~Marathon-Fest 08!~ Jjaro MapPack Extravaganza!

[url=http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/06/17/marathon-dlc-jjaro-map-pack-hitting-tomorrow/]New Marathon: Durandal content comes out tomorrow (June 18th)[/url]. And I would like to host some kind of Marathon XBox Live Fest/Party. The new content includes twelve maps from Marathon: Infinity, and two new achievements. [quote][/quote] This Marathon-Fest will be held tomorrow, June 18, [i]all day[/i], hopefully. It will be played on the twelve new maps that are released with the Jjaro pack, which is 250 Microsoft Points, and there will be Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, KOTH, KTMWTB, and Tag. Maybe even have a few contests and prizes, no promises though. Although I know these gametypes would be played at least on every map. I will go on my normal gold account [b][i]Tycho X[/b][/i], and I have also made an account [url=http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?pp=0&GamerTag=Marathon+Friend][b]Marathon Friend[/b][/url], which will the account that has the list of members for this extravaganza. To join, simply click the link above and add Marathon Friend. Once I get all the people gathered I will send a message to everyone on the list saying you are in, or whatever, just a certification that you're in the Marathon-Fest. I really want to bring life back into Marathon and have a good time with it, this is why I am doing this. It also may be the only chance where you can [i]actually[/i] find a game on Marathon: Durandal. So please, please join the fest/party. I am going to make a list on here so it's a little more organized. If there is more than eight players, we will split into two groups, but I need another host. If you want to volunteer just tell me. Thank you. [quote][b]MARATHON PLAYERS ATTENDING[/b] 1. Host 1: Tycho X 2. SniperStealth 3. ZayneHumphrey 4. General Wells 5. Saint of Taint 6. brrrayday 7. The Slayer 8. hippieman 1.

So now is your chance to play if you didn't yesterday. Speaking of not playing, there are several reasons why you didn't join my game or get to play. 1. YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE MARATHON! This is Marathon: Durandal people, not Halo. 2. You didn't even have map pack. 3. You didn't know how to enable the map pack, even though I told you through a message, you still didn't know how to enable it. 4. There was a connection error which didn't let you join. Number 4 was probably the main reason because I got a lot of messages saying that people could not join my room. Because of this I will be trying tomorrow, the 19th. So yeah, stay tuned. [/quote] Made it to front page! =D [Edited on 06.20.2008 3:27 PM PDT]

  • I´ll make up a Bungie Extravangaza day on 7/7 (consisting of the Halo trilogy, Marathon, Purger, and other Bungie online games). If anyone wants to help me set it up, PM me and I´ll give you more details. Warning- I am currently on irregular times due to the fact I am near the bottom of the world working in an internet cafe where the internet barely works. I should have access to real internet on the 4th, though (I´ll make a topic that day and publish it).

  • I want to play Marathon online with some people, but I can't ever connect to anyone. I'm in the top 400 players according to the scoreboard, so I'd be a great co-op partner. Someone hit me up: [b]Jayhawker018[/b]. Feel free to just add me and send me a message sometime while I'm playing Halo.

Anyone who wants to play just send a friend request, msg, etc and I will send an invite. Some of the guys posting in this thread played last night and I was lucky to get in for about a dozen multiplayer games and some co-op and a fun time was had by all!

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] YWD_Superman07 btw theres three achivements but the olny way to see the third is to compare the game with your firends its called "so you think your big time" and requires you to play all maps in the total carnage netmap pack i had no clue where to post this "pass it on" "easter egg?"[/quote] Not an easter egg, they just didn't put it into viewing your own because it hasn't been released yet. [b]Next match starts in 2 hours, send those FR's![/b] Sorry guys, I'm bumping it up to 9:00. I'm really busy right now, but I'll get to it later. [Edited on 06.20.2008 5:00 PM PDT]

  • I missed that these events are going on!!!!! My screen name is re birth 7. I still log on daily to find out if people are playing Marathon. I will be on tonight after 7PM PST and would love to play with anyone who is around (I've been around since the Marathon 1 days, worked on some TC's, and vid'ed everything but Marathon Evil back in the day). Looking forward to some competition!

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Chibi 27 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AryzonaBay [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Tarvu Have I missed some news somewhere? Because I'm confused as to why the "You think you're Big Time" achievement has not been released with this map pack. Does it mean they are bringing another pack out?[/quote] Looks that way. I forget who I saw that had that achievement in their list, I think it was maybe Marathon Friend. It said something to the effect of "Win a multiplayer game with at least 4 players in every map in the Total Carnage Netmap Pack". Which would explain the absence of Duality and Thick & Chunky (maps shown in a video preview a while back on 360 Fanboy) from the Jjaro pack. The achievement doesn't show in my list of achievements, but when I compare games with someone it does.[/quote]It must be some sort of bug. It is probably going to be for another map pack (Total Carnage) as you said. I'm glad we now know that we are getting another one :)[/quote] Yeah, that is probably the case. Though, even though this is about Marathon, I'd really like to see Bungie put some Marathon maps into Halo 3, in two map packs of 5-7 maps called the "Carnage" then "Total Carnage" packs. Giant Flaming Pit of Lava in Halo 3..mmm..
