New living dead maps

This post isnt going to be long im just saying that the new living dead maps are terrible for one the cage looks like someone gave there 3 year old sibling a controller on forge and said “here do what you want” and the others just have all the good spots missing and after seeing such a terrible mistake like this to reach when they should be improving it im starting to think we don’t have much hope for halo 4

By “good spots” do you mean “good camping spots” by any chance?

When I read “good spots” I think of those places like up on the ledge in Swordbase.

Good spots? This way zombies don’t get killed all the time. Also humans don’t get to kill farm anymore. I hope they remove all the older maps from living dead.

I can assure you that I’m much older than 3 years old.

OH NOES!!! You can’t sit still and have zombies funneled in to a kill box… waaah!

yea, i’m 19…

also, nooooch did uncongealed didn’t he?

edit:
oops, spooky base is by nooooch, fyrewulff was uncongealed, i’m an idiot…

I’ve noticed a lot of younger players aren’t liking the new maps. But I’m thinking thats because you can’t kill farm. Just going of what I hear on the mics…

The best thing I saw today playing was a group of three players shooting away at the bottom tunnel to no avail on spooky base as a single zombie wiped them out XD

Haha, I saw something similar, although without the humans being wiped out at the end. About five players were trying to access that little tunnel room at the top of the level, trying to smack the thing blocking the way. God, it made me laugh.

Why leave the old maps still in?
As soon as the kids can’t camp for kills they will just vote for the old maps.

REMOVE old maps and living dead will become playable and much more entertaining like it was in H3

IMO there needs to be well defendable positions but not to the point a plethora of spots like sword base ledge which makes it almost impossible to get kills when you’re a zombie. Especially with the scoped pistol. Hanging out on the corner of Power House by the large gate comes to mind on the level of “campyness” that is acceptable. Although, I don’t think I would have a problem with camping spots if they were really hard to get to, like most of the spots on guardian in H3 for example, which you rarely saw people in, but when you did, they got a lot of kills. Honestly, if it was 16 players with 4+ zombies, and possibly even alpha zombies taking 2 head shots to kill, I think even the sword base spot would be acceptable. Right now it’s just way to difficult being a zombie. I would refuse to even leave spawn on most maps once I became a zombie.

So, really I think the problem is less about the camping spots and more about how much being a zombie sucks.

:open_mouth:

Personally I am getting sick and tired of “community-designed maps” in ANY Multiplayer playlist. Most of them are just gawd awful nightmares due to a lack of being able to create anything on par with the game designer maps. Sure, some of the 343 maps and Bungie maps really stink too, but personally I feel like 343 is just “phoning in” these playlist updates anymore.

Living Dead was bad enough with the constant barrage of players going in to see how negative they can go - thanks in large part to Bungie inept ability to truly “resolve” any issues with the betrayal boot system. But now 343 has control and they continue to follow the same mundane path set forth by Bungie - “let’s not fix it … let’s just break it some more while doing very little work on our part so we can dedicate ourselves to making more crappy games for $60.”

If the recent “upgrades” to Reach, as well as the half-baked effort on CEA are any indication, Halo 4 may well be one game I don’t waste my $60 on. I’m not saying I want a “Halo 3 clone” by any means, but at least with that game you could tell the community needs were being addressed far more. Heck, I’ve even heard haters of Halo 3: ODST saying THAT was a better game as of now because of the way Reach has so badly deteriorated.

Enough with the community maps! Tweak what we have - don’t be giving us more kindergarten-style forged maps.

Loved all the new Living Dead maps I played! Don’t remember the name, but the Condemned re-make was SWEET.

If the old maps are removed, the player count will drop. Infection is easy for two reasons, the first being so children can have a playlist that requires little thought/effort. The second reason is to appeal to CoD fans.
