Spire and Foundry are both good, Tim! What are you thinking? More like Reflection and Pinnacle.

I hate both of them. Like, I cannot think of anything positive to say about Spire but I suppose Foundry is decent for TD in Halo 3.

I like Reflection. I played it a lot when it was Ivory Tower in Halo 2.

I haven't played Pinnacle yet so I have no opinion on that map.

You can push teammates off the top of the Spire, making it one of the most amazing maps in the game.

If we play Invasion, I can do it Live if we try hard enough. It's fun if your team's camping the top, they poke their heads over to try and pick some people off and you shove them off.

I'll be up for playing, I'm usually on.

I was playing through Winter Contingency earlier today and the one Bob attacked me and a friend while driving hybrid Bob in a truck. Anyone know why this Bob was aggressive towards us? I've heard only the Bob in Lone Wolf was aggressive.....

Haha if only I played this game more often. I would reach that rank.

But I've been hella busy with work/Navy stuff/Starcraft II

Lmfao, I've done that before. If they're standing by the edge we would just go and nudge them off. One guy was on a killing spree I think and me and a friend just walked up and pushed him off, funniest thing ever.

Also, they need some new maps. :mad:

SALUTE!

Gentleman of SWF...

I'm going to begin work on custom games/maps.

Do I hear any requests?

I had wanted to get some games such as Mike Myers made, Search and Destroy, among others (for you CoD nuts), but am willing to work on maps with you guys as well.

Also, start sharing your custom games/maps if you have any!

ODIN, I'll help. I set out to make my own based on the Asylum area but never finished.

Didn't you and a bunch of other people play Invasion on my Air Tower map a couple days ago? That was so epic. Sorry I couldn't find the updated version of the map, must've had something to do with the fact that I'd saved it offline.

Yup, and that's exactly why I'm motivated to work on stuff.

My map is almost done I think; testing it now, and I've run into spawning snags. X_X

Which is one of the two things I dislike about Reach.

The penalty for quitters isn't that great of a punishment. And the ranking system just shows who plays more.

Halo 3 had like the best when it came to competitive ranks.

Speaking of which. I'll probably be playing SCII/Halo 3/Reach all day.

Poopy. Yeah, I'll start using pics if people want stuff. I just gotta pry myself away from Reach for a while, which is really hard to do.

Halo: Reach Noble Map Pack coming Nov. 30

http://kotaku.com/5663727/halo-reach-gets-its-first-map-pack-next-month
http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/14/halo-reach-noble-map-pack/

The Noble Map Pack will include three new maps and new Achievements worth an extra 250 Gamescore points. It will cost 800 Microsoft Points, or about $10.
The first is Tempest, an abandoned shoreline facility featuring two symmetrical bases for 8 – 16 player fights. Anchor 9, an orbital dry-dock controlled by the UNSC, is a more intimate 2-8 player affair. Finally, there's Breakpoint, a series of frozen, modular archaeological labs for 8-16 players fracases.

Aww, that's a shame. I was kinda hoping for another Forge World-esque type of map in a very different setting. Still, though, these look reasonable. Fighting in the orbital station in Anchor 9 would be pretty cool if you could go outside a little more freely than in Zealot.

It's about time they released some map packs. Not enough multi-player maps in Reach in my opinion. Let the locking out of multi-player playlists begin! Yay! :)

Although they definitely need some new maps, I won't be getting this map pack most likely. Future black ops maps > halo maps.

Also, I've been playing swat a lot lately. The more I play it, the more I hate it. I used to think it was fun, but it's an absolute campfest, especially if you play on asylum. Everybody jumps on top of the map and crouches, resulting in your entire team being spawn killed for about ten minutes straight.

Team slayer with a group of people is by far the most fun for me.
