*This is taking place on Reach, not Halo 2/Vista/PC,etc*

Okay so I plan on having this event called "Halo 2 Flashback Day" where it's non-stop Halo 2 gametypes and maps all day from morning to midnight. The initial plan is that for the first half of the day we will run 4v4 gametypes only and then the other half of the day will be 8v8 gametypes, that way we don't have to kick anybody out in the middle if we want to play 4v4.

I went through searching for Halo 2 maps and customs and made sure I got the most accurate. I even went back through the maps and adjusted a few SMALL things to make it near perfection.

The current maps I have along with their gametypes (so far):
Lockout (4v4 Slayer, 4v4 Ball, FFA Rifles)
Ascension (4v4 Slayer, Tower of Power, One-Flag)
Ivory Tower (4v4 Slayer, FFA Rifles)
Coagulation (Tremors, Troy, 8v8 Slayer, 8v8 Flag)
Foundation (Classic Zombies, 4v4v4v4 Flag)
Midship (4v4 Flag, 4v4 Ball, FFA Rifles)


So this is what I have so far, all ready to go. i want to eventually have all Halo 2 maps and most gametypes, so please send me download links for the very best remakes and gametypes and of course I will go over them to make sure they are near perfection for the best experience.

Unfortunatley, not everyone has played Halo 2 and I would like to make this a Halo 2 veterans only event mainly because for old school gametypes like Tower of Power people will not understand how to play the game. I also don't have a mic so I cannot communicate and explain. If you haven't played Halo 2 but want to attend please go through this list and read the rules of the listed gametypes I've written here.

So please leave some feedback, suggest some popular gametypes along with the maps, so everyone can have a great H2 experience and we can all nostalgia in our pants. I'm looking forward to it!

Also, I guess I'll be taking gamertags for the event right now. So if you'll like to attend please post gamertag along with your post. Once all 16 spots are full I'm afraid that's it. So first come, first serve!

The event will be THIS Friday, so hurry and post GT and feedback. Thanks!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Halo 2 Vista?

Oh I see now, I thought you were trying to bring back Halo 2 from the dead. But nope, it's in Reach.

This is a community gathering.

But anyways, enough derailing. I need feedback with the maps and gametypes.

I don't have Vista so we have to work with what I got.

Why are you people making this so difficult? Just post feedback on maps and gametypes you want to see, sweet jesus.

I did not play too much Halo 2, so I would probably be the guy who has no idea what he is doing. Best of luck though.

Was wondering if you could find a remake of Beaver/Battle Creek considering it was in Halo 2 and have a 4v4 on that of CTF or Slayer?

Also, I am in.

GT: The Little Moa

EDIT: Found a link: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=322704 3

Going to check it out now, see what it looks like.

EDIT 2: Downloaded it, only problem is a bit of FPS drop when aiming from the top of one base to another.

Otherwise, looks sweet.

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Edit: Nah, I just won't play it. I'll just pop in Halo 2 and that's it.

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

OP, you should check out this thread for your selectio of Halo 2 Forge World maps...you should check em' out and pick the best remakes.

Wait, I forgot I have to work that day.

You should definitely do this later in the year as well (November 9th maybe?). By that time, the Title Update will be released hopefully giving us more custom game options to recreate Halo 2 gameplay a bit more accurately, and I may also have finished my accurate (very to-scale) remake of Terminal.. which I started in September.

Lol true but what can you do you know...

One can only hope for a 101% exact H2 remake keeping everything exactly the same and NOTHING changed, Not even the music or gun sounds

Good idea since I'll still need a lot of time to gather every single map together and the most possible gametypes. Still, I can use this thread to obtain those things.
