Man I am so freakin tired right now. I'm getting old! I don't play H3 for the past few weeks to get ready for my move into my new place and I jump into Bungie vs. The World playlist and end up laying till like 4AM right after I get the 360 set up. :lol
Man now I'm never gonna find which boxes hold my clean clothes today! LOL :lol
BTW, Longshore looks cool with its double decked outer platforms.

Can't wait to see how they fuck up Midship. If they can fuck up Lockout like they did, all bets are off.

Just noticed this on bungie.net:
I posted one up a bit, but the last batch from my renewal this morning:
It's Busted: I climb into a tank that suddenly doesn't work so well. Turned out to be the safest place to hide for a moment.
You're Mined: I did a picture post on this one a while back, but it's still one of my favorite moments.
Happy Hog: Sort of a companion to the first one. Someone wants my 'hog, and I was happy to let him have it.
Nothing spectacular in the above, just moments that made me laugh.
One year of Bungie Pro is 750 Microsoft Points. Additional minute packs (10 render minutes each) cost 100 Microsoft Points (coming soon!).
Seems reasonable to me. A couple packs and I'll have my saved clip backlog worked off. I posted one up a bit, but the last batch from my renewal this morning:

Hah, thinking on your toes there.GhaleonEB said:
Has anyone attempted to solve the puzzle on Bungie? It takes a little bit to get, but if you paid attention in English class you should be fine.
Is anyone playing right now? I need a 4 man team to go into the playlist with. I don't want to be lonesome.

After playing 30 straight fucking minutes of Multi Flag on Colonnade I can accurately say that not only is it a terrible map but it is the worst map that I have ever played on. Shishka, you have outdone yourself by allowing this utter piece of shit into the Bungie Day playlist. My hatred for you has increased tenfold.

GAF: We want more community maps you asshole!
Shishka: Here's a playlist of community maps taken from the most promising of those that met the fairly rigorous Atlas submission standards.
GAF: OMG these maps suck you asshole!
Backflip, stop posting right after playing. Or take a sedative. It might do ya some good.

Every map is pretty decent and fun to play (some more than others), and this playlist definitely kicks ass with a massive collection of community maps making a matchmaking debut. A community playlist definitely needs to be in regular rotation.GhaleonEB said:
That said, Colonnade is an abomination. I'm pretty sure Satan himself forged the map from the fires of Hell and snuck it in the playlist somehow.

meh too much AR starts, in that shitty excuse for a playlist, I woulda just picked the best H2 remakes threw them in a playlist AR/BR starts. See I made a better list in 10 seconds.
Well too many people in that playlist, If Bungie ever wants to rematch then lets set it up, but until then your win was just a sham and you know it.

Have you played Colonnade? Honestly, I don't think that you can shush me before you play it. The level design is horrid and even looking toward the center structure slows my box down so much so that I can't even aim or shoot. It's ridiculous how anyone even considered putting the map in the playlist.GhaleonEB said:
That said, I enjoy most of the maps in the playlist. The only map that I really abhor is Colonnade. Perhaps one of the most surprisingly fun maps was Stonehenge. I really had low hopes for it but it turned out to be quite fun with BR starts.
This playlist is such a waste of time. The only people who will even get the chance to play Bungie are people on the West Coast and close to Washington. I've spent the last 2 hours playing and I can't help but feel that I could have done something much more constructive with my time.
And I have to disagree with some of you; all of the maps I've played are terrible and I think its safe to assume that the others are of a similar quality. I would have preferred standard maps and gametypes or at the very least proven Sandbox variants. Foundry could be pulled entirely from Halo 3 matchmaking for all I care.

We played Colonnade back to back too, and while the first time was pretty horrible, the second game was an epic stalemate that ended with a flag race to both bases (that we lost). It's by no means the worst map in the playlist. Favourite that I've played so far is Chimera.

Maps look so beautiful; really excited for September (although I'm sure the maps won't be the only thing in my mind come September 
).
Anyways, I found this video from N4G. Apparently a Bungie employee, Will, is an animator on Reach right now and posted his animation demo reel on YouTube for everyone to see. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean the animations you see in the video are exactly what they'll be like in Reach, but it's safe to assume there will be some similarities.
Edit: Fuck, he removed it! Guess he R got caught. :lol

Cllonade is the worst map ever forged on this earth. It's God awful. Whoever designed that shithole deserves to be shot a buried with Hitler. I must have the worst luck also, as I only played like 7 different maps (3 times on Collonade) in the 3 hours that I have been playing. I thought there wer elike 30 maps in the playlist?
There are way too many AR start games in the rotation aswell. Community forged maps seem to put a shitton of power ups and power weapons, but fail to place more than 4 BRs on a map. WTF?
As for the new maps with ODST, I can't wait to play Longshore. It seems to give me a big Headlong vibe. Not that it looks like it, but the possibility to have vehicle battles and CQC will be great. Midship remake is cool, can't say that I loved the original, but it was good. Citadel looks really boring. Looks like the Elevator parts in The Ark. Very blah.

And I recall Ram complaining a lot about Halo 3 and matchmaking back when he used to play. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
Dude, you come in here every few months and tell us how burnt out you are of Halo and yet you still play. You're fatigued, we get it. I hate a lot of the decisions made by Bungie for MM, but I am not burnt out on the game by any means.

There's another thread? You guys gotta tell me when there are other important things on the GAF. As far as I know, this is the only thread that exists.
Bungie Pro info
Overpriced. 100 points per render point? Get real. They need to find a better way of doing this shit if it really costs them that much to render a video.
Ghaleon, if you invest in these points I'll never forgive you.
