Re: ...That's it?

In Response To: Re: ...That's it? (Louis Wu) : I'm disappointed, Psychophan7. I don't have a problem with your criticism of : the interview (though I disagree with most of it) - but moaning that : Bungie's screwed up again somehow by making you wait until April is : beneath you. I should really try changing my stance on smilies. I was mostly joking with that part. Mostly meaning I think an action screenshot would be better; Instead of seeming static and boring, having people frozen in place seemingly in motion would show how the map can be played. I really just want an action screenshot to show me, someone who's never played Halo 1 MP, the chaotic fun people get nostalgic about. Having been in games, conversations, or the presence of them, and hearing people talk about how much fun they had on Hang 'Em High, Sidewinder, and Blood Gulch was akin to having to listen to women talk about shoes. The mind zones out until they ask what your favorite moments were; "I never played multiplayer on Halo 1," has been met with things such as kicked from the party, cries of "blasphemer!" and other sorts of damning actions to make me feel inferior for being a "Halo 2 bandwagon n00b," despite having played H1 SP. All standpoints I have of H1 maps come from a post-mortem run around looking at things from a hypothetical perspective: "This hallway would be death if someone had a shotgun," instead of the I've-played-this-map-before-experienced, "This hallway is never used." Basically, all I know about Sidewinder comes from what I've seen on Red vs Blue, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and that one movie that was inspired by a game the creator's had played on it. It's a poor reason, but reason enough to at least try to ask, "Hey, can you release some action screens so newcomers can see how to play on this?" Even if that's not what I said, I know that it's what the result was intended to be; I'm still working on how to better differentiate what I mean from what I say.
