PC only please. Console RTS is pretty much instafail.

I thought Halo Wars was great.

 

[Computron]

If I want to play the new maps, can I play other playlists?

Never forget.

 

[Released]

KotH on Wreckage is screen lag city. Seems like it dips below 10fps regularly.

 

[Havok]

If I want to play the new maps, can I play other playlists?

Yes.

The following Crimson maps will be added into these existing playlists:
• Infinity Slayer – Harvest
• Big Team Infinity Slayer – Wreckage and Shatter
• Dominion – Shatter
• Capture the Flag – Harvest and Wreckage
• SWAT – Harvest
• Team Slayer Pro – Harvest

Crimson Map Pack Glitch, go live under a rock already...

 

[zap]

Yeah, yeah, I know. Well Halo 4 was my last Limited Edition halo game unless something changes.

 

[Der Flatulator]

I'd play a Halo Tactics.

What ever happened to Warhouse, it got so much darker and more bland...

Already? Seriously?! :/

 

[Computron]

Yes.

No Harvest in BTB.

WHAT.

 

[kylej]

you can just... walk into the rock? and you clip through?

does anyone involved with halo 4 actually play this game?

 

[DeadNames]

What ever happened to Warhouse, it got so much darker and more bland...

My thoughts exactly.

And the spartans look so much more... bright

 

[Satchel]

How do you guys think they'll recompense people who spent 2000 MS Points on the Map Pass? They basically spent 2000 points on something that costs everyone else 1600.

nothing. Already been back and forth on twitter. They're burying their heads in the sand on it.

 

[Computron]

I am doing this right now, taunting a turret user.

There's a glitch/error on Wreckage on one of the rocks where you just jump through it also.

 

[Computron]

You actually have to crouch to get in as I have just tested, and you can't shoot either way.

These holes are easy to miss, so this type of thing is easily forgivable. It will likely be patched within a week, which is more than could be said for previous halo games.

I don't really have an issue that glitches happen but let us start the countdown until a fix is released...day 1 down, on day 2 now

Yeah, they are easy to miss. But they should also be easy to fix. Hopefully we get a quick fix.

Nah they outsource that too.

Probably going to get fixed next Monday when they have their weekly update.

 

[BlueScrote]

More COD VS Halo stuff.

SMGs are/were overpowered in Blackops 2. Vonderhaar said "We couldn't pay people to play them in testing, online we can't stop people from using them. They were overpowered, so they are getting tweaked."


Developers admitting their tests flawed and making adjustments to weapons? What is this?!? INSANITY.

P.S. Nerf boltshot.

Looks like I better start using SMGs until they fix them.

 

[Computron]

Sweet, I am actually getting the new maps in BTB! (First try too)

Now if only Harvest was a choice, since that is what I wanted to play since I first saw the maps.

Seriously, what is that about?

 

[Tawpgun]

Damn, if its as easy as WALKING into a rock a tester should have been able to catch that, easy.

 

[malfcn]

I don't think it is a terribly bad thing with the free glitch.

It will increase users into the map pools. And the $10 free thing is right and wrong. If you were going to have Map Pass the loss is really $5. Still crappy though.

Google "343 playtesting"

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

Nah they outsource that too.

To their fan base.

 

[minasodaboy]

Hey free maps! Thanks 343!

Spoiler

i feel REALLY bad for whoever screwed that up. that must be costing MS a TON, ok a decent amount of money in lost sales

 

[Computron]

Wreckage BTB is giving me that Burial Mounds vibe, except the layout seems better.

 

[kylej]

Google "343 playtesting"

how can you google something that doesn't exist

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

Google "343 playtesting"

"Today all of you will be testing Halo 4."

Boom

 

[Crazyorloco]

After playing a few games on each of the maps... I have to say that I kinda like them. I usually stick to CTF and BTB playlists anyway. Harvest is soo boring to look at though - Doesn't seem like Halo at all.

I thought Harvest was pretty ugly. It looks like a map we would see on halo Reach. But the map itself isn't so bad. I like the design. I just gotta get use to it.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

hur hur hur.

 

[dalVlatko]

I wouldn't be surprised if the season pass money makes up for it

I wonder how many people bought the season pass vs how many people bought 3 map packs in Halo 3/Reach

 

[Computron]

WOW. Wreckage is a surprisingly good BTB map. The medium sight-lines keep the DMR somewhat in check. The center hill and the grav lifts, while fun, have me concerned. The vehicles seem more useful as well.

I might play this game more now.

 

[Nowise10]

Damn, if its as easy as WALKING into a rock a tester should have been able to catch that, easy.

You could say that with like 90% of most glitches.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

No, really, google 343 playtesting.

I like the art style on that Adrift better than the final one.

 

[DeadNames]

I like everything about that older game more than the final one.

RIP BR slayer

 

[kittens]

I can't believe I missed out on those free maps. I would have played them tens of times, man.

 

[Omni]

Why the hell was I just put into a CTF game where it was a party of 5 up against... me? Well there was one other guy on my team, but he quit as soon as I joined. The score was 4-0.

poo

Are they not still up? Have you tried going back to the dash and then into the game again? That seemed to work for some people. I know people getting the maps free still.

Ohohoohohoh if you think THAT was bad...


Me and an AFK vs to mantises, banshees, a metric fuckton of OP power weapons and 8 players on Ragnarok.

Sometimes I don't even know.

 

[Ramirez]

Week 3 matchups are up for the league, sorry for the delay.

...

I think I've found a new favourite. Oddball on Wreckage is pretty damn awesome, IMO

 

[DeadNames]

Mixed reviews about these maps...

So guys, Isolation or Complex?

I'm going with Isolation.

We are the testers, man.
