Second quote, I said "just call me a bluff" also, very obvious. It was a joke. Hell, I even said "We'll see just how right I am when the maps come out", which implies I'm just guessing, doesn't it? First quote I said 70% (not 100%), meaning I could be wrong. Third quote, the whole ";D" and "*Coughcough.*" also imply I was joking... And they've said before that the maps would be released as DLC /after/ the game comes out, and DLC is always released on a Tuesday; And if you look at the previous releases, it's usually mid-month. The 17th /is/ an unconfirmed official release date for the map pack DLC. I didn't claim that on my own, that's from numerous sources all over the internet. What's with people trying to prove a point about something that doesn't even matter?

I didn't realize I was talking to down to anyone. But I guess when I said "Don't tell me you know what you're talking about. :3" that it could be taken offensively, despite the cute little ":3" face. Again, all apologies, including to commanderfarvel. I have no excuses, just not handling my emotions very well with all the stress I'm dealing with. Didn't intend to take it out on anyone in any shape or form...

Sorry for confusion, but thats exactly how i think of halo, halo wars i didnt add in there yet since i havent played it it. THIS IS MY Opinion. Edited by AlwinRoth on Feb 2, 2009 at 05:03 PM |

It was really the first shooter I had ever played and it was really fun. On the PC, I love the multiplayer alot more. Halo 3's multiplayer in my opinion was total crap. I have a pretty decent connection to xbox, and the game's lagged like hell. The campagin was ok, had some nice gameplay and graphics but I felt as if Bungie had run out of idea's for it considering ALOT of the level's felt that they were based of Halo 1's. In all, I think Halo 1 has beaten both Halo 2 and 3 by a longshot. Even if halo 3 has better possibility's because of its engine, I still think it could have been alot better. |

Halo custom edition is the best of the four games. Its the only one that can breath new life into halo's gameplay, which can get pretty bland after a while. I liked halo 2 for its story. Halo 3 was basically halo 1 and 2 cramed together with a mediocore story. Over all, the halo series is the poster child of multiplayer fps gameplay, but dispite this I would much rather play other games like COD4 or gears. I only play halo 3 for custom games now because its the closest I can get to HCE. Basically what halo3 needed from the start was to smash their gay forge idea to bits and burn it in a fiery grave, and then replace it with a map editor like far cry 2.
in short: HCE>H3>H2's campaign>HPC |

Halo 1 had the best campaign, hands down. Halo 3's was the worst, imo... Especially their rendition of the Warthog Run. It was fun at first, but it was horridly thrown together without any purpose. You're driving a warthog on a bunch of floating black platforms that are exploding at random... Halo 1's at least made sense, but was still fun.
Halo 2 had the most original and best designed multiplayer /maps/. Lockout was wonderful, Midship was pretty good. Zanzibar, Coagulation (which was like Blood Gulch; but better, imo), Ascension... They were all wonderful. Halo 3 had the best /gameplay/ for multiplayer, due to the addition of Forge and custom gametypes. Not to mention that having Team Snipers in matchmaking is wonderful. That's my opinion on the Xbox titles. Halo 1 PC > CE, just for the custom maps... H2V, I can't really compare. It's got better graphics, and is more updated; but there's less to customize. It's definitely better than H2 for Xbox, but I'unno. I'd rate it lower than H1 or H3, even for Xbox. I personally like Halo 3 somewhat more than CE, because it's /easier/ to make your own maps for, even if you can't customize them as greatly as you can with CE... Not to mention the community for Halo 3 is giant. Whereas, CE, there are very few servers even open, after the latest update/patch (1.08)... One thing's for sure though; if Halo 3 is ever released for PC, but still can be customized at the same level or higher of CE? It'll be the best. :3 |

Its full of BR worshippers, MLG wannabees, and 10 year olds claiming to be twenty(yes, its true i've seen it) being big doesn't nessisarily mean your the best, this goes for gaming communities and penises alike..

I'm sure TS is in Halo 2, but I'unno; I like Halo 3's matchmaking. And, there are those types of people on CE too. People who, when they lose to others that are better, will quickly start crying "Aimbot!" "Hacks!" and other pathetic excuses for their loss. It's a hell of a lot harder to get a game with people in it on CE, than it is to wait maybe 3 minutes at most for matchmaking to find players. I'm not saying CE isn't absolutely wonderful. It is... It's just that, the community has died down, and for basic overall gameplay, Halo 3 really is wonderful, if you can afford Xbox Live. And besides, the BR is a wonderful weapon. I see more people trying to kill people at a distance with an AR than I ever find people who are actually good with a BR. Also, Halo 3 doesn't have any "lead" to deal with (which is semi-realistic in the first place, but mein Gott, PC and CE take it overboard)... The BR is at least more fair than the pistol, in all honesty. 4 headshots is harder to get than 3. If there's anything to complain about the people on Halo 3, it's, yes, the 10 year olds. Especially when they have a microphone. I mean, scheiße, that's where the real chaos lies. If I hear them, I mute them, immediately. Aside from that, it's the occasional lagswitch (which is rare, lately, but still happens)... But you have just as much problems in Halo CE; occasionally, people using aimbots. Sightjacker can be used to an advantage, such as finding campers' locations. Etcetera... I guess we can close it with one statement: Halo 3 =/= Halo: Custom Edition. Not better, not worse. Just not the same. They each have their ups and downs, and are essentially two different games for two different platforms. Both are wonderful.

