Out of all the multiplayer maps of the Halo series, the map Blood Gulch/Coagulation is without a doubt THE signature map for Halo.
While it was nice for Bungie to put Hemorrhage into Forge World, the theme of the map didn’t give it the nostalgic feeling like other remade maps have. Hemorrhage/Forge World had a typical Forerunner installation look. While the look is nice, it didn’t fit Blood Gulch.
I hope that 343i has Blood Gulch/Coagulation return in Halo 4, but with it’s classic theme. Though I wouldn’t mind a shield world skybox to replace the Halo skybox.
I wish people would stop using words like “must” and “need” in their title (and I really wish they would stop capitalising them). It would be so much nicer to read a thread entitled, “I would like to see Blood Gulch return in Halo 4”.
It may be a signature map, but it doesn’t need to return. I would rather Valhalla return in Halo 4. That was a great map.
> It may be a signature map, but it doesn’t need to return. I would rather Valhalla return in Halo 4. That was a great map.
Hell yeah…
Valhalla was a good map, but Blood Gulch is still better. Saying that it doesn’t have to return is like saying that the Halo theme shouldn’t return.
> It may be a signature map, but it doesn’t need to return.
Agreed, also, it was Bungie’s signature map, this time around, lets shut up, and stop telling 343i what they need to do, let 343i make their own signature map. I’m all for Map remakes, but for now, let’s keep the map remakes to maps that don’t have Xbox LIVE counter parts/remakes. But Blood Gulch has been remade twice already, and Valhalla was based off of the idea around Blood Gulch, a box canyon with two bases, people love a simple map with two bases in a box canyon.
In all honesty- Blood gulch is a horrible map. GO play on Hemmorhage- youll realize why nobody like Coagulation on Halo 2, or why there are no Blood gulch games on Halo PC. The only reason why people like it, is because of RvB. The signature Halo map too me, is definitely Zanzibar. Anyone who’s seen Halo know’s it, and it defines what Halo is.

I agree, I HATE Bloodgultch also. Zanzibar is where it’s at and if ANY map would have to return it would be that. 2 Flag on that map was my best memory on Halo.
Vanhalla was a very altered version of Blood Gulch (2 bases, lots of land in between, hallways and caves in rock structures). Not a re-make, though.
And while I agree that Blood Gulch was one of the most popular and like-able Halo maps to date, I highly doubt 343i will consider implementing the exact map into Halo 4 multiplayer.

That’s not 100% true, the Custom Edition side of the Halo PC, there are some times a few Blood Gulch games, and tons of Blood gulch mods.
It can’t be all that difficult to make a new map that’s based on the same premise; that is, a roughly symmetrical canyon with a base at either end. The basic layout of Valhalla wasn’t all that different from that of Blood Gulch, but it felt like a brand new map.
I just want new maps. I am tired of Coag/BG/Hem.

Exactly.
I’ve had enough with Blood Gulch and it’s remakes.
I really hope we get new maps built from scratch and no remakes at all.

All I want is a Guardian remake. I don’t even need anything else.
I get a rush of nostalgia every time hemorrhage loads, what are you taking about hemorrhage =/= gulch but coag does?
Also, YES. Gulch is to halo as pallet town is to pokemon.

see, all four of these people don’t really want another Blood Gulch, so I think it’s now time to see Blood Gulch put to bed, and see a new map.

Valhalla beats Blood Gulch any day of the week. Still plenty of room for vehicles and infantry alike to maneuver, but there’s actually cover to boot!

Oh, yes, how wrong of them to discuss their opinions in a discussion forum. Such foolish, terrible people!
