I wonder if they are aware that some of the maps they will be playing on were built by regulars here.

[edit] Want me to rename Avalanche to GafAlanche for the games?

That's why the exposure thing was especially funny. You know those BTB maps you play in MM? Yeah 1 was made by a Gaffer.

2. Eagle Square was made by Shifty Time, who is Shiftykiwi on gaf.

Whenever I have dabbled in forge, I'll notice that sometimes an object will illuminate properly while an object right next to it won't. Or sometimes they flicker between lighted states. I remember being really frustrated with that.

How do you get around that issue?

What Karl later said, nail on head.

Any interest from anyone here?

Sure, let's play avalanche, highlands, relic, containment and rats nest.

Just uh... Let's figure out what team we are gunna be beforehand...

ifyouknowwhatimean.secretrocketlaunchers

My long sightlines really come close to the object limit, but oddly enough those aren't the trouble spots. Right now it's areas that use non-shadow/light-rendered blocks with dynamic lighting from the opposite side(if I'm lighting a floor, the lights are below the floor and it illuminates the floor properly... well pre patch anyways). It was a weird, but effective workaround when natural lighting on blocks was insanely dark when obscured by a terrain piece.

Interesting, I will have to take a look at some of my maps with interior spaces (rats nest particularly) lighting is already fickle on that map.

I wonder if they are aware that some of the maps they will be playing on were built by regulars here.

[edit] Want me to rename Avalanche to GafAlanche for the games?

I'll redo all mine for all that glorious exposure

GafAlanche, Gafs Nest, Gaflands, Gafblainment, Gafshketball, Gafelic.

 

[Feel the Swift]

Even with the finals giveaway packs I still have at least 70+ gold packs left. Rip

Edit: Are the items in loot crates any good?

Yeah, the first two have been pretty great.

GAFalanche is an excellent new name for the map. Got any budget for a GAF logo in there?

 

[link1201]

May just might the bullet on this one then.

 

[ZeezbruhTV]

Firefight is actually enjoyable without god level AI.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Okay cool, I'll message them saying there is interest.

Get ready for dem exposures booooyyyys.

 

[op_ivy]

I was going to make a joke post volunteering the worst plays, but figured that would be mean, but funny enough that I'm telling you about it.

Depending on when it might be fun, so count me in(-ish).

 

[Madness]

Let's just get all the Onyx players we have go against them. ExWife and whatnot. I wonder if someone like Tashi would take part. Don't think Ram plays anymore.

I was Onyx once. Put me in, coach.

I'm Platinum, I can take 'em. Right chief? Right?

Speaking of BTB maps i am updating Deadlock with a focus on the Customs Community.

I am aware the last iteration was not well received. Does HaloGAF have any suggestions for weapon/vehicle alterations?

My plan is to have different power weapon and vehicle layouts for Slayer, CTF, and Strongholds.

 

[UncleMeat]

Go get 'em, boys!

And let us know when this matchup takes place so I can watch their stream and give you that exposure you so richly deserve.

I just liked the lighting in the second iteration more.

No air vehicles in Strongholds obviously, it's fine for CTF/Slayer.

 

[mo60]

Yep it is. Also, I do hope 343i actually makes it so the banshee bosses on some of the later rounds on some of the maps like Prospect and Escape from Arc don't escape from the map or get stuck in map geometry.

Also, I would join you guys if you play against that team but I suck really hard at BTB.

Yes, i removed the Wasp for Strongholds, and exchanged the Mongoose for a Gungoose in Slayer. Changed the Laser to Berserker's Claw for games with the Wasp present.

Just make sure we end up with our exact counterparts on the other team, that way we'll know their plays. I'd have a super fun time watching one of their guys grab camo and get run the fuck over by a friendly ghost over and over and over again. /kappa

 

[Triscuitable]

Spartan Charge is the only thing gross in Halo 5 regarding movement and mechanics. I love everything else.

Also fuck BR starts in BTB.

I honestly don't hate anything about Halo 5's movement outside of Spartan Charge, but people were talking about what they'd change to differentiate the feel of Halo 5 from Halo 6, so I added my two cents.

Seriously though, Spartan Charging is a cancer, and when Halo 6 removes it, I won't be sad that it's gone.

 

[Karl2177]

This will probably end up about as well as the Reach hump day.

I agree with this. Its only fun in custom games against friends tbh. In ranked, i hate it. Its the only thing i dislike about halo5s "movements". Ground pound also feels kinda useless but it doesnt bother me as much.

 

[Akai__]

WyvernZu is working on an Invasion set, so people can use it and actually make Invasion maps.

Pretty awesome.

Just outta curiosity...from a person who is surrounded by Halo 5 constantly, what gametype/playlist holds your attention the most?

Slayer, SWAT, Super Fiesta right now. And grinding on WZ on an alt account.

I'd be interested in watching as well.

Probably because I'm an ass. I like Forgehub though.

Why would you grind on an alt account? Needing REQs in WZ makes an alt account harder to use.

The dude loves SWAT. There is no logic to be had here, bruh.

You Lootcrate buyers are in for some in game swag next time around

gaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh those skins are so nice, such a shame I'll never get to have them. There's so few AR skins I actually like, it sucks that the best one is locked away like this. ;_;
