Subject: Longsword hidden outside of Installation 04


Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

I have a habit of getting outside of maps, not the best with Firefight maps but I managed to get out today, I like to take scenery shots from outside the maps, but finding a Longsword is not something I ever intended to do.
This screenshot shows exactly where it is, as you can probably see it is very close to the actual map, but not close enough to be seen by a player, if you cannot see it look in the bottom left corner.
A closer look at it, this doesn't seem to be much of a help, but it does show that it is detailed.
Now I've never seen a thread about this before, but if it has already been found, then a link to the original thread would be nice.
On a side note, does anyone know a way to get a teleporter further outside of Solitary, to be able to actually explore, I've never gotten further than the wall outside the building.

I've never seen it on other Firefight maps but I haven't gotten out of them, I also have not seen any on Boneyard, so why they are on Installation 04 is a mystery, I've never completed a wave(or is it round) as to see weapons drop, I've never seen weapons drop either.

I think he is doing it just to piss other people off, seeing as he has nothing else to do.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Couldn't it just be the longsword that drops off weapons at the beginning of rounds?

And as I have already said, I haven't played on Installation 04 long enough to see weapons drop, but I've never seen one on the other maps.

Don't need pics. The weapon drops don't fall from orbit, there is a Longsword that flies overheard. It's on every FF map with the drops.

I've only ever seen the 3 on Boneyard that're used for Invasion, but yeah, the others have it right: It's for the Weapon Drops at the beginning of the rounds.

Guess I need to play more Firefight on that map and see for myself, maybe follow the Longsword when it does drop them.

Could you perhaps mention where they are?

S.A.A.

SAAKILLER is pronounced: S.A.A.KILLER

Play firefight classic or change the settings so that there will be weapon drops. Most of the other firefight gametypes don't have weapon drops.
