at a minimum, every tag that is in tsc:e will be available in the source release

There's already a standard DMR at the beginning (when the pelican drops the supply capsules)

I think you have to play on Noble in order to get it.

You guys know the final big room with the 3 generators n' stuff? After you go in & you head straight down and go through the corresponding door to the top, how do we open the second door at the end of that room? For me the Cartographer symbol thing is glowing red.

Presumably you can't open it, the room's just there to function as a Hunter Elevator.

Hm. Well, I guess I'll continue looking for the remaining golden weapons.

Where can i find hunter fuel rod :( ?

Played this map a few days ago, and I do have to say that this is the most impressive thing I've seen on Halo Custom Edition so far. Indeed, this was certainly worth the wait, and it does make me wonder what's in store for the CMT remakes of the other campaign maps.

What exactly is planned for those, and will they be as excellent as The Silent Cartographer: Evolved?

halo ce engine can make things better!

They aren't being remade like this level. Not by the same creative minds.
They are merely being modded.

That doesn't necessarily mean it won't be good, it can still be a fine work depending on what's implemented.

Size is the only thing that matters. That's why LaserDisc defeated DVD in the Format Wars.

ikr

but lode's got this whole passive aggressive thing with masters going on. I don't really question it cuz I respect him a lot and he also happens to be right - there isn't as much appeal for spv3. The visual fidelity bar will drop without many of the new (but time consuming) techniques seen in TSC:E, and gameplay will remain virtually identical to the original campaign.

I mean, it's gonna be something, for sure, but SPV3 is definitely going to be a step backwards from SPV2, for convenience more than anything else.

That was exactly the point.

I have found the golden rocket launcher

It is happening again:


(see OP for updated link. This one will be submitted to Halomaps tomorrow if nothing horrible has gone wrong.)

We've not been able to fix the known crashes related to exploding Fuel Rod Guns. We'll make another try at fixing that issue before the final patch, but it's been with us for years at this point and (maybe fortunately?) it doesn't happen very often. We are also looking into further improving stability if players do sequence breaks or generally out-of-order traversal of the mission. A few other high-effort fixes are planned for the final patch as well.

Excellent.

Is this a bad time to mention that the DMR can one-shot Hunters?

I just assumed it was like that because the DMR is noble only and noble throws like 4-5 hunters in at a time at you.

Oh, and remember how you guys removed the heat-meter HUD for the Railgun Hog? It's still on the noble rocket-hog too.

I played this map on Noble, but it wasnt a happy experience for me a little bit. Like assault rifle ammo was given but not any assault rifle on map and other types of ammo were given but not weapons when i seriously needed it. "Bravo" team was my enemy and were shooting at me. Also the collision of thin trees is not good, my warthog got stuck there and i had to leave it. I think that these issues must not be present in 1.2.

Clearly you didn't get the memo for noble.

That's the joke.

Nah I thought this was always a thing? I've been using the pistol and battle rifle to get the one-shot hunter kills.

Hey guys, I decided to compile everything concerning the golden weapons. Help me out with pictures for the tutorials and the missing info.

Golden Weapon List as of 3/16:

Assault Rifle (MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System): After the pelican-hog dropoff, go into the water to the left of the double ghost and phantom area. Go behind the farthest rock pillar, and the silhouette should show up sooner or later. Basically just the Halo 3, 32-round assault rifle. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's nothing else special.

Battle Rifle, Silenced (name?): found by xnx but need Tutorial/Info.

DMR (H3 Reach DMR ***[{Halo 4/H4MT}]*** [ARCTIC CAMO] DUBSTEP MASTER RIFLE): After the shafted cutscene, walk across the bridge. Hop down below onto the "U forks", 1 at a time, allow for shield recharge. Once at the platform below the U forks, head towards the spotlight. 69 bullets in chamber, 420 bullets reserve. Constant 'chant' 'music' [need source]. Fires dubstep shots [need source], middle finger sprites, and extreme screen shake. Red screen and teleportation upon initial pickup.

Pistol (name?): There are aparently two secret pistols, one gold and one not, but need Tutorial/Info.

Shotgun (Thunder Rifle(?)): found by 1bobsam1 but need Tutorial/Info.

