Hey guys, I'm working on making the biggest, most informative map callout page, and as I complete each level, your feedback would be great.
If I don't find any "official" or "universal" callouts, I make them up. And that's where you come in. For those, if you think you have better names for the corresponding places, then voice them here, and if enough people agree with you, then I'll change it, and re-upload the image.
I'm going to tweak these as much as I can before they can be as useful and accurate as possible.
I will be including EVERY MAP. Regular, Legendary, and Mythic.
I'm going in alphabetical order:
[u]Regular Maps[/u]
Construct: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid1]Done[/url]
[u]Legendary[/u]
Avalanche: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid2]Done[/url]
Blackout: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid3]Done[/url]
[u]Mythic[/u]
Assembly: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid4]Done[/url]
Citadel: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid5]Done[/url]
[u]Other Maps[/u]
Cold Storage: [url=http://gasmaskbandit.livejournal.com/83686.html#cutid6]Done[/url]
Epitaph: [i]In Progress[/i]
Check out the callouts that I have so far, and feel free to start leaving feedback, thumbs up, or suggestions! Thanks.

Construct & Cold Storage done. Working on Epitaph.

[quote]You kinda got Avalanche all wrong. - Shotty is referred to as Upper Keyhole. Each teams cliff is referred to as their or our Keyhole. Spartan Laser spawn is called Lower Keyhole. - The lifts you call 1&2 C dont really have names. But where you land is referred to as their/our LZ (Landing Zone). - The yard is referred to as Mid, the open land on either side of Mid is referred to as their/our A-Frame. - The Shelves are referred to as Catwalks.[/quote] Yeah, I pretty much had to make most of those up, since I couldn't find any resources for Avalanche callouts. Do you have a link that says these are the callouts? Or are these just what you and your friends use. Shotty and Laser is quite faster than saying Upper and Lower Keyhole. Mid makes sense. I suppose the lifts inside the base don't need names. And "Landing Zone 1" takes the same amount of time to say as "Teleport 1". So if a couple other people feel the same way, I'll change it up. Thanks.

[quote]lol @ the Citadel callouts. No one says "blue street". I'll just say blue flag going blue OS or vice versa. Also no one says back alley. Most people just say shotgun, it's not like it's a large area. Also blue plat? Come on. Usually people I play with say blue 2. Did you make up those callouts yourself? also lol, cold storage [Edited on 06.09.2010 12:39 AM PDT][/quote] These ones I didn't make up actually. I searched all over google and forums for Citadel callouts, and these were the most commonly used. The only one I made up was back alley, because there wasn't a name for it. The area is referring to the similar area ACROSS from shotgun. That's what this thread is for though. If enough people agree with you, then I'll change them. Oh god, I'm having to make up all the ones for Cold Storage, since there are absolutely no websites, or threads or anything with Cold Storage callouts. But I'll just post them up, and over time, I'll tweak it so that they are the most commonly used.

[quote]Dude, before you go through too much work, please look at this site. If you click on a map, it will show more detailed callouts.[/quote] That's an excellent resource. I'll definitely keep all those in mind when I get to those maps. @Pistol // I know it's been done before, countless times, and never complete. I'm making a complete Halo 3 Map Callouts.

Good stuff, thanx for taking time to do the newer DLC maps. *saved*
-
Yeah I was just going to say, I'm pretty sure this has been done before.

[quote]Until I saw your avalanche callouts I never even realized one side of the map wasn't covered in ice.[/quote] Glad I could help!

[quote]Don't bother for the really big maps, just concentrate on the ones that actually feature in ranked playlists, since that would probably be the only place people use callouts.[/quote] I know it's not REALLY necessary, but I'm just going to do them all. I figured some people will need callouts for at least every map at some point (even if I personally hardly ever play them that much). XD

Come to think of it, I knew about half of the ones you listed, I guess my list was just off the top of my head. [Edited on 06.08.2010 8:07 PM PDT]

Updated! Blackout is done. Citadel is now in progress. So far, no feedback? So they are perfect then? I doubt that! I'm open to suggestions!

When I look at one I see the other at the same time...not really a big deal for me...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] r3x f3r4l Why do needles and needle pit need separate ones? [/quote] Theres a difference between the two. If the score was 49-48, and you died on their side leaving a player one shot to knot the score at 49, wouldn't you want a teammate to know exactly where to look? [Edited on 06.08.2010 10:44 AM PDT]
