It's so funny that people are amazed that worked, isn't it kornman?

On a slightly related note, I still find it funny that people condemn Microsoft for locking down the HEK. They told you that you would be able to create new maps with the HEK and you can create new maps with the HEK; you were never promised the full functionality of the first (rushed) HEK. They did it because they wanted maps to remain in the Halo universe, because with Halo 1 most people spent their time making non-Halo maps. I think they made the right choice, from their point of view, in locking down the HEK.

Personaly I know that alot of my maps are not going to be in the halo universe. I'm still considering the gameplay tactics and abilites of halo's 2 rednering engine, so if that's their reason for locking it down it wasn't worth it.

To them, it was worth it. They are not giving out a free engine to be used for whatever game ideas you may want to explore - they don't want you to prototype your game ideas on their dime. What they do want is you to make new content for their game that will make sense in the scope of their game, especially now that all kinds of people will be getting your map automatically if it is on a public server.

I'm not arguing that it's good or that it is right. What I am saying is that they did make the right business choice and that's what games are - a business. Additionally, no one was "lied to" about the abilities of the HEK; they said you could make new maps and you can make new maps. I'm just laying out some facts, that's all; there are no opinions to disagree with.

Yep. It's standard practice actually; I never sign off on posts of intentional absurdity. You should check the interwebs for confirmation.

Nick

P.S. Don't sign your posts as if you're me. I'll have you banned for imitation!

Absurditys really don't need an identity, do they?

You can ban me... from life, I guess. It's the last thing I have left.
