Tempest = Relic??? That would rock my world.

This map pack is going to be so cute I can't wait to get my paws on it.

shoot me now bungie, please.
3 maps?! no im not paying 10 dollars a bunch of your lazy maps design team made. i'm not trying to be a troll its just the ones released with the base game were not that great, no classics and hemmorage is not a sucessor to blood gulch in my opinion. in addition, you need more than 3 maps new forge items, vehicles, something! try something new this IS your last halo game isnt it?!?! Please!

I'd rather have more forge items and armour pieces, but this looks very good.

I hope you can place trees in Forge on Tempest, I'd love to see that. I hope by "large palette" They mean "lots of rocks and trees, and less about walls."
More scenery like trees is what's missing in Forgeworld. That and the ability to diverge water.

I agree with you. They need to add the ability to forge with land, trees, and water. Because we don't just want everything to look all Robotic and Futuristic with walls. We also want to make things natural and good looking. Just a suggestion that I have been thinking about for a while.

Not only that, but I wish they would add some firefight maps... I don't understand why they don't do like gears of war with horde mode and allow firefight on the same maps as the competitive multiplayer...

  • 10.16.2010 6:31 AM PDT

woot

so what if, just what if you bought the legendary edition? then shouldnt you get the map packs for free? i mean it does say that the flames surround the loyal... im thinking that we were loyal enough to buy it, so... free maps to the VIPS?

  • 10.16.2010 7:58 AM PDT

Unfortunately, i've noticed over the years, Bungie is sapping more and more money out of their loyal fans for crazy things like, pre-orders,avatar-s***, map-packs for 800+ Microsoft Points etc. As if they didnt have enough money already...Sure, Halo:Reach is awsome and all... but i definitely guessed this would happen... Like, "hmmm, these multiplayer maps are OKAY, but there doesnt seem to be a lot of them...i feel like i play the same maps all the time...They'll probably come out with map pack and charge a ridiculous price for like 1 map".... Sign into Bungie.net today and whaddya see?!.. C'mon Bungie, break the chain. Making holes in your loyal fans' wallets wont gain their respect. Maybe some FREE dlc stuff can? What a concept right?! (Gamertag: ApacheA64D) Thanks for reading!*

  • 10.16.2010 8:23 AM PDT

I definitely agree. The maps Bungie released at launch were pretty much fail to begin with. maybe 1 or 2 unique maps, but the rest were forge world remakes of old halo 1,2&3 maps, I defenitly am upset that they are charging for the first map pack, but oh well. Gotta make money somehow :/

  • 10.16.2010 9:50 AM PDT

i think they should put it as like a system upgrade so they come with it like in cod and the extra maps

  • 10.16.2010 11:23 AM PDT

there is a problem. Bungie cant jjust hand out free maps, yes they are being greedy, but its microsofts fault too. on xbox live a game dlc with over a certain amount of content HAS to cost money because microsoft has to make some money. so blame both.

oh and this dlc is going to suck @$$ because bungie cant make a good multiplayer map, there too lazy now in my opinion

  • 10.16.2010 2:02 PM PDT

I'll be getting them.

Everybody is entitled to their opinion, and if they wanna pass they can pass. I'm just here to represent someone who is very pleased with Reach. I feel sorry for anyone who isn't, and I hope Black Ops (or any other game) gives you the fun you're looking for. And if you like Reach but don't want to pay for only 3 maps, more power to you. At least you're being reasonable.

800 points is fine with me.

what happened. h 2 + 3 are great. reach is lacking online gameplay consistency. empty a half clip of dmr with direct head shots...b4..the opposition fires 3 shots back and they win?? gow2 suffers from serious online bull regarding their online gameplay but this takes the biscuit! fix it :)

Can't wait to play Tempest in the Noble map pack!!!

How is Bungie seriously going to charge us for three new maps? Paradiso is such a piece of -blam!- that it is un-playable on almost every game type. Give us some more big team maps!!!

How is the grocery store going to charge us for bread and meat?! It's ludicrous I say!

So blame Bungie, who have no control over the price of these maps or the option to make them free/cost money? Wow..

I do recall in the past that Bungie would like to make their map packs free and the such, but Microsoft doesn't allow it.

Disgusting, basically Bungie have sold me half a game. I know you have to make money but you're really having a laugh selling DLC so quickly after the launch date.

Still my dissapointment is nothing compared to what it will be when I buy the DLC and the maps come up about once a week in the playlists.

Can't you just arrange for me to be mugged it will save us all time.

You aren't entitled to anything and neither are ANY of the fans of Halo, not even the ones who bought Legendary.

Bungie aren't going to stand up against Microsoft, they know that MS is in charge, and they control the pricing. They also know that they are in a business and money needs to be made. So although Bungie would like for the maps to be free I'm sure, they're not going to argue.

And this first map pack can't be free, because it's a product that will do us a service, y'know ya pay for those sort of things right?

Ya' Dingus!

Hopefully i think their should be one or 2 more maps for the DLC so it should fit the 800 MS points price.

  • 10.17.2010 10:35 AM PDT

Galad, what are you getting out of licking bungie's ass crack all over the forums? And how sad is it that you would equate map packs to something such as subsistence (bread and meat). This map pack, and charging us for it, is the ultimate dicking. Of course these maps could have been released at launch, but Bungie wanted all those extra hundreds of millions that they will make right at Christmas now. It wouldn't be that awful if say that had given us good maps to start, but if you want BTB or the ability to use vehicles (the best part of the Halo series) you have ONLY TWO options, Hemorrhage and Spire, because Paradiso is the worst map ever created.

All of you saying "What its only 10 dollars?! i piss 10$!" you -blam!-es need to grow up and spend your money on somthing else. The economy is -blam!- and buying these map packs isnt making it get any better. you know why? Because it all goes to Microsoft and bungie and they are greedy little pieces of -blam!- who want nothing else but your money. And you -blam!- retards are sucking their dicks RIGHT NOW. 10$ for 3 maps... 800,000 people are thinking just what you guys are thinking "Oh its only 10$" thats alot of -blam!- money for them. So get your head out of your huge -blam!-s and see the big picture.

God you are -blam!- pathetic fool, please stop responding. Delete your account, this forum can go without your childish, would be philosophical, obvious outlook on -blam!- (LOL, THE BIG PICTURE? NO -blam!-). Do you think boycotting this one DLC will stop Microsoft/Bungie and how/when its been practicing charging for DLC for years? I don't think so. I am not going to sit here and believe you are not getting the content over ten dollars/the economy and that you are trying to educate people on business practices in the game industry. I am more inclined to believe you don't want to buy it due to it being out just when the game had released recently. Choose for the right reasons please.

Its not the big picture that matters because Microsoft and Bungie is going to do what it has been doing regardless, what matters is if people feel that is this DLC worth it. I know I have a good reason, Bungie makes quality content and Halo: Reach is currently my favorite game. I am not going to pass it up because I think I am some self righteous, cheap ass, retarded gamer activist who is out to make people see what the big companies are doing (ITS -blam!- OBVIOUS YOU IDIOT). Deprive yourself of the content, I suppose you have to seeing you are some poor, whiny ass, under 17 -blam!- who depends on mommy and daddy for money.


TL;DR

It is obvious what these game companies are doing to us console gamers, its up to you as a consumer to choose what DLC you can get the most out of and why. It is obvious you are also a fan kid so I know you will have this content later. This is the cost of business and being a console gamer, not everyone is giving like valve and their steam service on the PC.
