Now we wait. (Some more.)

Somehow this gif perfectly captures your personality.

Holy shit the flood and spartan IVs look incredible. Still feeling a lil salty about the Knight's lackluster design though, especially when the are going to be the core enemy unit for campaign. This would have been far better

Yeah, I agree. Seeing the fierceness of the Knights in action -- dancing around the battle field, lunging at their enemies, meleeing Elites off Ghosts -- has made me warm up to them, but I still think their design is disappointing. It's the faces, really. The faces detract from the otherwise great design. I look at the faces and I think Halloween mask, not ancient alien warrior. I hope they make a few changes in their design for Halo 5.

lol'd

Look at dat Oceanic!
Yeah, I'm really liking that helmet. It reminds me of the compound insect eyes.

First they came for the Grunts.
Then they came for the Jackals.
Then they came for the Elites.
Now they've come for the Flood, and still people say it's perfectly okay because it's just 343's innovative vision.
I like all of those redesigns except for the Jackals. I vastly prefer the avian look.

Ragnarok.

The time when Vahalla is destroyed in Norse myth.
Hell fucking yes. One of my favorite maps ever. It'll be so nice to play on it with better netcode and a more consistent BR. I'm not sure about having a DMR on it, though...

Mehalla. Unless it's just the canyon of Forge World 2.0

Here, I'll save Bradygames the time coming up with copy:

Ragnarok
Get to the middle hill. Proceed to win game.

Well guess I'm sticking with GAF for the night, Waypoint is locking topics about the remake as it is 'leaked'.

EDIT: and banned from Waypoint for posting a link to a Flood screenshot, fucking great.
 
The Hate on the remake... Whateves, it'll be good. Happy knowing it's not sandtrap. Sandtrap was primarily fun with Snipes, Brute Choppers, and Mod Customs. That's it.

I want to play Halo MP, but I don't want to play 3 or Reach.

November, hurry up.

9 of my accounts got banned on there, because I kept going on different accounts and the mods were getting pissy because it was 'against the rules to have 2 accounts' I mean wut? That's a stupid rule, if I have more than 1 xbox live account I should be able to use it, even if it was because my other account got temporarily banned.
My first account getting temporarily banned was stupid, I was round my mates and when I went to get something to eat, he posted something and the mods banned me for it. -/-
 
Valhalla is one of my favourite maps, so in that sense, yay.

However, people have already pointed out how we'd be worried about how this'll work, for a few reasons. Looking forward to finding out either way.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.

Indifferent about Valhalla. Could have been worse, for me personally could have been better. The Pit, remade knowing that sprint is in the game would have been fantastic but hey can't win em all.

Talents, you like the weather here in England? You craaaazy ;-)

Elzar, have you been flooded? (I think I remember that you are up somewhere in Durham)

Edit: So far, Solace and Haven looking like really good maps. Hopefully some of the others (unannounced) are around that size.


Luckily, we'll only have to put up with it for two years. Would prefer no remakes. Remakes should be like Cold Storage: free bonus DLC.

Yeah good point. Remakes are always going to split opinion. At least it wan't Blood Gulch eh?
 
Haven, Adrift, Solace and I believe Complex are all symmetrical maps, Haven and Solace definitely being small. So far that's 4, which i believe is more or the same as reach.

I haven't seen enough of those maps to really know... But they all look really complex and large.

Haven't seen solace or complex at all so maybe they are different.

Complex and large? Haven is really simple, symmetrical and rather small. Solace is symmetrical as well, it'll be a fine competitive map.
 
No, I am. I just have anger issues usually, if someone/something annoys me. I do Martial Arts to try and relieve the anger, but it doesn't really work, hasn't done since I started it.
Maybe you should try yoga, or at least tai chi. Depending on the style you take and the instructor who teaches you, the mental discipline doesn't always translate into improving your calm.

Now I'm sad about the fate of Too Human again. Thanks, tentacledigits.
you're welcome, Scientologistrockstarmultiplicationsign

Honestly, give us just one small arena map and leave the rest to the forgers.

Use dev resources to build medium/large maps with stable framerates, since those are harder to pull off in Forge.
Indeed. There are a lot of great amateur designers out there, just lacking the right tools to make quality maps for most everyone to enjoy.

Blows my mind to think this is on another Forge environment and that we can now put custom pics to display in Custom Games!

bawwwhahahah quick, somebody get Ramirez!
Talents lol, do you enjoy setting yourself up?

Do you have multiple GAF accounts?

Man those new pictures look jawdropping on the small iphone screen, like some next gen (or PC) stuff.

Yeah I gotta stop looking at them on iPhone 5 and new iPad screen. It's making them look way too good.

On the other hand, if they are able to still look good under the intensity if such amazing high resolution screens...

Done a few. From when I was 5-9 I did Jiu-Jutsu, 9-11 Aikido, 11-Now (16) Wing Chun. I'll be staying with Wing Chun as it's one of the ones that is best suited to me. I've done Tai Chi before, not a class, out of a book. Not as angry as I was when I was younger, now I usually just take out a few punches on a bag and that's it.

Nope, it's against the rules, and I respect this place a lot more than Waypoint.

NO. That is UNKNOWN iXi speculating after Fyrewulff raged about Ragnarok.

That would be awesome, be we have no evidence of it yet. Let's not start rumors. ;)
I vaguely remember 343 mentioning that they are able to do it for Forge maps that go into matchmaking.
Personally I think it's a necessity.

At this time I believe it was they have the ability to make custom map shots (since it was a known issue with Reach Forge variants), but it was unknown if Forgers would actually be able to make the shot themselves or if it's something 343 has to do when they rebake a map variant for matchmaking.

I'm not raging, but I'm not exactly marking out either.
