So my favorite game mode in halo 5 is warzone and imo I think the only thing im not to crazy about is the theme of every map being human themed (Even though I love the aesthetic).
So I wanted to throw some covenant themed ideas for a warzone map that would be ideal both to the core warzone gameplay and functionality while breakinh away from the same base layouts and changing it up.
So the basic idea I have starts with the area where the map is set in. I imagine an unknown solar system with some alien worlds in the skybox and being set on some massive covie ship with covie buildings, air pads and towers filling the map. The two home bases are replaced with two krakens docked there. Each teams “kraken” core functions the same as a normal home core. Cap all 3 bases to shut down base defenses then destroy the core, like in the campaign.
Then, instead of armories, change them to generator rooms or something. Middle base is kinda like the spire from Reach or like some sort of large air tower.
Then only have covie themed bosses on the map. No Prometheans. Make use of all those banshee squads, spec ops elites, Grunt goblins, patrol squads, Tankmasters and maybe, as an added enemy for chaos, add suicide grunts on occasion around the map to keep players on their toes.
Anything else you guys think would be a cool addition or is there something you would change?
Any other ideas and/or themes for future maps you guys want to talk about is welcome.
