Basin power weapon galore

I’ve just started playing BTB and CTF on Basin quickly escelated into a powerweapon sausagefest. Thing is, the Sniper Rifles, Incineration Cannon and other minor powerweapons respawn regardless of whether the in use weapon is out of ammo or has de-spawned.
Our game quickly devolved into the other team occupying the centre base with multiple Sniper Rifles spawn killing us and used the other power weapons to keep us at bay.

Can’t spawn times for these weapons be increased?

So you played one game and already started to complain?

wow. This is the problem with this community.

Sorry for providing feedback?

The rest of the maps played just fine, except for some spawn issues.

Look at this guy, getting paid to agree. Jk

We still managed to win the CTF 1-0 after a quick capture at the beginning. But this was my least fun halo game since the release. Enemies going +30 etc because of spawnkilling with the sniper and spawning in the open, I never felt so bad.

Exactly this

Playing this map for a couple of days now hasn’t made my opinion of it any better, it wasn’t a one time thing.
Every game, be it CTF or Strongholds it turns into Sniping from the middle tower. They might as well just spawn you with Sniper Rifles…
And please for the love of god fix the spawns, if I get sniped 1 second after spawning I don’t want to be spawned in the exact same location after 10 seconds. Which brings me to my next point, which is cover.
If we get handed BR’s at spawn and get a Sniper Rifle every 3 minutes you might want to think about placing some more cover in and around spawns at least. This isn’t just a problem with Basin but also with Deadlock (excluding the Sniper but replace that with the DMR here). I wonder what the playtesters and forgers thought when they put spawn points in open areas in which you can get shot immediatly from just about anywhere in the map. These spawnpoints definetly need to be moved or get some more cover pieces, even if it’s just a tree.

Sorry for my rant, I really do enjoy Halo 5, but things like this really shouldn’t have made it through playtesting.

basin is the worst btb map imo

Power weapons do spawn too often. There can be four or more snipers on a map at one time. Some of the maps make vehicle use too dangerous.

I used to keep track of how many snipers were on the field which would determine which routes I’d take. Doesn’t work anymore.

One game I took down 2 Snipers and got shot by a third, I never even think about going on a Warthog anymore on this map :confused:

It’s a valid point, I’ve played several games with this problem where the game is just power weapon spam. Can’t expect people to play 10-20 matches just to notice 1 major flaw.

The power weapons could definitely get a longer respawn option. They seem to appear too quickly.
