Arbitor they outnumber us three to one!
Then it is an even fight.

Arbitor > Arbiter.
Arbitor = Rank above Arbiter.

A big thanks to kids that did this to 343 after they heard they get an infection game mode in halo 4 with no thought of normal playlists.

It's not the map, it's Bungie's laughable understanding of good item placement.

MLG countdown is one of the best default maps on Reach, if not the best.

Immortality: A toy which people cry for, And on their knees apply for, Dispute, contend and lie for, And if allowed Would be right proud Eternally to die for.

It's only decent on Team doubles...

All CQB weapons should be scrapped on that map, add a Sniper and a GL or something.


why would they scrap the CQB weapons from a CQB map only to put in the sniper rifle, which is clearly a looong range weapon. the GL is ok though i´d like to see that one put in.


Because CQB weapons on a CQB map leads to horrible gameplay.

The best strategy is to literally camp around corners because you have a weapon that is far too useful on a map. When you limit most encounters to a shotgun range and then have one shotgun user on the map he becomes a demigod, and there are very few counters to him.

This is something Bungie fails to understand. or maybe they do in which case I would hate them even more for intentionally making countdown so horrible.

Typical retarded noob who can't comprehend simple gameplay theories. It is sad that you have such a lack of understanding of something you put a decent amount of time into.

It's fun on MLG settings.


This. MLG countdown should replace default. Shotty/sword ruin the map.

This why there are large maps, good for sniping as it was intended, and close quarters maps.
However, some of the CQB weapons could be taken away to fix the camping problem.

Shotgun and Concussion Rifle should be scrapped on that map, add a Focus Rifle and a GL in replacement.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

I find countdown fun as long as people don't camp top health with power weapons.
