Halo 3 FNF: Some Information For Yous

So, Bungie has put out these maps, right? They're overpriced and some people don't feel like buying them knowing that they'll be free some time this spring. It's not about being cheap, it's about having a brain. Something in which I lack (I bought them day one).

The problem with these maps is that some people have them and won't shut the fuck up about playing them, and others don't. Then comes this awkward decision of having to continue playing original maps or excluding some people by playing the new ones. And when you have someone like 007 or Heretic who whine until you want to smash the controller into your face, it gets pretty bad.

So here's the skinny, guys. I'm going to split this shit into two sections. One half of the night we'll play the original maps that come on the disc, and the other half we'll play the DLC maps. It's the easiest way to alleviate this problem without having to split it into two really small rooms. However, if we get enough people to warrant two rooms, than that'd be fantastic.

I also have to mention that the first half will be games that require more strategy and teamwork. We'll be doing your standard death match and objective game-types. Things will range from team SWAT to just regular old games. We'll have one sided objective games and two sided ones.

We'll also do some zombie games. I've never played the pirates game-type. And the Antlion level is fantastic.

Remember that the games will start at around 9 PM Eastern and around 6 PM Pacific. Send me a message that says "FNF" on XBOX Live and I'll add you to my list.

Thanks to Macca for the suggestions.

Also note that my recaps will be a lot better than before with screenshots and a lot more details about the night. I'm still trying to find a pretty decently priced USB capture card to record film. If any of you guys have suggestions, please link me.

P.S.

If you have any maps or games that you'd like to play please put them in your file share, or send them to me directly. A link for it on Bungie.com is also accepted.

Check my fileshare for some great maps. Onslaught, a custom map adopted by MLG, is a great small CTF map. I have a really good Chill Out remake and a few other good ones.

Also, I think it would be crazy not to play some Grifball tonight. That playlist is STUPID FUN and I typically hate non-traditional gametypes.

Whoa, you mean I'm not the only one that doesn't have new maps? I was pretty sure I wasn't the only one annoyed by the bitching, though.

I was fully intending on playing Grifball, Panda. And I'm grabbing that stuff of your file share now.

No, I didn't have the maps either until about a week ago. Then I bought them so I could play with these bastards and by the time they were done downloading they didn't even play them. I've been having some fun with foundry though. So, it worked out.

I didn't have the maps either and I just got tired of the whining last time I was on, so I left. Hopefully with a schedule in place, we can get actually get in a few matches this time.

Just a reminder to check out Ninja Virus if you get a chance.

Also, CoD4 would totally laser Halo 3 if it were an option.

I have it saved. It's on my list of gametypes to play. Is there a special map to play it on, or is it universal?

@ 007

Begging for new maps when it's not time will get you booted.

All those funky game-types like Rocket Race, Zombies, and Grifball will be played.

:D
