Halo Wars

Halo Wars Updated to 1200
Written Tuesday, June 30, 2009 By Alan Pettit
View author's profile

Halo Wars has been updated with four new achievements for an extra 100 gamerscore, bringing its total to 1200. Now, to my knowledge, the three maps mentioned in these new achievements were from the previous Strategic Options DLC. I have no idea if these achievements are available currently, or if you will need to wait for the next Title Update before they will be achievable. Someone give it a go and let us know, eh?

Update: Wow, shows how much I know! I thought for some reason these maps were included with Strategic Options but they have yet to be released. Well, look for more DLC on the horizon for these new achievements.

Tour Coming Through 30
Hot drop 50 squads to your Covenant Leader in a single game on Barrens.

Never Leave a Man Behind 15
Finish with 5000 net resources tributed to your teammates on Memorial Basin except in Deathmatch.

Drain Cleaner 30
Kill 20 enemy squads with a continuous Covenant Leader Power on Memorial Basin.

Killjoy 25
Disrupt 5 active Leader Powers in a single game on Blood River.

 

[Thanks, Starbuk85]

I havent got the DLC, but as far as i know, it only contained new modes.. not maps.
I really hope they dont charge for this DLC, i mean..800 for some new modes, it was discusting

hoping for a price drop on strategic options. im a huge halo fan but three or four new modes are not worth 800 pts just because its got halo in the name.

@3 Wow, awesome contribution bro...

*sigh* I don't get it? Are they selling new maps for 800MSP? I mean seriously? This content should have been included with the Strategic Options pack. I can't believe I paid 800MSP for that, was totally not worth it... Still, if this pack has more content, odds are I'll get it. I love Halo Wars.

Halo Wars is an awesome game... but the DLC is a little lightweight considering its cost... will have to wait for more details me thinks...

This DLC set seems easy to boost for...then again, so was Strategic Options and a lot of the original achievements. Should still bring more play time and fun.

Awesome! I loved Strategic Options, yes it was kinda "light", but it sure was "new". CTF in a RTS? Love it!

This is gonna be 800 no doubt. And I agree that Strategic Options was a rip off at 800 points... but these are new maps, so I guess I'll be getting this.

Yeah these 10 dollar dlcs are weak. Consider the mythic maps for halo3 though, 10 bucks for 3 maps? Gears2 did that with the combustible maps too. BOOO!!!

#22: I kinda dislike the elitist approach of my fellow video-gamers who populate Robot Entertainment's HaloWars.com, but with comments like yours they can be somehow right when they laugh at people who try Halo Wars thinking that their in for a Halo FPS experience. I mean, I have all Halo games, and Halo Wars is a diferent kinda game, it makes no sense whatsoever to compare. With due respect, that we all deserve, it's even a bit ridicule to compare an RTS to an FPS. IMO.

I love halo wars don't get me wrong, but they can fuck right off if they want my microsoft points for some stupid new modes that you can get the achievements in like 20 minutes, maybe if this is free I will perhaps consider buying the dlc, if not they can lick my balls

I don't know if anyone say this but I hope they change the strategic options DLC to 400 points and make this new map pack 400 points. I think alot of people would by it.

if you have to stop 5 leader powers in a single game, doesn't that mean the d-bomb recharge time will be lowered?

Screw this DLC. I'm not paying 800 MS points just for a couple of crappy modes.

I might as well just get a stopwatch next to me and time myself.

they need to make sure dlc is worth the points strategic was over priced, i say 400 is worth it not 800, like resi versus mode was 400.

This shit should be FREE because Strategic Options was waaay over priced, and i hate that it only goes up to 1200, are they going to leave it at that or release more rip-off dlc?

i think it is great as long as it doesn't cost 800mp ....the last content was a rip off....this better be free and i think they should have more time consuming achievements like.....kill a million units on line or train this many units...something challenging....

Wow ok, sorry to say but you didnt research enough from this game when posting this.
If this is from Strategic Options then I got ripped off BADLY cause to my knowledge there were NO maps in the DLC, so I believe there should be a new one on the way.
Perhaps you should look into it with all your connections and all?
