Hello gamers,
On Sept. 23, Bungie has updated Halo 3 to make use of their new rating system (which gives a more specific experience match when playing), their change of game types and maps, new maps and even new achievements!
The rating system has been changed to where you have instead of only numbers dictating what experienced players you play with, you also go by rating. So, in other words, even if you have the skill number of 40, you're rank can tell players how long you've been on that rank and will match you up with people more of your speed. It's interesting, but I think it's not very necessary.
The game types have been changed and so have the maps. Online, they've added a "Squad" battle which is where you have two teams of six who face off on a map with either slayer or objective game type. I've not played a lot of the new maps, but on the map Rat's Nest, they've added a huge box for cover and with the game type "SWAT", they've added plasma grenades and the Covanent Carbine. They've not added any of the new maps yet, but the map set will be called "Mythic" and they're also adding new campaign levels.
As for the achievements, they've added 30 new ones. Some of the achievements are "Killtacular" where you have to get five kills in a row within four seconds of each other without dying. They're also adding new skulls for the new multiplayer maps and maybe even new armor for the achievements.
Well, that's all for now,
HANG TIGHT GAMERS!!
