If there's no way to port old game types...

In Response To: Re: Weapon tuning, a la Reach/H4. Speaking of... (FyreWulff)

: I was thinking of this, but I guess depends on how much they want to alter
: the Halo 3 gametype format.

: At this point I'm still expecting Halo 3 to have the OLN for Forge variants.

then keeping binary compatibility or making changes shouldn't be an issue. Of course, H3 didn't use a monolithic/scripted multiplayer engine (CTF, KOTH, were all hard coded and ran under different 'game engines'), so it really wouldn't be a sort of "copy and paste" job from the implementations they did for Reach/H4. Of course, it was also an external studio who worked on the H3+ XBO ports (the same one who ported Spartan Assault from what I understand). If 343i didn't explicitly say "Do this. Do it naow." then it might not have even been considered.
