I think it has the most achieves out of any game now 1,750 possible in total, pretty easy to get most the new ones that came with the update, assuming you have the latest maps and some skill

they changed the playlists around and they are better too
even more new maps rumored to be coming soon on the 25th.

all in all good update

PLAY WITH SEVEN EXPERIENCE ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE MONTH

I'll play if anyone wants to boost. I dont care for Halo online.

Vizzys · « **Reply #7 on:** September 23, 2008, 10:21:18 PM »

they ban boosters though

not sure how likely a ban is though, or how they find out exactly

demi · « **Reply #8 on:** September 23, 2008, 10:22:03 PM »

That's probably for Ranked matches. The achievements let you do Social matches

1750 points for one game? Jesus, I thought 1250 was the max.

Had to make room for Orange Box update...

Vizzys · « **Reply #12 on:** September 23, 2008, 11:02:53 PM »

Is anybody up for getting the vidmaster achievement? (beating the last level on 4p co-op with all riding ghosts)

chronovore · « **Reply #14 on:** September 24, 2008, 12:03:06 PM »

I bought it and stopped playing after the first level. I've got all of 25 Achievement Points in it. Is this new update free or does it cost MS zenis?

most of the new achievements are map specific, including some that arent out yet, so in way yes it will cost you $$
but the update itself is free

the multiplayer is fun give it a try on some social playlists maybe, those dont require dlc

chronovore · « **Reply #16 on:** September 24, 2008, 06:44:53 PM »

Thanks, I'll give it a whirl.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #17 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:04:10 PM »

What are the Legendary maps, I don't remember. Rats Nest, Blackout, and the ice one?

Vizzys · « **Reply #19 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:15:33 PM »

very nice.

I think rats nest is from heroic dlc

avalanche is a sidewinder-esqe remake, its awesome
ghost town i think is the third, which is pretty ok too

demi · « **Reply #20 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:17:33 PM »

I was reading about boosting and they're like WE WILL BAN U

I'm like oh fucking well I just want the achievements anyway

Yes, I very much like this map(It actually reminds me of Containment from Halo 2). I completely missed it when these maps first came out and I just dl'ed them when the new achievements came out, but I like them alot.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #22 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:34:49 PM »

Most of the DLC for this game rules.

Gonna wait for the PC version before playing H3 again.

Vizzys · « **Reply #24 on:** October 04, 2008, 10:56:13 PM »

youtubes quality is terrible but heres a clip i made today

killing frenzy

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #25 on:** October 04, 2008, 11:45:35 PM »

Nice vid.

These achievements are a joke, I got 100 gamerscore in 5 minutes. 50 for getting a flag melee kill?

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #26 on:** October 07, 2008, 12:55:56 AM »

I just got a 0 pointer for having 7 EXP on the 7th of the month, lol. wtf?

Ninja · « **Reply #27 on:** October 07, 2008, 05:34:50 AM »

I only need 3 achievements to get the Katana. I might do that when I go home. I haven't played Halo in months though.

Ohh, good lookin out, I completely forgot about that.

Haha, there's a 7 on the 7th playlist, where the number of players in a match is 7.

What does this require? Getting the original 1000/1000?
