I can't complain since I got them for free. Have yet to even play them. Probably won't for a couple weeks.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I just got it for free.

I'll probably redownload them since I couldn't really play a game yet. Once it started loading I got kicked back to the main menu.

Wasn't able to get it for free so Im not getting it.

nothing special, they all feel the same, really wish halo could break from the map pack tradition and do something a little more interesting for dlc. like more maps dedicated to forging, like halo 3's mythic and heroic map packs. hell, a sandbox remake would do nicely.

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

Oh, and why are we getting all BTB-style maps? I was under the impression we were lacking 4v4 maps.

According to 343, Harvest is a 4v4 map. They probably consider Wreckage one too.


- I guess I'll have to just play more Harvest to really see its quality as a 4v4 map. It seems to have an acceptable design, so I guess thats good.

-Wreckage plays like garbage.

-Shatter is big. I haven't seen any good Mantis play yet, so...

I haven't played them enough to become too familiar with them, but I like them overall. I just wished there'd be more for Forge...

Don't bother, it's not a 4v4 map. 343 is just stupid.

You're talking in 3rd person again?

Never stopped. People just take this schtick too broadly, it's fairly restricted.

My own, nerdy way of saying life checked.
Still no clue what you're talking about. ; _ ;

So teh puma is just gonna say lightning Scythe, abyssal magic, and just to be mean... gank squad.

  • 12.10.2012 2:36 PM PDT

You crossed the line when you said Abyssal magic.

They are all okay. I REALLY like how the Mantis on Shatter is constricted by terrain, leaves much more room for infantry to move about. People complaining need to be quiet. These are BTB maps made for BTB game modes. If you want "MLG COMPETITIVE" maps look somewhere else.

Is this... a voice of reason? Glad I'm not alone here. Not sure what the floods issue with BTB is to be honest, I enjoy it a lot.

Be sure to tell everyone how cool you are. If you don't tell them, they won't know.

Needs more small maps :X

And seriously, why aren't Impact, Ravine and the other forge maps default levels included in the game yet?

I'd gladly play some other forge levels too. I demand more diversity.

  • 12.10.2012 2:47 PM PDT

This is now my main account. My former account was xKingGhidorahx. I've been on this site since 2009.

This is the first time out of all my time with the Halo series where I won't buy a map pack for a Halo game (I've bought every map pack from Halo 2 - Reach, including Halo Wars).

After how horribly map pack playlists were handled in Reach, I refuse to ever buy a Halo map pack again. Plus, they don't even look that great.

Waste of money.

The Reach map packs put me off buying DLC, especially the last Reach DLC map pack (sanctioned by 343) which I probably played in matchmaking half a dozen times. Utter waste of money.

And judging by the video previews of Crimson it looks like this tradition is continuing. All those new maps look identical, there isn't even any nice eye candy.

Join The Reach Asset a group I am very proud to be a leader of.

Harvest is really fun on the outside. The inside building area has been rarely used in my experience.

Wreckage reminds me of burial grounds and looks/sounds cool. Needs mongi.

Shatter is ok, but I feel like there is constant manti all over the map and needs to be 8v8.

Stop arguing over imaginary -blam!-. May as well argue over Santa Claus. There will never be proof that there is/was a god - and before people start saying "HERP DERP PROVE THERE WASN'T ONE ROFLOLOL" well, you are the people who made it up in the first place so we know there isn't one

They're bad, even by BTB standards.

People wanting good symmetrical maps obviously are MLG COMPETITIVE PLAYERS

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

Played 2 games only (I don't remember the map names). Extraction is fun.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

If you have some free time and don't mind, please check out my Youtube channel, and maybe subscribe? I'd appreciate it.

Got them for free, don't feel right criticizing them too much.

I'm really digging Shatter and Extraction though.
