Based on campaigns.

Flame me if you like, but I am addicted to this gametype. I got by first rampage and killtrocity last night in a scorpion, its so awesome. The maps are fun and I love having the vehicle battles, plus there are loads of opportunities for people unlucky enough to get vehicles to counter. My favourite map is Cragmire.

From now on this is the only game type I am playing!

Two makes there more than speakers.

I'd enjoy it more, if vehicles weren't made of paper.

100% Australian.

My Connection
My House
My Pet

It's a fun game if you're searching by yourself or just 'playing for fun' (lol), but any attempt to play as a full party on Cragmire and control all 9001 power weapons/vehicles is just frustrating.

I do like the new maps they put in, although i feel like no effort was put in to actually utilize the other side of boneyard.

I think the fun of Cragmire is that there are so many power weapons and vehicles that map control is literally impossible, and one team can't get a good setup and dominate the rest of the game. It's sort of silly and casual and feels more like a custom game but it's an interesting change.

I agree, it feels like a fun casual game, no pressure and no competition

Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.

Sounds fun, maybe I'll have to dust off Reach and give it a try. :-)

Who's got AIDS?

No, Community BTB was the best thing to happen to Reach. R.I.P.

I'd enjoy it more if the maps didn't suck. Only two are worth playing.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

See, that's why you like this gametype: it isn't hard to do well in it. Even YOU can get sprees and multikills in Heavies, while you can't in any other playlist.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

I like it better than regular BTB. I hate respawning and finding myself in an empty half of Hemorrhage with no weapon spawns around, no team mates around, and nothing but a mongoose to get me out of there. So boring.

I'm also a fan of the way heavies have displaced objectives to an extent. I'm so sick of getting spawn trapped every time SomeIdiot2903 and his guests rage-quit. Between liberal application of the laser and the lack of garbage spawns, my k/d in BTB has gone from somewhere in the area of 0.77 to 1.21.

It's nice being able to sit alone in my living room playing a video game and not have to find a crowd of lackeys to make it enjoyable.
