Just walked around Riptide.  It's Fathom, thematically, with an entirely different layout.  It's basically a destroyed version of Fathom that washed up and filled with sand.  It's asymmetric and smaller: they opened some hallways up, blocked others, added some terrain, and redid the middle.

Uhhh...I mean 343 lied, people died.
Not washed up. The oceans evaporated.

Oh so it's like their version of normal working Midship and then crashed abandoned Midship.

Great. Their idea of a new map consists of opposites.

New maps? No.
Remixes? Yes.

So... I guess I'm going to have to pick up after your horrendous mistakes on here too?
Just did a custom game walkthrough of Riptide, and as expected, it's just a remix of an already-existing map. (It's sad of how this is 343's logic of new maps.)

Just curious of how more different 343 will make The Rig from its base version in the next update.

They announced the map would be a remix before it came out. I'm actually surprised to see so much protest over this. We've known since before the game came out, they'd be doing more remixes as DLC.

Anyway, I don't know what you're talking about The Rig remix. There's no remixes in the February update.

Meanwhile we're still missing the game modes the other Halo games managed to launch with, but who needs gamemodes when you can have weapon skins instead.

They're already fucking coming within the next month, calm your fucking tits already.
It still doesn't change 343 taking months to release already existing game modes when every Halo game since Halo 2 included them at launch. Bungie managed to release Halo 3 which launched on a new system just like Halo 5, but that game launched with all of Halo 2's game modes. There is no good reason why 343 didn't launch Halo 5 with the already existing gamemodes when Bungie manged to with Halo 3.

Well for whatever reason the game modes legitimately are not done.I don't know why Microsoft did that, they could have delayed the game and given MCC a chance to bounce back.

Even with forge, the reason It didn't come out on time is because they have literally 2 or 3 people actually working on it.

You can forge an almost exact remake of Sandtrap out of an empty space skybox, but yeah, no excuse whatsoever.

Pizza weapon skins and bringing back an old gun from a good Halo game is more important

I gotta admit. Getting a perfect shot medal with fries on my pistol feels pretty great.

The Halo 2 BR is technically the strongest BR in the game as it's four shot bursts instead of three.

Now I can literally enjoy melting on eye contact while half the population enjoys their luck based draw while I just sit here and furiously tug on my weiner over the number 12 I unlocked for an emblem from a gold pack.

I also remember paying $10 for maps that never showed up in matchmaking a week after release because no one else bought them.

Honestly I'd rather take that over what we have now. On release you play the map so much that after the first few days it becomes cancer to play on.

At least with DLC maps, when they came up, they were actually a welcome godsend and cherished joyfully instead of what happens now.

"Oh look, cancer."

Plenty of people did for Halo 2 and 3 from what I can remember.

Hey guys remember when DLC was new content released after the game's completion that wasn't content deliberately cut and repackaged as DLC content or crappy remixes, reskins, and RNG crap?

Yeah, those were the days.

Thank you modern day AAA gaming for enhancing all of our patented gaming experiences™
That doesn't make sense. Why would 343 cut out all of this content and release it later for free? The whole thing with people going on about cut content in games like Destiny. Is that they cut the content for more profit. But, it wouldn't make sense to cut content only to release it later for free.

That's because they make money from req packs. The prize pool for some halo tournament came from the money made off req packs, which was something like a million dollars.

A couple maps were shown in pre-game footage but then were never there on release when they should have been. It's not so much cut content to a degree as it is lazy content. 343 didn't finish their fucking game.

That's how they justify the req pack microtransactions

It's cause those maps were actually worth every penny. 343 can't handle DLC properly in their games.

I remember getting all the map packs for Halo 4 and not once did any of those maps ever come up in the normal playlists.

If you're not at the point where golds only give ultra rare or legendary then it is not worth while.

I know you're a big fan of the originals, so what do you think of Halo 5? Haven't heard your thoughts on it yet.
