12 hours is a long time. Here are some more pretty pictures, namely of me and some buds (Mr Daravon, Brainboy, Revenge First) nailing the Annual Achievement down, and beating the Internet itself by overcoming massive, massive lag throughout).

As in the days of HBO's FAE games, I'm in a custom game now that folks can join if ya'll want to talk, but not play any serious games. The party's open so hop on and join up if you want to.

Anyone know the url of that page with all the info regarding how each map is weighted within each playlist matchmaking?

8 DLC BIG TEAM games and Avalanche hasn't even come up once... Avalanche came up in 8 out of my last 16 DLC Objective games before it was pulled.

BEST MAP

IN HALO 3

EVER

So... WHEREEEEEEEEEEEE IS IT? FUCK

I haven't seen a single map from the latest map pack show up with the exception of Ghost Town in DLC FFA.

FREE AVALANCHE

I've gotten Avalanche at ton in DLC Big Team, at least half the time. Dunno man.

Two of his friends!? :(

I was one of them.

EDIT: Proof that I am in fact much better than those other three dudes.

Sorry, I had no idea you posted here :P

Also the most of the reason I almost never look at this thread is because it's mostly posts that are totally fucking inane and would get locked and/or banned in any other thread, or they are posts that belong in the online thread. However absolutely no one uses the online thread, so I stay out of both since I don't want to post it here and get this thread locked down, but no one's using the other one either.
 
Well, maybe I will only have to deal with one thread because it looks like this one is going to get closed with all the chat having to do with partying up together. :(
 
Technically most of the chatter is about doing the main campaign...

....

... I got nothing.

I hope Bungie take a good hard look at the veto data for heavy maps. And change accordingly. =)

*Note, this may backfire, we may see more Heavy variants in future, but I doubt it.

Most of the vetoing right now is in hopes for a Legendary map. So I wouldn't go by that data...
 
Does anyone know if you can get the co-op achievements with guests in your party? Because it'd be pretty easy to get my four roommates to do it, but we all don't have Live accounts.

True. It should pan out after a while though. I would like to see the weighting heavies get though, as it seems like alot.

One DLDBTB match we vetoed valhalla heavy and got sandtrap heavy afterwards. Not cool, Bungie. Feels like their is a heavier weighting on heavies compared to their normal counterparts.

Also, here's the Banshee-Boat clip. Weird stuff.

It's like, due to the Banshee exploding during hijacking, the poor guy is so traumatised he can't let go. To the amusement of his teammates and my own. =)

As I was saying bye to the people that were leaving, I was suddenly alone. :lol So I just logged.
 
I don't mean to a downer but Anvil is terrible. My second match was just fantastic. I spawned within the sights of the player that spawned by the sniper. So guess what happened to me within seconds? X_X

The layout is very haphazard. There's no simple way to reach the Overshield unless you're on top on the sniper perch and drop down. The weapon layouts seem like little thought was put into them. There are a couple of SMGs, a Laser, Sword and Sniper all spread out but not much else. The Sword is useless in a Slayer BR game because you can be killed before you even spot a close enough player to slash.

The biggest problem is the lack of useful and interesting sight lines. I prefer the standard Foundry map come back and replace Anvil.
