I was clearly talking about Highground specifically.

BTB is nothing but who can be the bigger douch bags. Good players just know that going into it. You don't.

Friend of mine was playing BTB yesterday. His record that day was 39-1. So to say people other than BKs and Good kids that enjoy stomping them play BTB is silly.

If I had a BTB tool of destruction list. Banshee and Tank would be near the top.


I'm pretty sure those are the people who are douche bags, not BTB. I can find douches in any playlist, especiacially the Ranked ones. Social BTB is much more relaxed and fun.

Even though this is a bit off topic. I personally like Halo games better than COD games because of the teamwork involved, sheilds, grenades, and the fact that everyone starts with the same weapons. I think that is what makes halo fun.

Even though it can be really fun to go 150 and 12 on shipment, one shot kill games get kind of repetitive to me. I do enjoy them though, just not as much as halo.

Back on topic, I think it would be great if there was one mid sized symetrical map in the beta. Anything similar to Midship, Assembly, Warlock, Sanctuary, The Pit, etc. I'm not saying a remake, but something that has no vehicles and is symetrical would be awesome to play in the beta.

so because bungie didn't give the beta very good maps it's the worst game ever?

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....no


Actually they thought those were AWESOME maps no doubt is why they chose them. We told them snowbound sheild doors are bad. Did they listen?

Well gameplay wise I liked the beta better. I liked the beta armor better to. It stood out like a sore thumb so you didn't get disappearing in the dark and like colors BS especially Blue.


Yes, they did. You really shouldn't be whining if you don't know what you're talking about. There aren't "100's of coding errors", not by a longshot.

I don't know. I actually liked Valhalla and High Ground. They are actually my favorite maps. The Pitt is just basic and bland, but I guess that is what people want. Something that is easy to learn and functional without too much thinking.

Even during the Beta I hated Snowbound and I will continue to hate Snowbound. Even without the shield doors snowbound flows like a muddy river.


Exactly, I love the elegant maps like Valhalla, and Orbital. But all anyone wants it plain basic maps because, "OMG MY GRENADE GOT CAUGHT IN A WALL, BAWWWWW"


The point of Multi player maps is not to look around at the prettiness. honestly basic works for me, only as long as the gamplay is good.

The best Beta maps would be:

A Blood Gulch Remake
A Midship Remake
A completely brand new mid-sized map.


Well, they already remade Midship, so you got that.

I think it'd be nice to see a Beaver Creek remake. It's simple and exciting.

Exactly, I'm glad someone agrees. Gameplay beats pretty graphics anyday. I wish Bungie's map makers felt the same way.

So a map has to look like ass to play well?

Orbital, Heretic, Valhalla, and Avalanche are all beautiful looking maps, that play well.

Whoa, what? Sudden change of mind, perhaps? You called them bottom-end maps in your first paragraph, and here you said they were awesome...

I don't understand you. At all. Why are you even here if you don't like Halo?

*Is waiting for a witty response in which you explain that you DO like Halo, and why, and what the purpose of this thread REALLY is*

Nihilism (from the Latin nihil, nothing) is a philosophical position that argues that existence is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.

Put simply in the words of Nietzsche as "the will to nothingness".

COD4 launched at the same time as H3 with a 3rd the fanbase. Look how far it has come.

COd4 and CODwaw are part of the same fanbase and if you combined them they would be #1.

Just wait for MW2 and all the cod players will converge.

You obviously cant read because in no way does my post imply that. I was merely asserting that gameplay should be the priority over graphical design when creating a map.

A good example is Onslaught. It is probably not the best looking map because its forged, but it plays very well. Especially for what it is intended to play. Some examples of pretty maps that dont play well are Epitah, and Snowbound. Yeah sheild doors look cool, but it doesnt play well.

So no a map deosnt have to look bad to play well. I just believe that its better to have a map that plays well than one that just looks good. If it does both than thats awesome. I hope that cleared it up for you. If not I can try to use smaller words so you can understand better.

Other than the fact that you don't like two of Halo 3's best maps, Valhalla and High Ground. (IMO)

They're elitist dumb--blam!-s who think that the way they play is the ONLY way to play, because they've achieved the highest rank. And when they're playing their way and don't succeed, they think the game is broken.

Im always getting killed unjustifiably b/c of map geometry too. You just have to learn it. No one can four shot 100 percent of the time. You 'll go insane thinking you can and get really angry when you don't. Halo CE wasn't as romantically perfect as you like to think it was. That game had its own problems but still was great.

I'm sure Bungie tries to make their games as horrible as possible. That way you will be sure to buy them and keep their business going.
