I've taken several breaks from both Reach and this forum. The last one was two months long and I haven't complained about the game since then.

Jackal Creek was one of my earliest maps, and I stopped discussing it when I figured out the design was flawed. Yes--I myself figured it out, because nobody said anything was wrong with the map. It doesn't help when I don't get good feedback to build. Another map of mine called Pioneer went through the same phase.

I've spent the last 4 weeks drafting and blueprinting designs for this Invasion map. I love to forge, and it's been a vision of mine to make this ODST-inspired map since the game came out.

You wont be seeing any complaints from me about Reach anymore--that ship has sailed. You also wont be seeing any casual or imbalanced maps anymore.

When the map is done you can critique it as you please. Feedback is what makes maps better.

Both me & Bullet (DOOM at the time) told you that the map was unbalanced around the dam and favoured just holding that area down. You threw a hissy fit that anyone would criticise your beloved creation if I remember rightly......

I remember your post, but I didn't have any bad attitude towards your feedback. I just dismissed it because (at the time) I had been testing the map with players who didn't really exploit the map's issues. When someone was on the dam, they either dropped down for a weapon or got killed pretty easily while up there. The dam as a concept was designed for height advantage and to get people to move from their base. However, it wasn't executed that well, which is why I dropped the map entirely.

That thread was months ago though. I've learned a lot since then and I'm taking every bit of feedback straight to the blueprints.

I just can't build for competitive players, so I'll leave that to the ones who'll be playing competitively. all i care about is making invasion not suck.

Stop making maps?

If you don't like the maps I make you don't have to play on them. or post in their feedback threads. These threads are for the maps, not for an interrogation of the map maker. You can take your contribution elsewhere if that's the only thing you're going to spit out.

You're not the boss of me (kid).

I gave you a suggestion, not a command. It makes no sense why you'd waste your time posting in a thread about a map you don't like by a poster you probably don't like either. Why do you even care?

I don't care.

I just like the delicious taste of irony when trolling someone who has spent over a year complaining about a game they are simultaneously attempting to make a map for.

Thanks for bumping the thread then.

And by the way, check out the replies to this thread. Nobody else can get 600 replies on a map that's not even released yet. Consider it whatever you like, but that 'irony' is why I still run this forum even after a 2 month hiatus

That goes for anyone else as well. If you're more interested in the entertainment you can solicit from me rather than the subject of the thread, then don't bother to post your spam. Your sneers and snickers are a waste of everyone's time and should be kept to yourselves.

Map feedback means map feedback, not feedback on the map maker. The latter is completely irrelevant to the thread.

If you've ever claimed to be intelligent, leave now and let those who care about the thread subject continue discussion.

I'm used to it. When you have something somebody wants they'll stop at nothing to take it from you.

The trolls these days are terrible though. I miss when Doom would call me a staff captain.

Nobody steals from the poor right? What do they have of value?

You know what you want from me--whether it's tangible or intangible. You continue to speak death from your tongue to solicit whatever it is from me that entertains you.

You're wasting your own time, and that's what's ironic. You're the fool that follows the fool.

Edit - I like the "boyfriend" comment as it shows you probably have no real friends (or are secretly a bummer) :)

Goat was a popular musician through high school and he's already making a name in college. Pulling life checks on the forums is a really stupid thing to do. Let's talk about Halo for a change, hmm?

So how's the map goat? Can you hurry up and finish?

Don't rush me -___- Setting deadlines for these things just frustrates me.

I'll let you know when I'm done so you can come and test it with me. Bring your own controller cause my other one is broken.

I guess he just does a really good impression of a socially inadequate spastic then....

No life check involved. Just an astute observation on anyone who has to resort to calling someone else a batty boy as an insult :)
