Halo 3’s Double EXP Playlists! – Prepare to Drop Pt. 2

You may be wondering how I’m writing articles while writing articles for E3. Well, I’m writing to you from the past. By the time you read this, I may be lost in the L.A. Convention Center: helpless, alone and in need of a hug/brownie.

THIS WEEK: ASSET ESCORT

Note: Asset Escort is a gametype in the playlist Prepare to Drop. In this gametype, you must escort your VIP to specific locations on the map to score. Once the VIP is killed, the round ends and sides are switched. Have fun!

TIP #1 – MISS MARY SPLAT

This is a game of Hammers and Warthogs. The deciding factors of this game are, of course, the driver and the Hammer wielders. When you have a badass driver, you can expect to score some big points. Now what does a badass driver consist of? A badass driver will change the route up a little to confuse enemies. A badass driver will drive fast and make turns while keeping pace. Above all, a badass driver will splatter your enemies you. The key to driving, generally in Halo (and in real life… don’t sue us…) is to take straight lines everywhere. The shortest distance between two points and all that. Also, you’ll be able to get up a faster speed if you do this.

 

 

 

TIP #2 – BY THE HAMMER OF THOR!

   

 

Gravity Hammers are good and all, but did you know it’s best to hit a Warthog on it’s side (clever girl…)? It’s the best way to send it flying, and in this case, flying off the map. Also, remember that two hammers are better than one.

TIP #3 – USE THE MAP AGAINST THEM

 

Rat’s Nest is one big corridor. So when you’re driving a Warthog down these hallways, obstacles can seriously slow your pace. And we know how important speed is in this gametype. When setting up an ambush, it’s a good idea to hide behind the barriers. Not only does it stop a Warthog, it can cause it to flip with the aid of your Hammer if you hit it with the hog is stopped or as it’s approaching.

 

    

 

In another scenario, maybe your enemy hit a barrier and is now a sitting duck. Don’t run towards it immediately because their Gunner will probably kill you. Instead, find cover and toss ‘nades. By this time, the Warthog should be coming to you. NOW you can use your Hammer.

 

    

 

In the event that they fall/fly out of their Warthog, whip your Needler out and shoot them as they disorientedly rush towards you. Disorientedly.
