Halo:Reach is just awesome it has made me (a non-halo fan) turn into a Halo lover

 

[USUF]

I blame it all on Marty. He has truly created on of the most original and beautiful pieces of music in all of gaming...and thats with every damn Halo thats ever been released by Bungie.

He the man!

For regular Halo: Reach online players, some good news comes regarding this month's play-list update for Multiplayer Matchmaking.

2 New playlists have been launched, "Free-for-All Arena" and "Community slayer" as well as a bunch of other changes to existing play-lists, maps variants and Gametypes!

Here's the official word from Bungie's Blog

As of right now, our matchmaking support team has deployed two major playlist additions, introducing Arena FFA and Community Slayer, the latter of which is completely comprised of some notable Forgetacular maps. They've also made other, more minor modifications, which we've lovingly listed below. Go nuts!

PLAYLISTS
________________________________________________

Arena

• Added FFA Arena playlist, test your might in this 6-8 player Arena
• Added Unanchored map variant to all Arena playlists
• Players can now change their votes in Arena playlists

Community Slayer

• The first of several new community playlists
• Unaltered maps made by you, the Halo community
• Play and vote. Your voting data controls what rises into the ranks of official playlists!

Team Objective

• Cleaned up entries in the Team Objective playlist, we now offer the best of the best

MLG

• Maps updated to v2.1, this includes fixes to weapon spawn times

Team Slayer

• Adjusted weightings in response to voting data, default “Team Slayer” should now be available more often

MAPS
________________________________________________

Asylum

• Added soft kill volumes to the rocks leading up to the ledge on the right side of the Red Base (AKA, Infection camping grounds)
• Adjusted the placement of the large rock on the outside ledge of Red Sniper spawn

The Cage

• Added soft kill volumes to some lower areas outside of the intended playable space

Anchor 9

• Modified the size and shape of the center hill object to better fit the area in KOTH games

Breakpoint

• Reduced the radius of the safe haven in the greenhouse

GAMETYPES
________________________________________________

Big Team Slayer

• Now 100 to win!

Elite Slayer

• Modified loadouts, Armor Lock is now accompanied by a Plasma Rifle instead of a Needler

Rocket Race

• Motion Tracker is now Enabled
• Hud-widget for KPH is now in the bottom center

Powerups

• In gametypes built from the latest matchmaking variants, powerups should now function as they do in Forge
• You’ll need to save off the latest game variants from your temporary history to take advantage of this!

I tried FFA Arena last night and absolutely loved it. This game is so much better with DMR as starting weapon. Can't wait to hop online later tonight and try the Community slayer and see what the normal public has been doing in Forgeworld.

and they replaced teh needler with the Plasma pistol in the armor lock/needler combination of Elite Slayer cuz it was too over powered ..

Holy Sheeeeeeet!!! Thats Awesome!

Community Slayer is the one that il be playing a lot

 

[omarko]

what if i dont have a HDD or i have an arcade. would it in ANYWAYS effect me when i play reach?

 

[Gizmo]

^^No, Not at all.The HDD install cuts load times a bit but you don't NEED it.

you might wanna give that a second thought community slayer is filled with highly skilled individuals : Legends and Field Marshall. Iv found myself getting owned at times, ways in which i would never have imagined

 

[USUF]

I've played FFA Arena alot and although its filled with skilled players, i was also able to get extremely good pings in all of the matches i've played so far. I believe this might be the same case with Rumble Pit playlist as well. Since voice communication between players is disabled, i guess that cuts down alot on latencies.
