It's a really fun time and they take place Tuesdays at 7PM EST. So if you want your map posted or if you'd just like to attend TNT click here. TNT Update - Our Community Moderator RedStarRocket91 has joined the operation of Tuesday Night Tests and will be hosting lobbies for players that can't make it to AbleSir Thomas's later lobbies. RedStar's lobbies for TNT will begin at 3PM EST. AbleSir Thomas would like everyone who wants to get involved in TNT to friend the new account made for it: TNThalo01. AbleSir Thomas gave me some more inside info on TNT this week. The lobby was successful. We continued to play customs for about an hour after formal testing.GT: CrimsonVolverMap name: Sanctorium 2.0Canvas: Forge IslandReason: Test playability, spawns, weapon placement and selection, etc., for Infinity Slayer.Players: 2v2 or 3v3. Really cool atmosphere but we had problems with the map being too "confined". Crimson is looking to scale up his map and test again. Gt: AbleSir ThomasMap: ImpassGametype: DominionPlayers: 12Notes: overhauled all bases and the alpha charlie flank. Would like input on playability, balance, framerate, etcNew additions played well. I've already overhauled the map based on the feedback. GT: Blaq CloudMap name: HeliosCanvas: Forge IslandReason: Testing fixed spawn system and general gameplayGame type: Big Team Infinity SlayerPlayers: 12 - 16We had some issues with spawn trapping. Blaq cloud received allot of quality feedback. I look forward to playing this next Tuesday.Map: GarrisonGT: Zandril S312Gametype: SlayerPlayer Count: 8Notes: I want to know if the weapons placed on the map are balancedThe layout was cool but the map felt cluttered. Players had a hard time moving around. Zandril lagged out and was unable to receive feedback. I'll be contacting him with proper feedback.

Featured Map Here's a map that should've been featured in the Wrapup long ago. This is Mutant by Darkling Ninja. He was helped by some huge names in the Forge Community such as Redemption1272, the winner of our Meet Your Maker Forge Contest, WARHOLIC from The Halo Council, Psychoduck of THFE, and The Fated Fire who was one of the runners up in the Meet Your Maker Contest. I play tested this map before it was updated and it was fun then. I haven't played the new one yet but I can only imagine how good it is. Here's a nice video walkthrough for you posted by THFE. HOT TOPIC Here's a picture for the newest text based role playing games called Halo: Arcoast Tides created by JL X4, D-38 Boss, HaloGeek, and Axilus Prime. If you're into the TBRPG scene then check this one out. I mean look at that map created by our Art Department's main man Insignia! Find the game here. PLAY DATES Halo 3 Play Date The Halo 3 Play Date was pretty fun. We got to play a lot of different mini games, no competitive games except for one FFA in the beginning. Everyone had a pretty good time but it ended pretty early for most. Participants: D-38 Boss, skummgummigubbe, HaloGeek, JL X4, Elite, Elite SnIp3r, BaneHalo, GermanShepherdD Dominion: The Day Away Play Date The Dominion: The Day Away Play Date is a Play Date where we play nothing but the best Dominion maps Halo 4 has to offer made by some of the best mapmakers like AbleSir Thomas, Unwanted Soul91, Wraith2028, T O IR T A, and more. Check in each day for a sneak peek at the maps we'll be playing on in the official sign up thread here. We're always looking for your Play Date ideas, please post them in here. Everyone who participates in any Community Play Dates gets the Gamer Award: Attend Play Dates, rack up awards! YOUTUBE Here's a video by 0lAH that's really cool because it shows you a cool secret on Abandon in Halo 4. 0lAH shows you how to get a second Sniper Rifle so you can have two on the map! It's unsure whether 343 put this in on purpose or not bu it's really cool. Give his video a like! Thanks for stopping in and reading now scroll back up and read it all over again.
