DO THE IMPOSSIBLE.

Wow,

Lame charging for maps that should have shipped with the game, instead we got 3 crappy forge maps

Rebellion in small things to let the world know I haven't surrendered.

Looks pretty cool. Certainly surprising to see them out so fast though. Looking forward to more BTB, hopefully there will be more Firefight maps soon too.

Totally caught me off guard, great to see the content announced and out of the way. Looking forward to playing on the maps.

If you'll excuse me, it's about that time for me to go back to drooling at the skyboxes in those images.

Halo 3 had it's first map pack out before the Holidays of the same year, seems pretty standard.

Is it me, or does Breakpoint look a little like Sidewinder?

That would make me very happy.

  • 10.14.2010 9:20 AM PDT

It's just a game folks.

Bungie Fails. Charging $10 for 3 freakin maps. LOL! Good luck with that. Only the Halo tools of the world will drop that much coin for 3 mediocre maps.

Thankfully, Fable 3 comes out at the end of this month so H:R can suck it after that. Its a lagtastic multiplayer and a craptastic campaign.

I'm glad you're not making anymore halo games. Its about time you stopped butchering the series with your greedy, talentless approach to development. Hopefully, a studio with some fresh ideas and the ability to actually put together some stable AND working netcode will take over the series so we can forget everything after H:CE.

Yeah, it kinda looked like that to me too.
Also finally a snow map....well, dirt mixed with snow at least...I demand a major snowfall!!!

If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

Yay to new content! Boo to 800 MS points! Yay to a new forge map! Boo to it being on a Forerunner planet!

Will the pallet for the new forge map contain brand new objects? If so will those objects be available for use in the regular Forgeworld?

Good job bringing out new maps this soon, but we want more armor please. Add some new and cool armor to the map pack and it will be worth the price.

  • 10.14.2010 9:23 AM PDT

Looking forward to it =)

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.


Totally agreed, phasing rocks on Forgeworld was a good start, but it's not enough for those of us that want to make more natural-looking maps. Expand the palette! And perhaps a later update, Forge 2.5, that includes some small fixes, and maybe the ability to change the weather that was cut from the original game.

ALSO, Please let us add civilian vehicles to our maps! And give the forklift the ability to raise and lower (another awesome thing cut from the game!!)

is it only going to be 3 maps because that seems a little small? don't get me wrong i will buy it because i love the sound of them, but normally we get a bit more than that


What are you talking about. Bungie has always released three maps at a time.

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.

Cool, thanks for that!

  • 10.14.2010 9:25 AM PDT

This is dumb. We don't need more big team slayer maps!

  • 10.14.2010 9:25 AM PDT

The maps look really beautiful, but what happened to the 4 maps DLC standard?

Gonna wait a bit to buy em

Judging by your statement, it appears that Bungie have been working on this DLC for 'months' now?

Months being before the -blam!- game was released, lol?

This DLC was worked on during H:R dev time = We should not have to pay for it. Plus on the fact one of these maps had screenshots released before the actual game came out, lmfao.

Congratulations Bungie, I'm sure lots of idiots will suck up this -blam!-.


Wow, gotta love the ridiculous sense of entitlement some people have. They clearly didn't FINISH the maps before the release of Reach, so how would they have put them on the disc?

They've also been working on their next new game during Halo Reach dev time, so does that mean you should get that for free too? Yeah, lets make devs give away all their hard work that they've put paid man hours into, for free. That way they can go out of business and we won't get any games from them at all. That makes all kinds of sense.

the game went gold 2 months before September, once it goes gold nothing can be added anymore. that's when they started making these. so Shut Up.

also, to all those complaining about price. did any of you play halo 3? cause the first map pack was foundry, standoff, and rats nest for 800 microsoft points. if you didn't expect this to be the same then you are an idiot.

anyway, thanks bungie. tempest looks insane, and i'm glad it has forge capabilities. i'll definetely make an invasion map for that.

I agree this takes the piss a bit, especially considering folks have been paying through the nose for a legendary edition. It's unfair to realease a game then almost immediately whack up some maps for 800 MS points, especially considering these were actually being designed when Reach was being finalised.

Sorry Bungie, I'm saving my coins for Black Ops. I shall purchase these maps on Bungie Day or something when the price is reduced.

  • 10.14.2010 9:33 AM PDT

Awesome!

If you consider putting out Halo 2 maps and a couple Forge worlds hard work then you need to re-asses your definition of hard.

MCz

As much as i love BUNGiE and all the halos, this is just lame. Giving us 3 maps one month after the release for 10 bucks? Seriously ? Thats some milking ! You should have waited AT LEAST 3 months :/

I will defo wait for a price drop, even though the maps look very nice, they should have come with the game or be for a managable price.

I just can't believe people anymore. what would make you want to get on a forum just to say hey I am going to buy this game instead. Who cares, go back to your caves and hide. Halo is the biggest FPS for consoles to date. everything other games are doing Bungie invented with Halo. You want to play a game from some other dev with no support or comunity thats your right to do so. just leave us alone 'cause it's getting old.
