The maps. They are terrible. Why would you load community maps with terrible spawns and weapon placement in a competitive mode? WHY!?
At the start of every game the map control gets completely screwed because the teams spawn right next to power weapons. Also, there is WAY TOO MUCH high ground. On one of the maps one team spawns right next to an overshield and the sniper. It’s just camp camp camp the high ground from there. Between terrible spawns, too much high ground to camp and active camo being the most OP power up in the game, this mode just sucks. Also, having the spawns so close to weapons and pickups makes it a lot harder than it should be to learn placement because they aren’t centrally located.
Agreed, a majority of these maps are pretty bad. Like, who in their right mind would put all the power ups in one map?
Agreed, not to mention 75% of the time you end up with the horrible spawn points
The people who made these maps put a lot of time and care into them. Not everyone is going to agree with them but there’s no reason to call their work “terrible”.

Unless it’s terrible. Which it is.
I was so happy to finally see Double, then I play on Purple Yonk and Yonk Prison. Then I ask my self. 343 try to show us how it’s hard to create a map for Halo 5 or they just don’t care and take the random map ? No 1 single Good map, 3-4 average (really average) and 2 most terrible map (I know it’s take some time to create it) some artist create some staf and it’s bad, so critic shouldn’t be kind and not representatif. And I will say sorry but this 2 are so Bad, that I will wait another 4 months before I get finally Double with better maps may be.
I like the maps. The problem is having all four power ups on a map like Optic Prison. Makes for terrible gameplay.
The maps are fairly interesting and some have glaring issues like the assortment of power ups on optic prison, but the maps for the most part are well made.
Well it isn’t really a competitive playlist. Even if it was competitive in prior titles, it is meant as a casual playlist this time around. No ranking is done in that playlist, so I think it may be due to that. Plus seeing community maps is always a nice thing to see in playlists, oh and to save yourself from pain in the future if it says “Community” before the gamemode it usually implies that they are Forged maps by the community. So you might wish to avoid those playlists specifically.
I don’t understand why some maps have two armor abilities or two power weapons, and every map has at least one of each. That means one team can always have an advantage after spawn. Even worse when maps such as hangar have Camo, OS, Sniper, and Hydra. With red spawning next to OS and sniper, which, in my opinion, is better than camo and hydra.
I didn’t play more than 10 matches, but I liked the maps.
Welcome to Halo 5 and 343. Get used to the sub-par…everything.
