Lol, ironic because you play on those SAME maps in MLG.

Watch your shebs, vod.

I really liked Chateau. Kills the crap out of Cliffhanger and all the other FW maps.

OP after you made Think Twice I don't ever want to read your Forge advice.

Most people want tips on how to forge better. and who can balme them :3 its fun to forge! but you must remember! the co-ords system is NOT as good at you at putting the pieces in the right place! its your map! if your able to be more exact than co-ords then Great! im close to being like co-ords but im not :( im just proud to say ive forged maps that are very fine and im porud of them :3

Holy -blam!- OP made Affinity too?! Jesus Christ I'm never reading this Forge advice. Think Twice and Affinity are two of the worst maps I've ever played. They're just AR rushing bundles of cluster-blam!- with no areas of map control or strategy other than running around mindlessly until you get to the next encounter.

Which I'm told by Goat is OP's playstyle anyway.

Pretty much sums it up.
OP and his cronies have single handily helped contribute the self destruction of this game and the franchise as a whole.

It's pretty sad that a small few can destroy something that was once so great.

Bazza, OP also never really plays MM, which is hilarious to me because if he did, he would make better maps gameplay wise.

Spread the love...

Some of the URL's in the OP are messed up, you might want to change that.

Nice effort, good stuff :)

We designed maps that we found enjoyable. I'm sorry they didn't mold perfectly with the "competitive" play style that seems to dominate the Halo franchise. I now see that it was selfish to make a map that I enjoyed, one that brought back the silly feel that LAN Halo CE had. To play the game for fun, for good times with friends; to pick up a new alien weapon and explore new environments. I suppose this type of gaming has died.

I should apologize for my hand in destroying such an esteemed franchise.

I'm sorry.

People take games much to seriously. I can't help but feel sorry for those who've lost sight of what a game is, what Halo was. I wish I could do something about this, but it's to ingrained into the "online" culture of modern gaming; the faceless enemy.

Oh well, I guess I tried by being apart of these projects. I will learn from my "failure" and move on. We appreciate the feedback.

P.S.- "Cronies" wouldn't do my relationship with Goat, Godly, and Jonzors justice. I'd say "true friends" is better. Despite going our separate ways I consider them to be this. Just because we represent a different view on map making doesn't warrant you the right to attack our relationships.

I love you guys and it was fun to build think twice, but I don't think we should work on maps together anymore because of how different our play styles and forging abilities are. Still doesn't mean we can't help each other out here and there though. I'm still the healthpack hero :P

I miss running customs with you all. We should host another custom day sometime soon!

Agreed on all counts.

Except for anyone with more than 3 brain cells they're not enjoyable. A bunch of tunnels culminating in a cluster-blam!- of random spawns and no map control or spawn trapping is fun if you're 6. Still, it's only in Team Slayer, so I guess it appeals to that population pretty well.

I'm still here every once in a while. ;) Been busy with my new son, developing a game, helping people get their maps into matchmaking through waypoint, and hanging out @ RP. I just fixed the three url links and added the latest 3 lessons that I've written. Hopefully I'll write a couple more soon.

God forbid you get to decide, your maps are awful and I hope you never forge again.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.
