Spam is okay, as long as it is not excessive.
Retardation is frowned upon, but somewhat acceptable.

And I say that not from the standpoint of human advantage. The new version of The Cage just makes it 100x easier to fall off, which is saying something given the map beforehand. There should be no FX on ANY MM maps in my opinion.

All these "New" maps are is destroyed versions or slightly altered (Countdown anyone?) of what was already made, literally nothing new came into the equation other than a few skewed pieces and campsites removed. And removing the campsites was a good thing, but it is not going to end the world by adding different maps into MM, other than what was already there slightly modified.

Goddammit 343.

I posted this here because if I posted it on their forums I'd get banned in a second.

Pretty much like the variants in Halo 3, random -blam!- thrown about.

Top red lift on Spooky Base looks incredibly easy to camp.

Hi.

How the -blam!- are you going to make a good Infection map?

You do realize that's how they made H3 infection maps?

H3 Infection didn't suck, that's why it worked.

Wat. They are about the same with the exception of the Foundry and Sandbox maps.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

I'd agree but I've yet to play the new maps in Living Dead yet.

I'm guessing it can be hard to betray others as getting them to stand still may be difficult.

Time, and effort, just like any other kind of map really. The gametype itself may be flawed, however playtesting it to the point where the problems that occur cannot be blamed on the map is when it's done (eg. Shooting and killing a zombie but still being Infected).

...I dislike infection already

Probably will be, though they can use the mancannon to get up on the side as far as I'm aware.

343 only created another problem. They fixed one, but created another one. They really should playtest thier maps before releasing thier final version.

  • 01.12.2012 7:54 PM PDT

Loading...

It would be nice to see if 343i can actually make a decent Forge map and put it into a playlist, there hasn't been much done in that area for a long time and from what i have seen done to the LD maps in the visual aspects it is not to impressive. It may have helped the game play but i think they could have put more effort into it.

no. the maps are good. deadwalk is retarded though. huge random space in back OH WAIT NOE I CANNOT GO IN THERE.

the Special effects are good and present a spooky infection theme. I like that addition.


why they still have the old maps is stupid.
I disagree. Making The Cage "More battle scarred" with a few minor fixes does not make it better.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Lmao, the new version of Cage!!!!!!! LMFAOOMGOAKKLABBBQ

The author basically jumbled around the existing pieces of the forge walls/bridges. They literally "broke" the map.

I guess it's supposed to symbolize how broken Living Dead is >.>

The question is are you ok with the soccer ball in spooky base?

They need 2 add completely new maps not variations of the old why dont they use the good infection maps that the community creates?

  • 01.13.2012 7:58 AM PDT

Every single pummel I have is unboosted.
I play GGL. (Grifball)
I hit inheritor 14/1/12. 16 months after release. I have a life fellas.
Every single killionaire I have is unboosted. 22 from grifball, 4 from LD.

It wasn't meant to be better, it was meant feel like you were on a tightrope, worse than the Penance/Damnation's feel.
