Ummmm . . . Go to the store and get a new subscription!

[Null Parameter]

but they are not in campaign!!!
How do you know they aren't in campaign?

[PsychoBucket]

Each new skull is the name of a mythic map.

And you are getting this information where?
One name could easily be a coincidence.

[PsychoBucket]

Hang on I'm saving the pic.

[Ja Red is Ninja]

[PsychoBucket]

Ok here it is, but you could also go to xbox.com

Wow, hard to believe that they are putting skulls on MP maps. Doesn't seem like there'd be much to explore. And releasing these achievements really gives away their plans. Looks like we have 6 more maps coming guys!

Nice Find!

Also, all 6 of these maps are coming out in one map pack . . Mythic.

Here is a quote from bungie "Signed in users will see the new Achievements that mostly become available when TU goes live. One of the Achievements isn’t available until Sept. 25 (the Anniversary of Halo 3)."

Which means all of these achievements will be available before the 25th except one (Vidmaster Challenge: Annual). So, there is a chance that the mythic map pack is coming out at 2AM Pacific Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While it is a possibility, I doubt it. We've only ever heard of one of these maps so far, and while it would be an amazing surprise, I just doubt it.

But, we can only hope, and stay up really late.

There isn't a good chance that it will be tonight, but I think it will be soon.

Some people were saying they might be on a disc because the point limit for one game is supposed to be 1250 but with these new achievements it goes way over that. The only problem with that is that it would have been leaked by now from stores that sell games.

IF it were already out to retailers. Otherwise if it is planned for a further out release date, then that statement wouldn't be true.

[PsychoBucket]

Well I'm gonna go to sleep, and wake up in 4 hours to check.

[thatdamnhippie]

Ahh auto update today?!??!?! I forgot!!

[PsychoBucket]

Yah and no mythic maps :thumbdown:

[DeathsFriend22]

lulz ya those new maps will have skulls on them - HOWEVER:

I believe they may be outside of these maps. we may have to forge our ways to them. otherwise the skulls could be abused in Matchmaking. In which case we are the perfect group to find them :)

Also, they won't be in campaign, because it would take way too much work to program those in with an AU. Apparently it's nigh on impossible. So yeah...

Or they might make you turn them on for them to work (which would not be in mm).

how would you turn them on if they are multiplayer maps? can't you only use skulls in single player?

...or they could be adding skulls to the multiplayer settings for different game options not normally available in the custom game settings. That would actually be pretty amazing. It could definitely help mold new mini game and infection ideas.

What makes you think they would add them to mm

I mean to say 'can't you only use skulls in single player'

I went to xbox.com to look at the new achievements and saw these, it's not exactly a find, just a advantage to those who bothered....;)

Also I would like to point out that Bungie did say that there was going to be a big surprise, and it may be possible that the mythic maps were not finished by E3. If you look back over the updates over the last year, they shows that they have been working on something big for a while, and 6 maps would take a while. There has been some speculation that the Mythic Maps will be released on the 25th as the 'Big Surprise' but theres no hard evidence.

[xInfamous2x]

hopefully connor. id love to see new maps as a surprise. especially to keep halo up with far cry 2's release.

But.

has anybody noticed the similarities between headlong and long shore?

Long in both names
Headlong did sit on a Shoreline
Achievement calls for a ghost spree on this map "meaning it has to be a bit larger then normal size"
Another achievement calls for tanks in forge "meaning a large map for the pack"
An Overwhelming community response towards remaking the map on bungie.net

[Null Parameter]

There aren't any achievements that require tanks, one is just named "Tank Dropper", which is the cliche way of killing somebody in forge, which is what the achievement calls for, killing someone in Forge, that is it. Although, I'm assuming anyway that at least one of the maps will have Tanks on it.

It can be anything, and I think you are right to assume such, just remember.

Assume= Making an 'Ass' out of 'you' and 'me' ;)

'cept he said "assuming" meaning 'ass' out of 'you' and 'ming'... those darn Asians.

I'm excited for the new maps/achievements but I continue to not play halo without a working mic... :(

[Shell]

I'm thinking Sandbox will be the only map with a tank, although Assembly + Wratih = An awesome Minigame idea.

[DeathsFriend22]

gah tom get a damn mic!!1eleven!1!
