Ctrl C + Ctrl V is not a whole lot of work my friend.I've made a few games ofmy own in freaking visual basic and visual C++, it's not too hard.
Ok, we've strayed a bit off topic here... like i said, if you want to find the "Diamonds" look in the featured maps.
Spoiler Unintentional troll, you are my new favorite person on this site! <3 For starters, bungie makes their own dev-kits, and i promise you that they are nothing like visual basic lol. Adding on to that, they even created a whole new engine for Reach that give it the most crazy graphics EVER, and allow for a ton of features that other games cant even compete with, because they love us. I promise they aren't lazy, because the amount of time they spend making each polygon for everything probably amounts to a greater number of man-hours than you've been alive. Its INSANE!!!! Also, my opinion is that forge is great. Ghost merging was cool and all (i would know ) but i just like the ability to be able to make something that works really well, really fast. On a serious note, watch your language. Younger kids do use this site every now and then, and i can imagine there are a few who's parents don't want to expose them to overly crude language. Thank 'ya!
I know they cater to a vast fanbase. However I've been with the series from Halo Ce all the way up to 3. Why did I like those 3 so much more than this one? They had just as much of a fanbase to deal with then as they do now, it just seems so much more attuned for boring. I've already checked the featured maps, there are some I'll try but others I'm not so sure about. There are a lot so I'll go with what catches my eye.
Thanks for being the first person to not be overly mean to this guy... Ben, i recommend that you take his advice seriously. If you can't tell by his epicly red name, he's been here for a while xD
yeah dude im sorry for being mean its just im not ussally mean ever but i recently got trolled alot in one of my threads too and im kinda mad. my bad on topic im sure you will find lots of sweet maps on here
Actually, the only dumb and ignorant one here is you. It's two months since release and Bungie has already made numerous changes based on well thought out feedback on their forums. Bungie's brought back Rocket Race, which was not an original game type at release, so that means they're open to bringing back game types. They've made several adjustments to playlists and even added some, including the Living Dead playlist which was only a DXP playlist in Halo 3. They've made several changes to maps, game types, playlists, and loadouts... and have numerous more planned within the next month, if you bothered to read the Bi-weekly update. The only thing that's lazy is your lack of research before making an educated post. FYI... most people on this site are just fine as long as you don't come on here thinking you're all-knowing and not whining aimlessly. Provide well thought out posts with resources to back up your claims and you're most likely to receive well thought out responses. Coming here to whine and rant over childish things will only receive posts basically telling you to grow up and to think before you post.
Sorry. I didn't realize that little kids would come on a site made for an M rated game. Okay, I did, but I'll try not to use any more "bad words" XD I'll admit that the graphics are good, but I don't really care about that. This is a prime example of why I think the game has gotten worse: Over time it seems that people have forgotten the most important part of the gaming experience: The good game. And by game I'm not referring to shader effects, high polygon count, or any other miscellaneous garbage that seems to have taken precedence over the last few years. I couldn't care less if Bungie went back to H2 graphics for Reach. The most important part of the game is the gameplay itself, the part where you control stuff, and have it interact with other stuff, and then your brain generates FUN. I wouldn't call Bungie lazy at all if they'd done away with all the big flashy garbage that was thrown in and just made the custom part of the game absolutely enormous.
It wasn't funny in the video, it's not funny here. If they focused on just making a good game with terrible graphics, they would probably lose a lot of their casual fanbase. They have to balance looks with functionality. It could be the best game in the world, but it doesn't matter if nobody is interested in buying it. P.S. That's what she said.
Wow, I really can't be bothered to read this whole thread because it's just insult upon insult, and just, uggggghh. I personally like Reach's forge better, it allows more customization in the maps. From the looks of everything Bungie is trying to go away from the casual-ness and more competitive gaming with Reach. When it comes down to it, forge and custom options allow more than enough control over a competitive gaming experience. They also included the basics of non-competitive gaming to give a break to competitive gamers. Also I don't know how anyone really liked fat kid in the first place, just way too slow and boring for my taste. Thats a gametype that I'm glad can't be recreated in Reach (until a TU) I also saw that you think that they should have included a toggle for reticule bloom? Thats would just be a totally wrong thing to have, because that changes the whole ballance/feel/workings of the game. And if you think they're lazy for not having a TU for the game, then you don't know what they have to go through to release one (TBH neither do I) But I can imagine it has to go through at least 7 steps: 1. Identifying what should be fixed/added 2. Finding what code needs to be changed 3. Changing that code for a few test disks 4. Testing the update thoroughly 5. Repeat 1-4 as needed 6. Format it for a TU 7. Send it to Microsoft to get it apporved (which may take a while) Finally I can't wait until Pegasi makes one of his epic shut-down posts in here (if he doesnt ignore the thread because of the excessive bantering)
Dude I cant believe you even posted this thread. If you dont like halo reach than just dont play it(even though i dont see why you wouldnt like it). Personelly I really like the game and many others along with me can say that the gameplay, forge, custom games, campaign, matchmaking, and graphics are way better than some halo games. And I can guarentee that you have found plenty of cool maps. You must not have a long attention span because I have found many awesome maps, including the ones i made, on this site. So basically if you dont like halo reach than just continue to play halo 3.
At first i was pissed "WTF I AM NOT SUCKY AT MAP MAKING!!!!", but then i remembered "SO MANY NEW MEMBERS!!!!!". There are TONS of new members here on forgehub, but there are also a good amount of great forgers. (poop colored) The game is in no way, shape, or form, broken.
This isn't really going anywhere. Ben, it's obvious you have some sort of hatred for Reach; making a thread in a forum full of Halo fans to try and convince you otherwise isn't going to help validate your own opinion.
