Legend that is Benin!!!

I have 3 questions!

1. Are these achievements Anniversary map specific or can they played on any map??

2. If so since this annoying August update how would I go about finding Infection and Headhunter types for Anniversary Modes?

3. Would anyone like to help me get them or boost them at all, by getting other helpers? :D

Your time and effort to read this is most appreciated :D

1. All Anniversary Achievements have to be earned on an Anniversary map.

2. By boosting for it. That's a good part of why most of the community is furious at 343 for this- they've made it impossible to get the achievements legitimately.

Wrong. I've gotten every single Reach achievement legitimately. The anniversary achievements were difficult to find games that matched the criteria, but it can be done.

Wrong.
It's hyperbole, dude. Calm down.
:/

I've gotten every single Reach achievement legitimately. The anniversary achievements were difficult to find games that matched the criteria, but it can be done.... You got all the achievements back in December and November. We're talking about now. If you have kept up with Halo: Reach at all, you'd know 343 removed all but two Anniversary playlists, there are no defiant ones, maps are not required in matchmaking, and it is near impossible to get the gametypes to come up let alone actually get the achievements.

We have actual statistics for it, mate.


27 games of Big Team Battle.
Of those 27 games, there were 96 game options.
Of those 96 game options, there was 4 Noble Map Pack options.
Of those 4, 2 got chosen and both were BTB heavies (Breakout and Typhoon)

Of those 96 options, there were 0 defiant map pack options.
In other words, Highlands.

Of those 96 options, there were 3 Anniversary Map Pack options.
Of those 3, 1 got picked.
In that game ( 2 flag CTF Ridgeline) a total of 11 people got booted/left throughout the course of the game.

So...out of 27 games, DLC content was played 3 times.
2 of the 3 were heavies.

Pfft. 'Wrong' he says. The nerve of kids these days.
*sigh*

lol. You can't expect someone to detect such subtle exaggeration in simple text.

I play Reach regularly and keep up with the news and updates relating to it. I wasn't trying to attack you or calling you out. I apologize if you thought I was. And really we were just trying to say the same thing. It may be extremely difficult to get all of the achievements now, but it is still possible (no matter how hard) without boosting.

See? Misunderstandings are even more likely on the internet.

How many extra controllers do you have? If you have 2 or 3, message me, i'll start a party for these.

Now that the ANV FFA playlist is gone, it just got a lot harder...but it's possible. Just search RP. It's map specific. I got both of mine on Damnation.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

This, OP, is the truth.
And I had 100% in Reach until those achievements came with the TU D:<
