The Mythic Map Pack is a map pack created by Bungie for Halo 3.
Summary
Other Maps
Despite some early reports of their inclusion with the Mythic Map Pack, it has been confirmed that Longshore, Heretic and Citadel will not be included. The skulls and achievements for these maps have been revealed through various means, similar to those of the maps included in the Mythic Pack. It has been confirmed that these maps are to be shipped with Halo 3: ODST on September 1st, 2009. The mythic map pack does include these maps and will have all new forge items.
Skulls
All six maps were confirmed to contain skulls, which will give players new achievements. The skulls were meant to be very hard to find because of the number of players in only one game (map). However, the skull locations were discovered in February 20, 2009, and from that day the internet is filled with fans who share the URL between them. The person who discovered them before the pack release and posted their locations was banned from Xbox Live.
Trivia
- If you acquire all of the skulls on the Mythic Map pack, and the skulls on Heretic, Longshore, and Citadel, you will unlock the Vidmaster Challenge: Brainpan.
- The Mythic Map Pack which includes Assembly, Orbital, and Sandbox, is being released in four obtainable ways. The first, being shipped with the Limited Edition of Halo Wars, the second, being on Xbox Live Marketplace as DLC content for 800 Microsoft Points, third, being shipped with Halo 3: ODST, or fourth, receiving a free code courtesy of Bungie.
- In Sandbox there is a Golf Ball, a 7-Wood Gravity Hammer weapon known as the Golf Club, and Golf Holes, known as the Tin Cup, effectively replacing the Soccer Ball, the humorous item of previous map packs.
- Community members have received the maps early through their contributions, and many other Halo 3 players have gotten them through community giveaways such as Halo 3 Mythbusters, and Facility B5D.
- On 2nd March 2009, one day before the release of Halo Wars in the US, the three mythic maps included in the Halo Wars: Limited Edition were placed on the Xbox Live marketplace for the sum of 99,999 Microsoft points. This accounts to approximately $1,250.[1]
