Pretty sure the new map was on-screen for a second. Looked like one of the Beaver Creek rock walls.

I noticed that too.

1-2 minutes until we see it!

 

[Blueblur1]

YES, Valhalla Remake CONFIRMED!!!

Not nice.

 

[Vire]

YES, Valhalla Remake CONFIRMED!!!

Not funny.

 

[GodlyPerfection]

YES, Valhalla Remake CONFIRMED!!!

Oh you...

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

YES, Valhalla Remake CONFIRMED!!!

That wasn't funny

 

[Pop]

H4 is looking absolutely beautiful.

New MP stuff coming up, I'm so excited!

 

[Slaker117]

I'm so excited!

Also, when is the embargo up again? What sites should I be looking at for coverage?

Looks like midnight if Giant Bomb is to be believed.

 

[Omni]

YES, Valhalla Remake CONFIRMED!!!

I hate you.

 

[Der Flatulator]

Not nice.

Not funny.

Oh you...

That wasn't funny

I hate you.

... I got a good chuckle out of it...

 

[CyReN]

new map = Solace.

New Halo 4 game mode called Dominion (3 bases you capture)

 

[heckfu]

New map is called Solace. Not the remake.

New mode: Dominion. Mode surrounds around fortifying and capturing bases that over time give you weapons and vehicles.

 

[Fracas]

new map = Solace.

Is it the remake?


edit: oh nevermind

 

[Garrett 2U]

Map is "Solace", forerunner space, symmetrical 4v4.

I'm so excited!

Also, when is the embargo up again? What sites should I be looking at for coverage?

Lots of people reporting 12 PST

 

[GodlyPerfection]

What is the environment like?

 

[Dug]

Solace: small scale, competitve focused and it's symmetrical.

 

[Bsigg12]

So spartan rank is gone, solace is the new map looks great. Forerunner based. Dominion is large team base capture mode


Hype has just gone of the rails, this looks amazing.

 

[CyReN]

Is it the remake?


edit: oh nevermind

No and looks sexy, Nexy commentary is on it tomorrow (today)

 

[Vire]

Dominion!

I took pics of Solace, one sec.

 

[Korosenai]

Omg dat new mode. Omg.

The fortress aspect seems really cool.

Also, this diablo 3 skit is absolutely terrible, even though they did use the term poopsock. Sooo bad.

GTTV Halo 4 part 4:

Spoiler

Holmes back from multiplayer talk. New progression system, loadouts, same old same old. NEW MAP: Solis. Small, symmetrical, Forerunner. Jungle-y and overgrown. NEW MODE: Dominion. Team-based. Teams capture bases. Bases become fortified after a set time controlled, weapons then drop. More bases you hold = more powerful your team is.

 

[Fracas]

Conquest?!?!?!?!

 

[wwm0nkey]

The new mode looks amazing

 

[nillapuddin]

PPPSCHCHHHHH!

 

[Trans]

Dominion = Territories?

 

[Merguson]

So.. it's basically Domination..

 

[Genesis Knight]

New game mode (Dominion) looks tight. Reminds me of Battlefront II with some extra mechanics.

 

[Fotos]

So.. it's basically Domination..

not at all...

 

[heckfu]

So.. it's basically Domination..

My favorite part of Domination where it gives you weapons and vehicles over time to help you keep the base.

 

[TS x Massacre]

That was pretty sick, Solace looks awesome, and the new mode seems like it'll be fun!

 

[Der Flatulator]

Omg dat new mode. Omg.

Sounds kind of like the command posts in Brink. I'm excited.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Dominion sounds very awesome! =D

 

[ViewtifulJC]

It's basically Conquest then

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

DOMINATION sounds familiar.

edit. Sounds epic!!!

 

[Blueblur1]

Sounds like a souped-up Territories that's taking cues from other shooters.

Edit: Should've gone to sleep. Barely any new stuff.

 

[Merguson]

My favorite part of Domination where it gives you weapons and vehicles over time to help you keep the base.

So Invasion (Slayer) and Domination mixed together!

EDIT: In which the mode does sound interesting, mind you.

 

[Korosenai]

Lol, i know. The new mode is basically territories. I just like the fortress aspect, which i edited into my post.

Also mma fans, honda housey time on spike.

 

[Bsigg12]

It's basically Conquest then

And you know what? I'm OK with that. Since the maps aren't BF3 sized the combat should be constant and furious.

 

[heckfu]

So Invasion (Slayer) and Domination mixed together!

Which sounds pretty fun!

Also, don't know if it's been shown before, but did yall see the melee kill at the end? MC ripped off the promethean lance from the body and stabbed him with it. Holy god.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

But uh yeah, that was pretty fun, cool stuff all around. Looking forward to this embargo being over.

 

[GodlyPerfection]

Hmmm I wonder what happens if I take the H3 conquest concept and used Dominion as a base gametype... must delve deeper.

 

[Vire]

I really apologize for the absolutely dreadful quality, but I guess it's better than nothing. I was trying to watch and take a pic at the same time.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Bases also build defenses like turrets around it for the longer you hold it.

 

[Tashi]

Dat fuckin Solace Sky Box!

Wow.

But yea, symmetrical, medium sized. Sign me up.

Dominion looks fun. Then Josh was like, "the longer you hold the base, the easier it becomes to defend" we'll just see. My guess is it will play out like fighting a war on multiple fronts. Distribution of resources.

Also, UI throughout looked fucking sexy! Wow.

Everything in the episode looked great. Can't wait. Bravo.

 

[GodlyPerfection]

Bases also build defenses like turrets around it for the longer you hold it.

Now that IS interesting... hmmm I wonder if you can control the weapon drops for each territory individually or if it is global to the gametype. I hope it is on a per territory basis so you can basically control the weight of incentive for each "base".

 

[Trey]

So Invasion (Slayer) and Domination mixed together!

Sounds like it.

Edit: I can imagine a particular few folks won't like the mode because it looks like it'll require a certain kind of map, which was an issue people had with Invasion.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

And you know what? I'm OK with that. Since the maps aren't BF3 sized the combat should be constant and furious.

It should be more dynamic then Invasion, it's not an attack/defense kind of thing, shit can change from minute to minute.

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

I really apologize for the absolutely dreadful quality, but I guess it's better than nothing. I was trying to watch and take a pic at the same time.

Sign it tom morello and we've got a winner!

 

[Wifiplayer13]

Dominion looks awesome. And solace looks so nice. This game just keeps looking better and better. Can't wait for the media blowout tomorrow.
