New map: The Pit - coming November

HYPE.

It’s not coming until then because they’d have to drop the forge canvas maps too - and forge isn’t coming until November and isn’t ready until then, so that’s why we’re not getting it yet. Keep enthusiasm up.

This is huge.

Whatever I’m seeing, it’s not the Pit. It’s just the P, because that’s just not IT.

Wait a sec, the pros are playing on the pit live right now. Why the hell can’t we play it?

It’s likely not coming in November. You didn’t listen to what the forge lead said. Forge releases November 8th but the map will be released “when it’s ready”. Which more than likely doesn’t mean day 1. It’s likely we’re not gonna see any forge maps released when forge releases…

Okay. So, there’s a good reason for that.

1: It is on a new canvas map.
2: They are playing a future version of Infinite in the end of prototyping phases.
3: They would have to launch the canvas map for us to get the pit, because it’s on that.

We aren’t getting it until then. That’s fine. They may make adjustments anyway.

Stop making bad replies.

I did say “Until”. It’s probably coming in November - December.

Don’t waste my time with pointless pessimism.

This is pathetic…
This was a “world premire” to celebrate H3…an unfinished map we won’t be able to play until December…

343i sets the bar so low that a single unfinished map is a world premire…

Seriously…

Just making you aware of what the forge lead actually said. It could come in November but it’s highly unlikely given how they’ve handled everything else. Saying “ITS COMING IN NOVEMBER!!!” Is just setting people up for disappointment when it’s not what they said.

I was literally watching it. As it premiered. I said what I said.

This was one big yawn-fest… world premier of one map…really? Typical 343 with too much sizzle and not enough steak… at least tease us with pictures of other throwback maps under development… or is this the only one? If so, yikes….

This would be a much bigger deal if in addition to showing Pit today, they also said that by November 4 they would be releasing remakes of Guardian, Narrows, and Construct.

And they would be putting them in a throwback playlist with no sprint, no clamber, invis and os activating on pickup, etc.

legit would have gone over so much better if they didn’t bother hyping it up lol, if from the start they said it was only 1 map and we`ll be able to play it someday than people wouldnt have been so hyped up

“Let’s not generate hype about our game.”

Imagine being in charge of anything and making that decision. Good way to need to apply to other jobs lol.

There is literally no good spin for this, there is no way to turn this into a positive…this is another L for Infinite
I don’t understand how you can so desperately be trying to defend this

In the real business world it is under promise and over deliver… 343 does the opposite and still has not learned this lesson….

Lol agreed. Hyped this up so much just to disappoint everyone again. They made it seem like we were going to get a new map or something today. Not just a preview for a map coming in 3 months. Then on top of that it’s yet just another bland 343 remake. They do the absolute bare minimum when it comes to remaking maps. They do the general layout with blank forge assets and then release it. Can’t even bother to make the map look good.

Should have learned my lesson. I once again got excited to see what we were going to get for the Halo 3 Anniversary and once again 343 fails to deliver anything. This should have been a first look at HCS and then dropped later today not 3 months from now.

One unfinished map is a world premiere? It’s ‘big things coming’?

343 really shouldn’t of hyped this up at all. They always do less than the bare minimum in terms of keeping up with expectations.

Ridiculous.

Dude, how the hell are you excited over a map coming in November, which could EASILY be remade by a forger within like 3-5 hours, I don’t understand your excitement and honestly never will, It’s only ONE map.
