  1. All these maps and screens look great! Nice work making a trailer too. The voice didn't fit well though, it sounded like he was stuffing himself with a muffin.....
  2. Wasn't this on ForgeCafe as well? It's a great map it plays well too!
  3. You should have posted this in "Halo Combat Evolved + Anniversary" But to answer your question I think so. An extremely few amount of people probably do. I played a few games last year and the population seemed fine. Also a small amount of people still play Halo 2 Vista and I don't have a trouble finding games. You will probably get bored easily unless you already have copies of the game I would say waste your money on Halo 2 Vista. More people play it, and if you find that fun go to Halo Custom Edition.
  4. Teabagging started in real life I don't know how but I guess bullies did it just as a bully would give a wedgie or swirly or take your lunch money(I have never seen do a bully do any of those things so I don't know why people say that) Well to put it shortly jerks that would teabag in real life started doing it in Halo 2 I guess since there was Xbox Live as a way of saying "haha suk it Lol xD"
  5. So I couldn't playtest the map as I wanted too but I went in forge to check it out and feel like it will do well in 1v1 and 2v2 gametypes. 3v3 seems good as well but hectic. I also have a problem with the rock ramps in the middle if you enter at a certain angle you can't just walk up into it? I've never used Forge Islands(The background displeases me) so I don't know how the rocks work and if there is nothing you can do to fix that. Also on red side the crate jump seems to only work if you crouch jump(Again due to the rock) Other then that it seems like a fun map to play and hopefully I can get some playtime into it. It even seems fun for Gun Game.
  6. I'm really happy about the team we got going on here! Please all of you refer to your inbox I just sent a PM to everyone.
  7. Well you can always like 343i and the Xbox for Halo and not like Microsoft at all
  8. So you're telling me 1,000+ people in a single playlist isn't that much? We need to view numbers more realistically. I go on Halo 4 daily and the numbers change drastically each day. Yesterday there weren't many people on but on Sunday it felt like Halo 3 again. I am convinced that people are split between too many games nowadays. We didn't have a battlefield on consoles back during Halo 3's launch(Bad Company came out in 08 I believe) and Call Of Duty just started becoming popular. Plus there were only 4 Halo games to play online at the time (Halo 2 and 3 and Halo 2 Vista and Halo CE PC) Now we have 6 Halo games you can play online Halo 3, Halo 2 Vista, Halo CE PC, Halo 2(Through Xconnect I forgot the name but its a 3rd party software very few people still play) Halo Reach, and Halo 4. Halo 4 still has more people online then any of the rest.

    ODST

    Do it legendary solo. It isn't that hard(It will take you awhile though so maybe finish it on heroic first so you know the maps and missons then legendary solo) and boom achievements galore!
  10. You forgot to include that it's different people composing the music. It isn't like previous Halo music because Martin didn't compose any music for Halo 4. If you dislike it then thats perfectly ok opinions for all I agree the menu music was weird but it pays a slight homage to the original Halo theme(The one with the chorus forgot what its called) I think Neil should get a slight break he tried his best and he wanted to be unique not blatantly copy Martin's style. Although one thing for sure though is if they ever have another Warthog run I better recognize the music right away. As for Halo 5's soundtrack from what we have neen told the game is going to be very dark so expect a darker soundtrack.
  11. I hate to break it to you but I highly doubt 343i took your idea and made the flood gamemode in War Games. I am sure that they knew from the start they didn't want flood in Halo 4(writing these games isn't easy ya know) So they used "Infection" as a way of giving the flood a cameo appearance in Halo 4 so people will know 343i didn't forget about the flood. I am sure if someone saw your idea they would let you know that they liked the picture/something of that sort.
  12. Try restarting your modem/router. Or go to network settings and disconnect from your connection then reconnect. That sounds extremely odd I haven't heard of those kind of networking issues in Halo 4. Do what I just recommend and then tell me your results. Also can you get into custom game lobbies just fine?
