New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
I just read up on this (bungie.net) and it says 4 new maps are comming out April 28th.
Aparently the Bonus pack is free, but theres 2 other maps you have to play for (5.95) or you cant download them till june.
What kind of bullshit is this? Am i reading this wrong? We have waited months for bonus material and we have to pay for it?

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
no you read it right, in actualality, you will pay for the maps. i read that they were gonna charge 14.95 for the second released maps. or you could buy the whole thing for 20 bucks. option 3 is of course wait until june and get em for free. option 4 is steal it off your friends xbox if you can :P

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
Thats total bullshit, why am i paying for new maps? I already bought the game and they said there would be content download. Thats just fucking great, another rip-off.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
Just wait like 2 months and all the maps will be free. :)

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
I dont wana, they should be free in the first place.
its the principal of the thing, you dont charge for map downloads, its not ethical.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
regardless, go check red vs blue. They've got a walkthrough of one of the maps up now.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2

Seems the principal and ethics were tossed out the window and it's all about the $$$. Bet this is a practice that will soon be a standard. :frusty:

hopefully developers believe active mod comunities are healthier for the industry than doing this on the PC.
i bet over 50% of half-life and battlefield sales were to play the mods, and now publishers are getting even more money with the likes of trauma studios under their wing

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
I wonder what Xbox Live will be like when some people have the extra maps and some people don't.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
i wish stand-by still worked
-
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
sigh, the future of gaming is not looking to be promising...
-
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
primary stand-by still works, just not as long as it used 2
as far as i know secondary doesnt work anymore

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
cheating , using a modem that has a stand-by butten on it
-
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
so waht does it do? cause lag so people can't target you?
-
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
primary stand-by is when your the host of the game, and you hit it and everyone in the server gets lag and cant move but you.
Secondary Stand-by (that doesnt work anymore) is where your not the host and you push it and your body stays still to everyone else, but on your screen your moving so u can go get the flag with out anyone even seeing you.
add me gamertag= twist3r and i will show u primary if you want

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
the new maps look great i will say. alot of the bungie community isnt happy about paying for the new content, but you have to "pay to play" anyway with xbox. besides it's microsoft, did you really think you'd get something for nothing?
twister, you little standby whore you :p lol jk. i gotta learn how to do the new rocket cancel lunge. i saw a vid of it, looks ridiculous, but still works.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
fine by me, highest i ever got was 15 anyway in team slayer.
-
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
No i will not pay because:
A) i refuse to pay for something that should be free
B) its not my credit card and i do not feel like asking my parents to waste 6$ on something that should be free.

Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
