Firefight is made to AFK in. That's Reach's "Investment" system

That new helmet was like a doll or something... no CE multiplayer.. and ONE Firefight map!? Very, very disappointed in those guys.
Seeing as how Reach's Firefight maps weren't even "made" they were just ripped from the campaign, you'd think 343 would have a little more respect for their fans then that. Three is the minimum for a gametype, even if it is 40$.

I'm just saying because I saw the preview for Installation 04 a long time ago and I was thinking about all the badass Halo 1 Firefight levels they could do, and I was repulsed when I saw that one, single map. Limited is gone anyway so Firefight is dead but it's just the fact of the matter that it's one freakin' level man

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

I rather them pour their entire resources towards H4 than Reach at this point.

How about you take a few programming classes, and learn how hard it would be to put new armor and such, the GRD dolls were a joke to the fans that "thought" they were getting the GRD helmet back with defiant. As for the CE muiltplayer/firefight, it would have been harder for 343 to redesign the original Halo maps. None of them were coded for xbox live , meaning there are probably net code changes that would have been needed ontop of the graphic overhaul. Look at the coop over live with HCEA, lots of people had issues with lag, now imagine muiltplayer. Besides now they are putting all their effort in H4, Anny was for the 10yr of Halo, not a new installment into Halo. And with the exception of the TU in every playlist practically, 343 has done a good job!!

They give you 6 new MM maps, 5 playlists to choose from, and you're complaining about 1 FF map?

Expand your Halo world, sweetie.

They had screenshots showing the new armor, apparently straight-up lying about it to their fans.
I don't care about Firefight, it's just the simple fact that it's ONE map, when the potential for making amazing Firefight maps and taking advantage of Halo 1's locations was huge.

Entire resources? But that's the only thing they're making right now isn't it?

Assault on the Control room Firefight Limited would've been really cool. But I guess it'll just be either DLC or simply another forum topic like all the Sandtrap remake requests.

Too bad 343 aren't making the games. They are paying other people to do it.

Nah, they actually have a vast development team.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

would've been better if the DLC went with the anniversary maps

Not all of the FF maps were ripped from campaign. There was the one that came with Defiant.

When did they ever say "HERE, NWU ARMUR.. DUUUUUR".

They haven't lied lol.
You just assumed, like allot of the little kids that "picture = you getting it"

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Certain Affinity made the maps, not 343. Installation 04 isn't just "ripped from the campaign" because it wasn't made from the Saber Engine used in CEA, CA built it the same way they did with Unearthed - from scratch. There's no CE multiplayer because it would cause Reach's population to stagnate and divide into 2 different games.

My dear fellow, please use some degree of common sense. 343 is hard at work on Halo 4, Reach wasn't built for the purpose of longevity from the start, it's amazing how they've managed to keep the game going for so long.

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

This, though let's not forget the fact that 343 said it would takes months to do and even then it wouldn't play exactly the same as Halo: CE did.

Reach's population was already declining, the best think they could've done was remade Halo 1 with it's multiplayer. That would've give people a reason to play halo before Halo 4.

343's time is better spent working on H4 then working on a multiplayer that would last a year.

Why? It would just screw things up for Halo 4 when it comes out, the population would still be divided between the two games... Reach's population is at least steady now because it has catered to 2 different audiences with the original matchmaking and the TU.
