Anyone know if you can get the achievements for the map pack in custom games? I remember doing a few in Halo 3 but maybe something changed. I'm usually not one for "boosting" but the air kill warthog and 20 Mantis stomps...well, if we got a few people together and knocked them out, I wouldn't complain.

I have all of the achievements except the warthog one I'd help though we'd need at least 3 people with 4 controllers or does halo 4 allow multiple guests?

And no they can't be done in customs we can just search for a full game with a full party

No matchmaking only.

Just be careful using guests, in Reach they had people banned for having guests that are not active. I am not sure what the order is, but I think it is an xp ban for like a day and it obviously gets worse.

I would like to do the mantis kills, I have three, but I don't really like using the mantis.

Just sign up for a game session over a true achievements and they should all be pretty easy to do.

We don't plan on doing this all day. Two games MAX. I can do me + 3 guests.

I did mantis legit it was pretty brutal since everyone has a plasma pistol if I got more than 2 a game I felt like I succeeded.

also if anyone wants to do try for that achievement with all marines must live on chapter 4 add me I need that and co op heroic

These new achievements aren't even a week old. Just keep playing and you'll get them eventually.

This. I never understand why people rush to get DLC achievements....just play the game and enjoy it instead of going through a bunch of hassle to add 50 gamerscore.

Hmm I finally broke down and picked up the War Games Pass, I know I'll be playing for some time now (but seeing Borderlands2's Season Pass on an upcoming sale makes me question if I should have held off another few weeks).

Any idea when other game types will be available to play on the new maps? Just not into CTF and whatnot...Would love some SWAT on them.

I already got it scratch me off the list haha.

One question, I got the ODST achievement in the first game when the dlc first became available and it is not showing I have unlocked it on xbox.com. So would I have to redownload my profile again and try to get it again? From what I gather is if you delete the profile and download it again and get the achievement again, it will show up.

Sorry if this doesn't make sense, its just I have never had this happen before.

Not gonna happen. Like I already said, a few of these aren't particularly "fun" and detract from playing like you should be playing anyway, and by the time I got even close to the Mantis one naturally the playlist would have a lot fewer people on it. I want this nonsense over with.

INMATEofARKHAM - thanks for pointing that site out, I had signed up for it randomly in the past but didn't know they had sessions like this. Signed up for one on Saturday AM.

If you want it over with then why even go through it in the first place?

I answered my own question, it worked haha.

The amount of f a ggotry I just encountered for the past few hours has been unparalleled since the game's release.

Unreal.

The lack of details in your story is good enough for me to poop on!

Random teammates running out by themselves while they're the King on Team Regicide, people exclusively using vehicles, people with camo crouching and hiding around utterly RANDOM corners with Boltshots away from the objective

camo + snipers on king of the hill annoy me to the point of me going to hunt them down myself

Camo + anything.

Hey, I got a great idea guys...let's make this ability that's been a POWER-UP for the first 3 games, into an Armor Ability! Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Bungie really ed it up by setting that precedent with Reach.

I feel like I've been running into a lot of idle teammates. Does 343 have any sort of protection against this?