Oh yes those **** sometimes do say im aimbotting :( . Espcially one guy called A Russian. He seems to be stalking me to whatever game i go and say aimbot!! jakcnme is an aimbotter! kick him!(In fact, i do not know of any aimbot that works on 1.08)
Anyway..... IMO Halo 2 xbox>Halo xbox>Halo PC> Halo 2 Vista> Halo Custom edition which is more or equal to Halo 3. Halo 2 Vista would be better if they didnt make it vista only. Sure it comes with a map editor but the community is too small due to its OS limits. I agree that Halo 3 would be great if they ported it to pc.Whatever they do, please not Halo 3: For Windows 7 Edited by jacknme on Feb 3, 2009 at 05:32 AM |

Quote: --- Original message by: XimwatchingyouX Has anybody noticed that we sorta got off topic now? Define off-topic. Nah, you're right... Here's a thought though. It doesn't matter really what all you can and can't do with Sandbox, such as all the various things I've suggested... What DOES matter, is that it's confirmed to be practically the size of Standoff, and is a flat ground map. So, it's like Foundry, only larger... Thus, you could actually make a lot more with it. I would love a new Grifball map on Sandbox. Or I could eventually finish my own map, and just shift it over to Sandbox instead of Foundry. <3 |

However multiplayer was too serious most oftenly. MLG, KSI, MoB and that crap really was stupid. Indeed, it was a good game, I am playing it now! lol But the online is a bit slower and not as efficient as Halo 3's =( I like the pistol in all the Halos', its very effective, if in the right hands. lol |

Wait... ... Did anyone understand what I just said? Because I sure as hell didn't. Quote: --- Original message by: Advancebo Quote: --- Original message by: DarkHalo003 Ha, I remember when we used to play Grifball on Sandtrap. Good times.... I wonder if Sandbox will have walls and boxes... and alot of them All of the items you saw in the screenshot (first post) are usable. So, yes, there are walls/boxes. The boxes from Foundry aren't there, no. And I don't know for sure if the r/g/b boxes from Avalanche or Blackout are there or not either. However, the standard "wall" piece, which was the dark brown metal piece, and had Wall, Wall (Corner), and Wall (Double) will be there most likely, as they're usable pieces in /every/ map so far... Still... It'll be pretty good as far as editing. Bungie has confirmed that's what Sandbox was intended, was to be a new map that is as compatible with Forge as possible, so that users can create whatever they want without too much limitation... Reason being: Everyone complained about Foundry being too small. I thought it was decently sized, but it's good to have a larger one now. Can't wait to be able to play it though. <3 Also, since we're all making claims to pointless things: page 4 get. Edited by MF Boom on Feb 3, 2009 at 11:22 PM |

Quote: --- Original message by: CLS_GRUNT Your doing it wrong. no u Who would've thought that this forum had 4channers? And /b/-tards for that matter. Yes, I just broke rules 1 and 2. They were ripped off from Fight Club in the first place. Also, the URL to xbox.com confirms my claims that the map was intended to be used for Forge, as noted by the caption under the picture... Though, I do wonder; aside from Sandbox, is anyone else looking forward to /all/ of the maps in the Mythic Map Pack? Including the second set (with Halo 3: ODST), of Longshore, Heretic, and Citadel? I want some leaked pictures on those already... I picture Longshore at least /slightly/ similar to Zanzibar/Last Resort in the sense that it'll be a beach, but it's going to be large like Sandtrap, probably larger. I expect another vehicular warfare map like Avalanche... Heretic, I expect to be another Forerunner/Covenant structure, like those we saw in Halo 2 during the gameplay of The Arbiter, to kill the Heretics. I'm not really sure what it'll be at all, aside from that. Citadel, on the other hand, I picture something very similar to Epitaph and Construct. Slightly Human in design as compared to Covenant, but very futuristic. Perhaps sort of like a modern remake of Wizard / Warlock, just obviously not exact (since all the remade maps have related names; Blood Gulch, Coagulation [both blood-related]. Lockout, Blackout [self-explanatory]. Wizard, Warlock [magic related]. Chill Out, Cold Storage [temperature related]... Etcetera.)... Halo 3 might actually be worth playing once all of these maps are released. Perhaps when those maps come out, they'll release an expansion map pack CD like they did for Halo 2, containing all the maps from Heroic, Legendary, and Mythic (first and second sets), for those who don't have Xbox Live... |

