I really hate what they did with the Tag Database...

[Dr Nick]

I think it would've been much better if they had the tags for every map like the first halo Tags, instead of just tags for the example map.

Maybe they'll come out with another download in a couple of months.



What do you guys think?
Should they have set up the tags on the CD(or a seperate one if it was too big), or are you happy with what they gave us?

[Phalanx_Master]

no i think we should have more tags and bitmaps.

I think the main problem is that they didn't even include many of the tags referenced in the tutorial/help. It would be great if they provided more content to make maps have more variety like more skyboxes, scenery, etc since they forbid the creation of custom models.

Yeah, it's pretty sad to only give users a limited selection of resources to work with and then tell them they can't make their own stuff.

What's more insulting is that Bungie/HG talked about how they really wanted to support user-created content during early comments (right after announcing the game). Well, it looks like they were hypocrites.

I been researching the h2 guerrilla tag structures, they are much more simpler and easier to read than h1 guerrilla's tags. So a tag converter may be something coming in the near future as there is a higher demand for it than there was for CE.

Isn't it funny how Bungie was publicly gungho about the port at the very beginning then come the near year some magical event seemed to have taken place and then they disowned it

News year resolutions maybe?

What? Hundreds of tags had to be extracted from the maps to access those tags. This wasn't possible until over a year after release.

[Dr Nick]

I understand that, but wouldn't they have to make the tags to make the maps?

[bum has knife]

Which tags would you like to see released and which are most important considering the restrictions in the tools?
