The grey and brown aesthetics on all the maps are getting on my nerves. Is there any aspect to this game besides shields and jumping they didn't tailor for the Duty kids?

The skeptic in me thinks that the December maps could probably already be done by now and that they are simply being held back like mythic maps where...
Awesome that we will have roughly 20 maps including forge environments within 6 months though - wonder if they will throw a halo 2 anniversary remake pack in in 2014 to bring the map count even higher

Theater doesn't bother me too much, but after a couple of plays and some co-op, Scoring is one of the main draws for me to go back to Campaign.

Covenant+UNSC map?
I have no idea what I'm even looking at in this picture. Is that object on the right close to the foreground or is it in the distance? Almost everything is in focus, which makes the picture really hard to make out.

I'm sorry, you're post is not filled with the requisite vitriol for me to pile on to. Moar personal insults directed toward 343, please.

Well, all my worries about the human maps' architecture being too similar are now allayed. The DLC maps look varied and beautiful.
I don't know, man. I just don't know.
Obviously it's just concept art, but I hope it's not just a human map with a bunch of structures around the perimeter for the sake of showing this "clash of civilizations." A true mix of playable Covie/Forerunner/Human space could be amazing.

Oh noes. My greatest weakness - concept art.
All is forgiven. That art is eye-poppingly lovely. So good.

MP or SP?
Holy Shit! Those look awesome can't wait.

I really hope 343 resets all of the ranks prior to release...though, I guess it doesn't matter because these guys aren't playing legit copies of the game more than likely.
Not being able to knock a sniper out of scope seems like such a colossal mistake on their part...

none of those look all that small or competitive.

WTF at all those animal emblems for teams!

Wow that art looks incredible. Hopefully the end result is equally impressive.
How can you tell though? Especially competitiveness?

Man, Ragnarock looks fantastic. The Saw looks decently balanced too. He couldn't hit much from any distance.
EDIT: Looks like Infinity Slayer with NO armor abilities...
Yeah the map layouts in the concept art clearly showed that.

DMR is a beast, takes people out long range with ease.
The saw is like an on host SMG from Halo 3. With a bit more range and power.

Beasting with the DMR on there.
Concept art looks really good.
Beware there's someone spoiling things in that stream chat. I got caught off guard, long day. Damn
I turned it off right away.

while the concept art looks good, those maps might be really small. look at haven and adrift concept art:

Haha, some dude on the stream is SR70.
BR FOR LIFE!
Told you.
Fixed.
Edit: And what the hell was with that one green player? He jumped like 10 meters in the air?!

They were playing Ragnarock. Not exactly a BR map. I see it being more useful on maps like Adrift. Tight corners, medium sight-lines.
So what/where is prestige 2? The rankings stop at 70 unless you choose a different specialization right? You never reset to 0 correct?

So BSAngel says that the LE Map Pack doesn't come with the extra helmets.
Nelson says that the LE comes with the same goodies as the standalone.
People need to get their shit together.
However, I trust BSAngel more than Nelson. She's straight from 343i and the press release from Nelson already has one large mistake in it (the console doesn't have the map pass).
Apparently Ellis is paying attention. Someone tweet him about it since he seems to be on the ball and 343 as a company doesn't really seem to care about clarifying.

Oh, multiple dudes are SR70. Must be the highest they can get with only two prestiges available and no preorder bonus for pirating.
amen to that

Wait so the LE now DOES come with the helmets and skins, or still not?
