This map for 4v4 is basically unplayable. It becomes vehicle fest between the OP ghost and warthog. Not to mention 2 snipers on the map
I really want to like this map…has the look of a Halo 3 map, but just plays soooo poorly currently
Nothing to do with the vehicles, your most likely playing the game wrong, I got 27 kills and 11 deaths last time i played Behemoth and I didn’t use one vehicle. Use the weapons to your advantage
There is a grappling hook and electric grenades under your base. Additionally to the back left is a Shock Rifle on either teams side. There is also a Ravager in the middle of the map. All great to take down vehicles.
Half the time it’s not a Sniper in the middle either, it’s two Skewers which are also great anti-vehicle weaponry.
I agree the Ghost is strong in this game (very quick without even boosting), but even without picking up things on the map the Infinite Warthog is pretty weak.
The vehicle balance is very strange in this game but I’m inclined to agree with the other posters here. There are so many anti vehicle weapons–the snipe included. Hard to see the vehicles as oppressive.
I do think the double sniper or double skewer is bad weapon placement on that map though. 2 snipers doesn’t work with AR starts very well–it’d be better with BRs. And I just think it would be more interesting to have a different power weapon left and right. Or maybe put camo and os on each side and skewer or rockets bottom mid.
I don’t think you guys have been playing the map enough. Every game it’s extreme lop sided scores. Whether I’m winning big, or losing big, the games are never close. I’ve been playing competitive halo since H2 and something is 100% off with the balance of this map.
Maybe its a little lop sided for slayer matches for you but I have had plenty of CTF matches being really close. I like the idea of the vehicles being power weapons. Behemoth always has the shock grenades and shock rifle to deal with the vehicles if the driver is killing it.
Personally think it has a great map design.
