I unquestionably want a map pack for Halo CEA. What i would want is a remade Sidewinder with new weather effects similar to the Prisoner effects. A remade Zanzibar/Last resort or any map suitable for Invasion. Even though the maps for Halo CEA are the most masterly crafted maps i’ve seen in any Halo.
Last but my favourite, a Firefight map taking place where Assault on Control room and Two betrayals are located. The reason for this is it can have two varients one during the night and one during the day. This is also the only campaign mission i can think of which would be a great fit if Flood and Sentinels joined the firefight category with Covenant and UNSC.
Just asking, did Halo CEA not come with your favourite map(s)? If so do you want it/them in a map pack after Halo CEA’s realease?
Turf, Gemini and Backwash would probably be the maps I’d choose to come with such a map pack. I’d also like to see a Firefight map set on a UNSC ship, like the Pillar of Autumn, and I’d like to make it unique in it’s own way. For example, as seen in Halo CE, 343i could make it so you can seal off Covenant reinforcements with the blast doors for a short period of time.

Backwash?? are you kidding me, thats the worst halo map of all time. Remake some halo 3 greats, pit narrows gurdian construct, some lockout some midship, thatd be siick.

I quite enjoyed it back in my split screen days. I guess we share a different opinion. And I’m sure they said something about they wouldn’t remake Halo 3 maps because Halo 3 can still be played online, but still I wouldn’t mind a Guardian remake or Narrows either.
Given that there is another year between Anniversary and Halo 4 I’d be happy to see another one or two using some of the other Halo:CE maps.
I think it would be cool if there was one with original Xbox maps that included:
Rat Race
Boarding Action
Derelict
Chiron TL-34
Wizard
And one with the remaining PC maps:
Death Island
Danger Canyon
Infinity
Ice Fields
Gephyrophobia
That said it might work better if the packs were a mix of the two groups. They could also throw in a Firefight map.
> good lord. the game’s not even out and we’re already talking map packs?? i want the game first.
lol same, plus we must wait and see if the possibility of new content is even possible, as both sales of HCEA and time that can be devoted away from Halo 4 are deciding factors. It is more IF than WHEN we are getting new Reach content.
However, if I had to say what I would want in a pack, I would want:
Remake of a map (possibly from Halo 2 or 3).
Invasion map with a large Forge pallet (new stuff; no Forge World stuff) due to lack of Invasion maps and more areas to forge would be nice.
Firefight map that takes place from a previous Halo’s campaign (end of 343 Guilty Spark or somewhere in the Library would be nice, but anything would do).
This offers a bit for everyone, and therefore can attract quite a bit of players due to the selection.
But they’re already making an “Anniversary” map pack for CE. It’s called Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, which contains the most popular maps from Halo 1 and a fan-favourite from Halo 2. If yours isn’t on the list, it’s because nobody else likes it.
The FF Map doesn’t have to be based on Halo: CE. It could be on any of the Halo Trilogy.
Halo 2: The first part of Outskirts.
Halo 3: Hangar on Crow’s Nest.

I guarentee that something like this is already planned, look at the maps they left out.
Who remakes Combat Evolved and leaves out fracking Sidewinder?
We’ve been waiting ten years to play Combat Evolved on Live. Halo 2 deserves it’s own treatment, and Halo 3 still works on live, so neither game has any place in this remake.

Untrue. The HCEA maps were picked based on players wanting more maps that were great for Slayer. In fact, during Halofest it was mentioned that many maps were looked into, and one map that was specified was Terminal due to the fact that the map, while most would see as an awesome edition to the list, was left out due to being meant for one-sided objectives than Slayer. Other maps were mentioned, but again were probably left out for one reason or another.
Not every map is worth a remake, but a lot of them are for different reasons depending on the map.

Ha ha ha ha ha ya, nobody who played CE ever liked Sidewinder or Chill Out. Wow.
It’s one of the reasons I still play Halo PC nearly 8 years after I started
