The Think Twice Public Beta has concluded. On behalf of the four of us, we thank all of you who participated in testing and posted feedback in this thread. Your comments helped the map nearly reach perfection. Our refined and polished design is now available for all to download and share. However, a map is never finished, so this thread will continue to serve as the feedback thread for Think Twice. Thanks again for all of your support.
To view the list of changes from Beta to now, as well as new videos, please see [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=58880594&postRepeater1-p=28#59369861]this post[/url].

[i]Think Twice[/i] is a simple, yet innovative competitive multiplayer map created by Sven Nietzsche, GodlyPerfection, Jonzorz 124, and myself. The public beta ran from April 11th 2011 to April 23rd 2011. We received constructive and profound feedback from many of the testers, which was invaluable in fine-tuning the map. We humbly thank all of the participants. Your comments have refined the map and made it much better.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Jonzorz_124 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FabFubar [/quote] While your opinion is not wholly unique on the matter, I can't help but notice that your account hasn't played Reach since March 11. If this is true and you haven't actually played the map yet, then the only "experience" you have is with the videos we have rendered. This lack of play experience leads me to believe your conclusion on the map is premature. Though on the other hand, if you have played the map and continue to reach that conclusion I would like to see the videos of those games if that is possible. =) Thank you for feedback. [/quote] Well, you are completely right about the fact I can't give a 100% trustworthy and valid opinion on the map, since I based it completely on two rendered matches played. I should have added that to my post... What I stated wasn't a conclusion, it was my opinion on it. A premature one, like you said, because I was going to give the map a chance anyways. Don't get me wrong; I don't think this is a bad map. It's better than all my attempts on maps so far, that's for sure :p I'm sure it is a good map, I'm just not sure if I could see it work for capture the flag for instance. You can't know everything without playing it yourself, but usually I have a better understanding of a battlefield when reviewing video material than when I am playing. (films of my own, that is. I always think "I should have done that and I would have come out on top") I said REviewing, not viewing. I agree you only get half the picture when you watch video material. You get the other half from playing it yourself. Right now I'm in my exam period, and before that I also took a break from Reach. (some stressful matches are to blame) That's why it's been almost two months since my last Halo multiplayer match. But I assure you, I will play Reach again and I have already clicked the download button for Think Twice. I was gonna check it out anyway, it seems pretty kewl anyway. I was just having doubts about it being fit for matchmaking. And I will get back to you once i tried it out. However, I'm more of a lone wolf and barely have friends on matchmaking (:/) so odds are slim of me ever playing a custom match on it. (and it looks awesome for custom matches!)
