, then you get run over, do they get the kill or what?

I think it should say "you were killed by train" and not count as a suicide.


No, you just get killed. It doesn't say anything. Doesn't count as a suicide, either. You just get owned. And I don't think you get any credit for shooting somebody and then they get splattered by the train.

And believe me, if you don't time it properly, that train will OWN you. It's even more fun in a warthog :)

um...
yeah... this map looks cool; it looks a little too much like zanzabar to me
i mean, i think that its gonna be so hard to get into the defenses base
the defense is prob. gonna grab the sniper and be like sniping out offenses rocket guy
then the defense will have every weapon and the offense will just have overshield and msg
its basically who gets sniper first because obviously the wraith is defensive and then they rush to sniper and if the defense gets it its just over.
but overall, good job bungie, and yeah, please take the banshee of acension, and please make the map prices cheap cuz its like, 6 dollars for the others was kinda too much
lol... i still don't have the money to buy turf and sanctuary

Personally, Im gonna try and jump the sucker. Either in a warthog or something else. Like, set a warthog right on the tracks, stand on it, and wait for the thing to come.....then, JUMP! If its going fast enough I bet you could jump it.

Another goal of mine is to try and ride said train....overshields and health, then get a warthog up to speed and try and get on top...it'd be sweet for about 0.3 seconds until the train leaves the map.

Finally, A diabolical plan to Block the train and crash it off the rails.... For instance, you know those big crates that you can move about an inch with a melee? Well, I for one will move about 3 of them onto the tracks so they get wedged between the train and its tunnel, and since they cant be crushed, if you get it right, THEORETICALLY, you could crash the train.

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

Posted by: Godthedj
wasnt there something about the new maps all having posh switches and stuff, and interactive enviroments, where are these switches? am i missig something here?


Hmm...well, terminal has the train, relic has the weird switchy things, backwash has 2401, and elongation has the conveyer. Besides, there may be other things we havent seen yet.
