  1. 1. Post your Gamer Tag 2. Name of your map and a link to it 3. Name of your gametype and a link to it 4. Brief description and recommended player count 5. Provide at least one picture GT- Baconshelf Name- Mining Station 4-3 Link GT- Regular Infinity slayer MS 4-3 Is an asymmetrical map set inside an underground mining station. The map is ideal for 4vs4 all the way to 8v8 but is also set up for a third team (Gold, specifically) for multi-team battles. The weapons on the map are a Rocket launcher, Sniper Rifle (x2), an Energy Sword and a Railgun. (One thing already acknowledged by me, but will change after recieved feedback is the railgun respawning.) there are also loadout weapons in ordnance drops (Will be replaced with actual ordnance power weapons) Notable vent, with grav lift that works Noted issues with weapons will be fixed after recieving feedback.
  2. Looks amazing- continuing from Siks advice, I started a Last Resort on Reach and ended with a mix of both but none at the same time!
  3. I would say that the rise in CoD and Battlefield style 'realistic' military shooters has definitely taken over the games market. I believe part of the reason (PARTPARTPART NOTE THE PART) is that this means More people playing Military=less people knowing or willing to know about sci fi, fantasy and other styles of game in general. Say someone has seen their older brother playing CoD, they would be inclined to play that. Now then they would tell their friends about CoD, all of which would buy it. Over time, less people have even heard of games like Halo, Mass Effect and GoW until eventually, non-military shooters (Aren't there only like, two big ones anyway?) are more heard of and generally known about. For example- FIFA and CoD are big at my school, when asked about what I do at home, I replied "play halo, draw, read books, watch Family Guy" to get the response "Isn't halo the one where you're a robot or something?" at which point I facepalmed. I said it was an alien shooter set 500 years in the future and all I got was "That sounds gay." Science fiction is just generally not even considered in anything by society anymore. *I am not denying the fact that many fans don't like 4 (I loved it) but most people (where I live) haven't even heard of the series, and the amount of people who have is dropping)
  4. Who else thinks it's amazing that my mathmatics coursework is to play Halo 4? My maths teacher is the best! (If you don't understand, I have to play halo 4 and get some data from it for homework)

      I once had a research paper on Halo 4, but my teachers never explicitly told me to play it.

      Oh. As for me, Campaign is not only the game mode I'm best at, but apparently the source of my skill. If I go too long without Campaign, but I play the other modes anyway, I will still begin to get rusty. Campaign seems to keep me in shape for Halo.

  5. "Eagle, new info- a Covenant air depot near the east bridge to the mainland- Scarab and Chief headed that way, I'll leave the rest up to you. From the reports I'm getting, some Falcons and Hawks are already in hot engagement. Reports of at least one Lich accompanied by squadrons of Vampires and Banshees. Should be a nice little challenge for you."
  6. After stepping out of the freezing cold shower- unnaturally cold, even for a military campus- Jacob donned fatigues and made his way to the mess hall. Immediately realising he hadn't eaten for over 12 hours, he picked up anything he could without looking. He over heard his russian friend and a big guy talking, something about cake. Of course, cake wouldn't be unwelcome right then. He sat down before looking at the unappetising mess before him; eggs, mashed potato, chocalate sauce and mushrooms with some slightly overburnt moa fillets on the side. Lovely he thought as he picked up a spoon and began figuring out how to tackle this concoction. He noticed some of the other recruits looking at him, some smiling, some quizzical. He would have to eat it now, for sake of not looking foolish. He tried picking up a piece of black Moa, dipped it in the egg-potato-chocolate mixture before eating it. He noticed the watchers laghing to themselves or looking ill. On the contrary, he thought this tastes preety good.
  7. Can I unwrap it? Halo 4 was fun, especially the Ro Sham Bo!
  8. Especially painful when using mod maps to get around stupid item limits and budget. It seems as though Halo 4's forge has a much smaller limit than Reach though. At least 3 actually said "You can only have 640 objects"
  9. Pulling up a holo map of the area and the position the convoy was in, he selected multiple areas. He finally saw one stand out, a munitions depot near the elavator. "Three Charlie, we have a supply and munitions depot and a large military production site nearby. Reach the desired courtyard, we can lift in some troops to lock it down. Then move on to the park, feel free to scavenge any annoying and supplies you need. HUD should be updated with markers.... Now. Ivan, Kyro, divert course- assist Three Charlie in clearing the areas- I imagin they wouldn't refuse some fire support."
  10. Of course it will be exclusive. Microsoft will never let go of halo.
  11. The Captain managed to down the approaching alien, sword drawn with a shotgun shell. One group of stealth Elites had slipped into yhe base unnoticed. He quickly took cover, keying his radio. "Ivan, Kyro DO NOT ENGAGE, repeat do not engage. Word is that the Chief's on that mofo. Don't want to spoil all the fun for the Spartan now do we? Roger request Three Charlie, bring them in. One if our Pelicans is en-route to provide fire support and dream attention. If we get the helljumpers in, we can assault the carrier." He replied, looking up at the colossal ship hovering above the city near the elevator. Strange how it could easily decimate the entire force here but chose not to. He then broadcast over the company frequency; "Marines, I think its time to expand our border. The street leading out of here is littered with debris and opens into an intersection which will be vital for ferrying troops around. I want the Scorpion and Mantid in front supported by Helljumpers for protection. Clear the sector, and the next reinforcements will help set up defences." He nodded to the four pelicans, keying three to dust off. One immediately began its way almost opposite to the other two, which would be bringing supplies into the next staging area. The Cobra began to unpack, readying itself to provide support for the convoy. It felt good to be on the offensive again.
  12. [Think as though you are writing a story though, what grammar and language would you use?]
  13. It's supposed to be Aperture Science logo, copypastas from the Internet.

