BTB map, New forge pieces.

Okay, ive been looking at the latest update and looking at each pictures of the maps… and the first 2 maps look… horrible to me to be honest… they really do… but im going to go through some of the forge pieces that stood out to me that made me either excited, or im interested in and theres some good ones!

First map: Deadlock/Standoff

The satellite dish.
Small railings around the dish, some fully covered with panels, others just the railings.

Basin/Valhalla

The flap type barriers on the base angled in one direction more then the other. (looks very interesting and exciting to me!)
New antenna on top of the base.

Guillotine/Headlong
This one im gonna actually talk more about because theres so much interesting and amazing stuff in this map!

-The crane, This isnt like how we used to make cranes with the walkway piece, this genuinely looks like a crane, and the detailing on it and stuff makes me so excited cos theres so much possibilities with this one piece!
-Warthog poster, For the first time it looks like we’ll be able to have posters of some kind and one with the famous golden warthog like in the classic map!
-Just infront of the warthog poster theres a round sign, this is a separate piece and theres also another sign of some kind on the right hand side thats more longer, this shows we have fluorescent signs now in forge, again another exciting new piece!
-Where the bridge is theres long triangular pieces, we’ve never seen pieces like that before, to me they look interesting, especially how psycho has used them on bridges, i think alot of people will be using that sort of piece for bridges.
-Cars. This is probably the most exciting, we finally have cars. an aesthetic piece thats a car that we can put down, now thats amazing but it makes you wonder what other vehicles we’ll be able to put down, whether it’ll be the car from Reach, the forklift again, the lorry again, some of the stationary vehicles from H5… alot of possibilities!
-Road pieces, the road piece actually has white dashes like a real road, something quite a few people have wanted for a while, and i know when you made a street map before, it always looked good but you could never distinguish the road to a path or something, looked very plain, so this is very interesting!
-The road piece on the crane, if you look you have the yellow, claw if you like… thats holding the road piece, but i noticed a cable going up from that and it looks very small, usually we had to do it by using satellite pieces but now it looks like we genuinely have a cable… again, alot of possibilities for this!
-Curved edge piece, not the most incredible thing in the world, but on the main building where the crane is, on the right of it theres a piece which has all right angle except one corner which is a curved corner, again, i can think of a few interesting ways to use this.
-At the back of the map, on the wall theres some pieces which stick out, that are kind of sloped, i was looking at them and they do look very interesting, they look really aesthetically nice…

Recurve/Longbow
-Cyclinder pieces, look nice with aesthetically.
-More railings.
-Stairs.
-The walkway with the curved cover, pieces used for that look interesting!
-Energy windows
-Circular roof pieces and ground base pieces
-Towards the top right, if you look carefully, youll see some wire, bars almost, they come down and curve to the right, almost look like a cable car, they look very very interesting!
-Just a small thing, the trees actually have a snow texture, rather then just green, so hopefully the vehicles will be the same!
-A light, If you look at the center, move over to the right to the building with the round pieces on top and look just down a little to where that white square is, it could be anything but to me, that looks like a light… and we do know that there will be a few lights in the game.

Although i dont like the style of the standoff and especially the valhalla, i love some of the new forge pieces that we’ve had a look at now and i cant wait to see what else will be added and it makes me think more and more that it could be possible there will be a crashed pelican for aesthetics! especially now we’ve seen we can put down cars!
Anyway, please do comment and discuss, and if you find anything else please let me know and ill add it to the list!

oh please no, dont say they have remade Valhalla?
Bloodgulch, coag, valhalla, ragnarok are the worse BTB maps in Halo.

Standoff, Headlong and Longbow however are all great maps

edit: just saw the screenshots, theyre mostly inspired by the original maps, thats good then, hopefully Basin won’t be as terrible as the previous versions of that map

Tried… honestly its a pathetic attempt…
I admit headlong and longbow do look very well made!
Stand off… looks like it has potential, the valhalla ‘inspired’ map… just looks horrible! it really really does… dont know what was going through there mind when they made that…
