iBotPeaches Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Following last weeks update on Bungie, We’re still here supporting Halo: Reach until Microsoft takes the reins. As phases of the transition (which is already underway) unfold we’ll continue to work with Microsoft and 343 Industries to ensure the handoff requires as little brainpower from you as possible, and as we nail down significant dates we’ll hammer home your expectations in kind. Rest assured all sides are working diligently to make sure the transition experience is as awesome as possible. It seems they've allowed 343 to produce the next mappack known as the Defiant Mappack. This allows them to "test drive" the engine and what not before they really flesh out their next Halo game. Much like Bungie released "Vidoc's" of their products. 343 has done the same. Take a look at the new team of Halo. http://ibotmodz.net/gaming_videos/_/xbox360/halo-reach-behind-the-scenes-defiant-map-pack-r6 View full story

gruntmods Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 I don`t see Certain Affinity staying around long, as they are a 3rd party developer. On a side note, they also made the blastacular map pack for halo 2 (Tombstone, Desolation)

On a side note, they also made the blastacular map pack for halo 2 (Tombstone, Desolation)The fact that they developed the Blastacular map pack brings down my respect level for them. Hang 'Em High should have never been remade for Halo 2 despite the pleas that everyone always made. Desolation is alright, but was put into matchmaking terribly and never fixed because Bungie "lost the keys to matchmaking" as Shishka put it. Desolation with SMG starts was always terrible because there were only 2 BR's on the map. When it was BR start it was an alright map.
