SECOND PAGE!
Not if you're in the 100ppp master race.
In both realms of posting too. Not bad.

I don't think this one thread will take us through November, but if so, I'm ready.

Hello Valhalla remake.

So, will the remake map be a "straight remake", or it will see some adjustments or changes to fit Halo 4 better? I know it wont be a straight port, but I am curious how many changes we will see.

Doesn't this pretty much confirm no Valhalla?
Yeah, good games.

He said most of those maps would be too cramped - Pit, Lockout, etc. He didn't say all of them. Gulch and Valhalla in particular would be big enough, and we can rule out Gulch for sure.
Valhalla wouldn't be that cramped, would it?
Heh - we think alike.

Sprinting is not a problem in Sandtrap 2.0

Didn't we have a discussion earlier today about how Valhalla would suck with a 3x zoom DMR?
I hope 343 addressed that.
Edit: Also, what Dax said.

You know it's going to be Valhalla just because you don't want it to be.
I don't want it to be Valhalla either. Neither does Ghaleon.
So it's going to be Valhalla on that basis alone.
Yo, remake Sidewinder.
Not to worry. You can dodge bullets now with a Kinect voice command.

But couldn't Valhalla remake be adjusted to accommodate 3x scope on the DMR? Sprinting would help compensate for the larger size, same with AAs. With some tweaks I really could see Valhalla working as a remake, even if it means seeing some changes overall.

Just adjust the scaling to make every map 3x as large to handle the DMR and sprint. Done!

Wow sandtrap? Hells yes.
I am now very excited. BTB has been crap in Reach. I loved santrap. The only thing I would have liked more is Waterworks... although
Mammoths? Please PLEASE have them on this map. I loved having the elephants on sandtrap. Those were awesome and hilarious.

I really see light rifle/DMR breaking the shit out of Valhalla.

Valhalla size worked thanks to bullet spread and the H3'S BR's range. A x3 scope DMR with no spread will fundamentally change how the map flows and plays, and not for the better.
Congrats winners.
Internet Explorer? Windows XP?
Throw some more rocks in there and call it a day.

EDIT: Beaten bad.
I guess I'll say wow at Tashi and Cyren for beating out Woorloog
That's the real winner.

I'm just wondering what they will use in place of the choppers in Sandtrap 2.0.
I really don't see DMR's being as big of a problem on Valhalla as most of you are making it out to be.
Blood Gulch had literally no cover for the entire field part of the map. Valhalla has multiple rocks/side entrants/man cannons/etc. to break up sight lines. Add in the fact that you don't get knocked out of scope, and it will make it much easier to fight back from your base. Not to mention this isn't Reach, your Spartan doesn't move like a snail and has no hops.
Add in the fact that the laser will probably still be at the top of the hill, forcing players out of their bases if they hope to have any kind of vehicle action.
I think it'll play fine. Couldn't be any worse than Reach BTB, that's for sure.
Did past Juices take that pic in 1995 & email it to future Juices?
