The Official Halo 3 Thread

I'm wondering if the new large platform up above it all is accessible via forge. It would be an interesting way for forger's to expand the area of the map other then floating platforms. If it is accessable though, it's probably only via teleporter or mancannon.

Wow why did you guys replace fusion cores with fusion coils? I'll have to forge that. I'm glad Lockout was remade but that is probably the 'least visual appealing looking map I've seen in Halo 3. o_O I'll wait till I play myself though. Best Map Pack eva.
Probably the change in setting. Fusion coils are human, fusion cores Covenant. As long as they explode, I'm happy. :D

I thought "oil rig" when I first saw it too.
Ditto.
 
Trasher said:
Firstly, no you don't, and secondly, follow your own post's advice and stop bringing up the argument again and again of how this map sucks. We all know you don't have that acquired taste for Halo maps.
See, there you go again. Don't reply to my posts if you dont' like them. Simple as that. If you want to re-name this: "The Official Halo 3 Thread of Lockout Remake Fapping" then I'll leave. Otherwise, I was simply replying to someone else's post.

And Domino, you're right, Striker's rank is the reason we're not getting games. I keep telling him to level down.

So, it looks like the glass is gone in favor of...hatches? You guys think those suckers will open up ala the bunker hatch on High Ground.

What would happen to the plasma pistol that appear to spawn there if it does open? Also it seems you would fall all the way to shotgun hall from there if that's correct. Perhaps they open to reveal glass?

Well, they may not open at all, but you could technically have one that dumped you down to shotty and another that dropped you "under glass."

petition to rename this thread "The Official Halo 3 Thread of Lockout Remake Fapping"

I don't want to be an ass, but this thread deserved a title update ages back. Signed. Will agree to support any other suggested title changes.

Wow, thanks to a certain someone, my Legendary Map Pack gifting has gone up to a whole new level.

BELIEVE.

I would like a gift :(

On another note, anyone up for some customs tonight on the heroic map pack? I haven't played halo 3 in awhile and I might switch to bumper jumper from all the praise it's getting.

Use your reimagination. ;)

That being said, how awesome was it on 1-flag, when you could reclaim the garage area during a camping spell? Whether on defense or offense, it was incredibly rewarding to own that garage when another team attempted to sandbag it.

But yeah, it doesn't need to be Terminal - just something big and keen on single-flaggery adventures.

Terminal was the site of some of the most epic Assault and CTF games I've ever had. Trains FTW.
 
I really, really hope that for future Halo games (there WILL be future games) that they do something that is essentially randomly decided variations on the same maps. An example: Before the game starts it randomly chooses between High Ground night or day, stormy or clear.
Saw this elsewhere...but I 100% agree.
 
AHHH!!!! THREAD AM BROKEN!!!!!!

Anywho....looks sweet, takes away my annoying smelling of fetal pig fermaldehyde. Kind of looks like there will be less cover going up any of the ramps...huh.

Now...who wants to help me hit Brigader in dubs or TS? :D

That...and BLOOD!

We gotta get some BTB in tonight so Striker's the only one who can be blamed.

+1
The title has needed changing since forever. Can't the OP edit his own topic?

As far as I know, only mods can change official titles. All Ghaleon can do is change the sub-header, or pm a mod to ask for a title change.

Bah, I wish we could see what the bottom center of the map, the sword area, and the barracks all look like.

God, don't let it be a hammer.

Oh man. I loved jumping in the Ghost and racing as fast as I can to the enemy Wraith, hoping that there isn't anybody driving it yet. Heh, the look on their faces after I blow up their Wraith, turret and Ghost before they realize what's going on. Then my teammates are usually bursting in the base with their warhog, stealin ur flags :)


...only to be exploded by an incoming rampant train upon escape

I was able to help get Oml3t up to a 45, send me a message and I'll do TS or Doubles with you. I'm on a quest to get my 50 as well.
 
I just played a bunch of customs on Heroic map pack with people who haven't played it before and the consensus was that it was pretty awesome. Although they hadn't played Grifball before either, which had a bit to do with it I think. Save One Bullet on Foundry is good, though.
 
centreboat dream dashed

did anyone else think sanctuary's bases were lame, by the way? i like the rest of the map but the geometry of the ramps was weird imo
 
Since we are all sharing....
I just got my 45 (in TS) all by myself!
Next stop.... 50. Suk it down Noobzz!

I'll need some help getting there.
Of course, I'm no where near my birdie yet. I'll have to start playing on double exp weekends.

Correct. For the record, my original and preferred title is "The Official Halo 3 Thread" - no superfluous crap. But these are superfluous times.
 
i think we should rename the thread so it involves something about me and stinkles doing some kind of activity together like hugging. unlike halo 3 there is no losers in hugging

TGS returns?
 
I too am not a fan of human industrial maps - I'm sure I'll play this map to death - but I would have liked maybe crazy crystalline structure like a mix of Snowbound and what we're seeing in Avalanche. No real complaints though - I jumped on Halo 2 yesterday just to mess around on Lockout, and wow is it an incredible map.
 
I won't restate my opinion of Halo 2 map remakes, that said, Blackout's reveal doesn't leave all that disappointed. I still think Lockout was a ugly ass map of monumental blandness but Bungie heard my cries and totally revamped the aesthetics. I'd also been whining about getting night maps in the mix to show off Halo 3's lighting, I really think this will give the map a whole new feel. I'm hoping for a spectacular skybox filled with bright stars and a huge moon.

Can't say I'm that happy about the same old rusty look of the map though.

I'm on with Striker right now. We can't do BTB, but we can do some Slayer.
