Wow, I for one am very un-impressed. All they stressed was "Don't hate us, we spen to so much, give us money , don thate us!!!" Oh, and those wonderful "Announcement of the release date" it was a stuttery mess of IN april, maybe, we release, some... then in june, I think, were gonna give you more.... then "late summer" its all free, after everyone stopes playing and no one care to pay....

Oh, and dont forget, there was a void in the single player content. Halo 3 must come around then, if the game ends with that, it lost a full star.

Bungie, GROW YOUR BALLS BACK!!! Just because you made a dam game doesnt mean you need to send your stuttery closet geek out here to give us a line of BS. Please, if you dont have a set date, your second rate, and if you cant just say, our content is this, you must pay for this half, the others are free by promotion. Oh, and now that we fixed the cheats, we will hold off on you for another month so that the cheaters can get that last to level 25 boost.

I'm sorry guys, I love the game, its fun for multi, split/lan/net, its all good in areas, but you disapointed about 20 of me and my friends here who own this game by delaying, covering up, "claming up" as you say then announcing the update as if it was some crippled child with no set date again. Please do something, I play GR2, they have 2 packs out for free in under 2 months, and its made the game rock, free or not, the maps would be better served if you just let them go, and added them.

Well, I know that in the end me and my friends will probobly do what we always do, check the game content, my friend will steal somones and use it, and we probobly wont fork out 20 bucks for 9 maps and a 'movie'. I'll be waiting for the free, if I wait that long before a better game comes out.

Just be glad that Halo is getting new maps. And ya we have to pay for them...So? It probably cost upwards of 500k to make these maps and all you guys do is -blam!-. Bungie could have just said deal with the 12 u have and be done with it. But they have new maps..and NINE!!. that's huge!! You should thank bungie. yes the old maps are boring and Colosses should be deleted..but Halo is still fun..and will always be fun.

look, i think the weekly what's update sucks dick, because there is no new info except for those 4 maps. No info about the stupid patch, no specific dates about when the maps are coming out or the patch, and we were promised -blam!- dates. and bungie, you guys deliver the worst online experience game ever, and you're making US PAY FOR THE -blam!- MAPS, us suck bungie.

I totally agree. Big maps suck on halo. You could have focused only on the cheatfix and do new maps later. Now the game is -blam!- up. Feedback doesn't work, hell I even taped several cheaters and sent it to bungie. I got no reply, they weren't kicked, nothing at all.

KARATE!!!

I really hope Elongation is an amalgam of Damnation and Longest. Replace the bottomless pit with longest and make us run the flag up to the very top.

Damnation was good and longest was.....in my opinion horrible, but they might be good.

.....i remember reading about a new map In gamerinformer before Halo2 came out.
They said it was very tall and had only arilifts to get up into the next level.

Then again they may have scrapped it.

THE 2v2 NEEDS TO BE BR START AND NEEDS TO BE ON SMALL MAPS.

Well it took you long enough. Now I have to wait another month pretty much for the new playlist and maps. How about giving the playlist I kickass in 2 v 2. I dont like warlock that much or containment. Containment just another big map. You need to release more small maps like Prisoner from Halo.

Bungie you just made a boy from England very happy. The only problems for me though arewill the DLC cost the equivalent of $20 worldwide or will you be stingey and make it £20, which is almost $40 and will the disc be released in Europe and Amrica at the same time?. I will be getting the disk seeing as me and 3 mates are buying it and passing it round. Before I go Bungie I have to say Turf = Win. I will buy that map ASAP. I was dissapointed about Hang em High though I even thought of a cool name for it "String Em Low". Once again Bungie = Win but Turf = Bigger Win.

Yah I know turf is a ssswwweeettt map. When I played Single PLayer I thought It would be cool if there was like a Street map.

KevanMan, go cut your stupid, gothic self. That will do nothing, except make things WORSE FOR YOURSELF. Whatever is worse for you is better for me, because I cannot stand anyone who would even contemplate cutting themselves. It hurts...knife...going to skin...=ow...

Onward to Halo 2, Bungie is a team fully composed of idiots. Do they listen to the fans? NO. They think they know what's best for us, when really we ask and TELL them what we want. The fans all wanted Hang 'em High. Knowing Bungie was dumb enough to ruin the gameplay, they were also dumb enough to make assumptions about what the fans would like. So, let's see...We have Midship, which is a port of Derelict in my opinion, and then we have Foundation(s?), which I say is a port of Wizard. Bungie goes out and releases another small, original-level resembling level. We don't need another one of those.

"Brace yourself...Nope. Sorry. While everyone here is aware that Hang 'Em High (and to a lesser extent Sidewinder) would be massively popular, our preliminary tests with Hang 'Em High proved pretty quickly that the changed weapons and physics made it far less fun than you remember it being in Halo: Combat Evolved. Since each map was being lovingly crafted, polished and tested by a full team, we felt the resources were better spent on new maps. After all, if you loved Hang 'Em High, you can still play it on Halo CE."

Then make a new playlist gametype accommodating the architecture of the darn level! Hang 'em High would be great with a Battle Rifle/Magnum mode. I think it is funny how Bungie says they know what they are doing with level ports, and Coagulation totally sucks!

In a world of gangsta rap and sad boys with tight, girl pants...I don't know what to do.

Everybody just SHUT UP with all this crap about Bungie not listening to there fans, Bungie being stupid, Bungie this BUNGIE THAT! Has anyone here made a game like Halo 2? I doesn't seem like it. It costs ALOT of money do make these games. So, to make 9 maps and sell them all on a disk with some other cool stuff and sell it for $19.99, is a darn good price (for stupid people it would be no more then 3 bucks a map). And if you don't want to pay, wait till late summer and get them for free!

And I read a post on the front page about them being copied from campagin levels.. use your brain for once. Turf for example. What level in campagin do you see a downed Scarab? A big warehouse, or a bridge you can knock down??

Anyway, I have games that have Downloadable Content thats 7 bucks a map

These maps look worth the wait and money. Good work Bungie.
