It's alright, I wasn't sure if there were any ones anyway. Maybe in a couple hours I'll max out the budget on Forge Island and try playing split-screen. The map doesn't have that much going on in the background, so I'd take a guess that it might have a moderate framerate.

Sweet, I'll boot up 4 in a minute and try it. Do you guys want me to record it with my terribad capture card?

We all tend to get passionate about things we love or don't love, and I'm certainly no exception. However, it definitely is important to try and maintain that level of respect and courtesy both in real life and online.
The community is in their right to be upset or frustrated, but we should all strive to communicate our discrepancies in ways that will help both the company and the individual morale of its employees. Nobody wants to read negative or harsh words about something they invested time and work into; it's very disheartening and discouraging to 343. But it's also discouraging to us as players and members of this community when we are represented in the way that we were at GDC.
We all need to communicate openly, express our needs in appropriate manners and work together to achieve our goal. They need to make a successful game and we need to have fun for many years. Let us not sacrifice either one.

I dreaded that map but it's interesting how it you've made it look in Forge Island. I'm curious to see how Sidwinder would turn out.
lol
Forge Island as a forced download though would require a title update. Those things are super costly for 343 to do and I don't think it'll be worth it from a cost/benefit point.
At best would be prompts much like the DLC playlists that you require this map to play etc. Though I'm pretty sure the majority still playing would take advantage of a free space.
I wonder what the download numbers for forge island are.

That's like the SyFy movie adaptation of Paradiso
Remember that Forge Island is also promoted by showing up in the map list for custom games even if you don't own the map.
I just almost spit my water everywhere. Good stuff.

Here, recorded 2 minutes of Split Screen on Super Cragmire.

Not sure if I did it right but the Framerate is actually decent.

Wasn't Cragmire a Heavies version of Spire?
Speaking of Spire, is it possible to remake it on Forge Island?

Those Rockets would've hit you in Halo 2.
Well this is Halo2x2 so the aim assist has been halved. Speaking of magnetism, vehicle lock ons in Halo 2 were ridiculously stupid.

Picture isn't working for me, I have a morbid curiosity to see this.
I don't think its that surprising. Sure the area is huge but its uncomplicated, empty space. Even the textures are low res by forge world standards.
Oh dear.

Here's my video, it's in terrible quality because I don't have a good capture card. Also, I didn't move around with my second controller because it's a FightPad.

I can understand the predicament, it's not fun to die a lot. But you can't say you wish you played against worse players. You have to understand why you are dying so much, what makes the other people kill you. The action is so fast at times, and it's hard to know who looks like what, I doubt anyone actually hunted him down.
Is this a perfect example of why ranks/trueskill matters? I wonder what mode he played in.
This quote confuses me:
"I'm obviously not a threat to you, why hunt me down?"
It seems like he's never played Halo or an FPS before or something. Of course I'm going to kill the guy looking at a skybox or doing something dumb, because it's a kill. It's not about honor or any of that jazz.

Okay guys, let's not kill people in Matchmaking anymore. We should stare at the skybox instead, k?
Watch it turn out to be Action Sack or Grifball

I like Phillies 24 7 answer. In that thread.
Add a fucking ranking system to this game. What are you doing 343?!

GreenScreen is pretty cool. Made this is 5 minutes.
It's so disorienting when he steps off the green screen, it's pretty rad that they added it though. What classification is the green screen listed as in the forge menu?

Structure, Forge Island
Be careful, though. It's extremely disorienting with multiple of them.
Sprint can possibly benefit the game if you can shoot while sprinting and if it increases your strafe speed. This would obviously involve chucking out the sprinting animation. Think of it as a temporary speed boost.
I've played an FPS that uses this kind of sprint and it makes firefights very interesting due to all the quick strafing going on. Nothing pisses me off more than a COD style sprint where you have to put your gun down to run.

The game is still plagued with more problems than the Matrix sequels though. Ranks will make us rage just that extra.

Most gruesome injury in a basketball game I have ever seen just occurred. TIB FIB snap on a Louisville player. Mother of god.
I've seen Lattimore, McGahee, and Sid Vicious's injuries live and this affected me way worse

Would you mind if I asked what you explicitly hate about the game OddOne? Just curious is all.
That was awful. I feel so bad for the kid.

They should just program that "Forge Island is now out!" message to pop up every fucking time until they download it.
Right? Lattimore was way over his league at S.Carolina. He was an NFL like player in college. I'm sure someone will choose him but I just hope we see him have a good amount of play time if he's able.

When he picked his leg up my heart sank. Just terrible.
My problems? Loadout system as whole. I personally call it Armor Lock 2.0.
For the rest of the problems, well that is mostly the loadouts systems fault. So, can't really fault them.

Don't even get me started on how long it takes you to start shooting again.. Going from animations like throwing grenades to shooting need to be faster. For this reason much of Halo 3 felt like playing in molasses.
Holy shit, christ.
That looks awesome but painful.

That's what my Easter was missing, bones popping out of skin. Thank you.
AR's, jetpacks and stickys on Haven not your cup of tea? Lol.
I understand, it's the same for me. I for one hate the randomness added to the games. Global ordnance, personal ordnance etc. Then it's the loadouts, armor abilities and perks they've added. Things that I don't like are JiP, instant respawn, sprint etc.
A huge part of the game was starting equally and the map determined how the match would be played. Now everyone just picks whatever weapons they want, movement is down, close quarters combat is down etc.