Just a test to see if something worked- a text picture, that's all
  15. A machete was originally useable in pre-Xbox halo. That would be pretty fun, that way we can finally have a human equivalent. No katana or knife.
  16. All of them, given the choice. Realistically, and for practical reasons, these are ones I would paticularly like back. AR(MA5B 60 round clip) Pistol(H4) BR Carbine Needle Rifle Plasma Rifle SMG/Silenced (loved that thing) Forerunner weapons, full stop. Sentinel beam included. Halo 3 minigun(rotary barrel) Scarab gun (H2) Plasma pistol Repeater Needler All grenades Brute shot Concussion rifle (Reach version that actually did something) SAW Shotgun Railgun Rocket Laser Fuel rod Plasma launcher Sticky det or... ...Grenade launcher Hammer Plasma cannon FLAMETHROWER!!!!!!!!!1!!!11!!!! One!!!!! Eleven!!!!! Sword Knife(useable) Machete (Pre Xbox Halo) Missile pod Maybe joking about a scarab gun The AR is getting a slight damage boost but shorter range BR / Carbine will take one less hit to kill DMR ROF and range lowered to make other weapons feasible. TU 's only affect mm, not customs, forge, campaign and SO.
  17. EA are scrapping online passes And if its down to 343/H4 vs Bungie/ CE-3 argument, that is incredibly stupid. I will always buy halo for the story. **** multiplayer, don't care about it anyway
  18. Backwards compatibility for arcade and discs has been confirmed with an add on seperately available weeks ago.
  19. [it needs to be third person, he, she, they. Speech marks "" are used for speech. Try that post again.] Jacob woke. He was looking at a blank, grey ceiling. He looked at the clock. 6:30AM Earth time, 6:45 Reach Time. He guessed he had about 15 minutes before they were called to the drill grounds. He tried to find the source of his awakening, before realising it was the recruit opposite him snoring. "Great" he thought, rolling over and pretending to sleep until he was needed.
  20. "Coordinates transmitting now, east of command centre. I have markers on Ivan and Kyros commandeered vehicles, you'll want to avoid blasting them, Wraiths, if get out of there, we have a Longsword on its way to blow the depot out of the ground." He said with a grin, happy to be on the offensive.
  21. Yeah, if you post, we aren't gonna slag you off or anything, we love new people joining so we will help improve or give suggestions on what can make it better. In other words- if you want to post an app, don't be afraid!
  22. Yes, ordnance, crates (on normal physics), weapons and vehicles are the only way I could see it work- no AI placement in itself.
  23. Well done! I love the idea of your testing nights(even if I'm asleep then ) which I feel could really benefit the community!
  24. "Glad to have you back, intel spotted about an hour ago that there was a makeshift Wraith repair and Refuel depot. I'm sure the amount of plasma batteries there would make a very, very nice explosion. Catch my meaning?" Asked the NCO, as a black silhouette blasted the descending dropship." That should leave them without most of their armour." He continued, grinning at the prospect of cutting off all support the covvies could muster on the ground.
