I’d like to say that so far, I’ve been consistently disappointed by Halo 2: Anniversary.
All of the remakes being maps that have been remade before, the terminals focusing on Thel instead of answering (and creating) new questions, COME ON.
Seriously?

The 343 seal of poor decisions. Often imitated, never duplicated.

Ascension was remade as a Forge map in Halo: Reach, not a brand new map like Halo 2: Anniversary. I’m slightly annoyed about Coag being redone because Blood Gulch, Coagulation, Valhalla and Ragnarok are all essentially the same map but hey, people like it.
As for the terminals - you have NO IDEA what they will contain. There is a ton of room for backstory with the Arbiter and that is what they will be doing.

Yes but these maps are top tier to most

Doesn’t matter. The same stuff all the time becomes old, stale, and dull.

I joined round-about the time of the Gameinformer leak of 2012. Ohohohohoho that was something. I don’t think anything could replicate the amount of arguing back then. It was pretty hectic, too. Damn.
Costa Rica vs. Netherlands.
Bring it on.

Bleh, we’re gonna have over 100maps anyhow

So I take it you didn’t see the end of the panel ?
Because that Terminal preview had me posting question marks all over the place

I REALLY wonder who will win…

Well Costa Rica have been playing quite well but I think the Netherlands will win just.
I feel like I’m the only one not excited for gun-geese. To me it sort of defeats the purpose of having a player ride on the back.
As for Coagulation getting a remake… well there’s now more version of Blood Gulch in the MCC than there are full games (counting Valhalla and Rag)… Great…

I joined sometime in January, didn’t start posting until around the time of the GI leak though. Ahh, the bitter sprint or no-sprint arguments… or really, just the bitter arguments. Not that it’s changed a whole lot, there are simply less people around to argue.

Blood Gulch, Coagulation, Valhalla, Ragnarok and Coagulation Anniversary.
Five versions of the same map. It really does suck

Yup. I can understand them wanting to remake lockout or another map that’s been remade, say midship, because they were popular… But we really don’t need 5 versions of the same “Two bases in a canyon” design…
Would have preferred waterworks or something equally deserving.
On another note, just watched the RTX H2A Ascension video… I’m liking the new look and some of the changes though.
> Holy damn, dat terminal trailer.
Oooooh snap, Arby, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
EDIT: And, is it just me, or is RTX revealing more info than E3…?

Your last point has a lot of truth behind it.
Who here knows when ONI Section-3 was established?
I have the date “modern” ONI in the Halo Universe began operating. But there is no mention on either the Halopedia or the Wiki stating the date of the sub-sections of ONI.
If there is a known date I need it for a project I’m doing. Not absolutely imperative - but it will go along better if I have the date of establishment.

True, but there are plenty of other maps in Halo 2 that are just as good that haven’t been remade before.
To be pessimistic, I’m going to predict that the last two maps will be Midship and Ivory Tower.
I am over-joyed with the news. I can not wait to see the Forge maps that come out of the new blood gulch.
