Customs was a ton of fun tonight. I was laughing through half of the games. The Prisoner remake that we played on was freaking awesome. We had an epic MLG 4v4 game on that.
In fact, we pretty much only played remakes tonight for the most part. We need to have a Halo 2 night in the near future.
The Ascension remake was really cool, as it was very true to the original. I think it would have played better without the Banshee and then switching the missle pod for a rocket, though.
We played a 5v5 on Damnation and that brought back some good Halo 1 memories like Prisoner did. It's amazing how awesome the simplest of maps can be.
Vhfive is terrible at Halo CE maps
Mage was fun, but the spawns on CTF are still a little off.
We played a lot of Sanctum tonight and the teams were really even. Each game was intense and down to the wire everytime.
Eat my noob combo, Thermight
. Five, if you don't submit this to Atlas tonight I am going to flip shit. Where do you live, because I'm gonna have to come and kick you in the nads.
I like the new Sandstorm. It's much more polished then the first one. Entrenched worked really well too. The CTF game we played on it was pretty exciting.
The Terminal remake has some potential. The Wraith is overpowered, so a power drainer or two couldn't hurt. There also needs to be more cover for foot soldiers at both bases (but remeber not to block the Wraith's movement too much).
If anyone wants the remakes we played on, I can post the links to them.
He had the behavior down pat: AR only, no matter the distance, radio silence, leaving the party randomly for no reason, etc. Too much body humping though.
You got me...I did it for the lulz...It was fun except Dax actually wasn't in the party tonight. Oh well, I'm just gonna level that account to 50 and sell it.
I underestimated GAF, I slipped up and you got me. Lol, it was fun just running around ARing everyone and then t-bagging them. I must have body humped Voltron like 50 times lol
shit i saw message after you had gone sorry
i guess i was to intently sucking to even see the message pop up.
i switched to invite only because non gaffers were starting to flood the group :/
EDIT: tomorrow after work
and best buy, too human here i come,
i promise but right now its to bed time so i can actually get up for work

:lol :lol :lol
I knew something was funny, I'm sure Dax is a good player, but I was getting owned! I was actually looking for you most of the games because of the t-bagging! Still pretty good effort though!:lol
That last game that I play, MLG settings on the prisoner remake was awesome! I love that there was no radar. On spawn, rockets fell next to camo and so I picked them both up. After I took out one of you guys, you guys went into high alert. I hear someone call out to another, "Watch out, Tashi has rockets and camo somewhere" The other says, "he's right there!!!" BOOM! BOOM! double kill!! Too funny

Well at first, I didn't wanna play my hardest because I thought I would give it away. But then when the BR start games began, I switched to AR every time and tried harder. The AR sucks...hahaha that was fun
I'm assuming you guys didn't play a game on my latest experiment . I'm not promising it'll play well but it's got some neat forging and it's a nice big asymmetrical map. Probably won't have a working 360 next weekend but hopefully I'll be able to play on it with you guys the following weekend.

Ok! My map has been tweaked with all of the awesome feedback I received last night.
Here's a small list of things that have been done to the map.
-MOAR WEAPONS
-MOAR SPAWNS
-MOAR (slightly) COVER
-*New Addition* Equipment! (Power Drainer, Bubble Shield, & Regenerator)
The Defensive base has a different backwall and has been given a little more room so that it is easier to enter from the side with a Warthog.
Those three Kill Balls have been taken out as well (although the one for the jump will remain) and has been replaced by a nice curvy wall connecting the Garage with the Offensive base.
Other small changes have been made, like making it easier to get up to the Overshield. I've went all out on these changes, so much so that I am maxed out on my budget, it won't even let me create spawns anymore! Really can't wait to try this out with you guys next weekend, but in the meantime the updated version will be up in my fileshare for you guys to try out.
I replayed Raven's Nest yesterday after so long and the map feels smaller then I remember, however it was still great fun. I like changing what I do every time I play like carry a dismounted turret gun as far as I can to help kill enemies in the next area of the map or force myself to carry the pistol as long as possible, it could just be me getting better but I feel like I can kill brutes easier with headshots now then ever before.
A guys sorry this is off topic, but bungle made soo, does anyone know if Myth 2 is freeware, I've been wanting to check it out! I looked a bit but couldn't find anything??

Hah, that game was crazy fun. I knew that you had camo and rockets, so I was sort of trying to find you. Five and I were up on the sniper perch when I saw a little blur on the opposite walkway. I was like "Oh shit! He's right th-" and then we were both blown to peices.
Sorry that we didn't play your map, Eazy. I forgot you had made one. And Duel, I can't wait to play your imporved Terminal thing. The first one was fun
yay wraith

Dude, there was just no separating you and the Plasma Pistol earlier!
Hah, While playing last night I realized that Sanctum was the perfect size to use the nerfed plasma pistol on. I just sat up in the middle and rained green plasma death on the flag defenders.
EDIT: Apparently our party full of Brigs and Generals scared off the HaloPAFers.
Hey guys, I don't really follow this thread much so apologies if this question has already been asked. I was just wondering if there's any word on when the legendary map pack is going to become free. I really don't want to spend money on maps but at the same time I would like to get access to the multitude of game modes I'm locked out of right now (namely Team SWAT). I remember in Halo 2 that most game modes (not counting the DLC ones, obviously) were available for everyone to play, at least if you had the maps that were already free.
I also remember that a map pack became free once a new map pack was released. But since the Mythic map pack has released, it seems that this is not the case with the Legendary map pack. So anyone know when I can expect to play some Team SWAT?

Is there any reason why you really don't want to do it? If you really wanted to get access, you should get the maps, it isn't going to change just for you.
Halo 2 =/= Halo 3
I've paid for every map pack so far, including the ones that went free, I don't see why they should automatically dish out free shit because they become required after a considerable amount of time. They made it clear it wasn't going free from day one, you've had lots of time to save up money or whatever to buy it. Tough.
I expect Bungie or any company to treat me with preference because I have spent more money and purchased more products. They do this by providing a top quality online system, that not only keeps me entertained, but also DOESN'T fully lock out those that won't pay extra, everyone gets online, but people like me who purchased additional content get more options.
If anything, I should be bitchin at Bungie for not integrating the content I paid for in a more suitable manner over the past year, but I realise they are doing their best and they are learning, they seem to do a better job with each release and I'm looking forward to playing Mythic when I get my xbox fixed.

So I guess Team Objective is just going to languish with 100 players for the rest of Halo 3's existence? Shishka how can you watch the population dwindle to nothing and not do anything? Good lord.
Backflip has the best comeback ever involving me and him and a shotty snipes snowbound game. It was the greatest win ever.
Ok reading the update, mythic is just being integrated, no other real changes, and then more reused dbl exp weekends AND a playlist that wasn't good in the first place so it was retired...So fail. INSTAGIB.
I also see SWAT Mythic is required, that better not be TUNDRA. I guess Orbital and Assembly are fine in it.

Well it's not like the problem is money to buy the maps - I just don't want to spend money on maps since I don't think maps are something we should pay for. Using my wallet to make a point and all that. Don't Bungie themselves feel the same way? On an unrelated note, I don't really want the new maps anyway, just access to the modes.
Anyway, if the maps not being free and me being locked out of those modes forever is the case, I'm willing to accept that. Again, I'm not really demanding they do anything and if that business model works for them, who am I to stop them? Just too bad for me I guess.
