    Most of the pro's have played all of the forge maps and played them a good amount, granted no actual scrims though.

    However at this point they won't bother as they should be announced any day now. So they will just practice what is going to be used.

    Got to admit though, :343: is slacking big time again with their announcements. An actual tourney starts next week on friday so you would expect to have the gametypes earlier than a little over a week..

    Predictions:
    Tesla

    What I hope for:
    Athelon
    Erupt
    (eden)

    Let them have their Tesla, and let them choke on it too. Hope this season falls flat on its face.

    The real kicker is that you would think that surely if the pros like tesla, then they would be blown away by a well forged midship, but no.

    Yeah I am not exited for season 2 and it is still a joke that we are not even using static timers in our "competitive" settings.

    110% movement speed and static timers are the two most obvious things to improve the game but 343 was never intersted in having nice settings...

    343 thinks they have nice setting. 343 thinks. They need to stop that.

    angles were not right even you can nail the scaling of everything using spawn points and go between heretic and building. They are just bias just like we are, but their bias is in the form of buddy bumping and not wanting anything to change so they might have to learn something new.

    I guess we buddy bump to. I don't because I hate everyone.:D

    Really though guys, I really really really hope it's Tesla. Only Tesla. And that season 2 fails harder than anything in competitive Halo ever has to date. Maybe then, after a massive failure, will there be room for real change. Real improvements. :343: needs to learn their sustain team doesn't know what's best.

    I am talking about ryanoob saying apk's midships' angles were not right even though he could go between h3 and h2a to figure out scaling. Yeah I worded it like ****.

    Personally I think it would have been a better idea to see the forge community come together and see who could build the best 2B2T arena map. It's always good to consider the audience you're trying to cater to and if forgers have learned anything in the last 6-7 years, it's what makes professional Halo players moist. :cool:

    Rumors are that no forge maps have been added. Instead 2 ricochet gametypes have been added.

    @SecretSchnitzel you must be really happy right now lol

    Also lol at diesel for saying that Tesla is the only competitive forge map out there

    Edit: just read on beyond that Eden and Epicborough got added! Whoo
    (I'm editing as I'm reading lol)

    Ricochet, lol. I wonder how much testing they've actually done on that gametype in this game... I know there are people that think it has competitive potential, but I just don't see it (at least not at a professional level of play).

    Reading the shite over at BE too right now and I'm not sure what the hell is going on... Epic is in I guess? Eden, I dunno. Ricoshit is definitely in, which is a damned shame....

    As for what maps are actually going in, I'm gonna wait to see an official announcement. Still, I maintain my position of wanting to see HCS S2 fail miserably. The 343 HCS management team, as well as the MM sustain team, are incompetent ****tards and I want to see them fall flat on their faces.

    Well the addition of Ricochet is even more selfdestructing for the HCS than if they would've added Tesla.

    Very true. Like, what the hell are they even thinking with that move? If decisions like this are a sign of things to come (in later titles), I might as well sell my XBone and be done with it all.
