Bungie annonuces three maps for Halo: ODST

[Queasy]

Bungie has announced three maps as part of their Bungie Day today.

Heretic is a remake of the Halo 2 arena "Midship" which takes place on the Covenant ship Pious Inquisitor.

Citadel is a new map set on a Forerunner stronghold (where have we seen this before?) and features a symmetrical map.

Longshore is set on the port at Old Mombasa from Halo 3 and is filled with "industrial buildings, elevated walks, and open inlets".

Looking at these maps actually gives me a hankering to go play some Halo 3 multiplayer. I'm sure that hankering will die after a couple of matches of getting owned by 12 year olds...

man, halo 3 is love & hate for me. perfectly balanced game with horrible netcode, lag or whatever the hell you want to call it. 4/5 team slayer games I play (I'm a 37) are always determined by who isn't lagging the fuck out. the KD ratios between players should be similar @ this rank, but almost every game the KD ratios are like +12.+8,0,-6,0,-2.-6.-12. Then I'll play the same guy who got +12 that game in the next game & I'll rape him every time, no contest.

I do NOT ever see this on PC multiplayer games. I think the console shooters hide the lag behind some sort of output lag or something. I will frequently kill my opponent on my screen, but I'll end up losing the fight. Frustrating to hell. I don't see a point of playing competitively if the games are determined by host & connection quality relative to the host.
