So I have made previous posts concerning Doubles playlist ideas. Just to retouch on these ideas I would like to say that I enjoy the addition of Coliseum and Plaza to the playlists. However I would like to see Riptide and Overgrowth make a comeback, those two maps were super fun to play and really miss playing on them lately. In addition I would also say that a social doubles with community maps would be awesome, essentially just a return of the previous community doubles playlists. Maybe some feedback on changes to overgrowth and riptide to help get them back in the playlist.
I’d be fine with your suggestion, but others may not be.

Do you have any suggestions for changes to the doubles playlists?

I don’t play doubles that often, so I wouldn’t really know how to improve it. For all I know, doubles is fine as it is.

So to be clear, you want those two maps added to doubles and you want a social doubles playlist?

Doubles is one of my favorite playlists… for the most part I agree, at least about riptide. It’s not great, but none of the maps are really except for coliseum. Overgrowth, IMO is the single worst map in the history of video gaming, since text based games on old macs. The only thing I can say about is that when it came up in doubles I was less irritated than when it came up in any other playlist. It’s the only gametype that works on that stupid map I think, as the ridiculously close hallways aren’t so deadly with 2v2.
And, tbh, I wish community doubles would come back as ranked, or at least some arena maps removed in favor of community maps. I loved the community doubles playlist, partly I think because the maps were made from the ground up for 2v2. With the exception of Cobalt (the chill out remix, where everything was blue and gave blue team a slight advantage), I really enjoyed the map variety. Some arena maps flow well for doubles, but some of them are absolute crap - Eden having 4 power weapons is horrible IMO, and empire isn’t much better. Failing bringing back community doubles, I’d like to see the arena maps refreshed for doubles - completely new power weapons and placements I think would be much preferable to just the same layout as arena minus a clip or too.
TL;DR: I love doubles as a ranked playlist. I loved community doubles. I think they should have a love child playlist with ranked community maps. I love doubles (period)

Doubles is awesome and it’s defiently my favorite playlists. However I don’t the community maps would be able to work in ranked without a lot of changes and testing first. Eden is pretty bad as far as power weapons go. I would be fine with removing rockets and Hydra from that map. I like empire and how it plays I don’t think a whole a lot of change is required there except removing smg.

Ok, well I’d say I’m OK with riptide going in IF invis is on the map bottom mid. Otherwise that map would be terrible for doubles. Would be too easy to hold blue room. Overgrowth I think isn’t a good Doubles map at all. Heck, it’s not a very good map period. It just doesn’t doesn’t flow well. Weapon placements are bad, over half the map isn’t even used. I just think nothing can save that map no matter what you change.
To me the Biggest issues with Doubles right now is the sniper still has 8 shots which is ridiculous!!! And Eden has way too many power weapons, but maybe it would play better if ammo amounts were right. Everything should be half of what ammo amounts are from 4-4 slayer. It’s pretty simple really.
I’m not opposed to a social doubles playlist but I don’t really think it’s necessary. Doubles has always been a pretty competitive Playlist. If you enjoy it but aren’t competitive, odds are you don’t play much so you most likely won’t be that great either, which means you shouldn’t be playing against players that are that great either. So the games should be pretty fair. Like I said, I’m not opposed to a social doubles playlist but I don’t think it’s necessary. Also what would you take away to add it? That’s the other problem. You don’t want a whole bunch of playlists either because the population would be so scattered. People don’t seem to understand this. Yes 343I could add X more playlists but they would be maintaining that many more which IMO would lead to even worst servers. Only makes sense really. It’s harder to maintain things the more you have of something right. I can’t help but think this is ONE of the reasons why the dedicated servers are so much worse now compared to what they were the first few months Halo 5 was out.
Also a lot of people don’t like forge maps as they don’t look that great. Hence 343I got ride of them from doubles. Yes forge is getting better but it’s still not near the level of developer made Maps. I’m not saying I care but a lot of people do. I remember seeing and still see a lot of threads about people complaining about Forge Maps in playlists. Just ask BTB fans about that. Most aren’t please about it.
I’m just glad Doubles is finally in lol and here to stay (I hope) I still can’t believe it took this long to get doubles in to begin with.

I like triple team lol I wouldn’t mind seeing 4 teams of two tried at some point too. For me it would be shotty snipers. Anyone who loves snipers plays ranked team snipers. Not shotty snipers (I know a lot of people who love team snipers lol)

Triple team was one of my favorites too… ever since halo 3 I have a completely unexplainable love for multi team, and that first attempt by 343 at putting 3 teams of 3 on BTB maps was the worst thing they’ve done except for overgrowth. Overgrowth, I have to agree with you, Ian beyond redemption. It’s the single worst experience I’ve ever had in a video game, it’s not competitive, it promotes Spartans charging (which should be a criminal offense), power weapons are bad, weapon layouts in general are bad, invis too close to railgun… oh and spawns are horrible as well.
Btw, I liked OPs suggestion to remove rockets and hydra from Eden, that might make that map worth a -Yoink- for doubles… whoever thought 4 power weapons for 2v2 was acceptable should be demoted, immediately. I agree that social doubles isn’t necessary… I for one love forge maps because some people are super talented and IMO there are several that are superior to dev maps. Maybe not in terms of aesthetics, but that’s just the limitations of the system, not the forgers. Some of those maps made for doubles are / were excellent, and with testing / tuning i believe could be just as competitive as dev maps. Just one mans opinoon tho!
I love playing doubles. It’s pretty much all I play these days on halo 5. I like the maps currently but more variety is always good. Most of the community maps were great and I’d be happy to see them return.
