Wich one are you supposed to get? I dont have anything in my e-mail either, but i dont really care. I have the LE, and im SR 47 so.. Edited by merge: Yay, for silence! Halo 4 Forge Maps - Guardian - YouTube It seems that people have an problem, you have build it on impact. While they think, Erosion was the better choice for the rocks, and the dirty looking pallete. I really have to disagree, on impact you have really strong dynamic lightning, colorized blocks and overall the map does look really good, everything just fits in and looks like guardian. But was this also your motivation to build it on impact and not Erosion? This is one sweet remake, will defenitly download this, as soon as i get on my xbox. EDIT : And that lift is so awesome, but what have you exactly done to it to make it feel that way? Also if you look at 2:46-2:48 you see the 2 plasma,s going in a loop
I got the game early, so I spent much time running around placing blocks and stuff on each of the forge maps. I thought Ravine was too bright and obnoxious looking for Guardian. I have another remake I'm working on now on Ravine. Erosion pieces just look disgusting to me, and the "color" option doesn't work very well on Erosion. Furthermore, there is almost zero dynamic lighting on Erosion. I'll be surprised if I ever make a map on Erosion. Therefore I checked out Impact. Once I found the amazing central glass piece, I started building and it just came together. I loved it so much that I spent like 30 hours finishing it over the next 3 days. Lastly, I can't do anything about the grenade looping.
Has there been any news on whether the DLC with come with new achievements? Edit: Nevermind, I decided not to be lazy and looked it up. http://www.videogamer.com/xbox360/h...son_map_pack_release_date_is_december_10.html
AA's loadouts are done better in 4. My exact defense for reach. My opinions pre-Halo 4 release where unsure with there decisions but I'll see how it turns out (with most things,I even defended some things, Even though they ruined reach MM for me) then played it and it was fun for while with new guns and maps and stuff then this hits me: Lack of depth in gameplay is biggest problem for me (if that was fixed It would be fine for me) Then I'm like least I can just run and gun in my favorite playlist BTB and have some vehicle warfare....Oh wait vehicles are near useless, Then I'm like least i will get solace in forge, oh wait.... Maps suck imo and custom games options horrible and glitchy so hard to make mini games and forge has changed (without a net gain imo) Then I'm like ARG campaign was dull and easy then reading stuff about few big and tons of small glitchs bugs and balancing issues(even tiny things like not been able choose side of vehicle to step out off been removed,Armor color con job in team games) just every day seems be something new that is a inconvenience. Then this thought comes into my head: (As I read about how they screwed over machinima makers) FUUUU Time for brutally honest time, 343i seriously what is the redeeming quality in this game? It's fun to run and gun for a bit BUT that is the absolutely bare minimum requirements of any freaking shooter. Never mind a AAA billion dollar funded game from one biggest Xbox franchises in the world. Which leaves me with question WHY make this game? No massive redeeming value or innovation in gameplay or any other aspect that I can see. Only reason I think of it money and then I have little respect for them if that's the reason. (I would like to be proven otherwise btw)
Halo 4 was created and developed by 343 to make money. Simple fact. They were created by Microsoft to become the new caretakers of the Halo franchise after Bungie stepped down, so Microsoft wanted to keep the money rolling in, so they made a new game. Yes, they did some new things, yes they made changes. Yes, they will hopefully fix some of the errors and silly little things that people cry and make a big scene about because that's what developers do these days, they listen to the community and try and make changes that suit the majority. In the end, Halo is a franchise and franchises are created to make money.
Sky, I have never disagreed more on anything with you but this. Games created specifically to make money and not for the enjoyment of the players fail miserably. The only time you can get away with it is an addition to a popular title like Halo. If that was what was really going on in 343i's mind, they would try to create a game that had high replayability and interesting mechanics. The more you enjoy, the more you play, the more likely you'll buy the next game or DLC, the more money. It seems, however, that 343i is running on Bungie's steam. Why would they deliberately wreck their own game? Makes no sense. The only explanation I can see for 343i's actions is ignorance. 343 needs to KNOW what the community wants, and by the community, not a know-nothing who insists that being given a free rocket launcher for camping up in a cheap spot and getting a bunch of kills is good. Because that's what's happening now. I actually haven't bought Halo 4 myself - I never paid for it and wouldn't have.. gg 343i.
I learned some interesting things about Halo 4 by watching this Episode 1 - Halo 4 Mythbusters - YouTube Episode 2 - Halo 4 Mythbusters - YouTube
I never said games are made JUST to make money, it's the main reason. Games that don't make money don't get sequels, games that make money get sequels because the publishers are greedy bastards and want to milk the franchise for what it's worth. Halo could be considered a "Cash Cow" i.e. a massive franchise that can continue to rake in money for a long time. It was made to make money but I didn't mean it was the only reason, just the main one.
I wonder if you could get the flying high medal for doing this in a hog. Regardless, this makes me happy. Launching mantis's on Impact has nothing on this.
Team Regicide is awesome. Infinitely better than the FFA version if you ask me, and more fun than team VIP used to be due to the king being tied to leader within the team rather than randomly assigned.
The guy representing 343 sounds really uninterested and not even too knowledgable.. When the IGN guy was asking about taking the communities opinions and suggestions, he didn't really know what to say so he just said some other **** like a politician... noticed that, thought i'd say something.
The question was more whether Harvest took community feedback I thought, in which case he had said that the map had been in design for a long time before Halo 4 was ever released. Harvest looks nice. Good for CTF I suppose, though in the end it's CTF that's more of the problem than the map. I would think that with quicker spawns, player speed, and flag movement speed we would at least see a quicker reset time. 35 seconds... not in my customs it isn't, thank you. Oh, and those hog jumps. May not affect vehicle gameplay much in comparison to regular cover, but it just makes the map more fun in my opinion.
