Subject: Beta Maps Need to not Suck

BYAHH

I love rants. Sometimes I read them and my eyes pop out of my head and I go WHHHHAAAAAAAAAT.

Odd car analogy.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

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.


Off topic:

MW2 Doesn't even look that good.
Actually, it's the only CoD game that has me excited.

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

I liked the halo 3 beta maps. Those maps are still my top favorites out of all the maps available now. For the reach beta I'm all for some good maps but it's just a matter of opinion and you can't please everyone. Personally, I'd like to see a return of blood gulch and I'd really like to see a remake of Death Island from the pc edition of Halo:CE.

Off Topic: Modern Warfare 2's graphics are beautiful. Though, MW2's environments still suck every other game's balls.

On Topic: Halo 3 is still beating CoD4 and WaW. Eventually, MW2 will top Halo 3, but, Halo: Reach will essentially kill MW2 when it comes out.

Also, don't get your hopes up on MW2, we've only seen three videos about it so far. Yes, it will be great, but not the mother of all video games. Gameplay will be pretty much the same as CoD4. Unfortunately, IW has not made much of an improvement in graphics. Gameplay will get stale quick.

Wow, all that dissing MW2.

Halo 3's Valhalla, HG, SB are still amazing, btw.

I am buying MW2 as it looks to be a great game... Yes I just contradicted myself many times up thar....

foolish statement. This game is going to blow your house up


I agree with Privet Caboose, MW2 only looks slightly improved just like ODST was a slighty improved graphically compared to Halo 3. MW2 looks kinda the same as MW to me.

If you ever try and fail.....erase all evidence that it was you who tried

Okay people who play COD hae no real skill it is very easy to kill someone in COD play for 15 seconds and you could have up to 3 kills. Halo takes skill and has it occured to you that they put these so called *glitches* in as easter eggs. For example the rooftops in New Mombasa on the Second level of H2 and the Super jumps. And no the BETA maps did not suck, I spent hours pouring over each map they were awesome, and yes Map playability and symetry and geography matter it changes how the game is played on each map. We need Someone to guard the back or someone grab the Banshee and take out the wraith, The map details matter alot, and they have gone above and beyond any other Game developers when it comes to maps, so stop complaining they are the best out there and you are complaining.... what has this world come to?

  • 10.05.2009 6:14 PM PDT

52,000 kills in Halo 2 and more legendary playthroughs in CE than you can imagine. I am truly a God.

Beta maps need to NOT suck

IDK maybe some people just loved Highground Snowbound and Valhala as the 3 beta maps but those are all bottom end maps. I took a leap of faith that they were holding out on us when I bought the game. I was mostly mistaken. Those were pretty average for bungie.

Other than the 100s of Coding and design flaws. The awful maps are the worst just ahead of terrible gametypes.

Maybe I am alone in this but the Beta will be a sink of swim moment for bungie. If the weapons maps and custom options aren't -blam!- awesome. I'll have several new games to look at by the time reach launches.

Bungie just focus on Multi player being highly fuctional. I don't care about customizable armor. No one buys games for that. advanced(or as we call -blam!-) Multiplayer map geometry doesn't sell games. Good graphics and Consistent fun gameplay where you spend 90% of the time having fun and 10% going Dam XBL. Not 20-30% having fun. 50-60% cursing XBL. 20% going omg my grenade bounced back at me. This may change per player as they lack the ability to throw grenades. Hit anything half the time anyway so noticing XBL BS is hard on their east cost fios. They never played the other halo games. Or any other games like COD since most people keep playing that game unless they are good at H3. That is why COD is beating Halo 3 despite being launched at the same time with a 3rd the fanbase.

If the halo series was Cars. Halo CE, Nightrider. H2, Roadrunner. H3, Geo. It isn't even an economy car is is a -blam!- one. I honestly couldn't bring myself to compare it to my ford escort. That is how far down it has gone.


Don't state your opinion as fact. And do talk like you know anything about coding of programing you dumb ass.

They have no real skill? what defines skill you idiot? I obviously does take skill a different kind. Why do you care what takes more "skill"? Youre not that good at halo anyway so if you think COD takes less than go play that i guess.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Im sorry, but I think most people would have Vahally as one of their best Maps and High Ground not far behind. Snowbound is still a good map, buy yes is one of my least favourites.

Im sure what ever maps Bungie decide will be good.

But I would like to see more switches, ie) the gate in high ground. Halo 2 seem to have more of these than Halo 3.

And another cool thing Halo 2 had over 3, is that some levels were very different depending if you were playing Slayer or CTF.

Does anyone remember the Halo Beta Trip mine. I hope Bungie doesn't add a new feature that was totally the best thing ever. Then tweak it for the final release, so it is almost useless.

The trip mine in the Halo 3 Beta was one of the best and funniest weapons/equipment ever. Then final release of the game, it was very different to the Beat.

Maybe the Beta version was too powerful. But it was fun.

So Bungie just need to be careful if things do get changed. Maybe if they want to tweak a weapon, ask the end user on the forumns. Or add a pole on the home page of bungie net. Because it still annoys me today, about the Halo 3 Beta trip mine.

Btw - polls on bungie.net mean absolutely nothing, so please don't use them to try and prove some kind of point.

Nah they've changed alot more than graphics. They've added new perks weapons specials etc. Tons more customization. It's going to be the game to be playing this winter and until Reach comes out. I just hope Reach is off the hook, and not only slightly better.

YA, NO -blam!- ,using that theory if you count the number of players in halo 2,3 ,ODST,Crackdown than halos the number one still*sarcastic* -blam!- DUMBASS

It's all a matter of oppinion. What you say sucks, I might like. What I say sucks, you might like.

The best Beta maps would be:

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

No.
No.
Yes.
A beta needs to show off completely new maps, that means no remakes in the beta.

I am confused.

Uggh, why do Halo haters and CoD fanboys even come here. It's a halo forum.

Oh, one note as to the MW2 debate. Just like someone else has said, CoD4 will be to MW2 as Halo 3 was to ODST. It will have minor improvements, but I think it will essentially be the same game. Therefor, I think infinity ward over-hyped the game. Nonetheless, I was very excited about the game until I found out that in Multi-player you get a pity perk if you die three times in a row without killing anyone. That just broke the game for me, and I doubt I'll get it until the price goes down a bit.

  • 11.03.2009 4:28 PM PDT

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

For my gamertag, look up "Ghoulishtie"

Highground a bottom end map?! Highground is one of my most favorite maps! You're crazy!

IMO, they need to stick with a 'canyon based' map (NO NOT BLOOD GULCH REMAKE....) and two other maps.

I agree that the Halo 3 maps are nowhere near as fun or interesting as the Halo 2 maps. other than that, cool story bro, stop complaining about the BETA!
