Speaking for myself only, I love what Frank said in this update.
I have faith in 343 and i also have forgiveness for the small mistakes they've made.

I'm happy to hear him acknowledge how valuable the Halo community is to them and I'm excited for what the future holds.
Things may not happen as fast as our hyperactive A.D.D. gamer brains would like, but I think we should all rest assured that this company knows what they hold in their hands and knows that their community and its opinions are valuable to them.

 

Needs moar filesharez! I wonder if the Forge Maps will be solely ones made by 343 and how good they'll be? Also I'm super excited about the new Spartan Ops coming out and Team Doubles playlist

 

They are made by the community, at least in part. I dont know the extend of how many they took, but I know they were on the lookout for smaller maps not too long ago at all.

 

Mind Intake OVERLOAD cant keep up......

 

Definitely not the bulletin I've been waiting for... Nothing about adding in the file browser functionality that's missing from the game, nothing about adding in gametypes and gametype options we don't have but should have, nothing about that supposed forge fix that Certain Affinity talked about, although they did mention the title update that's coming out in February. I hope that's a big title update that includes full file browser functioning.

 

Forge map hopper.... yay? I swear, the better pick some god damned good maps this time. Halo 4's map choices were abysmal. And if I get snuffed and don't make a single map into MM because I'm a "bad person", or because an ass hate Cartographer opposes them because of a personal bias against me, I might just rage.

Diplomacy. Apparently, it's a thing. And I'm actually pretty excited about the Halo 4 Forge hopper. I actually get really excited about them. It's like a map pack that you can judge and hate freely, or praise endlessly. The chance of either is great!
