Subject: Who has the Anniversary map pack?

"Die?"Kurt laughed."Didn't you know?"he told the Elite. "...Spartans never die."

HAs anyone got the Anniversary map pack, and what's your thoughts on it. Personally I think it's alright. I like seeing the old maps back, but the achievements are so -blam!- frustrating and stupid. What say you?



Also, if anyone has the Anniversary and Defiant map packs, I'll help you get the achievements if you help me :) I only need 3 more, and nobody's playing Reach on my friends list at the moment. So we'll have people to lay with and have loads of banter, and we get achievements out of it too :D

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

I do not care about achievements, and the map pack is alright, not a fan of the new/classic pistol though.

Yeah, the 3 shot pistol is bull-blam!-. It has become the new shotgun. People rush down corridors with it and empty the mag. 3 rounds hit you and you're dead. I don't particularly like it either.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

For starters I ignore achievements. That's the first step toward remembering to only play a game because it's fun, not for lol100%completion.

The maps are good. They play well on Classic settings, but the swords on every Reachified map are stupid. They also look better than every default map in the game. They're really taking advantage of the particle effects.

Hang em High has too many excess convolutions. If you throw a grenade anywhere near a wall be ready for it to bounce back in your face. It reminds me of Epitaph of Halo 3.

I am absolutely LOVING the new maps. It's so nice to not deal with forge crap any more.

I would rather have a DMR then the pistol.

The Anniversary Map Pack is well worth it. The maps are great looking especialy after having to deal with bland forge maps for so long. I've played 40 or so games - there seems to be two basic set-ups (and please feel free to correct me if you or others know different) - there is Anniversary and there is Slayer (taking Team Slayer as an example). Anniversary has no start AA's - but up can pick up a temporary overshield or temp invisiblity in various locations. There may be other AA you can pick up - but I havent run across them yet. Pistol seems to be a three shot-kill although I have yet to confirm. Slayer set-up is basically the same as Reach: you choose AA's at the start of the match, but Armour Lock seems to end quicker, and pistol seems to be a four-shot kill. (Again I cant confirm.) Those are my 2 cents. Regards.
