Some of these look amazing. Gonna have to try them out later.
There's only two remakes, rest are new forges from the community. Scavenger looks dope!
It looks like a Dewalt drill.

It looks dumb as fuck. I say this as an expert.
Also, it's worse that the regular fuel rod but a higher REQ level? I mean, charging could be neat but seems not well thought-out.

This is why the Reddit weapon skin is actually a GAF skin, 343 knows where to go for truly good ideas.

Woah, they updated Deadlock with better textures and got rid of the terrible lighting. Looks and plays way more like the original

Having to play full wz games with only a pistol and ar...not getting any xp and no req points is awesome!
Hell yes. Looks like a BTB night for me!

Looks pretty fucking stupid. I would see no reason to use it over a Fuel Rod.
Oh the updated version is in? Nice!

Yeah. The spawns don't switch bases either though... kinda steamrolled a team.
Sandtrap is cool and I think it's the perfect size; the original always felt so big.

I laughed, because I had similar success with the Spartan Laser on the original map years back:

I only have an hour or so to play on any given day under normal circumstances. Looks like I wsated my game time today. And eff the social slayer playlist. Just a bunch of try hard teams racking up kills on everyone. Such fun.
Did you just spawn in the same spot the entire math as well? The match I played on every single spawn was the same one in the lower base.

On that note, is the next |OT| already claimed?

Restarted halo at last 5 times. Restarted the console at least 3 times. Restarted my modem and router once. Still not syncing. I just wanted to earn enough req points to open another silver pack... literally that's all I wanted to do. Now it's time to get ready for work. Sigh..
This OT was pretty good, will someone step up?
I wanna grab if it's unclaimed. Be fun to have a non-work related graphics project for once

As long as you put "

ALL GLORY TO G0SU

No one claimed it yet. I remember someone claiming this one but Braxzy stole it!!!

The one Halo tweet suggests that 343i got rid of hidden ranks in Social playlists completely. Or am I reading it wrong?
---
Rumour is that 343i will use the entries in the ForgeHub 2vs2 competition and create a Team Doubles playlist next based on that.
I'm sure we will see 4vs4 maps in a Social Playlist at some point. Maybe even in a ranked playlist, who knows.

Wow awesome, 5v5 is the last complaint I have.

Doesn't sound like they got rid of it, they just tweaked it to allow a greater margin of skill separation

I'm not sure why I can't mute people but it's the same problem I had yesterday. Last match started with a kid in the lobby either narrating and explaining what Warzone was to his stream followers or he was explaining the game to someone else with the controller maybe playing locally? Either way, I was mashing the mute button in the lobby, during loading, and in-game. Nothing though, had to suffer him.

Am I able to start a party with just myself? Never really used the function on 360 or Xbone.

Cool, I'll give it a shot.
Also, if I can figure out how to find and link a video, I will. Between that last post and this post, I started a match of Grifball. It was on one of the custom maps called Frontier. The spot where the Spartans launch into the arena has a part of the structure that closes down in front of the launchpads, I'm assuming after they are used. Well, the opening animation starts, the thing closes down, and all four of us are still up there and not in the arena. The enemy team must have loved it because they were well on their way to the second goal by the time one teammate was able to kill three of us. He was unfortunately stuck up there by himself in the geometry while we lost because he couldn't kill himself.
Why the fuck is a Forge map like that in rotation???
EDIT: I'm watching the replay now. It happened to both teams actually, except one enemy team member did eject into the arena and was able to score while the 7 other people in the game were stuck outside the map. That shit's gots to go.
Played two games to do the sword. Commendation then never again

Yes you can! Personally, I just went into the settings and changed communication to friends/party only. So now I just never have to worry about it. I do miss callouts from randoms, but they rarely did it to begin with, so it's really not a huge deal. Plus I have good in-game sense and I generally know what the fuck is going on anyways or I can make an educated guess.

Invite only it is.
Pretty sure this is why people keep suggesting it as a solution when you and others keep having this problem.

Valhalla is not a good map, it's always been plagued with cross mapping. Sidewinder works better in modern Halo\. With the U shape you have to have some sort of map control, whether that be top mid or teleporter ridge. Valhalla and other linear box canyons all suffer from cross map shooting that doesn't require a power position, though Valhalla did improve on Blood Gulch with the hill. At any rate #BringBackASidewinder
To be fair Viking is a quality remake, it just so happens to be a remake of a flawed map.
Nokyard's new Deadlock looks great.
Yeah I've probably forgotten the amount of cross mapping there was before. Certainly felt it just now!

Major reason why Ragnarok was just too chaotic with constant cross-mapping (especially pre-H4 update, DMRs for days).
