request: concerning the new map

Games Other Halo
1

I would just like to say that I would really like this new map shown off at pax to be the last map shown to us before the game is released.

It may be because I wasn’t nearly in to all this internet stuff at the time but when halo 3 came out the only maps I knew about were sandtrap, high ground, snowbound, and Valhalla.

And it was awesome. To boot up the game and see 6 maps I had never heard of and to jump online and get in a match of gaurdian and just be blown away. It was great.

In reach I knew every single map before I bought the game, and also the maps just weren’t as good.

I’d go dark if I could but my friends would tell me anyway.

So what do you guys think. This will be the 4th map out of 10 shown. Should it be the last? Should all be shown before launch? What do you guys think?

I remember for halo 3 that bungie just showed a pic of each map with a title and short description. I think 343 may do that for the remaining maps.

Now, that would be interesting… Don’t know, some surprise would be nice

They can show as much MM as they want, but no Campaign reveals at all :slight_smile:

In my opinion it would be better if they show most of the maps before the release. I really want to know what I am buying…

This

You wanna keep the build up for both campaigns till the very end.

Maybe 1 or 2 more but not all, knowing everything kinda spoils the game when it comes out.

Amen to that my brutha! I would love to see pics and a little description of each map before November but if they don’t do that, I won’t be bothered.

How about concept art for every mm map? Nope too much? I don’t care, I couldn’t stay dark even if I wanted and would read anything they released.

Yeah, some surprises for MP would be nice. I think gameplay mechanics, such as jump height, run speed, AA cool downs, should be shown as much as possible in order to get as much feedback as possible. If something is OP or there’s a bug/glitch of some sort then 343i should be trying to catch as many as possible before launch.

I know there was one bug where if you activated the thruster pack whilst you had the mobility/speed boost ordinance drop and you hit a piece of scenery, such as a wall, then you’d, well, blow up. It’s been fixed though.

But some of the maps, and maybe some weapons and vehicles, should be kept a secret so there’s that feeling of discovery when you first play the game.

Same.

I’ll try to stay away from direct campaign spoilers… and that should be easy if they continue to focus on multiplayer. Nothing that spoils the story.
