This new "title" theme they've been using in the recent videos (not the "main theme" that Halo 4 used in the original media blowout vidoc) would be a pretty good "one minute remaining" track if it got abridged, much more fitting for some matches than the ambient synthsphere percussion thing they used in those MLG matches. Maybe we'll get to choose from multiple tracks?

Someone should make Haven in Halo 3's forge so we can run customs on it
someone did. not sure if its complete yet, but looked killer.
EDIT: nm, missed "halo 3's forge"
You missed it by about 17 hours. I think some folks are running it tonight though.
Yes, but the core gameplay is so much more fun than Reach, the vehicles, the weapons, and even the maps. It's sad.
I agree, especially about the maps.
While AR rush + melee is still in Halo 3 and annoying, Halo 3 feels more like a 'gun game' to me than Reach usually does with its massively overpowered grenades and sprint+melee.
This is what I keep hearing about Halo 4 (from the pros) as well, sprint doesn't look nearly as fast as it is in Reach, not to mention your precision weapon isn't gimped by bloom, and has stopping power.

I just got clowed by the AR Rush on Last Resort. Why the fuck is that shit so strong? Are my BR shots even doing anything?

I'm fairly certain that I spent more time forging in Halo 3 than actually playing. One of the few things Reach got right was the ability to merge objects without having to resort to a physics glitch.
Yea its dumb, too strong.
It might not have the magnetism of the Reach one, but if you can hold your crosshair on anyone at all, it kills.
At mid-close range, it kills faster than 4sk BR (since the BR is rarely 4sk in 3 trolololol). Now that I think about it, this is probably what we will be seeing in 4, haha. Scary. Hopefully they will bring the effective range in a bit!
At least the AR in 4 sounds good; sounds like a popgun in 3.
Well, Halo 3's Forge was bad. I could poop out a better editor than that (I've spent a lot of time working on video game editors, especially ones where you place objects, edit properties and sculpt terrain).

It's funny how play styles color perception of weapons... I absolutely NEVER worried about an AR rush in H3, and typically don't find much of an issue with sprint+melee in Reach. Doesn't discount the fact that several bullets from an AR and a melee would kill... but man, I just never found it an issue.
But I was a pretty passive player in H3 and typically tried not to get in melee range unless it was on my terms... some of that still sticks.

It was pretty bad, but some really good stuff came out it despite the obstacles. I had a blast working with some of the MLG forge guys during the unofficial 1v1 competitions in H3.
I generally don't worry about it either, but sometimes I tend to get caught a bit too close to someone with an AR and even if I manage to land all my shots with a BR, I'll still lose. This could be solved by better situational awareness

Well the AR is meant for close range, what do you expect getting in close with a mid range weapon?I generally don't worry about it either, but sometimes I tend to get caught a bit too close to someone with an AR and even if I manage to land all my shots with a BR, I'll still lose. This could be solved by better situational awareness
MLG.
Yeah, Halo 3 MLG with like 2 other people on the planet.
It is what I expect, but I don't have to like dying
Halo 3 MLG settings are great, BR is pretty reliably 4sk in it.

Nathan Fillion doing anything is awesome.

That's exactly what it was intended to be, a map editor and a (light) map creation tool. What it isn't is an advanced terrain editor or map creator.

Not according to Bungie.
Only one question: do you like Armor Lock?

Should be .gif'd.
Who? Everyone I've seen post on here says they'd prefer zero-bloom, but there is some mysterious group of players that everyone thinks we need to cater to and they apparently love bloom. Who on here prefers bloom over no-bloom? Speak up, damn you!
Narrows remake confirmed.

Go into forge and move some spawns and weapons around, throw some boxes in there too. Guess what, you just edited the map. At the minimum, and by definition, forge is a map editor.
fuck that shit
good luck... are you a fan of any particular HaloGAF-er? GAF-ers need more pets. Makes them less salty.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
Not really I guess, but the nuclear grenades and derp power weapons don't help promote DMR duels.
You pass the test, now we won't KILL YOU.
You got your Alan Tudyk in my Nathan Fillion!
I, for one, prefer 85% bloom to zero bloom.
I don't think my opinion is any more relevant than yours, though - monsterfracas is organizing this thing. If you don't like his rules, don't play. ::shrug::
Heh - I know, I was just saddened by the fact that the two posters above me ignored Tudyk.
