Halo 4: Custom Game Nights!

 

 

Introduction:

 

Hey guys! It's Raxs Slayer here! I have been forging long and hard (No it's not funny!) and i have been producing amazing community maps for me and my friends and all of the community to enjoy, and now for the first time on Halo 4, i have decided to organize a massive public play day!

 

(Update: 1st January 2013)

 

Hey guys, If you missed out Game nights don't worry about it! You will still be able to add me and join in a game night on any random weekend! Thanks guys!

 

Anyone is welcome, the general times are going to be as follows:

 

- Christmas holidays: 18th December - 21st December _ Pre-Play days! For the community to add me and my friends and get to know each other! and play a couple of small games at random whenever we can.

 

- Christmas Time! Here i will allow the community to just enjoy Christmas! December 22nd - 26th.

 

- Official Play Day: From the 26th until the new year! Every day all day, is a chance to tag along in one of my big community plays! I will be on most of the day, and a lot during the evening, until 11PM on most days (UK Timezone)

 

For America: I will be on most of the day, and a lot during the evening, until 6PM on most days (US Timezone)

Guidelines and Rules:

 

Every successful game night isn't complete with some kind and honest gamers. I wish to bring everyone together, make new friends, and have truly tremendous time! So i am going to lay down some ground rules:

 

- First off, "Respect" I encourage everyone to be nice, not bully, teabag only out of pure comedy, and not to wind people up!

- Next Up, "Try not to Swear" It would be really nice if we could control our language, i don't want anyone to feel intimidated, uncomfortable, or awkward, If you do swear i'm not going to 'make you sit of the naughty step'. just try to control yourself

- Next up, "Try not to rage" nothing says "AWKWARD!" Like someone getting their rage on. We are all cool, trying to have a good time, don't be competitive, just have a nice time and it shouldn't happen, we all get annoyed sometimes, but why should you when we are just having fun!

- Please "Criticize" I know it sounds weird but your opinions count! Only you guys can show me what could be better about my maps!

- Finally, "Don't exploit!" If you find problems, glitches or issues with my map, don't exploit them! Tell me and i'll fix them within 12 hours.

 

To Wrap up:

 

While you wait please go ahead and add me on Xbox live! My GT is (With caps and spaces) "RAXS SLAYER". Please feel free to bring a microphone, we will all be in a party, having a laugh and commentating. If you like, you can use a capture card to record our gameplay, and if you like i will take in the footage, process it, and upload it to my channel!

 

Thank you so much for reading!

 

Happy Gaming!

Raxs this sounds like amazing good times! I'll be heading home on the 20th and will add you up then. I'm particularly interested in your flood maps but of course I'm down to try em all out.

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.

The ratings were public acquired (: And yeah, i have now heard of a couple of maps named refuge, but you know, only a few good names out there :S

Can we test some of our own maps too? Because I have a great linear infection map that I just finished and wanted some input on it

I Don't tend to do other players map because it ends up getting very irritating as my connection usually times out when downloading maps, or it doesn't like me using non local maps :S Sorry buddy.