  13. They won't. It's already $100 dollars cheaper. Plus these big companies don't make much profit on selling consoles they make most of the profit from selling software. I highly doubt any console will lower the price until the end of next year at the earliest.
  14. Dude the series is far from dead. I've been to already 7 gamestops in my area both are soldout of pre-orders for the Xbox One and PS4. You're thinking too hard about this a lot of people will still buy Halo and it's up fans of Halo to keep supporting it and introducing people to it. Plus maybe people will change their mind and get the xbox one once they see Halo 5 or another game they like and they end up getting Halo 5 as well? I understand your point and at first I was a bit worried too but the best way the Halo community can help is keep being awesome and introducing more people into the wonder of Halo. I know this will never happen but if Halo 5 came out on PC I would buy both versions. Console and PC(I understand why they won't port it over but a spartan can dream can't he?)
  15. Sent you a PM with more information thanks for applying Midnight!
  16. I play violent video games quite frequently and ironically I'm a pacifist(Well to be clear I don't like starting fights I perfer to avoid them as much as possible and so far I always do. I only think you should fight if it absolutely necessary) There has been dozens of studies on video games and violence and all studies provide inconsistent evidence(I read this on Kotaku forgot the article name) Like Zag said if you have a underlying mental condition then playing violent video games might actually provoke you to do violent things but it all depends on the person.So far scientific studies on this topic don't always find an answer they can agree on weather or not violent video games can link to violence.
  17. Thank you Frankenzer for helping me out on this one you're right. I have seen so many more people play Halo now then ever before. Sure people are split between Halo 3, Reach, and Halo 4 at times but the fanbase just keeps getting bigger and diverse. Halo 4 sold extremely well a lot better then what 343i expected. So your argument just seems weak. If you don't like Armor Abilities then play Slayer Pro or anything with "Pro" in the name or Team throwdown(I think throwdown doesn't have AA sometimes). I still don't see what you're so fussed over. 343i has listened to people like you and have given you guys options in War Games. Also if you want a mod that captures the Halo 3 feel just check out "HaloPromod"
  18. Wait so is this basically a new single player mission for Halo 2? that you made? I know nothing about Halo 2 mods sorry.
  19. Spartan Assault isn't an RTS its a top down shooter. Also Windows 8 runs so much faster then Windows 7. It's ok if you can't get ahold of it but chances are that if you have Windows 7 you're crippling your computer more then Windows 8.
  20. Fraps and Dxtory are amazing for recording Video Games. they're quite cheap too and thats kind of the standard for PC recording Camtasia is good for recording anything else besides Video Games.
  21. Going to try this map tomorrow. I'll tell you what I think! Never played a forged competitive map outside of War Games.
  22. Can you please type with proper grammar? I mean I hate to be that guy but please don't be lazy and type "yr" instead of "year". Halo's fanbase is still fairly large it isn't dying. The population is still pretty large. Well you can always play Rumble Pit or Slayer Pro variants if you want that "classic" Halo feel. Please remember Halo and Call Of Duty are very different games so it would be nice if you didn't compare them. Call Of Duty does change but in very small increments. Plus CoD is available on 4 different platforms when Halo is only on one.
  23. I love the ODST one. I would prefer both but if it had to be one then Silenced SMG would be nice.
  24. Change is the only constant my friend. Also this isn't an actual 343 forum. It's a community forum. Now on to my reply If you miss the old Halo games then play them. Halo isn't dying brotha. Did you watch the Global Championships? The Halo competitive scene is still doing well! If you don't like Armor Abilities why don't you play gametypes that don't have them? (I think legendary slayer doesn't have any. Also any game varient that has "Pro" in the name doesn't have custom loadouts or armor abilities.) Also if you want to play classic H3 slayer check out "Halopromod.com" They have what you need. But I personally like AA and they are most likely going to stay.
