♠ Spades N AZ ♠

I'll go send you a message. Always looking for more content. Good luck mate!

this is awesome! I love seeing new creative takes on shmeefs! Shmeefs for the win.

Love it!

I have seen a lot of B!#CHING and MOANING but not enough action. I understand that the community was not heard on many aspects but money talks. Nothing positive will ever come from getting on a forum and crying. Take action 343I community! Start a POSITIVE thread with ways to improve forge. Have legitimate and valid positive criticism with intellectual points of action to back up whatever you decide to put down. Ultimately like any good business Microsoft is into money more than negative feedback. But......they cannot make money without a fan base. We have more control over Halo then we give ourselves credit for. The only difference is that 98% of the people who b!#ch and moan don't do anything about it. I, for example, have asked a well-known group of top forgers and top MLG players to record their thoughts. Then I will compile this list and send it to a member of Certain Affinity. My one letter will not be heard or even considered despite the amount of well-known people involved and their status in the community. But dozens of intelligent, honest, and polite letters cannot be ignored. Take a stand and DO something instead of just whining. p.s. if you want to argue this, then peace out. If you would like to disagree with me then make valid points to prove your point. Ultimately, we are a team and in this together so don't treat this post as an attack on anyone because it's not. Just stating the obvious necessary steps needed for any change. at this point nothing has been proven as a valid one step action to fixing the lighting glitch. Here are a few "ideas" of what seems to be working.- be careful with object count of dense multi-polygonal pieces. Don't pile them closely together and be careful on budgit. - visuals like wires DO NOT affect lighting glitch - spawn objects like initial spawns and kill zones DO NOT affect lighting glitch - glass still affects frame rate but not necessarily the glitch everything else I have heard is less then 80% supported. Give it time and hope for the best! I have had over 350 maps submitted to me at this point on Halo 4. I have over 100 beautiful, smooth, and perfectly symmetrical maps. In some cases it may be the forger skills and not the editing programs that are to blame Just saying. If you need proof I will be more than happy to show you map after map of forge perfection from those who are willing to adjust and use what we are given.

It was on Wed so it would not cause any interference with other social nights. Friday night is custom game night and we wanted a few days before so that they could fix the map in time for a clean polished map for custom game night. However, this thread will soon be deleted and then reposted when the fileshares are up. For now THERE IS NO GAME TESTING NIGHT. We might possibly reinstate this night once the fileshare is up and running correctly. Sorry to disappoint but hopefully halo 4 will be updated and running smooth soon.

NO custom game night this week(Dec 19) I will be at a Christmas party.....sorry

Always good to see other custom game nights. Especially ones hosted during the daytime hours for those who can't come to my 6:00 pm custom game start times. So who gave the ratings on your maps or were those self-assigned? Hopefully they are on your file share. I am going to go check them out. Just a heads up though 3 out of the 9 map names have already been used in Halo 4. For example "refuge" is Rezix(forger of temple in Reach matchmaking) map which is a recreation of temple and named it refuge. No worries!!!! I am going to go forge, send me a message some time.

Custom game night was solid this week and was actually a full 16 even at the end of the five hour block. Thank you for everyone that attended. More than half the lobby was new faces who were game night virgins. We did something different this week and I assigned two team captains who were then able to choose their teams. After a best of five game tournament the entire team received their own code for a special Locus helmet Also this week over a thousand Microsoft points and some double xp. This means that there are a lot of big ticket items up for grabs in the coming weeks. Come claim yours while enjoying some of the best forged maps out there.

Bring it to game testing night on Wed the 19 of Dec. Check out the official game testing thread.

Fail Master, ςHϵAƨϵMΩηεTΞr, pyro6666, and izTwinkiez we will be doing this every Wed night from now on. If you can make it then great. If not, no problem. Go check out the post on official game testing night.

Robius5991 I have noticed your name several times in the forums and grateful for good members of the community like you. Come show your support to others and also bring your maps to be tested. We will be doing this every Wed night now and are planning on making it a weekly event.

CharlieQbx, Tohdoh, and TheMonkeyofHalo submit any maps you need tested to Spades N AZ or Able Sir Thomas and then come join us on Wed nights for the official 343I game testing night.

TheGingaNinja34 go check out the Wed night official game testing thread and come join us to be involved with another great aspect of the 343I community.

RiseAgainstCode, although I have not yet met you, it would be nice to involve another member of 343I with a new game testing night. We are now doing a testing night every Wed. You are welcome to come join us. Send a message either to me "Spades N AZ" or "Able Sir Thomas" and let's make this happen.

Auxi_Klutch although I have not met you yet, it would be nice to involve another member of 343I with a new game testing night. We are now doing a testing night every Wed. You are welcome to come join us. Send a message either to me Spades N AZ or Able Sir Thomas and let's make this happen.

CrustyChristian I recognize your name and have enjoyed some of your maps. We are now doing a testing night every Wed. You would have valuable input if you would come join us. Send a message either to me Spades N AZ or Able Sir Thomas and let's make this happen.

I'm glad to see some excitement I know that there are many people who just need a few pointers and I hope that this will help. Submit your maps to Able Sir Thomas of the THFE crew and this coming Wed(19) we will pull a group of pro-forgers and pro-players in to give some positive feedback. It's up to us to keep Halo alive!!!

I'm glad to see so many of you willing to help one another. Keep Halo alive!!

Do you have a great map but just don’t have the willing friends to get it tested? Or would you just like to have some pro-players and pro-forgers who actually know what they are talking about give you positive feedback? A new addition to 343 Industries forum with the cooperation of the talented crew of THFE is being implemented. A new game testing night beginning Dec 19 and continueing every week thereafter. That’s right, bring us your masterpiece and be willing and ready to have it reviewed and tested by people who actually know what they are talking about. Beginning Dec 19(Wed) we will be hosting game testing night. A night for you, the fans,to submit your creations and have them tested , whether they are slayer, dominion, CTF, race, flood, etc.. Submit your maps to AbleSir Thomas each week by Monday and have them reviewed and tested in a full lobby that following Wednesday. We understand that not all of you are experienced forgers. We all had to start somewhere. Do as much as you possibly know how and bring us a finished product. We will play it then critic it. You can choose whether or not to implement the ideas presented to you that night and improve your map or not. This will be an open lobby for you to bring some friends in with you along with the available forgers, testers, and veteran Spartan slayers.

Hey Equinoxe! Are you still doing custom game nights? There are still people trying to get in my lobby with not enough room so I'm sending them your way if you want.

just a suggestion.......line of sights double check and add some cover to the middle. Great aesthetics though, good job!

baby nades just message me on Xbox and I will get a lobby to test it for you. Looks somewhat promising

fun to test. Have not seen the final version yet. I will run it for custom game night for you Grif

Welcome man! If you like custom games then check out my thread waaaaayyy down at the bottom of the topics:-). There will be alot of awards this week. Good to have new members even if your not new.
