Yes, if we disregard the typo (;)) and the achievement image

The achievements to me just look like they were "made" just to be made. At least the original ones were challenging but these look like they could be acquired in one day.

Also, how are you supposed to do the Vidmaster achievement? Considering Brutes ride in choppers and some maps have no ghosts.

Where are you seeing the info for that achievement?

It threw me off at first. But when it says Halo, it means the last level. And by the last level, it means the final getaway - using ghosts.

Makes sense.

Anybody else wonder if people who have the katana/security helmet will lose access until they unlock these?
EDIT: just found that SHOUT asked same question.

Most people still don't know that the ghosts exist.
Bungie ruined their secret!

Anyone remember which map in H2 was "citadel.map"?

I can't recall if it was Single Player or Multiplayer. (I think it's probably Purple Reign but I want to verify).

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed Sep 03, 2008 7:49 pm

Citadel was in Halo 3, I assume H2 was a typo. Citadel.map is The Covenant.

Dissolution241 · Post by **Dissolution241** » Wed Sep 03, 2008 8:05 pm

Oh, alright. I had no idea it was in H3 as I've never seen the actual map names for this game. Thanks for clearing that up.

It's pretty sweet though, i never knew till i googled a video just now :-)

Yeah, me either. I watched a video on YouTube this morning, starting from where you kill the Monitor/Oracle, and he ran out and found the 4 Ghosts. I thought that was really cool, but I think it's going to be a hard achievement to unlock, and not very rewarding with 0GS.

Also, it says 'everyone in ghosts', so does that mean everytime someone falls or dies, we have to revert to the last checkpoint?

If so, someone should draw up a map of the driving part of the level and which ones fall.

That would allow us to know where we are, and what we need to look out for.

Maybe a .pdf would be better.

how can they put the skulls on multiplayer maps?

Getting a skull on a multiplayer maps are the same principal as getting them on a campaign map.

CompKronos · Post by **CompKronos** » Thu Sep 04, 2008 10:11 am

but wouldn't be really easy in forge to get the skulls then?

They can just disable it in forge.

I have a theory to do with the 7 on 7 one. The 1.2 AU gives playlists their own individual EXP... right. So I don't think everyone needs to worry about de ranking right now. If you still jump the gun, and go waaay over 7 Exp before the 7th, there's always the Bungie day playlists.
