did they keep the same map designer?

does anyone know anything about the map designer for halo 4? his maps are pretty…terrible.

EDIT: yes, i know this is my opinion - it’s why i said it. does anyone else feel the same? i’m just not sure any of the maps on right now are in the same class as some of the ones we’ve seen in previous halo games.

Thats your opinion, not a fact. I personally like adrift, Abandon, Exile, Meltdown and Haven.
Just because you do not like it, does not mean your opinion is fact.

woah sorry man didn’t mean to imply that my opinion needed to be taken as fact. just stating my own perspective. we can have a conversation, can’t we?

From what I remember reading, yes, 343i kept the same map designer(s). Those designers being; Certain Affinity.

The maps in Halo 4 are 1,000,000,002,00x better than Reach maps. They are even (IMO) better than Halo 3 maps. They still don’t touch the awesome simplistic arena style maps of CE or H2 but they are good. Haven is a boss map that I would put in my top 5 easily. I don’t even care that it gets voted all the time. If Haven was the only map in the game I’d almost be fine with it. BTB maps in this game are a BTB players wet dream. Ragnarok is the only one I dislike.

complex and haven are one of the worst maps on halo history and that’s because active camo and pv make them really bad

Ragnarok is the only good one.

I always choose that one and go for the Sniper Immediately… If I actually try (which I do most of the time when playing that map) I could easily get over 20 kills and less than 5 deaths…

I miss the Blood Gulch variant of the Forge World. Few things are as epic as having 16 players charging at each other, ghosts whizzing past as wraith mortars fly overhead.

I do enjoy the maps we have, just wish they would use Forge a little…they don’t even have the three maps that are on disc in MM. For slayer and SWAT, I could really go for a smaller map. Cold Storage, Lockout, Guardian, etc. They could even block off sections of Forge maps/Crimson maps to make smaller slayer variant maps.

Maybe someday…
