CA's output has been pretty poor since... reach? I'd rather they setup a in house team who understand what made maps like Midship and Lockout so good.

He's going to turn Metroid Prime 4: Baby Harder With a Revengeance into CoD?

I literally will if you're serious
Then he's working on Halo 2? Sounds good to me
yeah probably the Steam ports. also Tawpgun there will be 100 streams of the game on Twitch the day it releases.
From Lead Environment Artist to Lead MP designer? I understand the leadership skill required. But from artist to multiplayer designer?
Just finding that odd, though perhaps this stuff is not uncommon in video game industry? I reckon people pick up more skills than just their specialty.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
At some studios the environment artists also act as level designers. More common than you think.
Ah. Makes sense.
And if one is a level designer, understanding MP design is required. Combine with leadership skill required to be Environmental Lead... Yeah, makes sense.
Nah I meant Anniversary.

What studios sometimes have random video game forum posters also act as MP directors?

Check your PMs.
Nah I don't do that. I gotta play a game, not watch it.
You're no random. You're juices and you're special.

Just took a look at it.
Its just a picture of 343 celebrating popping champagne. Up on their "mainstage" screen is a browser looking at 6th place Live weekly activity that just came out.
Funny story I was listening to sports radio today on my way to work and some dude who made a call said "wallowing in mediocrity" and I laughed.

Redacted, moved to Halo 4 OT.

State of Decay is pretty awesome. Check it out.
Downloaded the trial, will try it out tomorrow. Looks really good, may buy it after trying it.
Combat was too clunky for me when I played it at PAX.
But reading the waypoint post, it said he was responsible for Haven, probably the best launch map that came with Halo 4, so it's kind of a loss for 343.
I know people given Josh, Kevin and others a hard time, but judging by their LinkedIn and other sources, it seems like they are some of the more talent people at the studio with experience that goes back to the 90's.
I've always said someone like a Lorraine McLees, John Howard or Marcus Lehto should be running a company like 343, not corporate MS workers.

Here's a random thought:
I was just thinking about Plywood's post earlier about a F2P Halo, and I think that would be a great idea... If executed correctly.
Just copy/paste Halo 2 multiplayer, but only with maps (from any Halo game) suited for 4v4 slayer and objective gametypes.. and BAM! You got yourself a great F2P game.

I've talked to some guys where this is more or less their process, and I always think it's interesting. If you get an amazing designer you can always feel his touch in every level - like the signature feature of a fantastic series of paintings.
Hopefully he's going back to Retro to work on the next Metroid.
Prime had brilliant level design, but I didn't really feel like he transitioned over to MP level design too well. All of 4's maps are pretty bad, barring Haven, and the stock version of it was absolutely god awful with landmark callouts.
Great now monetize it with a business plan that can earn you $300 million back

I was joking sorry. That would be pricey to ship both ways just to try a game.
i miss you buddy
