Good article. Thanks for the link.

He also says they've got a big surprise for the 10th anniversary, among other surprises.

I have yet to even play on Uncaged... whats the difference?Hitmonchan107 said:/facepalm
Sweet, delicious Uncaged. ;^)
There's more ways up. There are still god awful spawns, and blue team still has a major advantage off spawn to get weapons.neoism said:I have yet to even play on Uncaged... whats the difference?

xxxstylzxxx said:The map just has zero flow to it among other things so I seriously doubt that the changes will make that much of a difference. I just hope they added more soft kill zones to negate some of the abusive jetpacking to areas that are other wise inaccessible to everyone else.

Popeck said:What video exactly?
Yes please. MLG, Classic Slayer, Slayer Pro gametypes on good maps with even teams. Can we have a customs like this one day? Or at least make that the majority of the games and we can do the crazy shit after we're bored of it?Letters said:Maybe when halogaf is over the phase where they keep using customs as an opportunity to test all kinds of crap, and just play really solid stuff one after another.
:lolvhfive said:thanks... I think
I should be around next week for customs.

<3 Delta HaloBlue Ninja said:Oh god, online co-op. Getting out of Delta Halo. Throw in a Theater mode, and you have my wallet.
Sounds like a plan, actually. Thanks.KevinRo said:Try re-creating some of your favorite maps from other games. Even single player scenarios from different games sometimes might fit well caged off.
Then while you are doing that maybe you'll get an idea and work off of that.
My statement could have been clearer, but then again, you also could have done a better job reading it. "This community", in context, did not refer to HaloGAF, but to the community of rank-obsessed players.bobs99 ... said:You clearly dont know this community to well then. The guys round here range from the whole spectrum when it comes to skill. If you really think the lack of bragging rights is the reason the Arena is underpopulated your crazy. There are plenty of posts detailing why the Arena is a poor substitute for the old Ranking system, and many of those posts are made by the exact same people who are not rank obsessed at all.
The majority of Halo players didnt make it to 50, that didn't stop ranked from being so popular in the past. The fact that The Arena has serious flaws is what makes it so unpopular on Reach.

In the meantime, here's some purdy pictures.

Beautiful stuff. Definitely the most sweeping and fully realized art direction in the series.
I think it will happen this year. The launch of the Waypoint player Service Record and stuff like the Challenges begins to lay down the path, I think. Fall seems about right, given how much there is to build and transition.Hey You said:Its surprising how fast Bungie is leaving Halo. I thought Bungie would be making DLC and such for at least a year, not a couple of months.
When do you guys think 343i will take over completely (Community Content,Playlist Updates etc?)
My guess would be until August-September.

I've read a lot of posts criticizing Arena, and most of them advocate a 1-50 ranking system. Knowing the inherent problems of such a system, is it not safe to assume that its proponents are unreasonably obsessed with the idea of having a visible skill-influenced rank next to their gamertags?

Yeah I really hope I'm interested.... I want to continue to support Bungle... love'em <3Dani said:The main reason why I am happy to Bungie away from Halo is because they got their best talent cooking away at an original project and have done so for the past few years. The last time Bungie best made something original we got Halo and here we ten years later.
The best thing to come out of the situation is the fact that we have Halo in capable hands we a great future for the franchise and we have a completely new franchise to explore from Bungie. It's the best of both worlds.
Just imagine in a few years time we'll have a new Halo AND a new Bungie game side by side. I can't think of anything better.

Really hope lighting strikes twice for them. Still disappointed in the Activision partnership though...
Kuroyume said:Evade is the worst. I hate it so much. Is it me or did few of the playlists have evade when the game launched? It's like they added it more later on. So annoying.
