    I recommend those who played give feedback for the creators, just to put your thoughts into words for their benefit.

    Epic: This map was a lot of fun. I've never played the previous versions in H4 or MCC, but top gold felt a bit isolated, don't know if that was intentional for slayer (don't know how much top gold played into previous versions). Engagements mainly took place across top green, but it was really solid, I enjoyed playing it. One thing though: I got stuck in the green lifts multiple times, I want to blame lag but I don't know if anyone else got stuck too.

    Transit: This was an interesting map, very vertically challenging. Thought KotH played great on it, the hills didn't feel too open. Felt a bit lost at first, and felt map knowledge helped tremendously in maneuvering, especially around opponents. (Just a tip to Box Knows, avoid picking up your map's power weapons, you want to see how other players get to them, how fast, how often, etc.)

    Echelon: As for my map, it played a game without disconnection, which is good. Framerate still affects gameplay, however, and I will be going back in to cut down on harmful pieces. Thought it played decent, some places felt a bit open or too close together; I'll be going back into the gameplay and seeing what worked and what didn't.

    We should do this again soon, maybe make scheduled testing. I just wish Chain Gang worked, really want to play on that map.

    I'm hoping to get another lobby going this week. Unfortunately, I don't know when I'll be online, so I won't be able to schedule it too far ahead of time. :(
    Hopefully we can get something going either Thursday or Friday evening.

    Yeah, I would prefer Thursday also, and I'll definitely be online. I just don't have any idea what time it will be. Should be close to the same time as last week, give or take an hour or so.

    I'd personally rather Thursday because Friday doesn't work for me. I got a new version of Echelon coming along and I'd love to test it with you guys tomorrow. Assuming Thursday evening, should we say somewhere around 10:00 pm, so those who wants to participate have a timeframe to come online?

    I would be in favor of one of you guys starting up a lobby on Thursday evening. As I said earlier, I don't know what time I'll be on because I have other things going on that are out of my control. I may be on at 9 PM, or I may not be on until after 11. If there are people online, you guys should just gather together and get the ball rolling.

    :(
    If we can get lobbies going for a few weeks, everyone will become more familiar with each other, then you'll probably have better luck.
    We'll get this train rolling. :yes:

    I'll be on tonight by 9 pm EST with or without Chunk to start the lobby. If you're not on my friends list, message me on Xbox Live for an invite. My gamertag is "The Psycho Duck". We'll figure out who should be connection host and go from there.

    Also, there's this cool website called HaloCustoms which would make organizing this sort of thing much easier in the future. ;)

    Cool. I don't think I will be on tonight at all. I got hit with one hell of a cold/flu last night, and it's kicking my ass pretty good right now. Hope everyone enjoys the lobby. :)

    I just added you duck and sent you a message. For the most part, I usually host games pretty smoothly so that option is out there. My GT is Box Knows
