> In just over a week, the next Halo 5 content drop will be here, and with it comes Big Team Battle in Arena matchmaking, brand-new REQs, and a whole ton of juicy vehicular combat.

This is everything I wanted- I’m just posting this here incase you didn’t know. Once BTB is here, oh, baby… not to mention our vehicles are back, you can’t call it Halo without a guy driving a warthog away before you can hop in :^)

No, but seriously- BTB maps with vehicles is everything- Warzone is fun and all but vehicular combat isn’t really a thing there.

So pumped for BTB!

Ding -Yoink!- it’s too late LMAO

I’m already bored by H5 ;(

Bring It, can’t wait to try it!

Haha, that sucks. It does get a bit stale… maybe BTB will encourage you to try it out and if you like it, bam. Happy.

And glad to see that lots of us are pumped for BTB!

Well forge has actual terrain shaping/editing now, so it’s not too bad.

They are all remakes and inspirations from previous maps, Headlong, Longbow, Burial Grounds, etc made by only the best of Halo forgers. We’ve still got a month until Forge is out and 343i wants to show it off more. Orion was terrible and Pegasus isn’t that much better but these maps? They’ll play like a real map while showcasing the true power of Halo 5’s forge.

SO looking forward to this! Hogs on the map! Lasers, BR starts, CTF in more than just team arena (please please please)… Standoff and Valhalla inspired maps? Yes.

But its not a 343i developed map its just a forge map its like getting excited for uncaged in reach. Its still a forge map at heart Orion itself is just evidence at how forge is then again most of these maps are lackluster compared to Halo:CE to 3.

These are made by dedicated forgers who have been forging since Halo 3, I think Orion and Pegasus were just maps made by someone on the Forge team.

pretty hype, I like big maps so BTB and warzone all day baby

BTB has a special place in my heart

I really don’t care if the maps were made in Forge, I just care that they’re good.

It is a thing, but they’re usually found on the other team.

so hyped for this! Warzone gets old real fast and none of my friends want to play customs…so BTB it is! WOO!

I just hope its good, if not people will rage. BTB is the core Halo experience, I’m already worried about how these “pro” crafted forge maps we’ll be playing on. Zero 343 crafted maps…

Maybe 343 crafted maps will drop with the December update, or maybe a bit later. Who knows

Aren’t they collaborations, between the forgeries and 343 ??

Anyways I’m looking forward to btb team slayer and btb is the core halo mp experience for me. War zones fun and all but I’m getting super tired of the clearing the base melee-fests at the start and the bosses.

At first I thought the enemy npcs were going to have a bigger presence on the map, not just 3 things popping up from time to time. Anyone else think that btb is gonna kill off war zone ??

This is good, especially considering that 343 doesn’t seem to care that Warzone is broken.
