Have you guys looked at these yet? All big team achievements basically.
Hey 343 why not just take out 4v4 slayer all together and make everything big team? That is clearly the direction you want the franchise to go in.
Does one have a link?..
that was clearly uncalled for… most achievements in the halo series are NOT btb so what is the problem with adding a few achievements
> Does one have a link?..
They look stupid, why would they put man cannon specific ones in?

Ummmmm I was unaware that a few achievements determined the direction a franchise was heading… Calm down buddy you don’t have to play big team if you don’t want to. No one is forcing you to do something you don’t want to.
I can’t wait for these to be Map Pack-specific and then in a month have the DLC playlists be taken out of the game.
So the 4v4 community is -Yoink- on again, the customs community is buried in crap…what else could go wrong?
I fail to see how the achievements are geared toward BTB. They are geared toward the maps in the map pack, that’s all.
I doubt this will happen, but I hope they are not map-specific.

Could you guys actually give reasonable points behind your assertions? It doesn’t help your point when all you say is how you feel without any reason as to why you feel that way.

They’ll manage to -Yoink- something else up, don’t worry. The games only been out for like a month and look at what they’ve already managed to do.
Some of these achievements look annoying as hell, especially the man-cannon ones. They just better not be map specific like the Reach ones… shiver
no these are geared towards luck more then skill. I can gurantee most of these will be boosted or matchs will be ruined as everyone will wait on a mantis or be launching of the man cannons. things like david and goliath, or the turret one are ok, but man cannon ones or game winning kill with mantis… no just no undo them and replace with ones that wont have people waiting on spawns or just jumping over and over, and trust me… Im going to be one of those people until their all gone.
and I can also see those of us who will be doing this until they are gone will be rated lower and lower because they dont play the objective…

Okay here we go:
- Crimson Map pack- 3 new maps. Sweet, right? Nope. all big team maps. they did a walkthrough of the map with ign and about a min into the walkthrough the guy from ign says “Wow this is a pretty big map here. whats this for like 8v8?
343:Well, its designed for 4v4, but you could play 8v8.” The walkthrough is of the smallest of the three maps in the map, by 343 own descriptions of the maps. - there is already a lack of 4v4 maps. Haven,Adrift, Abandon and solace. Four 4v4 maps.
Big team maps. Longbow, Vortex, meltdown, ragnarobot, complex, exile and now three big maps. 10 big team maps and four 4v4s. - All the achievements are related to big team.
- Customs options are horrible that has been covered in a thread that has over 600 pages so i won’t go into detail.

There is no “game winning kill with mantis” achievement. You just have to be the one to destroy it. But yes, some of these achievements do seem pretty luck-based. Reminds me of the achievements that came with Anniversary MP. There will be some boosting going on for these.
Yes, another set of achievements which will be result of grinding and pure luck on some of them.
Achievements like this are stupid.
All they do is encourage boosting them, will they ever learn.
None of these state to be obtained while in matchmaking…hmmm!