Heretic is a Midship remake. And Citadel is based off of the towers you deactivate in The Covenant from Halo 3. Don't remember source, but there was a topic at modacity that quoted it, unfortunately there was no link to the original web page which I saw before the topic.
Quote: I was invited to play the new maps (minus Sandbox) at Bungie HQ along with some of the biggest community people in Halo (Louis Wu, Cocopjojo, Voc, etc). So I thought to give you a small, small heads up, I would help you out with a little bit of information. Okay, so here we go: Assembly: small to mid-size map. Bowl shaped covenant scarab factory - you've seen it. Heretic: Midship remake. The ONLY - and literally ONLY - difference any of us could find (we tested all the jumps) was that jump pad on top, where you can jump up and get the sword, it was bouncy whenever you jumped or threw grenades on it in H2. It wasn't bouncy in Heretic. Everything else was faithful. Programmed into the map is BR/plasma nade starts. The sky box when you look out the windows is AMAZING - it is a view of quite a few Covenant carriers and ships coming into possibly our Solar system, and you are looking out from the belly of another ship. There is one that is really close to you and you can see amazing detail on the ship. There is a planet nearby too. Orbital: I played 8v8 on this map, and it was WAY too many people. But it was a lot of corridor shooting. I never got a chance to explore this map (this was the only game I played on this map). It was obvious it was some sort of orbiting platform around earth - most likely a MAC cannon. There were quite a few computer screens on top of every entryway. Very neat. Longshore: Wow. Easily my favorite map of all of them. This is a BTB map, and it is along the docks of OLD Mombasa (confirmed by Lars). There are even little maroon dinghies with small engines at a part of the map (I poked fun and said "I guess they never changed the design of small boat engines in 500 years, the employees got a laugh out of that). When you look out to the water, you see 2 LARGE carrier ships off in the distance, with pelicans and longswords and a couple other planes of some sort. It is AMAZING. There is a 2 story building on one side (base 1) with the roof also being accessible, and another 2 two-story buildings on the other side (Base 2). A center structure (kind of like a warehouse/boat storage facility) separates the two bases, and there is up at the WAY top of this structure an extendable bridge that drops on the roof of base 1. Lots of other buildings/crates/places to hide. One side of the map is all ocean, the other side is blocked by a large building that is part of the boat warehouse middle structure. This fish picture/drawing that was being handed out at PAX was a billboard on this map. Citadel: I played this map with Lars. This map was LARGELY inspired by the level "The Covenant" when you were inside of the Forerunner structures, right after the battle with the Hunters who were below the elevator platform. When you have to go around and up an angled jump to battle a few brutes and buggers to get to the platform, that part is almost exactly in the map! It was really cool and was a good close quarters map. Two overshields spawn, and there is a central location with a small structure in the middle with Rockets on top. There are a lot of things hidden in here, very cool map. And Sandbox they didn't let us play (none of us have any idea why?) and said nothing about it either. This is just to give you an idea of what everything is about. ~Williams Edited by delta49 on Feb 4, 2009 at 06:34 PM |

Yes, I just broke rules 1 and 2. They were ripped off from Fight Club in the first place. Also, the URL to xbox.com confirms my claims that the map was intended to be used for Forge, as noted by the caption under the picture... Though, I do wonder; aside from Sandbox, is anyone else looking forward to /all/ of the maps in the Mythic Map Pack? Including the second set (with Halo 3: ODST), of Longshore, Heretic, and Citadel? I want some leaked pictures on those already... I picture Longshore at least /slightly/ similar to Zanzibar/Last Resort in the sense that it'll be a beach, but it's going to be large like Sandtrap, probably larger. I expect another vehicular warfare map like Avalanche... Heretic, I expect to be another Forerunner/Covenant structure, like those we saw in Halo 2 during the gameplay of The Arbiter, to kill the Heretics. I'm not really sure what it'll be at all, aside from that. Citadel, on the other hand, I picture something very similar to Epitaph and Construct. Slightly Human in design as compared to Covenant, but very futuristic. Perhaps sort of like a modern remake of Wizard / Warlock, just obviously not exact (since all the remade maps have related names; Blood Gulch, Coagulation [both blood-related]. Lockout, Blackout [self-explanatory]. Wizard, Warlock [magic related]. Chill Out, Cold Storage [temperature related]... Etcetera.)... Halo 3 might actually be worth playing once all of these maps are released. Perhaps when those maps come out, they'll release an expansion map pack CD like they did for Halo 2, containing all the maps from Heroic, Legendary, and Mythic (first and second sets), for those who don't have Xbox Live...

I was just giving you a site that had the proof on the page, and was believable. No insult intended at all.

^Read^ Sandbox now has 2 budgets. The second is called OLN (Which is short for Outdoor Living Network). Basically the map can only have a curtain amount of "Unique" objects. Once OLN is full you no longer are allowed to place anymore objects. Even if your first budget has room, once OLN budget is full you cannot place anything else. |
