Expect plenty of coverage for these maps this week.

Any word on size or can you not say.

They look small to mid and hopefully that is the case.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

He also makes constantly Tashi ceiling jokes, he just wants to be a part of us

So why not just post? No one here "owns" HaloGAF..


And nice, finally some new info on these maps :]

 

[Tashi]

Pretty sure they've said there are 2 small maps and 1 medium sized map.

 

[lybertyboy]

Starting tomorrow?

We're focusing on the Spartan Ops finale and matchmaking tomorrow, but soon.

2 are small and the third is small to mid size. We definitely agreed with the players that we needed a few more maps in that size range.

EDIT: What Tashi said.

Anyone playing team throwdown tomorrow? Need some teammates! Gamertag= L DIDS L

Are you at liberty to tell us what the original sizes of the maps were going to be, before people started to demand more smaller maps?

Also, based on your data collected and the general agreement that Spartan Ops' second half was much better, is there going to be a season 2 or will you save that for the next Halo?

Hit a slight delay as I has to make a trip home to see the family last week. Should have something up very soon. Planning out the rest of the year and have some cool, designer-commentary focused ideas I'm working on.

Actually I think this pack was always planned to be more focused on locales of this size. As far as your other question, we'll have more info on further Halo-focused content as the year continues. Definitely cool stuff ahead.

Ok cool, thanks.

 

[Tunavi]

FE will fall too. Then I'll pick that up.

You get Kingdom Hearts 3D? That's next on my list.

it won't, but yeah KH3D was great.

 

[Ghazi]

because its so boring.

$20 is not super cheap, spend the extra $ and get an amazing game like FE

I just picked up Sticker Star too at Best Buy, looks so good. Getting some food at Sams Club before I go home.

I don't want to read too much into this but its sounds like we might be getting more content that what the war games pass included.

Edit: Double post, My dick is massive.

The inclusion of Installation 03 in Halo 4 seemed like a gigantic tease, however,

Spoiler

if there is a Spartan Ops: Season Two it sounds like it will have to take place somewhere other than Requiem.

I hope so too. I was kind of bummed to only get to see Requiem in SpOps. Personally think SpartanOps can be the perfect combination between expanded universe, the campaign and the books. Anyway, the dropped already big story plots with last episode. I cannot wait to see how the first season concludes.

Calling it right now: Monolith (or whatever the name of the new Forerunner map in this pack is called) is Midship and Lockout's Tron-loving chocolate baby - Lockout's not the real father, though. Midship got knocked up by Epitaph somewhere along the line.

Is the always-online aspect of Density supposed to have gameplay implications or is it merely DRM? If it can be played solo then how does sharing the game world with other players still factor in?

They're embracing what Microsoft is doing with the next Xbox.

 

[GrizzNKev]

I already tweeted at a few of them but congrats to 343 for FUD winning best drama series at the Streamys. It was one of my favorite parts of the overall Halo 4 package and a very enjoyable watch, especially with people not into video games.

What the hell? What station is this soap opera on?

 

[Thermite]

I just tried to play some BLOPS 2, but my TV just doesn't allow it, no matter what settings I disable it's still lag city!

Soon, I will return!

Also, I'd be playing the shit out of Path of Exile if it didn't blue screen my PC.

LOL

According to several articles it will have gameplay implications. For example as you're playing you will come across others in the world and their actions will affect the world around you.

I knew I could drag you out. I checked their forums, seems like everyone with the same video card series as me is havin' problems. My PC is fine other wise, suck a diiiiiiiiick.

Alright, so now that Halo 2 Anniversary is confirmed. I wonder what maps the Halo 2 map pack will consists of?

OK, that's what I was hoping the implication was. Now I just want to know the extent of that. Like if I go somewhere someone else has already been, could I find left behind weapons/equipment? Altered scenery? Incomplete mission objectives? Will NPCs talk about other players (people on my friends list)?

Knowing that destiny is a FPS is very interesting, I am pretty happy with that.


As long as it doesn't have bloom.

The most fun I had in Reach was in that Forge classic remakes playlist and the Halo 4 Forge playlist. The gameplay mixed with the simplicity of those maps made it unlike what regular MM had to offer IMO.

What's ADS without reticle bloom?

Something different.

 

[bobs...onGaf]

ADS wasn't actually confirmed was it? I dont mind ADS, but considering the MMO nature of the game it would seem odd more than anything.

That's all we got.
