RTX - Halo 4- NEW MAPS!

It's booooring around here!

RTX is next weekend in Austin, Texas. Certain Affinity is in Austin too. 343i is going to be at RTX.

As some of you might have caught on the RTX website, we’ll be hosting a panel at the event called What’s Next: Halo 4 Summer 2013. I’ll be joining Frank, bs angel, Graeme Jennings, and more as we discuss some of the updates and plans that we have for this summer. If you’ll be at the event, we’ll see you from 1 to 2 PM CDT in the Main Ballroom. If you attend, you’ll be eligible to participate in our in-person Halo 4 Free-For-All tournament, as well as eligible to pre-register for the brackets on-site as early as Friday morning. Keep an eye on Waypoint next week for more details regarding RTX!

Time to speculate on what, if anything, may be announced for Halo 4. There will be something but what?

Speculate away. :)

The obvious pick for me is a Map pack.

I thought about a new Forge Map but unless it has a hugely new object palette, it wouldn't serve any purpose. I offer one exception, a Covenant Forge map.

New gametypes. I.E. Race.

- This would be cool to see, deep purple Covie items or at least some new objects to use on Forge Island.

And assault variants (1-bomb, neutral, etc), and 1-flag, and territories, and stockpile.

You keep saying it, I keep telling you why its a bad idea, and it never gets through.  That's a good amount of time, money, and resources spent, remaking maps that we've had in previous titles that could, and especially at this point, should be spent making the new game.  Sure, you or I, if we ruled 343/Microsoft, would just hire more people to remake the maps for every game after, but we don't have MBAs, we're not all that smart, and our shareholders would cut our balls off.

 

So cut that shit out.

Look what they did the Halo CEA "campaign"  so it's not impossible to be remade and they'd probably outsource it anyways to save money so it wouldn't be a waste of time as long as there's $$ to be made and since people would buy them it would be a win win

Meh.  Just let it go.  It'd be nice to have something like that announced for the 4th DLC, but don't hold your breath.

Oh I'm not holding my breath for it  because it probably won't happen , I'm just thinking where I've heard people say they'd love a  remake it  would be easier to give us maps from H1 ,H2, & H3 rather then create an entire game 

 

@Deep Oh I know..lol

I'd love to see them bring back all the old maps, because most of these new maps wouldn't make the rotation.  They don't want the specter of old Halo hanging over their heads, and if you compare this game's maps to previous ones, you'd see that the current offerings, while better than Reach's, aren't on par with any of the three titles before that.

 

They're moving onto the next title, for better or for worse.  Shouldn't (non-specific) you?  With that being said, I wouldn't put a Halo 2 remake past them for the Xbone, after Halo 5 comes out, much like they did for CE. Hell, would it even be possible?  I know they talk about cloud computing and how they can't have backwards-capability because the emulator would end up eating too many resources.

Probably you should be on the lookout for something on this Legendary Slayer. I have no info on what that might be other than it's been teased for months.

From Frankie:

map pack with mode some bonus content is only six bucks. Not ten. Ten is everything for the lazy.

TU adds new code changes to answer that question. Ricochet goes into general matchmaking for everyone after two weeks and is tied to pitfall for first two weeks. Make sense?
