Erosion, Impact, and Ravine absent from MM?

Just a quick question here… anybody know why Erosion (Ascent and Grifball map variants available in Custom Games), Impact (Relay map variant available in Custom Games), and Ravine (Settler map variant available in Custom Games) are missing from the War Games Matchmaking Playlists?

Has there been any info as to why these have as of now been omitted? I’m just curious because I’ve seen so many people complaining that there isn’t enough maps or that they’re bored of them already, but meanwhile we have three perfectly good maps that are only available in Custom Games for some reason. I’ve ran around on my own a couple of times and the maps seem perfectly good. Obviously the Grifball variant of Erosion won’t be in anything but Grifball, but Ascent could be.

What are your thoughts on the three omissions? Any speculation (or actual statements) as to why they aren’t including in matchmaking?

Cheers!

Soon.

That would be so cool to see more maps, I mean I know the Crimson Map Pack will be coming possibly in December, but come more maps needed!

I know that they obviously will be, I’m just wondering why they were left out in the first place. Like, not in one single playlist? That’s just weird. In all prior Halo games, launch maps were all present in matchmaking playlists.

It’s probably to give the illusion of a map pack release or something when they do put them in. Shame.

Remember Reach??? :slight_smile:
People were mad because of playing Forge-Maps in MM.
They wanted Forge-Maps out of MM.
And now people got what people want.

If they would just call them by their default names and keep them unchanged, that wouldn’t be an issue.

It’s when they start putting a million forged versions in that it doesn’t make any sense. Default setups and names are fine.

reason those map aren’t in MM is because they are meant for forge meaning you will only see them in forge or in custom games
