Halo 2 for Life!

BTB TS on Lockout, Midship, and Elongation were insane. But my favorite matches of BTB were on waterworks Neutral Flag, waterworks multi-flag, Coagulation multi-bomb, Headlong single bomb, Terminal 1 flag, and Headlong 1 flag.

If I had to choose BTB on Headlong 1 flag was crazy fun, first objective was to break the glass and throw the flag down and than it was a struggle to get it out but it was just a team effort and even if you were down 4 guys you could still win if you had a really good team unit that could pull that thing out of their. It was simply an amazing experience.


Here is an example of a Headlong 1 flag game I recorded:

It was alot of fun up until a superbouncer ruined the game.

Also here is an example of a BTB 1 bomb game on Headlong, I recorded when XBL was still up:

4 guys quit on our team and we were still able to plant the bomb once and tie the game. Fun times on XBL.

Yeah, Hitboxing = fail. For example, a certan user from the maw who has never played Halo 2 Xbox online links to this halo 2 bash video (its much less exreme in acutial gameplay) which shows hitboxing, but it also exists in halo 3, which also has unbalanced weps and n00b armor (recon).

Flag Wars on Waterworks and Gulch Wars on Containment were my absolute favorites.

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Team Slayer BRs on Colossus was my favorite. 8v8 Elongation was awesome chaos. And for some odd reason I really enjoyed Team Rockets, especially on Sanctuary.

Team Rifles on Colossus was very good, as well. Anything on Sanctuary was good, really.

My objective favorites were Neutral Bomb BR on Coag, 1 Flag CTF BR on Burial Mounds and Multi Flag CTF on Containment.

I also loved anything on Zanzibar, Headlong and Terminal. Those 3 maps to me were classic Big Team Battle arenas.

Halo 2 for Life!

To me Headlong and Zanzibar were very similar in BTB other than Headlong was way bigger, that is why I like Headlong more. Zanzibar it was less of a battle to get the flag to the destination. Also, in bomb it was to fast to get the bomb in Zanzibar, in Headlong you had to climb stairs, or go through defending buildgings to get to the final building and there the bomb could be thrown down to the bottom level, and it was just alot more fun on Headlong than Zanzibar even though they were very similar.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

Multiflag on Coagulation. Best possible gametype in Halo history, in my opinion. Multiflag on Blood Gulch is just as fun, too.

Multi-flag on Coagulation, Flag Wars on Waterworks, Assault on Terminal, and One-Flag on Headlong.

Halo 2 for Life!

Multi-flag on Coagulation wasn't exciting to me, it was basically go through the teleporter or take the warthog. It was not the best built map. Waterworks or Headlong were the better of the H2 BTB maps for sure.
