That's the ticket, cory021. And every time I see your avatar, I have to listen to "Everlong."

During the second boss wave, I'm down on the right hand side, sniping Grunts as they crest over the hill. The Ranger Elite on the right in this shot is heading toward me, but a box is in his way.
My sniper shot ricochets off a crate and hits him just as he jumps over it.
Result: dude got some serious air.
So much air that he launches himself straight out of the map and over to where we toast Wraiths on the ONI campaign mission. Which caused me no small amount of confusion when he was the last enemy left in the round.
Video here. The bellow he lets out on the way over had me laughing, hard.
GD seems like a dirty job to me. Pretty much all they did was define an object as a biped and put it on the Human side with a high target priority. If it was fully fleshed out and the AI reacted to it properly, and maps were actually built with it in mind, it could have been good.cory021 said:Wait, so how the Elite die?
Anyways, what's your guy's opinion on Generator Defense? I think it's a lot more fun than standard Firefight. Fighting against the Covenant while at the same time trying to defend 3 generators is way more exciting than the standard slayer-firefight (IMO, of course).
The Elite just despawned after a couple minutes, right when I was about to get a bead on him.cory021 said:Wait, so how the Elite die?

The shout-out he makes is quite hilarious. You were a little slow to suicide and grab the jetpack though!
Another thing that is really bad about generator defense is the fact that there is no balance between how the ai behaves when choosing who/what they attack. When the generators are locked, they only attack you. When the generators aren't locked, they only attack the generators. That is the aspect that really makes me hate generator defense.GhaleonEB said:The Elite just despawned after a couple minutes, right when I was about to get a bead on him.
Generator Defense is a nice change of pace, but it highlights the limitations that are built into Firefight. Namely:
1) Cannot place the generators in better locations.
2) Cannot configure the generator traits: health, how long they lock, how long the cool down is.
3) Firefight maps were not designed for Firefight, and it really, REALLY shows in Generator Defense.
It's a concept I really wish was built out a bit more. I like it (and Crashsite in Score Attack) because it's the only game type where the enemy does not hold back, but rather swarms to the targets. It makes for a much harder, hectic and more interesting game than the default Firefight.
Naturally, no one ever votes for it, and when they do, they don't know how to play it. (Except for that one game on Unearthed, holy shit.)

‎20th Anniversary ViDoc is now set for 8/2. Last rough cut I saw was 30 minutes. So, really it's like several pieces all rolled into one legendary half hour.

My sentiments exactly. Let us do your job for you bungie, let us play with the SDKwwm0nkey said:Halo 1 - Great maps

And the WIP that hopefully I can finally upgrade/finish later this year.

I'm asking the day off of work for 7/7. I might spend today sharpening my skills.
Is the playlist 4v4?
And when is the official thread going up?
