Halo 4 Thread.

Absolutely true. Lots of people grabbed them at no cost. Myself and Phaethon both can confirm that.

I have to imagine these guys must do something for LE and map pack dudes now... I mean... come on.

Well i just do not find them very interesting, maybe because i was tired.

I haven't tried them yet. I will eventually. I'm not really that strongly motivated.

and have no idea the fuck why.

Phaethon has a term for it. It's called "Brand Hos."

Harvest is the best new map, and that's only because it has 3 rocks ideal for camping. Sitting on these rocks gives you the perfect perch to kill people with the DMR without fear of reprisal.

Wreckage would be alright if it didn't have so many places that look like entrances that are just dark shadows of a wall, or places that you think you can jump up but can't.

Shatter should be renamed Shitter.

In short I would be very upset if I'd paid for these maps.

Uh.. it appears if you've entered the specialization code, Halo 4 seems to be giving the Crimson Map Pack out to people for free.

Oooh boy. People who don't get this for free are going to be sorta pissed. People who paid for it are going to be pissed too. I'm going to sit back and laugh. :D

I guess I'll check out the new maps after all.

I remember when everyone got into Beta for Reach and it no longer mattered what you pre ordered

well.. that's pretty much it, my arsehole is sore from the recent halo madness.

But if i'm a whore i doubt i would see its flaws, same with reach, love the game, but so many fucking flaws.. starting with Armour abilitys, if you play the ani maps there amazing fun.. because all the shit is turned off.

That's not really the same thing. Those betas are never actually locked to pre-orders. They just guarantee access. I don't think that's quite the same as paid content.

I mean sure, people were still pissed, but that's because they're stupid. It's like people who actually bought MoHW for the BF4 beta. There will absolutely be alternative access.

Wait.. I just read that Digital Extremes made the Crimson Map Pack. Is that true? I thought Certain Affinity were the only other developer.

How much other stuff is/was/will be farmed out?

I mean.. Digital Extremes.. hah!

Halo.

Is there only like 6 people at 343i? i imagine there all management there and no one else.

And why would you farm out one of the most important aspects of a Halo game? also.. why not farm it out to Bungie..

This farming it out probally explains why there is next to fuck all innovation in MP and why SP screams of sexual moistness..

Still i wish 343i would take notice of us in the forums, it saddens me how ignorant they are.

Ha. 343 is claiming they intended to give everyone free access to the Crimson Maps. I like how they mention this "program" without ever providing any details of what it would include to anyone. Good backtrack MS PR.

As an additional reward to those customers that participated in our "14 Day, Buy and Play" program (which ran from Nov. 6 – Nov. 20), we are providing complimentary access to the Crimson Map Pack for a limited time, through Tuesday, December 18 at 9am UTC/GMT.

There were some initial complications with the distribution of the "14 day, Buy and Play" reward tokens, and so we decided to provide the additional reward of complimentary access to the Crimson Map Pack, for a limited time, as a "thank you" to our customers that contributed to the success of the "Halo 4" launch.

Oh and if you didn't read that then you won't have access to the maps on the 18th. If they can get that right. I won't miss these maps.

You still get the maps! Everyone just got to play them for free for more than a week. And some avatar items! Aaannddd.....a book! That's $50 worth of value right there alone gotdamn.

a book lol did you read the "book"
Avatar items.. nothing like that souless peice of shit staring at you when you boot up the xbox, i bought the halo armour so i did not have to look at him anymore.

Point is seems to be that the standard launch day version has all the goodies the LE version had, shit if i knew this i would not of bought it.

To be fair ever since that Halo 3 legendary edition everything else has been shit in comparison.

Yeah, and I'm not really buying it. I want to see what happens on the 18th. I don't know if they even have the proper systems in place to repeal it from the users who already have it on their devices. And it's clearly a load of shit.

Right. This was a promotion. A promotion they did not tell anyone about. Including most of the folks at Microsoft. Ya know, all of those folks who flipped out on day one and said, "Oh, if you got it by mistake, it's on us!"

But ya know what gamers love? Being mislead. Spin. And I'm not kidding. We obviously love it. We eat that shit up.

I'm just hoping that after the 18th I won't have to see them in Infinity Slayer. Was unpleasantly surprised to see them outside of the Crimson DLC playlist.
