IGN: Halo 3 Title Update 2 Interview Dead dreams walking... dead dreams walking... Some other juicy information in that story too, worth a read.
lol, like I said back when people first started raving about the EDGE acceptance vid. It's just a Bungie build version of a map. As for the second part of that quote, I still wouldn't get my hopes up. Forge functionality and a forge play ground like Foundry are two different things. Blackout has forge functionality. Rat's nest has forge functionality. However the bit about there being a reward other than gamerscore for the three vid master achievements does have my attention.
If the achievements on xbox.com are anything to go by, one of the new maps is named Sandbox, which is promising (though there is apparently a skull hidden on it... I mean, I'm sure you could find a place on foundry to hide a skull, but still, intricacies and hidden spots =/= forge playground)
Could be like the IWHBYD Skull only instead of jumping through hoops you have to set certain items down in a certain way in certain areas... Who knows, speculation can e fun I suppose but there is no real point until the maps are released. So the real question is, will the maps come with TU2 or will they be separate downloads.
Methinks the maps will be September 25th. It's clear the Vidmaster Achievements are something special, but at least one of them you can't get before then... Or at least I hope so, nothing more annoying than unavailable achievements over a long period. I really doubt we'll see it WITH the title update. Title update is free, map pack with (5?) maps will not be, especially after we got the title update and cold storage.
They might have a default map with a skull on it. Placeable skulls, lol. I'm guessing: 1 map free on 25. Mythic announced on 25. Mythic released 3 weeks later.
Map Editor, use of words. It is Forge, will remain Forge, but people said Map Editor, so Bungie is using this to their advantage, a use of words. No, I think it is un-deniable we will be getting a new Forge oriented map when the rest of the maps come out. But until then, let's remain pessimistic everybody =D
WAHY cannot bungie be straight foward lol so i dont have to deal w/ ThOuSaNdS of speculations lol... like Forge getting better next march... or new maps 7 same as b4 hidden skulls... or even put something we want to hear in the updates like IDONNO pictures i no wat ur all thinking... ( i no im psycic) Boyle ur getting rational Bungie give us picture of the Maps they are going to release... take a deep breath n but ur pecker back in ur pance lol hah TERRETS GUY is my idol lol... deep breath pants check still... GiVe us PiCtUrEs plox lol okay im done now
Whenever bungie releases information, people think its a code to mean something else. Very much like the movie 23 with Jim Carrey. Simply put people see things that they hope are there.
