If my system hadn't started acting like a bitch a few minutes into any game I play, I'd definitely pop into some H2V. I blame Crysis: Warhead. I was playing that a bunch in the "Turbo Extreme" mode on my laptop, and it probably overheated my system. I got a laptop cooler but looks like the damage was already done. Unless there is something else wrong, but I don't want to reboot my entire computer to find out.

Halo 2 really did destroy everything else. It was king for I say 3 years.

It was good to watch that ViDoc again.

"It's fun to play as the attacker, it's fun to play as the defender"

Very true, and they built it brilliantly in Halo 2. Burial Mounds, Zanzibar, Ivory Tower, Relic, Terminal, what happened to those maps in Halo 3 and Reach? They were non-existent.

Asymettrical maps that were good for both offence and defensive rounds - High Ground, Longshore, and to a less extent Ghost Town & Last Resort.

Just got back from watching I Love You Phillip Morris. Splendid movie.

So, um, yeah...about Halo...lookin' forward to the playlist updates on Tuesday. That and the new ME2 DLC.

Always loved Zanzibar, much moreso than Last Resort. At first I thought I liked the open area in the base, but in the end it wasn't the greatest idea. Most of it was unused. And Camp Froman really turned into Camp Froman. Hated that.

Also forgot about Turf, and Ghost Town closely resembles that. But when you compare the two for all gametype facets, it's not even close.

Longshore was pretty disappointing. Terminal and Relic, ugh, so good.

Heres the low down of the last twenty minutes

I still tried adjusting to my new tv, its not going to happen too much input lag
AR'd to death in classic customs so I left
hooked it up back in my room on a smaller monitor I'm used to
Went into Dubs with Trasher
We voted 2 DMRs on Unanchored
They voted 2 none of the above but our votes were on top so they switched it at last minute to Slayer Uncaged
Barely won because of Uncaged and terrible maps
Got in full party went into Objective
Played Hemmorage in a 4v4 playlist!

AHHHH I really like this game but its almost like trying to make my fuckin blood pressure blow myself up.

 

[MrBig]

Watching that ViDoc made me cringe about the fact that their focus completely shifted from all about Objective to these multi-purpouse, slayer-oriented maps that we got on disc on Reach. What happened? Shishka? Sage? CoD?

Too many disconnects so sitting here with a 10 minute ban. Hey Bungie, try to distinguish between a quit and a dropped game.

edit:
That video eased the wait, and goddamn do I miss Halo 2's maps. Especially Headlong 1 Flag...

Sorry I had to leave Customs early. I had to live blog the 3DS midnight launch at my local GameStop.

Spoiler

I was really tempted to call out a guy by name for buying Samurai Warriors Chronicles, but he was nice.

I just bought a 2-liter of Crush orange soda, so I'm set to play until the morning light. If you want to party up, just let me know.

That was pretty ballsy to charge the Wraith as the last man standing.

Halo 2 Vidoc

That Vidoc brings back great memories- What a great, revolutionary game. It literally changed the way games are played now /Halo 2 Rant]

Anyway- Hey Franky or anyone else that can help- What is this map found in that Vidoc. It looks so familiar but its untextured and I can't tell, it's bothering me now. It's found at 3:32 in the Halo 2 Vidoc- Help me Pleeazz

It looks like a beta version of Foundation maybe but who knows.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

I thought it was like an early Headlong.

 

[Lazslo]

I thought it was like a early Headlong.

Yeah it does look like a very early version of Headlong without all the awesome. Good call J-Wow

 

[Striker]

I thought it was like a early Headlong.

With it being 1-CTF, that makes sense. The ramp section reminded me of the parts in Terminal's base myself. Headlong's interior got a makeover.

I kept an eye on xXSAVIORS0ULXx's credit gain today. He earned almost 100,000 cR.

If he continues at that rate, he will hit Inheritor in 20 days.

Ughh now that I remember H3... I'm 100% satisfied with the fact vehicles die easier in Reach. Fucking FOURTY THREE warthog kills. Thats all that needs to be said you can't kill vehicles in Halo 3! the weapons don't do anything to them...its basically pointless to shoot at them and they can just sit from afar and rape all game, especially if the one vehicle stopping weapon was taken.

In conclusion fuck Shishka for ruining most of the H3 playlists, fuck NinjaOnFire for ruining Reachs playlists.

Remake Halo 3 with hitscan no spread BR and optimized netcode and 60fps and put me in playlist management.

I'm honestly sick to my stomach after tonights Halo gaming. Everyone else was just talking shit about how Bungie doesn't know what they are doing the entire team anyways.

 

[Deputy Moonman]

Always loved Zanzibar, much moreso than Last Resort.

Dude, BTB 1 Flag and Assault on Zanzibar were so much fun. Mass chaos, but so good. Headlong dominated. I liked how a lot of the maps in Halo 2 were designed almost specifically for the objective based game. Relic, Terminal, Zanzibar, Headlong, and Burial Mounds come to mind. And yet, even the slayer maps handled the flag and assault games really well. Lockout, Ivory Tower, Sanctuary, Colossus, Ascension, Beaver Creek, Elongation, Midship, and Turf, were equally fun. Oops, forgot Warlock. I loved that map.

It seems like a lot of that Objective focus has been lost. Team Objective was my favorite in Halo2. Since then, I haven't enjoyed Objective nearly as much.

Halo 2 had amazing asymmetric maps in both Team Skirmish AND Big Team Battle. Why its been so ignored in Halo 3 and Reach saddens me. That's why I often feel it seems like there were two different teams in charge. :\

You can name every Halo 2 map sans two (Backwash and Gemini) and you'll name at least ONE skirmish gametype that played fantastic there. You cannot do that for any other Halo game. Turf-3 Plots. Sanctuary-2 flag. Zanzibar-1 flag. Burial Mounds-1 bomb. Colossus-2 flag. Beaver Creek-2 flag. Elongation-Neutral Bomb. Relic-1 flag. Terminal-1 bomb. Midship-Neutral Bomb. Shit can go on forever.

Ughh now that I remember H3... I'm 100% satisfied with the fact vehicles die easier in Reach. Fucking FOURTY THREE warthog kills

Vehicle-infantry combat perfect yo.

Guessing they held onto the Spartan Laser, and killed your team's hog instantly if you were able to hop in it.

Funny you mention that, me and my friend popped in Halo 3 today to play. Unfortunately we kept getting booted back to the menu, we figured cause the maps wouldn't load. We lost ranks in the progress. Not cool! Then we went back and dominated on Reach.

[edit] Oh wow, didn't even know GAF had setup H3 customs.\

Nah, we didn't run any customs. Around nine of us randomly decided to get on though and play a few matchmaking games.
