  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Malice 514 No one cares about your one-liners. You have no authority other than what you make obvious by your actions. So apparently you have none. You completely misinterpretted what I said and inadvertently proved my point. Re-read my post, I said a "separate project." You showing that it isn't Bungie making the new project ONLY UNDERSCORES EVEN MORE HOW RIDICULOUS IT IS FOR BUNGIE TO INCLUDE HALO 3'S MAPS ON A GAME WHICH IS MADE BY ENSEMBLE STUDIOS, DUMBA$$. What education do you have? If you are going to insult my intelligence then don't be hypocritical while doing it, clown.[/quote]I can agree on that first bit, i don't have authority, I just found your post more interesting than the other one-sentence posts and decided to comment on it with my own. As far as the "Get educated" bit goes, I meant no insult to your education, I'm sure you are well-informed, I'm just going on what I could read, which was someone angry at Bungie, for a separate project. I can agree that I assumed too much on that part, but again, just going on what I had, so with that thank you for clearing the air. On another note, it [i]does[/i] seem odd to pack another developer's game with content for your own, especially when Halo Wars already looks to be a great RTS game. It seems unnecessary to push people to buy it and help Ensemble. I don't quite think the maps are being packed with the game to help sales. I can't say for 100%, but I'd bet a well-acclaimed developer, such as Ensemble, who created the popular Age of Empires, should have no trouble selling this game. It doesn't look like the game to end all games, but it certainly looks like one of the top RTS games that will have come out on 360, perhaps its controls will help shape the way for future RTS games on platforms. Perhaps, if people had to choose between what to spend their hard-earned money on; maps for a game you already enjoy, versus a game you've never played before, many people might play it safe and stick with something that will be cheaper and perhaps provide more hours of fun. I can't say for certain, but re-reading your post, I can see why you would be angered or outraged at the decision. Rather than make people choose, that choice is being taken from the public. Maybe Bungie will release the maps by themselves soon after. We still have some time between now and then, so we'll just have to see what they say... [Edited on 01.18.2009 10:52 PM PST]
