Eans Vadum Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 What should Halo 6 do and what should it not do to be successful with many players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi1176 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 At this point I have no idea, I think we need to focus on Halo 5 as it is still in its early stages and things will be changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Alright I have an idea, no REQ packs. I'd rather pay for my map packs than have a system that entirely cheapens everything and ruins half the point of the game in my opinion, progression. Besides, I've been having a look at the Forge maps 343 have been showing and they look like actual maps for once so why do we need 343 to give us maps when the maps we build ourselves look almost as good?

Caboose The Ace Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Because we can't have idiotic maps made by people with half a brain in matchmaking now can we? Why so negative? You remember Halo Reach right? That game later in its life cycle had a lot of community made maps but in matchmaking and you know what they are not half bad and were actually really well made. There are some talented Forgers in the Halo community who are just as talented as those who made the Forge maps in Halo 5. (Since a lot of Halo 5 maps are Forge created) So be optimistic about things because there are talented people out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, and its a great thing. It also makes 343 kinda pointless at the same time but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Can I point out a certain map made by 343 has horrendous spawn camping in it too? Cough Orion Cough Lol, you are dumb if you think Orion is terrible on spawn camping. You haven't played the game's multiplayer, so you wouldn't even know which map is terrible! It's Pegasus... Rig taking second place. I do, and its a great thing. It also makes 343 kinda pointless at the same time but whatever. Not pointless, it's called getting involved with the community. Unlike most companies. Edited November 8, 2015 by Fishy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStarRocket91 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 It's certainly true that a lot of the Forge maps which have made their way into matchmaking over the years have been garbage. But that said, there have been an awful lot of really terrible regular maps, too: Reach had some really atrocious maps in its pool in terms of things like Boardwalk, Sword Base and Reflection, while Halo 4 had garbage like Abandon, Daybreak and Shatter. And bear in mind, these kind of regular maps can't simply be tweaked with a few Forge edits, so they either have to be pulled from the map pool altogether (reducing variety), left in (creating frustration), or rebuilt, which takes time during which we have to put up with one of the first two anyway and then might be broken again. Now while there's no denying that a lot of Forge maps are pretty poor, there are an awful lot of them which aren't. There are always going to be a few really terrible maps which make it into matchmaking (I'm still angry that the person who designed The Cage and Uncaged was paid rather than euthanised), but there are also a lot of really fantastic maps which did: some of my all-time favourite maps have been products of Forge, such as Synapse, which was not only well-balanced and exciting to play but also managed to be incredibly good looking as well. On this very site we have an entire Forge section in which people can show off their creations - and while yes, some of them are pretty poor, a lot of them are fun, fair, and competitive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike most companies. Orion does have bad spawn camping though and a lot of exploits that amaze me that 343 didn't see them during testing. Every gaming company interacts with the gaming community, just do different extents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
