I would really like it if Hang 'em High came back. I miss the good old days where you'd get 8 people and have a huge CTF with rockets. Good times....

I love Hang 'Em High so much.

I hate Rockets/Heavy weapon sets.

It's just weird playing with lawlrocketz nubs. I'd rather play normal weapons.

Me = nub

No need to tell us what we already believe

Hangemhigh is such a great map that I don't want it ruined in halo2...

My insight as a gamer:

I hope they don't remake any Halo 1 maps. Think about it. The more remakes of H1>H2 they do, the less H1>H3 remakes they will do. Personally I want to see the Halo 1 maps in H3's Hi-def looks. I say all new maps.

My insight as a modder:

I hope we (as modders) don't get a hold of the maps. All it means is more Halo 2 XBL cheating, and more crap like that. I want these maps to be all un-modded. I haven't actually seen that many mods with the new maps that are out now anyways.

Modding does not always mean cheating.

Getting hold of the new maps?
My thought is that they will install to the same location as the others...so naturally it'd be easy to get out hands on it...But I still hope theres improved cheater control (they've been hinting at updating it and thats probably the time...or at least just before hand)

Yeah...and if they do create new patch_3.lvls or whatever like Scotty was saying, it might get rid of cheating. Also, not a lot of people have, or know how to mod a 360.

From what I see (I don't have a 360) its pretty darn easy to access what you need...And then theres mimesis 360 >_>

Sadly, it's as easy as going to a game store and buying a product to access the files.

Do you think later after the first release the will release these maps on disc for only the 360?

will these maps be compatable w/ xbox??? by that i mean even if we do get the maps off the 360 and add them to the mm is there any garantee they will work?

I made it once, back when I has just discovered how to make custom emblems, shortly before posting the tutorial. Check it out if you'd like to make it.

Well here's my opinion on the new maps.

1 Should be A popular halo 1 map. I'm hoping Hang Em' High or Sidewinder. Those are the only halo 1 maps I've only ever played.
The other maps should have something new in each. I'm hoping one map that is like a map of mountains. Bungie hasn't done that yet. Another map should be covenant and I'm thinking a map similar to midship, with a new map layout. I'm saying a huge covenant map with lifts and teleporters.

GametagAeonFlux · Post by **GametagAeonFlux** » Thu Nov 16, 2006 5:34 pm

So a larger Gemini?

Isn't that Gemini only bigger?

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Thu Nov 16, 2006 5:37 pm

The game could use more Covenant maps, I wouldn't mind seeing a new one.

GametagAeonFlux · Post by **GametagAeonFlux** » Thu Nov 16, 2006 5:38 pm

I don't think we've seen any outdoor Covenant maps...they've all been indoors...maybe they could do something like that?
