Like remember when they released Defiant, they kinda screwed the pooch with an exploit that if you play a match in MM, then open it in custom, it unlocked the achievement.

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

I doubt they fixed it, just go try it really fast if you want to know for sure.

All new Achievements must be obtained in Multiplayer MatchMaking.

My friend tried to do it and he couldn't get it to work either. So I went in and tried it. Didn't work. But then, I've never done it before so perhaps I did it wrong. I was just curious.

You can probably still get the Defiant but i'm sure 343i made it so the new achievements can't be done in customs though.

I don't think that was a glitch, they had it stated that it had to be a Match Made game, not a game in match making. That is why they worked in customs for the defiant map pack, you just had to use a game type that you downloaded from your temporary files in order for it to work.

With these newest ones it would seem that is not the case any more, but then why put Match Made in the description when they could have just put match making. Either its a typo, or they didn't fully test it out and it is bugged.

With some luck maybe BSangel or someone from waypoint will shed some light on this.

Interesting. Might try it later just to see, but can't seem to put Skyrim down. :o

Why do you care how other people get achievements?

Today is a good day to be a Spartan

Straight answer for you......

You MUST play MP/MM on the NEW Map pack, Anniversary Playlist.....Custom Games will NOT unlock the Achievement.

There's nothing to shed. You people think too damn hard into these things. It's simple: Whatever map pack it says to do it in, you have to do it on THAT map pack in Multiplayer Matchmaking. I forgot some of the new Achievements are for Defiant, and when I did them on Anniversary, they didn't unlock.

It was the Achievements for:

-Completing a 1 Flag CTF game with the enemy team never touching your flag.

-Being the last man standing in an Infection match.

^^I did both on High Noon/Hang 'em High

Not talking about having to play the map that it specifies but rather their terminology that was used with match made rather than match making. As I said, with the defiant maps they said match made on them and was able to be done in customs, but these newest ones also say match made and can not be done in customs. So why not just put match making so you don't confuse most people?
