wow
BioShock style maps with windows to see the water outside. Imagine ivory tower set under water.
MP is not working. Only local.(halo ce, halo 2 classic)
Custom games seem to be working for me!
lol why has everyone been acting like a dick to me lately?
Are there really just codes out there that unlock the game? My understanding would be there are one-time-use codes to download a separate review copy.

There is that bit of the Halo 2 campaign on Delta Halo that's set at the bottom of that big lake... would love to see a map done like that with muted blue lighting with that warbled "light scattered through water" look coming through the windows and walls.
I'm excited to see that part of the campaign remastered now...

Not long to wait now.
The Nov 4th Halo/Star Wars books will tide the time.

The ten percent coupon is part of the "mover's packet"/change of address form available at the post office that you can request. There's also a Lowe's coupon, some moving truck coupons, etc.
As for the console trade ins, the one I did was a while ago, so unfortunately I'm not sure what the current offers are. I'd imagine you may have better luck on Craigslist.
For all those people that say they prefer CoD to Halo, all you have to do is point to Customs and Forge to explain why Halo offers more diversity and longevity and fun. There is literally a custom/forge game/gametype out there for EVERYONE.
You don't even need to go into the finer aspects of gameplay this alone wins the argument as to why Halo > CoD
Yes. A thousand times yes.

My mistake, I was mainly referring to the amount of objects on screen without a dip in performance.

Jesus, I go to work and class, and come back to mayhem. I love it.
Would have to be scaled to Halo vehicle speeds and SOMEHOW fit within the Forge canvas map budget, but if even a bit of it could be made "in spirit of" that course... haat daaymm.
Just sold my Sunset code, now to download all that Spartan Assault stuff and play Killer Instinct till November 11th I guess.
It seems my copy of MCC will probably have the useless French bilingual stuff ruining the cover. I saw the Sunset Overdrive copy today, and it had it, as did pretty much every other game.
White console and controller look so good though!

Nope. I'm in an online custom game now!
Be good if we can get 4+ people for a few games!

I love how in some games you can press a button to activate something, but you're still able to move around and shoot, as long as you keep your finger on the button to activate. It's unfortunate, but not too much of a big deal.
Man.. That map <3
Sounds good, added.

i'm jelly with my black controller with d a y o n e 2 0 1 3 scarred in the middle under the home button... which I bought back in February lol
Are you from Canada?
Midship remake with rocks?
That would be lovely, water caustics and all.
Underwater Midship layout would be pretty cool too.

Hold me to it, I'll make it.

The flexibility, scale and quality of this Forge mode only pours salt on the wound of the decision to remake Coagulation. Why on earth would they waste one of the six golden tickets to next gen reincarnation on a map that a person semi-literate in forging could muster in about an hour? There're many great new features in this forge set but a speeding bullet train isn't one of them; a Terminal remake would truly have been more useful.
Hoping 60 FPS holds up on these forge maps, within reason.

We got that in 4 didn't we?
Warlock too!
That's what I said, Terminal should've been the first map and a no-brainer. I don't want to see a lego block speeding by. When warlord was announced as the last map I was so mad, I don't even understand how that map gets the remake, out of all the maps that was the worst choice. I thought Terminal would get the remake too, guess they thought it was too much work. The train, main platform, each base, parking lot, parking lot booth, vent shortcut
Microsoft really needs to fix this. I've seen some people on GAF complaining about this. They can't expect people with internet limits to download it 2 or 3 times...
Easily the best layout, eventhough the Bumpers on the Xbox One controller are weird. Being able to play all Halo games with Bumper Jumper is pretty cool.
You should also put that picture in quotes.
I thought it was live as long as you have background update enabled.
The remake choices as a whole were truly baffling, but whatever, I doubt any of us stick to H2A for long, if at all.

I finished second to last.
Who put the bumper jumper button layout? That's just a wrong way to play Halo.

Never mind, i see this is convection. Sorry.

Looks like he's at a convention. Yes, the remake of Ascension is a H2A map.
Oh, didn't know that. I didn't play Halo 4 for very long.

I really think the Forge mode looks amazing. I hope the other maps have some unique and interesting pallets. Gimme a nighttime/snow hybrid!
That map art looks amazing.

No limit here and thank goodness of that considering I have a Bandwidth Usage of 350 GB for the month of October trying to complete the MCC download while I only used 38.27 GB total in September on Xbox One. Best part? My current MCC download sits at 5% completed. If launch wasn't still two weeks out I would have given up and went retail long ago although my frustrations with it are starting to get to me...
You are good people
Heh... I do wonder about all that overlapping geometry...

I think the remade maps for H2A were chosen based on ease of remaking them and for keeping others as potential Halo 5 remakes.
Would you really want Terminal in H2A or potentially for Halo 5? Same goes for Headlong or any other map that we've been dying to play on. Best thing about this collection is that we can relive those memories, but still have hope that in another year when Halo 5 comes out, they'll have announced some remakes that would really make fans shit their pants.
Just saying, Forge City + Halo 5 would blow minds, whereas a Headlong remake in H2A would probably go unplayed because we're all excited about everything else in this package.
