Besides it being tedious and boring? Just wondering.

Sorry, for missing this originally. There is an armor set that can be only be completely unlocked by doing the first three episodes on legendary.

If someone wants to team up to knock them out let me know.

I'm doing them solo on Legendary and finding it to be a good way to fill up the Commendations. I already completed the one for a specific type of Elites doing this.

The parts where you face 3 Knights at once in tight areas really suck, though.

I find it really tedious to do alone... even without three knights.

I did Ep 01 Ch 01 by myself and it took far too long to be worth the reward given...

I see the new DLC is out, I brought the season pass when I first got the map so how do I download the pack? Its saying 800 points with no other option.

Have to wait. It's pretty ed (but nothing new) that a game company is treating the more dedicated fans (ie the ones with the limited edition and/or map pass) as second-class yet again.

There should be something up within the next few hours that prompts you to download them from in game rather than the marketplace. For now, only people buying the separate map packs can access it.

By the time most people see this it may already be up. It's almost 8 am EST as I write this.

Still not up, I would have liked to play before work but I guess not.

Any word if these achievements can only be earned on crimson map packs like reach did? I never even played that invasion map where you needed to blow up something

I'm pretty sure that you could earn a map pack achievement on any map in Reach... I say this because I have at least one achievement from each map pack but I rarely, rarely, ever saw the chance to play on the DLC maps. (I bought them all on sale and/or with Halo Anniversary.)

Defiant was the only map pack that had map specific achievements. (except for those three achievements you could earn in customs)


People really want to play these maps I saw a couple of people at the waypoint forums saying they were tired of waiting and even though they had the season pass paid the 800 points to play them now.

Paying 800 for the maps although you have LE/season pass is pretty crazy..

Huh... I guess I'm lucky to have gotten the achievements that I did. I hope that this isn't the case this time, I hate map achievements.

I just booted up. No change on the season pass... As for those paying for the map pack again. I'm guessing they're not members of this forum.

700 people said it and bought the crimson map pack apparently