Sniper Rifle (name?): On the giant pillar in the center of the security overide/bravo 022 area, but need Tutorial. Single shot. Fires high damage rounds, lightning for muzzle flash, thunder for firing sound.

Rocket Launcher (Rock-out Launcher): In the first-encounter-with-hunters room, go up the ramp. Hop ontop of the 3-prong covenant crate, and grenade jump to the top ledge. Rocket is on the far side of this ledge, no Keyes head. Fires very slow, homing, rainbow colored rockets. Rocket effects include musical note particles and trail smoke, as well as a techno music [need sauce] sound effect. Damage and blast radius are increased.

Plasma Pistol (Marine Plasma Pistol): There's a bridge above the exit path towards the security override. Ghost boost up there. Green door. Shoots flood-gunk-like projectiles with extra damage. Blood marks for bullet holes. Charged shot takes 10% charge and ignites enemies.

Plasma Rifle (Shield Stripper): After disabling the map room's security system, head back to that non-functional elevator at the beginning of the map. It should now work. Fires medium-speed, high-damage, rainbow colored plasma shots. Extreme damage towards shields, low damage elsewhere. Shooting, overheat and ready sounds replaced by someone's mouth pew-pew sound effects. Battery drains 50% or so slower.

Needler (Noodler): After the interior L room but before the map room, there is a T intersection with a pool below. Crouch-jump up to the edge of the waterfall fixture on the left. Fires slow, flood-gunk-like needler shots. Low damage, hard to use.

Shredder (Shrekter): Found by Danger_Zone_98, but need Tutorial/Info.

Auto-Carbine (Cheer Carbine): Look up at start of level. Weapon is left of the tree trunk. Two grenade jumps should get you up there. Has rainbow meter and bullets, marine hoots and cheers for the bullet and reload sounds. Actually has reverse knock-back; people/things you shoot bump towards you.

Brute Shot (Brute Chute): Found by Danger_Zone_98, but need Tutorial. Shoots highly explosive brutes. Red screen and teleportation upon initial pickup

Spiker (name?): Found by WWLinkMasterX, but need Tutorial/Info.

This list has been added upon later in the thread.

So has anyone found the Badass Rifle? I found it but don't know if it was already found by other yet. It shoots 3 grenade bullet.
Edited by dustyb216 on Mar 17, 2015 at 04:47 AM

I just noticed that you can melee away weapon capsules but weapons stay floating

Unless that's the golden silenced BR you're talking about, then no. Tell us how to get to it please!

Is it just the DMR? I noticed this too, but I'm beginning to think that all headshot weapons can one-shot a hunter if you hit them in the neck. IIRC I did it with the pistol, unless I'm remembering it wrong.



Yeah, I found it on day 2.
Edited by xnx on Mar 17, 2015 at 02:01 PM

Can you show us how to do it?

Can you add foot prints for the beach.

In my experience, the hunters can only be one-shot in Noble. Haven't tried shooting them in the neck though



It's got the yellow stripe!



Just beat Noble. The final boss carries it.



I may have been the first to find one of these, (but only one). It's a Halo 1 pistol (with scope), in a secret room accessed by walking through a fake wall. Don't know where the golden on is yet, but I've come upon new leads and am currently playing the latest version.



It's actually the party gun, and it's found on top of the central rock formation in the canyon connecting the beach you start in to the cartographer entrance.



It's called the storm rifle. The easiest way to get it is to get a vehicle on top of the nearest bridge structure and jump it from there to the nearest cliff. From there jump your vehicle from that cliff to the one with the weapon on it.



Please tell me where to find this.



No grenades are actually necessary, just find the parts of the cliff you can jump on to.




I'll help you with the rest later.

you guys are adorable sometimes

It isn't golden. The ammo scree change colour rapidly. Find it behind the small waterfall at the Fuel Rod Brute, it's a bit hard to see.

No, you people misunderstood me. That's how I call the regular Shredder, lol.

Just found the Christmas grunts. These were definitely not in the the first two releases.

EDIT:



I just sniped both a blue hunter and a black one in the neck on normal. They were fine, one-shots only happen in Noble.




Anybody found the hints yet? :P
