Popular Post RedStarRocket91 Posted December 1, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 As of today, I'm very pleased to be able to make several announcements, including another addition to our affiliates, a brand new member group, and not one, but TWO new competitions! Our first announcement is a brand new partnership with one of the most exciting projects in the Halo fandom: Installation 01. The project team is composed of a number of long-time Halo fans including our own Community Moderator Church, and is determined to bring the Halo experience back to the PC scene, and in addition to reporting all the latest news and updates on the project, we'll also be providing their official discussion forums once the game moves into Beta: you can check out what they're all about, in their own words, in the tags below: Installation 01 is a fan made Halo game exclusively for the PC. We have a talented group of members working to bring a modern Halo experience to the PC community. With a full fledged campaign, and competitive multiplayer, we plan to deliver a great experience to the Halo community.The Installation 01 team is headed by TheChunkierBean and will be free of charge to download. http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/38703-installation-01-a-new-halo-game-for-pc/ Installation 01 is fantastic news for anyone who's been yearning for the return of Halo on the PC, and we're incredibly excited to be partnering up with them - we hope you'll welcome our newest affiliates, and that you'll join us in our adventure toward the future of Halo on PC. Next is the introduction of a brand new 343industries.org Forge Group, to complement our updated Forge sections: in addition to producing special maps for our future Community Events, plus hints and tips for map creation, they'll be producing a regular map spotlight feature, showcasing the very best submissions to our Forge sections. We'll be looking to expand this group over the coming weeks, so if you've ever wanted to be a part of the staff here on the site and you've got what it takes to Forge some truly incredible experiences, this is your chance - but for now, please give your congratulations to our Forge Group's first two cartographers, Maestro and Zandril! In addition to their regular duties, our new Forge Group is also going to be involved with the first of our two upcoming site competitions. It's been a very long time since the last one, but I'm delighted to be able to report the proud return of our forum Forge-offs with our inaugural Halo 2: Anniversary Forge Contest! Getting involved is simple: all you need to do is create a 2v2 map in our newest Forge engine, and post it here for us to marvel at. There are site awards, a place in a special submission gallery, and of course glory to be won, so if you're interested in taking part, simply head over to our submission thread, read the rules, and start building!This first contest ties directly into the second, as we announce the return of competitive tournament Halo for the masses! February 2015 marks the opening of our 2v2 Halo 2: Anniversary contest, and will feature the winning maps from our Forge competition. We'll have more details and a sign-up thread once Forge submissions close, but for now, choose your partners and pick up your Battle Rifles, and get ready for a challenge! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooliest Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Great Scotts! Good news everyone! Cant wait to get my grubby little sausage fingers on the beta for Ins 01. It looks amazing and it's been a blast keeping up with it in the thread as it progresses. Also congrats to our new staff member Maestro! Unfortunately for Zandril though... he got demoted to Trusted Members instead. Sorry buddy.... maybe next year. Lol but seriously he's trusted. All jokes aside and when that bug gets fixed it'll be great to have the two of you in the warm embrace of staff. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger Intel Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Aawww yeeaaah. Congrats Zan and Maestro-san. The upcoming 2v2 competition seems like a great replacement for the previous '2v2 inter-site competition' that was announced around the beginning of this year. Looking forward to everything!
