Ok.. I'll be honest here. Ten Seconds to Comply sounds like a not so good idea.
Not because I think people should be able to go outside the map (though I admit that was pretty neat in Halo 2) but because people who want to mess around can really screw people over.
I'm sure Bungie has thought about all the goods and bads of this and wouldn't include it without good reason so I'll obviously have to "see for myself" and give them the benefit of the doubt but all I can see at the moment is a Warthog driven by one guy who wants to mess up the game driving us out past the barrier with no way back in the 10 second limit.
That aint cool.
Or people who are killing themselves on purpose, sure they can just keep walking out the barrier instead of fragging themselves which is better because then I wont get caught up in the blast and possibly die. But I am sure almost everyone has experienced something in the game launching them across the map... so imagine being launched out accidentally past the barrier with no way to return in 10 seconds? So I die. yay... invisible walls just seem better in a case like that? I guess it would be no different then if I got launched off the cliff or driven off the cliff on Standoff. I'm just expressing my concerns is all.
That has more to do with idiots who want to ruin other player's fun, and you're always going to have peope like that.
Of course, they may be a problem or two, but it's not going to be gamebreaking. 10 seconds will really only give you enough time to land 1 or 2 good shots.
Yeah I agree. I just can't help but picture future annoyances from different changes like this, lol.

Cool update. I'll definetly be there for Halo 2's last hurrah and the maps are looking purty.
Although I was hoping for some type of info on Invasion. When are we gonna know what it is?! For all we know it just could be anything. Except chess. Or could it...? Nah...
It would blow my mind if Invasion (or if we have another gametype) allowed us to play as ANY Covenant race and just have at it. That would be beyond epic... and now with Elites being their actual size and not messed with for "balance" purposes... why not add a Brute or a Grunt playable character? Kinda like Perfect Dark with the Elvis alien character being shorter.
Meh, I know it isn't realistic but one can dream.
I kind of just imagined Invasion being like Firefight, though.
