How to unlock the new map

There is a bug in the game. According to Bungie, all you have to do is finish Campaign on ANY difficulty level and you should get the new mp map. The problem is, if you did all of the on screen tutorials when they came up ("Press right and A to do a Barrel Roll"), you won't get it. You have to ignore one of the on screen tutorials, then do what you ignored on the last level. The barrel roll in the banshee is a perfect example.

If you already beat it and don't have (spoiler I guess) (which is a very Wizard-esque map), start a co-op game with your profile and a new profile (Easy mode is fine). Play as the new profile guy, leaving your main profile guy behind to just stand there. Get in the banshee and do a barrel roll...finish the game. The new profile guy will be able to select (map name)! So...delete the old profile and rename the new guy to your old name if you want.

Sounds stupid and it is...but it is the ONLY way to overcome the bug.

Shortcut If You Already Beat The Game :

I'm talking to a guy that finished the game (I haven't yet, MP has taken over me) and he said that he loaded up the last stage on Easy with a NEW PROFILE, flew around with a Banshee until he got an on-screen tutorial (ANY tutorial counts, i.e. "Hold Y to dual-weild", you don't just have to wait for a Banshee help, ANY help screen will do), then beat the game...

To sum it up for those that didn't get it, if you didn't beat the game already (like me) just skip one of those on-screen tutorials, then try to get that EXACT tutorial done on the final stage...

For those who ALREADY beat the game and didn't get the map, just make a NEW PROFILE (might not make a difference), load up ONLY the last level in EASY in CO-OP with that extra Profile (to make it easier of course, I'm sure everyone played Normal first, unless you're a pansy) get an on-screen help message (easiest to try is a Banshee one for Barrel Roll I here, it happens the instant you fly off in it while fighting), do that tutorial, then beat the game... check your MP maps, and you should have a new map called

Wow...that sucks. But how come Brevity unlocked it? Jafo did too - he at least beat it on both levels....dam, here we go again...

yeah i don't understand it either, maybe they skipped a tutorial or whatever you have to do. i still haven't beat it yet but when i do i hope i get the map!

if you don't unlock it, will you still be able to play it if your not the party leader?

Hmm, good thing I knew about this before I've started the single player.

**No Fear 23** · 11-11-2004, 11:13 AM

damn.. so thats what it was....i completed it and i didnt get the map. ****ing gay...i dont know if i want to go through it again. im sure it will be a downloadable map in the future.

I have not encountered any tutorials of any kind... Of course I am only at the Arbitor stage....? Should I have encountered them prior or after?

**Whisper** · 11-11-2004, 01:34 PM

lol you don't download maps that are already in the game. it's easy to unlock even if you have beat it, just read that bottom part...

You have encountered them if you're on that stage.

They're just the little displays that come up telling you what certain buttons do.

Few examples:

-Press Y to duel wield
-Press 'white' to turn your flashlight on
-Press X to hijack vehicle

The first level is full of them.

That's pretty lame. Is a patch coming to fix it?

**SnoochyBoochy** · 11-11-2004, 05:07 PM

yeah seriously, i hope a patch comes out soon, cause i'm not going to remember that. yeah, i suck.

**natedog8** · 11-11-2004, 10:54 PM

that sounds VERY confusing?
if im understanding it right, how long will it take before you get one of those 'hold y to duel wield', 'press a = stick to do barrel roll' messages?
anybody have a more clear explanation?
btw, ive beaten it.. normal mode... and i realllly wanna get that map!
